  • Patent number: 11929841
    Abstract: In some examples, a computing device can include a processor resource and a non-transitory memory resource storing machine-readable instructions stored thereon that, when executed, cause the processor resource to: activate a silent mode for the computing device when a videoconference is initiated, set a threshold volume and designated frequency range for the computing device, deactivate the silent mode for the computing device when a microphone associated with the computing device receives a sound that exceeds the threshold volume and is within the designated frequency range, send the received sound to other users of the videoconference, and activate the silent mode for the computing device when the computing device stops receiving the sound.

  • Patent number: 10878942
    Abstract: A perpetual bioinformatics and virtual colorimeter expert system platform is disclosed to remotely measure dermal and epidermal properties with precision and to enhance decision-making. Some embodiments of the system provide for virtual tristimulus colorimetry, wherein a capture device captures one or more dermal images of one or more skin area of a user. A color grid includes one or more permutations of a plurality of recorded predetermined colors. A scale of the color grid is recorded as being printed or projected at a predetermined size. Application of the virtual tristimulus colorimeter to one of the images is performed. As a result of this application the image is calibrated according to the virtual tristimulus colorimeter. In some embodiments the capture device may include a smartphone camera, interactive with the virtual tristimulus colorimeter smartphone application.
