  • Patent number: 11361042
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer program product are provided for determining peers of a user by evaluating persons identified from a calendar of the user. In use, a system identifies a calendar of a user. The system further identifies events saves in the calendar of the user. One or more persons are then identified by the system from the events. Moreover, for each of the identified persons, the system evaluates the person in terms of information gathered from the events and determines whether the evaluating indicates that the person has a particular type of relationship with the user. When the system determines that the evaluating indicates that the person has the particular type of relationship with the user, then the system identifies the person as a peer of the user.

  • Patent number: 11358801
    Abstract: A differential impulse conveyor system including detectable markers disposed in a series on a moving component of the conveyor system. A stationary sensor disposed in close proximity to the markers generates a signal when the moving component is in a first range of motion to dispose the markers proximal to the sensor, and the sensor either fails to generate a signal when the moving component is not within the first range of motion. The sensor signal causes a current conditioning device to condition current from a current source to operate a motor to power the conveyor tray at a first rate of acceleration in a first mode, and the lack of the signal causes the current conditioning device to operate the motor to power the conveyor tray at a second rate of acceleration in a second mode. Markers may be positionable to optimize the timing of the current modes.
