  • Patent number: 11968205
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide methods and systems for securely communicating with electronic assets using an authenticated computer hub and a central server. The authenticated computer hub transmits a hub identity uniquely identifying the computer hub and communication results received from authenticated electronic assets, and receives an identity confirmation message and electronic asset identities to be authorized with control directives defining operational usage parameters. The authenticated computer hub has a user interface to display electronic assets granted access, and a short-range communication device to connect to authorized electronic assets to exchange information based on control directives.

  • Publication number: 20240045503
    Abstract: A wearable computing device with bio-signal sensors and a feedback module provides an interactive mediated reality (“VR”) environment for a user. The bio-signal sensors receive bio-signal data (for example, brainwaves) from the user and include bio-signal sensors embedded in a display isolator, having a deformable surface, and having an electrode extendable to contact the user's skin. The wearable computing device further includes a processor to: present content in the VR environment via the feedback module; receive bio-signal data of the user from the bio-signal sensor; process the bio-signal data to determine user states of the user, including brain states, using a user profile; modify a parameter of the content in the VR environment in response to the user states of the user. The user receives feedback indicating the modification of the content via the feedback module.

  • Patent number: 11505381
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to systems and methods for resealable packaging, to improve the accessibility of medications. Embodiments relate to systems and methods for resealable packaging with a bottom element with one or more storage areas, and a top element of a corresponding size to the bottom element. The top element couples to the bottom element and has apertures to expose the storage areas of the bottom element. The top element has a sliding middle section movable between a sealed closed position to cover the apertures and an open position to uncover to expose the one or more storage areas.
