  • Patent number: 11790107
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for platforms for managing database content distribution. In some implementations, a system stores a data set comprising monitoring data collected from remote devices. The system receives a data sharing request, and in response to the data sharing request generates a data sharing record that specifies a data sharing recipient, a portion of the data set to be shared, and a limited set of operations that can be performed using the shared portion of the data set. The system configures a customized portal for the data sharing recipient based on the data sharing record, wherein the customized portal is configured to provide access limited to the shared portion of the data set with functionality limited to the limited set of operations. The system provides the data sharing recipient access to the customized portal.

  • Patent number: 11762466
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for measuring and identifying real-world tremors in order to calculate and display an anti-tremor in a virtual reality world. A system may identify a tremor in a body part, such as hands, and measure the tremor movement from, e.g., body sensors, to calculate an opposite movement and animate virtual hands performing the reverse tremor motion. Depicting inverse motions, such as an anti-tremor, may be used in a few ways to therapeutically train and exercise patients to better control their tremors. Providing a visual cue may help a patient interrupt the movement, as well as provide possibilities for therapy or training muscle memory and stimulating nerve and neuron recovery. By displaying an anti-tremor with virtual hands, a VR system may be used to help train or exercise body parts experiencing tremors.

  • Patent number: 11586276
    Abstract: A system for generating complementary data for a visual display that includes one or plurality of wearable sensors that collect tracking data for a users position, orientation, and movement. The sensor(s) are in communication with at least one processor that may be configured to receive tracking data, identify missing tracking data, generate complementary data to substitute for missing tracking data, generate a 3D model comprised of tracking data and complementary data, and communicate the 3D model to a display. Complementary tracking data may be generated by comparison to a key pose library, by comparison to past tracking data, or by inverse kinematics.

  • Patent number: 11492787
    Abstract: A water control system including a showerhead and a tub faucet. The faucet has a valve configured to automatically restrict fluid flow through the faucet and direct fluid to the showerhead as a function of a parameter, such as a predetermined water temperature. The faucet has many modes of operation, including a Reset Mode, an Auto-Divert Mode, a Bypass Mode, and a Cold Mode. A flow control device generates minimal back-pressure when in the Reset Mode such that water does not undesirably back flow to a shower head.

  • Publication number: 20220148053
    Abstract: A system for persistent on demand payments is disclosed. The system may create a customizable payment event, generate a first event token linked to the customizable payment event, transmit the first event token to a user device, receive at least one of a payment channel data or a dispute data, and update the customizable payment event based on at least one of the payment channel data or the dispute data.

  • Publication number: 20210322853
    Abstract: A system and method for facilitating physical therapy that may include a wearable display, wearable sensors disposed at varying positions on a user, a processor comprising executable instructions configured to provide a virtual reality environment, virtual characters, and therapeutic activities on the wearable display, wherein the virtual characters interact with the user to provide at least form feedback and positive reinforcement. A new instance of the virtual reality environment, with identifiable differences, may be generated in response to a measured completion or partial completion of a therapeutic activity. Changes in the virtual reality environment may offer users continued indications of progression throughout the duration of a physical therapy program.

  • Publication number: 20210308358
    Abstract: Doxorubicin is extracted from blood using anionic material, such as a resin comprising sulfonated polystyrene divinylbenzene beads, and polyethersulfone membrane, or both. After exposing the resin and/or membrane to blood in order to remove doxorubicin therefrom, the doxorubicin maybe extracted from the resin and/or membrane by exposing the material to an extraction solution, sonicating the extraction solution to enhance release of the doxorubicin, and repeating the exposure and sonication in order to remove substantially all of doxorubicin from the resin.

  • Patent number: 11085395
    Abstract: A nacelle for a jet engine having a selectively operated reverse thruster which redirects air flow to a cascade during a reverse thrust operation, the nacelle including a fancowl panel configured as a stationary partial cover for a jet engine; and a translating cowl panel configured to move transversely during a reverse thrust operation so as to expose a cascade for emitting reverse thrust airflow. In exemplary embodiments, a moveable automatic translating panel, or a rotatable hinge panel, or an extension portion of the fancowl is used to preserve clearance with an aircraft wing in a nacelle clearance area.

  • Patent number: 10808857
    Abstract: A multifunctional restrictive valve for controlling the flow of water therethrough. The valve has a main body with a flow channel through the main body. The main body receives water upstream thereof through an inlet port and passes it out through an outlet port at the downstream end of the body. A flow control assembly is located in the flow channel and includes a temperature sensor/actuator acting on a piston to move, when the temperature sensor heats up the piston, to block water flow control ports. The flow control assembly also includes an override feature wherein the piston is located within a slide and the flow control ports are located in the slide. By moving the slide away from the piston when the piston is blocking the flow control ports, the temperature sensor and piston may be overridden and flow may resume through the main body.
