Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems, methods and computer readable media for gaming monitoring. In particular, embodiments process images to determine presence of a gaming object on a gaming table in the images. Embodiments estimate postures of one or more players in the images and based on the estimated postures determine a target player associated with the gaming object among the one or more players.

Abstract: Encasement structures and methods of customizing patient drug delivery profiles using an encasement structure are described herein. Encasement structures can be configured to receive an implantable medical device and physicians can implant the medical devices within the encasement structures. Encasement structures can include at least one sheet of a bioscaffold material and one or more depots. depots can be configured to release an active agent, such as an antibiotic, to the medical device within the encasement structure and/or the surrounding tissue. The depots can be insertable into or integrated with the at least one sheet of bioscaffold material.

Abstract: The present invention discloses an Asset Usage Rights Token for connected ecosystems. Asset usage rights represent the right to use something of value under specified contractual terms such as a section of road, a parking space, a right of way, airspace, a charging station, etc. These mobility and transportation asset usage rights backing AURTs guarantee a certain dollar amount of resource use, rather than a certain quantity of use which help facilitate the monetization of public goods like streets, parking space etc.

Abstract: A water pipe including a water chamber that has a threaded top portion with a first opening into the water chamber, wherein the threaded top portion is configured to removably couple to a cap. The water pipe also includes a tube and a percolator disposed within the water chamber. A first end of the tube is coupled to a wall of the water chamber to form a second opening in the water chamber which extends into a first end of the tube, and a second end of the tube is coupled to the percolator.

Abstract: The present invention provides an implantable medical product in a pouch structure, comprising an extracellular matrix (ECM) structure in sheet form. The pouch structure has an internal region and is configured to receive an electrical medical device therein. In particular, a larger pouch structure is designed to accommodate a medical device having a larger size, such as a subcutaneous implantable cardioverter-defibrillators (S-ICDs). In particular, lock-stitched seamed ECM sheets form a larger pouch structure. It is preferable that the stitches can securely hold the ECM sheets together by providing mechanical strength and durability to withstand the weight of the electronic medical device. The stitches securely hold the pouch structure together and does not fall apart during trimming or cutting of the pouch structure.

Abstract: A lighting luminaire is provided for implementing enhanced performance for multiple applications. A lighting fixture includes a housing defining a novel heat management system optionally formed by a unitary member or formed by two generally identical housing sections. The housing includes a predefined profile and features for heat transfer including an upper compartment where heat sensitive components are installed and a lower compartment where lighting modules, such as LED modules, are installed. The housing lower compartment includes an upwardly facing lower lens member and predefined features to minimize or prevent heat from traveling upwardly into the upper housing compartment.

Abstract: A fracturing fluid containing a hydratable viscosifying polymer and a zirconium acetylacetonate crosslinker provides a green alternative to conventional systems. The zirconium aceylacetonate is dissolved in benzyl alcohol or in a mixture of benzyl alcohol and 2,2-dimethyl-1,3-dioxolan-4(yl)-methanol. The pH of the fracturing fluid may be between from about 3.5 to about 11.5. The fracturing fluid may contain an acidic buffering agent or a basic buffering agent. The fracturing fluid may be pumped into a well in order to initiate or enlarge a fracture within a subterranean formation penetrated by the well.

Abstract: Dynamic mobile coupons (DMCs) having a variable commercial value and/or other variable coupon characteristic are provided herein. By way of example, a DMC can be distributed to a mobile device based on criteria established by a sponsor of the DMC. A redemption value of the DMC can be variable and dynamically established based at least in part on data associated with a recipient mobile device. Upon redemption of the DMC at a retail entity, the value is fixed and applied to a transaction. Details of the transaction are provided to a remote clearinghouse that performs mediation and indemnification functions to finalize the transaction. As described, the subject disclosure provides a DMC that facilitates a rich and flexible mechanism to generate purchasing incentive for consumers in a mobile environment.

Abstract: Systems and methods can support generation of a full-thickness, human skin organ from tissue culture expanded cells. Human dermal and epidermal progenitor cells can be isolated from human tissues. Isolated cells may be cultured as epidermal cells while other isolated cells may be separately cultured as dermal cells. The cultured epidermal cells and dermal cells may be combined for co-culturing. The co-cultured cells may be suspended within a slurry. The co-cultured cells may be implanted onto a recipient organism for generation of a full-thickness skin organ comprising fully cycling hair follicles, adipose tissue, and other skin organ structures.
