Publication number: 20240035902Abstract: A dual heat-freeze indicator and methods for making the same are disclosed. The dual heat-freeze exposure indicator includes a substrate, a low temperature indicator material provided in a first initial color state, a high temperature indicator material provided in a second initial color state, both supported by the substrate. The low temperature indicator material is configured to change from the first initial color state to a first exposed color state responsive to the indicator being exposed to a temperature below a low temperature threshold. The high temperature indicator material is configured to irreversibly change from the second initial color state to a second exposed color state responsive to the indicator being exposed to a temperature above a high temperature threshold. The low temperature indicator material returns from the exposed color state to the initial color state responsive to being exposed to a temperature above a reset temperature threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 29, 2022Publication date: February 1, 2024Applicant: Temptime CorporationInventors: Mohannad ABDO, Thaddeus PRUSIK, Marielle K. SMITH

Publication number: 20230037129Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for combining preprinted information together with coded sensor information within a two-dimensional barcode. The sensor information may be of an environmental, physical or biological nature, and records a cumulative change in status of the environmental or biological condition to which the labeled product has been exposed. A sensor dye chemistry is employed that undergoes a continuous chemical or physical state change in response to the occurrence of the environmental condition. The continuous change is between an initial state and an end state causing a change in the color state of the sensor dye embedded within the sensor-augmented two-dimensional barcode, encoding sensor digital information. Sensor information is recovered utilizing the error-correction feature during barcode decoding.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 23, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Applicant: TEMPTIME CORPORATIONInventors: Thaddeus PRUSIK, Mohannad ABDO, Clive HOHBERGER

Patent number: 11182579Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for combining preprinted information together with coded sensor information within a two-dimensional barcode. The sensor information may be of an environmental, physical or biological nature, and records a change in status of the environmental or biological condition to which the labeled product has been exposed. A sensor dye chemistry is employed and when a specified condition of the sensed property occurs it causes a change in the color state of sensor dye modules embedded within the sensor-augmented two-dimensional barcode, encoding sensor digital information. Sensor information is recovered utilizing the error-correction feature during barcode reading.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2019Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: TEMPTIME CORPORATIONInventors: Thaddeus Prusik, Mohannad Abdo, Clive Hohberger
