Patent number: 11990009Abstract: A system for monitoring shopping carts uses cameras to generate images of the carts moving in a store. In some implementations, cameras may additionally or alternatively be mounted to the shopping carts and configured to image cart contents. The system may use the collected image data, and/or other types of sensor data (such as the store location at which an item was added to the basket), to classify items detected in the shopping carts. For example, a trained machine learning model may classify item in a cart as “non-merchandise,” “high theft risk merchandise,” “electronics merchandise,” etc. When a shopping cart approaches a store exit without any indication of an associated payment transaction, the system may use the associated item classification data, optionally in combination with other data such as cart path data, to determine whether to execute an anti-theft action, such as locking a cart wheel or activating a store alarm.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2021Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Gatekeeper Systems, Inc.Inventors: Scott J. Carter, Narayanan V. Ramanathan, Stephen E. Hannah, Jesse M. James

Patent number: 11986627Abstract: The present invention relates to titration and delivery of anesthetic and sedative medications to a subject. Further, the present invention relates to a device and methods for titrating and delivering the medications in a semi-automated or fully automated manner and which can be monitored and controlled remotely. Even still further, the present invention relates to the device that can perform the titration and the delivery of the medications in a manner that minimalizes occlusion and prevents back flow of the medications. More particularly, the present invention relates to the device for the titration and the delivery of the medications using a non-concentric pumping mechanism that gradually or progressively increases and decreases occlusion in a medication delivery line within the pumping mechanism to minimize and/or prevent sudden formation and release of the occlusion in order to provide more steady and continuous flow of the medications through the device to the subject.Type: GrantFiled: October 20, 2020Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: NeuroWave Systems Inc.Inventors: Stéphane Bibian, Sankar Barua, Tatjana Zikov

Patent number: 11989286Abstract: A method and system for mitigating against side channel attacks (SCA) that exploit speculative store-to-load forwarding is described. The method comprises conditioning store-to-load forwarding on the memory dependence predictor (MDP) being trained for that load instruction. Training involves identifying situations in which store-to-load forwarding could have been performed, but wasn't, and obversely, identifying situations in which store-to-load forwarding was performed but resulted in an error.Type: GrantFiled: January 13, 2022Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Ventana Micro Systems Inc.Inventors: John G.

Patent number: 11986681Abstract: Time-domain interleaving of treatment X-rays and imaging X-rays during an image guided radiation therapy (IGRT) process in a radiation therapy system prevents scatter of the treatment X-rays from degrading the quality of X-ray images used to generate volumetric image data of a target volume. Imaging X-rays are delivered to the target volume during one or more imaging intervals, and one or more pulses of treatment X-rays are delivered to the target volume between the imaging intervals. In instances in which a pulse of treatment X-rays is timed to occur during an imaging interval, the pulse of treatment X-rays is inhibited from occurring during the imaging interval and is rescheduled to occur at a later time that does not coincide with that imaging interval or subsequent imaging intervals.Type: GrantFiled: July 29, 2019Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: VARIAN MEDICAL SYSTEMS, INC.Inventors: Simon Keller, Daniel Morf, Peter Munro

Patent number: 11986603Abstract: A medical device used to percutaneously gain access to a targeted site within a living body, for example the left ventricle of the heart. The device is comprised of an inner tubular member, outer tubular member, and an adjustable control handle. The control handle can precisely control the relative position of the inner tubular member relative to the outer member by providing feedback to the operator. This feedback provided by the control handle allows the operator to precisely maneuver the catheter within a body and change the shape of the catheter system without taking his/her eyes off the task that he/she is performing. The control handle is designed to precisely change the catheter system from one tip shape to another tip shape and back. Described herein is a method to perform a catheter tip shape change without the need to observe manipulations of a control system to change catheter tip configurations.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2021Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: PROMEDICA HEALTH SYSTEM, INC.Inventor: P.

Patent number: 11985963Abstract: A clip for attaching a fishing line to a kite line. The clip mounts on the housing for loosely supporting the fishing line. The clip includes a pair of top rollers and a bottom roller aligned in parallel during operation. The rollers rotate freely to prevent twisting of the kite line. The rollers do cooperate to hold the kite line and prevent axial motion between the kite line and the rollers of the clip. The clip is moveable between a locked configuration where the clip is secured axially to the fishing line and is capable of holding the fishing line, to an unlocked configuration that releases the fishing line. When bait at one end of the fishing line is hit or tugged, the clip releases both the fishing line and the kite line to enable the clip to slid down the kite line away from the kite and fishing line.Type: GrantFiled: June 7, 2021Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Cerberus Fishing Systems, Inc.Inventor: Anthony S. Estrada

Patent number: 11986701Abstract: A resistance force is controlled such that a user's effort against the resistance force results in a first isokinetic seed movement. The resistance force required to effect the first isokinetic seed movement is associated with a force-velocity profile. It is determined whether a sufficient number of isokinetic seed movements have been performed by the user. In response to a determination that the sufficient number of isokinetic seed movements have been performed by the user, a strength determination of the user is made based on the isokinetic seed movements performed by the user.Type: GrantFiled: April 24, 2023Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: Tonal Systems, Inc.Inventors: Brandt Belson, Kelly Savage
