Patent number: 11986289Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses for enabling a plurality of non-invasive, physiological sensors to obtain physiological measurements from the same tissue site. Each of a plurality of sensors can be integrated with or attached to a multi-sensor apparatus. The multi-sensor apparatus can orient the plurality of non-invasive, physiological sensors such that each of the plurality of non-invasive, physiological sensors obtains physiological data from the same or a similar location.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2019Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Willow Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Cristiano Dalvi, Hung The Vo, Jeroen Poeze, Ferdyan Lesmana, Jesse Chen, Kevin Hughes Pauley, Ruiqi Long, Stephen Leonard Monfre, Sean Merritt, Mohamed K.

Publication number: 20240153320Abstract: Disclosed herein is a test rover apparatus, a test system and a test method using the test rover apparatus. For example, the test rover apparatus is provided with a chassis that is configured to support an object representing a mobile actor, and a motor that is coupled to at least one wheel. At least one spring is coupled between the at least one wheel and the chassis to: bias the at least one wheel to extend out of the cavity to engage an underlying surface, and compress in response to a load being applied to the top of the chassis thereby retracting the at least one wheel into the cavity. A controller is configured to control the motor to drive the at least one wheel to propel the chassis along a predetermined route that is based on simulation data and corresponds to a maneuver of the mobile actor.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 4, 2022Publication date: May 9, 2024Applicant: FORD GLOBAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLCInventors: Thomas Daniel MCMENAMIN, JR., Raymond LEONARD, Michael BRANDL, Timothy RIGGS, Sean William SHAWGO, Dustin Ryan YAUTZ

Publication number: 20220188283Abstract: Data is gathered from a log file on a first application server, a log file on a second application server, a database on a database server, or any suitable combination thereof. By correlating the data from different sources, XP-Functions that execute in sequence on a single application server are identified and combined into a sequence referred to as an executable process chain (XP-Chain). The automatic process discovery server reconstructs end-to-end processes out of XP-Chains, even when the XP-Chains are executed on different application servers, based on log files and database data. A test script may be generated for an identified end-to-end process. By running the test script, proper functioning of the end-to-end process may be confirmed. Existing test scripts may be disabled for a formerly identified end-to-end process that is no longer found to be executed.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 15, 2020Publication date: June 16, 2022Inventors: Natallia Jamieson, Gregor Berg, Andre Niklas Wenz, Sean Leonard, Chirag Poddar

Publication number: 20120143967Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention enable allocating and indicating the trustworthiness of a message, especially messages that comprise content that has been digitally signed. In some embodiments, a provider of assurance services and assurance software provides trust attestations related to messages and may manipulate the user interface used to view these messages. The trust attestations may be computed by various methods. The trust attestations may then be presented when the message is displayed to the user using the assurance software. For example, the trust attestations may be displayed as user interface elements in a designated portion of the chrome of a messaging service, such as a webmail service. In one embodiment, the assurance software can run on the webmail service and the trust attestations in the chrome are served up via techniques for delivery of client-server presentation data.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 9, 2011Publication date: June 7, 2012Applicant: PENANGO, INC.Inventor: Sean Leonard

Publication number: 20120104826Abstract: The present disclosure describes components for use with child seats and other personal restraint systems. In one embodiment a soft pad portion of a buckle assembly can be configured to surround or encase components of a buckle assembly of a personal restraint system. In certain embodiments of the disclosure, the pad can include one or more media features that can include entertainment, education, or care-giver alert devices that can be attached to, integrated with, or otherwise connected to the pad. Moreover, the pad can also serve as a platform onto which indicators, additional user devices, and/or media features can be incorporated and/or displayed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2011Publication date: May 3, 2012Applicant: AmSafe Commercial Products, Inc.Inventors: Peter Edward Miller, Ian John Hadlow, Derrick John Martin Barker, Andrew Charles Peters, Sean Leonard Rory Casey

Publication number: 20090113328Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide multistate, multidimensional user interface elements. In one embodiment, the user interface elements are multistate and multidimensional to indicate to a user of a computer system multiple independently variable states through a single user interface element. The user can change at least one subset of those variable states through the user interface element. The user interface elements may also communicate the behavior that a system will exhibit when acting upon those combined states. Exemplary embodiments include indicating ways in which messages will be processed in a secure messaging system.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 30, 2008Publication date: April 30, 2009Applicant: Penango, Inc.Inventor: Sean Leonard

Publication number: 20090106557Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention enable a message recipient or messaging system to indicate the trustworthiness of a message, especially messages that comprise content that has been digitally signed. In addition, embodiments may alter or control the message to change user behavior by preventing the user from doing things that the message would induce the user into doing. In some embodiments, various characteristics and indicia of the message are determined. For example, for e-mail messages having digitally signed content, certain embodiments may determine the entity or entities asserting a basis for trust, the status or role of the sender, the name of the sender, the affiliation of the sender, the messaging address the location, and the most recent status of the trust relationship. Based on the determined indicia, a plain language notification is composed and the message is displayed with the notification.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 20, 2008Publication date: April 23, 2009Inventor: Sean Leonard
