  • Patent number: 12186263
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a deep vein thrombosis (“DVT”) device that is portable, tubeless, and battery-operated, which ensures that the patient will have maximum mobility during recovery. The DVT device provides a pneumatically controlled bladder portion, which is actuated by an electronically controlled air pump, where the pump/bladder combination is enclosed in a “pocket” of a wrap or cuff during use. All pump, battery, and control components are protectively housed in a plastic case that is permanently attached to the bladder portion. Once the pump/bladder combination is placed in the “pocket” the wrap or cuff will be sealed. The wraps or cuffs are single use, disposable garments designed to provide an absorbent barrier during use, where the bladder portion and air pump remain clean during use and can be reused by the patient or hospital staff. Tabs or extensions may be used to secure the pump/bladder combination after insertion into the “pocket” of the wrap or cuff.

  • Patent number: 12189589
    Abstract: Methods and systems are described herein for improving anomaly detection in timeseries datasets. Different machine learning models may be trained to process specific types of timeseries data efficiently and accurately. Thus, selecting a proper machine learning model for identifying anomalies in a specific set of timeseries data may greatly improve accuracy and efficiency of anomaly detection. Another way to improve anomaly detection is to process a multitude of timeseries datasets for a time period (e.g., 90 days) to detect anomalies from those timeseries datasets and then correlate those detected anomalies by generating an anomaly timeseries dataset and identifying anomalies within the anomaly timeseries dataset. Yet another way to improve anomaly detection is to divide a dataset into multiple datasets based on a type of anomaly detection requested.

  • Patent number: 12189746
    Abstract: Techniques for securing displayed data on computing devices are disclosed. One example technique includes upon determining that the computing device is unlocked, capturing and analyzing an image in a field of view of the camera of the computing device to determine whether the image includes a human face. In response to determining that the image includes a human face, the technique includes determining facial attributes of the human face in the image via facial recognition and whether the human face is that of an authorized user of the computing device. In response to determining that the human face is not one of an authorized user of the computing device, the technique includes converting user data on the computing device from an original language to a new language to output on a display of the computing device, thereby securing the displayed user data even when the computing device is unlocked.

  • Patent number: 12189024
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to real-time health monitoring for automotive radars. A computing device may receive radar data from multiple radar units that have partially overlapping fields of view and detect a target object located such that the radar units both capture measurements of the target object. The computing device may determine a power level representing the target object for radar data from each radar unit, adjust these power levels, and determine a power difference between them. When the power difference exceeds a threshold power difference, the computing device may perform a calibration process to decrease the power difference below the threshold power difference or alert the vehicle, including onboard algorithms, to the reduced performance of the radar.

  • Patent number: 12189500
    Abstract: Systems and methods for preventing loss of audio during calls to and from a vehicle. In particular, systems and methods are provided for preventing the loss of audio for calls during an audio bus failure. Vehicles include interior microphones and speakers, which are connected via an audio bus. In some examples, the audio bus also includes other components such as a mixer, a transceiver, one or more cellular modems, an audio input module, and a digital signal processor. Using the audio bus, microphone input is beamformed and mixed and transmitted over a cellular network to a call recipient. Sound received back from the call recipient is received at the audio bus and transmitted to the vehicle via one or more speakers coupled to the audio bus. In some instances, the audio bus can fail, and alternative call procedures can be used to contact a remote advisor or other call recipient.
