  • Patent number: 11526948
    Abstract: A computer system and method for processing insurance claim data to identify and recommend insurance policy modifications using informatic data from one or more informatic sensor devices relating to a dwelling. Analytical analysis is performed on the received informatic data to determine a dwelling assessment value regarding an insurance risk relating to the dwelling. Electronic data relating to an insurance policy associated with the dwelling is received by a computer processor and is electronically analyzed to determine insurance coverage and liability values for the dwelling as prescribed by the insurance policy. Predefined business rules are utilized by a computer processor using at least the dwelling assessment value and the determined insurance coverage and liability values for the dwelling to determine, and preferably recommend, one or more insurance products for inclusion with the insurance policy to mitigate insuree liability regarding the dwelling.

  • Patent number: 11461850
    Abstract: A system may include sensors associated with structures, such that the sensors acquire data sets associated with the structures. The processor receives the data sets from the sensors, determines environmental conditions associated with the structures over a period of time, and determines a structural condition associated with one of the structures based on the data sets. The processor also determines a maintenance condition associated with the one of the structures based on one of the data sets, determines operating parameters associated with appliances within the structure based on the one of the data sets, and determines habits of occupants associated with the one of the structures based on the one of the data sets. The processor then adjusts properties of an insurance policy associated with the one of the structures based on the environmental conditions, the structural condition, the maintenance condition, the operating parameters, the habits, or any combination thereof.

  • Patent number: 11416941
    Abstract: A computer device and method for managing multiple electronic sensors is provided where a server receives building condition data from a motion sensor, analyzes the received data, and activates (or reconfigures) a camera sensor to capture an image of the inhabitants present within the building; the server then identifies the inhabitant of the building and retrieves profile data associated with the identified inhabitant; the server then, based on the profile data, generates an instruction to modify one or more conditions within the building (e.g., the environmental conditions of the building) and transmits the instruction to one or more devices (e.g., an environmental device) within the building.

  • Patent number: 11151657
    Abstract: Systems and methods include: receiving informatics data from one or more sensors installed at a first set of one or more properties; aggregating and analyze the informatics data to generate one or more favorability scores based upon the informatics data; based upon the one or more favorability scores, determining a set of one or more insurance policy offers for a target property separate from the first set of one or more properties; and providing the set of one or more insurance policy offers for the target property to an insurance policyholder of the target property.

  • Patent number: 10983056
    Abstract: Embodiments of a cell culture monitoring system are disclosed that may include a device having collimating and filtering components to elicit and detect fluorescence from a substrate located within a reaction vessel. The device may be used to detect changes in pH and dissolved oxygen levels in a liquid contained in the reaction vessel due to growth of living cells. Excitation light beams can be generated and collimated by a beam combiner and directed into the reaction vessel so as to be incident upon the substrate to cause the substrate to fluoresce. Some embodiments include use of expected wavelength offsets and shifted filters/mirrors to improve functionality and reduce space of device components.
