  • Patent number: 11931508
    Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for performing diagnostics on patient devices (720). The patient devices (720) may include respiratory therapy devices that operate in accordance with instruction sets, such as software or firmware. A server (710) may maintain a database of diagnostic data (718) indicating faults in one or more of a plurality of patient devices (720). The server (710) may transmit this diagnostic data (718) to one or more computing devices (760), including identification of faults that have occurred. The server (710) may also transmit service data to the plurality of patient devices (720) in order to address the identified faults.

  • Patent number: 11587363
    Abstract: The invention relates to a sensor system for checking a vein pattern. The sensor system comprises a first light source that is configured to emit during operation across the entire surface electromagnetic waves with wavelengths in the near infrared range, which are absorbed by hemoglobin. Furthermore, the sensor system comprises a second light source that is configured to emit during operation across the entire surface electromagnetic waves with wavelengths in the range of visible light. Furthermore, the sensor system comprises a camera with a first camera chip that is configured to record reflected electromagnetic waves with wavelengths in the near infrared range and to convert them into a corresponding infrared image, and with a second camera chip that is configured to record reflected electromagnetic waves with wavelengths in the range of visible light and to convert them into a corresponding photographic image.
