Abstract: A system for measuring capillary refill time includes a wearable device and a control unit. The wearable device includes a force sensor to obtain a force signal and an optical sensor to obtain an optical signal. The system ensures that an applied force is acceptable in both magnitude and duration, and that a duration over which the applied force is released or removed is acceptable. These factors can establish that a capillary refill time determined or calculated therein is accurate. The system can also determine the capillary refill time based on the force and optical signals obtained by the force and optical sensors, respectively.

Abstract: Systems and methods include reading a value of a desired light color temperature-time function. A first drive signal parameter is selected for a first light source having a first color temperature and a second drive signal parameter is selected for a second light source having a second color temperature. The drive signal parameters are selected to create a color temperature for a value of the desired light color temperature-time function. First light is emitted from the first light source and second light from the second light source. The first light and the second light combine to form blended light at the color temperature for the value of the desired light color temperature-time function.

Abstract: A system for detecting a fraudulent ATM transaction is disclosed. The system relates to an ATM machine that receives a bank/ATM card from a customer. The ATM first attempts to read information from the card chip, but is unable to do so due to a read error. The ATM then instead reads the information from the magnetic strip, and initiates a fraud detection procedure. In one such procedure, the ATM uses a local wireless access point to detect a customer's device, such as a phone, in the vicinity of the ATM. In another such procedure, the ATM communicates with a backend server. The backend server then determines the location of the customer device either by transmitting a message to request authorization, or by utilizing GPS or other location-detection means on the customer device to determine whether the customer device is within the ATM vicinity.

Abstract: Methods of and devices for automatically reducing and/or eliminating false alarms to the call centers are disclosed. The method of reducing a false alarm notification to a call center can comprise receiving a triggered event notification on a mobile device, requesting a user to unlock the mobile device, and requesting the user to confirm a triggered alarm or dismiss the trigger notification using the mobile device using a non-GUI based user interface.

Abstract: The present invention provides a novel gas impingement and recoil mitigation system for firearms that includes separate systems that reduce recoil, muzzle rise, and user fatigue and includes a system that is of variable size to match the size and caliber of firearm to which the system will attach. The system can attach to a variety of firearms through an appropriately sized standard barrel connector. As propellant gas is redirected through a ported barrel, the force of the over-pressure wave caused by the propellant blast impinges on a piston-like weight-and-spring mechanism, which thrusts forward with a force that is opposite in direction from the typical backward force that causes muzzle rise and recoil. Numerous additional aspects are disclosed.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for applying a transfer material onto one or more surfaces of an article are disclosed, including apparatuses and methods of transfer printing on and/or decorating three-dimensional articles, as well as the articles printed and/or decorated thereby. The apparatuses and methods may include providing a deposition device, such as a printing device; providing a transfer component; depositing a material onto a portion of the transfer component with the deposition device; modifying the portion of the transfer component with the transfer material thereon to conform the transfer component to at least a portion of one or more surfaces of the three-dimensional article; and transferring the transfer material onto the one or more surfaces of the article.

Abstract: A system includes a mobile computing device with an image sensor that wirelessly controls at least one lighting fixture to maintain a predetermined color and intensity based on light detected by the image sensor.
