  • Publication number: 20220358190
    Abstract: Computer systems and methods are disclosed to implement a role manager that automatically analyzes code accessing various resources to generate a role with the necessary resource permissions to execute the code. In embodiments, the role manager may be implemented as part of a workflow orchestration or resource provisioning system that employs code requiring access to different types of resources. In embodiments, the role manager may analyze a code segment to identify the different resources accessed by the code segment and the permissions needed for each access, and generate a role that has the needed permissions. In embodiments, the role manager may automatically manage these roles based on changes to associated code segments. Advantageously, the disclosed role manager removes the need to manually create roles need by code segments ahead of time, and creates roles with minimal privileges required for the code, thereby simplifying achievement of system security.

  • Patent number: 11471639
    Abstract: A respiratory interface, such as a mouthpiece, having a vestibular shield overlapping a user's teeth and gums, a gases passageway extending through the vestibular shield allowing for the passage of the gases through mouthpiece and an extra oral seal associated with the gases passageway, wherein the passageway in use causes gases to be diffused when exiting from the gases passageway. Mouthpiece may have an adjustment mechanism to alter distance between the vestibular shield and the extra-oral seal. The interface may include an elbow having a vent.

  • Patent number: 11461259
    Abstract: Systems and methods for load detection on serial communication data lines are provided herein. In certain configurations, a serial communication system includes a data line having a load capacitance and a master device configured to generate a command signal for a slave device to measure the load capacitance on the data line. The system further includes a slave device including a load detector including a controller configured to receive the command signal from the master device, provide a first fixed current to the data line, determine an amount of time elapsed while the data line is driven to a first threshold value, and determine the load capacitance of the data line based on the amount of time elapsed.

  • Patent number: 11449666
    Abstract: A system and method for automated distribution of content to a designated publisher webpage on a third party publisher server that requires multiple direct manual human interactions for form completion and file upload. In one embodiment, the method is autonomously and directly executed on a local user computing device having a local browser executable thereon to access a distribution origin webpage, and to perform human-like activities in lieu of the required multiple direct manual human interactions so to input locally manipulated distribution content into form fields and file upload and thereby permit submission of a completed form and uploaded file.

  • Publication number: 20220142836
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein are directed to posture assistance devices that may include a motor coupled to a frame, where the frame attaches to a wheelchair. In some cases, the devices include a shaft coupled to the motor, where the motor is configured to rotate the shaft. The devices can also include an extension arm attached to the frame, where the extension arm includes a redirection surface. The extension arm can be selectively adjustable to change the distance between the redirection surface and the shaft. The devices can also include a connection line coupled to the shaft and configured to engage with the redirection surface, such that rotation of the shaft changes a length a fed-out portion of the connection line. The connection line can also include an attachment mechanism that couples the connection line to a user.

  • Publication number: 20220138638
    Abstract: The disclosed computer-implemented method may include identifying and notifying requestors that may be candidates for a particular autonomous vehicle in order to find those candidates that may be willing or able to relax their travel constraints to match the autonomous vehicle. A request flow may involve surfacing the potential option of matching to an autonomous vehicle before setting a specific destination. For example, the request flow may involve determining that an autonomous vehicle is sufficiently near an in-session potential requestor. Before the potential requestor enters a specific destination, the request flow may present the possibility of the potential requestor being matched with the autonomous vehicle. In some examples, the request flow may then provide available drop-off locations that are compatible with the autonomous vehicle for selection by the potential requestor. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10857833
    Abstract: A caster assembly comprises a caster wheel having an outer surface. A wheel support is coupled to the wheel to support the wheel for rotation about a rotational axis and for swiveling about a swivel axis. A brake assembly comprises a brake having a cammed wheel engaging surface shaped to engage the outer surface of the wheel and a brake actuator to move the brake relative to the wheel from an unbraked position to a braked position in which the brake limits rotation of the wheel about the rotational axis. The cammed wheel engaging surface is arranged to articulate relative to the wheel support. The cammed wheel engaging surface articulates relative to the wheel support in response to the wheel rotating about the rotational axis after the brake is initially placed in the braked position such that the cammed wheel engaging surface more deeply engages the wheel with rotation of the wheel about the rotational axis.
