Patent number: 11974005Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are described for facilitating a cell phone content watch party. A system includes a server, a host user device and a client user device—both coupled to the server, a content capture device (CCD) coupled to the host user device, and a content provider coupled to the host user device and the client user device. The content provider provides primary content segments. The CCD provides cell phone content which the host user device provides the cell phone content to the server. The server synchronizes a providing of the cell phone content with a presentation of the primary content segments by the client user device such that the presentations of the cell phone content and the primary content segments occur substantially simultaneously on the host user device and the client user device.Type: GrantFiled: December 7, 2021Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: DISH Network L.L.C.Inventors: Ross Alan Drennan, Grant Alexander Drennan, Jesus Flores Guerra

Patent number: 11969248Abstract: A catheter insertable into a patient for monitoring pressure having an expandable outer balloon. An expandable inner balloon is positioned within the lumen of the catheter and has having a second outer wall and forms a gas chamber to monitor pressure within the patient. In response to pressure exerted on the outer wall of the outer balloon, fluid within the outer balloon enters an opening in the wall of the catheter lumen to exert a pressure on the outer wall of the expanded inner balloon to deform the inner balloon and compress the gas within the inner balloon. A pressure sensor communicates with the gas containing chamber for measuring pressure based on compression of gas caused by deformation of the expanded inner balloon resulting from deformation of the expanded outer balloon.Type: GrantFiled: March 29, 2023Date of Patent: April 30, 2024Assignee: SENTINEL MEDICAL TECHNOLOGIES, LLC.Inventors: Timothy McKinney, Marc-Alan Levine, Michael Leedle
