  • Publication number: 20240172967
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for canine mobility detection is disclosed. The method includes processing mobility data captured by a device attached to a canine, analyzing canine data corresponding to the canine to determine at least one baseline canine, wherein the at least one baseline canine is similar to the canine, for each of the one or more metrics, comparing the one or more metrics of the canine to one or more baseline metrics of the at least one baseline canine, determining one or more scores for each of the one or more metrics, the one or more scores based on a normal range of the one or more metrics from the one or more baseline metrics of the at least one baseline canine, and displaying at least one alert on one or more user interfaces of a user device.

  • Patent number: 11995625
    Abstract: A system is disclosed for a digital rights management system which enforces license rights by establishing an account domain of registered consumer devices which may each receive a decryption key to be used to decode digital content bought by any of the devices within the account domain. Such system further enables the decentralization of content sharing by establishing a network of trusted intermediate devices to manage licenses on end devices for a central rights provider.

  • Publication number: 20240150242
    Abstract: A three-part epoxy grout composition comprises a liquid epoxy blend, a liquid hardener, and a graded particulate aggregate, wherein the dry aggregate particles are pretreated with an applied adhesion promoter in an amount of 0.01 to 5% by weight. The volume of pretreated aggregate particles, when mixed with the epoxy blend and the hardener, comprises at least 70% by volume of the cured grout. Pretreatment of the aggregate by coating with adhesion promoter allows more efficient use of chemicals along with improved strength. Related methods are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11974576
    Abstract: A gas-powered oven includes a cooking surface and a heat deflecting frame, such that the cooking surface and heat deflecting frame collectively define at least a portion of a cooking chamber. An outer housing extends around the cooking surface and the heat deflecting frame, with the outer housing having an opening formed therein and in communication with the cooking chamber. A first burner is connectable to a gas source and is located within the outer housing and spaced from the cooking chamber. The first burner is elongate and includes a first array of openings formed therein. A second burner is connectable to the gas source and extends into the cooking chamber toward a portion of the heat deflecting frame. The second burner includes a tapered passageway and an expanding passageway downstream of the tapered passageway to achieve desired flow characteristics of the gas flowing through the second burner.

  • Patent number: 11975742
    Abstract: Methods of refining a planned trajectory of an autonomous vehicle are disclose. For multiple cycles as the vehicle moves along the trajectory, the vehicle will perceive nearby objects. The vehicle will use the perceived object data to calculate a set of candidate updated trajectories. The motion planning system will measure a discrepancy between each candidate updated trajectory and the current trajectory by: (i) determining waypoints along each trajectory; (ii) determining distances between at least some of the waypoints; and (iii) using the distances to measure the discrepancy between the updated trajectory and the current trajectory. The system will use the discrepancy to select, from the set of candidate updated trajectories, a final updated trajectory for the vehicle to follow.

  • Publication number: 20240144353
    Abstract: A system according to certain aspects of the disclosure provides drug pricing information from multiple PBMs to users. For example, the system may obtain, calculate, and/or estimate drug prices that are available under contracts or agreements between PBMs and various pharmacies. These prices may be prices of drugs for purchase at the various pharmacies. In response to requests for prices of particular drugs, the system can display relevant prices. For example, the system displays a price for each pharmacy chain and/or displays prices for a particular geographical area. The users can compare the prices for a particular drug and determine which pharmacy they would like to purchase the drug from. The system can provide a discount coupon that allows the users to purchase the drug at the price listed by the system at the selected pharmacy.

  • Publication number: 20240129122
    Abstract: A storage platform (100) with secured mirroring of data and data-at-rest encryption reduces repetitive encryption of data. A storage controller (120) is responsible for both encryption data-at-rest encryption and data encryption for transmissions to backup storage, allowing encryption to be only performed once within the storage platform (100). This reduces the amount of computation the storage platform (100) must perform, improving overall system performance.
