  • System and method for fulfilling work tasks via modular autonomous vehicles
    Patent number: 11941555
    Abstract: A method for fulfilling a work task request using a modular autonomous vehicle is provided. The method includes transmitting a work task request specifying a work request to be performed by the modular autonomous vehicle, and identifying equipment required for performing the work task request. Once the work task request is stored at a server, the method further includes identifying information of the equipment required for performing the work task request, and determining whether equipment of the modular autonomous vehicle corresponds to the equipment required for assigning the work task to the modular autonomous vehicle. Method also includes, upon receiving in-cabin sensing data, assigning or denying the work task to the modular autonomous vehicle for performance of the work task.

  • METHODS AND APPARATUSES TO INCREASE INTRAOCULAR LENSES POSITIONAL STABILITY
    Publication number: 20240024095
    Abstract: A multi-piece IOL assembly is provided that includes a platform and an optic. The platform has an inner periphery surrounding an inner zone of the platform. The optic has an optical zone, an outer periphery and a retention mechanism disposed on the outer periphery. The optic is configured to be disposed in the inner zone of the platform and to extend to a location between the inner periphery and the outer periphery of the platform to be secured to the platform at the location. The platform can be secured to an inner periphery of the eye or can be formed into a natural lens by cutting the lens using a laser or other energy source.
