Publication number: 20230189763Abstract: An animal management system for monitoring a plurality of animals over time includes a data management subsystem and a data acquisition subsystem, which includes RF asset tags. The data acquisition acquires data concerning the animals and efficiently provides it to aspects of the system for processing. The data may also include information from an environment data acquisition subsystem. The data management subsystem determines current wellness scores for each animal of a group of animals and a period wellness score for each animal over a larger period of time. Alerts may be sent went data shows an animal outside of threshold values. Other embodiments are presented.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2023Publication date: June 22, 2023Inventors: Gilles Alain Georges Blanc, Rémy André Jean Blanc, Patrick Louis Fiche, Idomeneas Chorafakis

Patent number: 9471271Abstract: A method of performing audio synthesis has a first audio event input to an audio algorithm along with associated parameters. A synthesis algorithm accesses a soundbank to generate audio output. The soundbank has two or more levels for a first desired sound. A first level is associated with a first sample of a relatively chaotic waveform, and a second level is associated with a second sample of a relatively stable waveform. Parameter data is associated with one or more of the levels. The first sample and the second sample begin to sound at the same point in time in response to the first audio event. The audio output is based in part on the parameter data, and the second sample is continuously looped until a second audio event is detected.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2014Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: MEDIALAB SOLUTIONS CORP.Inventors: Alain Georges, Voislav Damevski, Peter M.

Patent number: 8907947Abstract: The invention is directed to a method for navigating in a product structure of a product, the product comprising a set of three-dimensional modeled objects. The method comprises: (a) displaying a three-dimensional graphical representation of the product; (b) selecting a three-dimensional modeled object of the product; and (c) displaying a graphical representation of a number of levels of a hierarchy of the product structure of the product. The number of levels is determined according to levels identified in a simple path in the hierarchy of the product structure between the selected three-dimensional modeled object and a highest level of the hierarchy. The method selects a level among levels identified in the simple path in the hierarchy of the product structure of the product; and finds, in the set of three-dimensional modeled objects, a second set of three-dimensional modeled objects according to the selected level of the hierarchy.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2009Date of Patent: December 9, 2014Assignee: Dassault SystèmesInventors: Emmanuel Denis Radet, Alain Georges Dugousset, Juba Hadjali, Iver Boris Bailly-Salins
