  • Patent number: 11895269
    Abstract: Implementations relate to determination and visual display of spoken menus for calls. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes receiving audio data output in a call between a call device and a device associated with a target entity. The audio data includes speech indicating one or more selection options for a user of the call device to navigate through a call menu provided by the target entity in the call. Text is determined by programmatically analyzing the audio data, the text representing the speech. The selection options are determined based on programmatically analyzing at least one of the text or the audio data. At least a portion of the text is displayed by the call device during the call, as one or more visual options that correspond to the selection options. The visual options are each selectable via user input to cause corresponding navigation through the call menu.

  • Patent number: 11878093
    Abstract: A humidification system for delivering humidified gases to a user can include a heater base, humidification chamber having an inlet, outlet, and associated fluid conduit, and breathing circuit including a supply conduit, inspiratory conduit, and optional expiratory conduit. The humidification system can include various features to help make set-up less difficult and time-consuming. For example, the supply conduit, inspiratory conduit, and optional expiratory conduit can be coupled into a one-piece circuit to aid set-up. Various components can be color-coded and can have corresponding structures to indicate which components should be connected to one another during set-up. Such features can also help make the set-up process more intuitive for an operator, which can reduce the need for specialized training and reduce the number of potential errors.

  • Publication number: 20230388422
    Abstract: Implementations relate to determination and display of estimated hold durations for calls. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method includes obtaining an identifier of a target entity, the identifier usable by a first call device to initiate a call between the first call device and the target entity. A hold duration is determined that is an estimated amount of time before the call is matched to a human agent when the call is initiated at a particular time that is prospective to a current time. The hold duration is determined based on previous calls between one or more call devices and the target entity. The hold duration is provided for display by the first call device prior to the initiation of the call between the first call device and the target entity.

  • Patent number: 11815349
    Abstract: In one embodiment, an automatic high-speed X-ray system may generate a high-resolution X-ray image of an inspected sample at a direction substantially orthogonal to a plane of the inspected sample. The system may determine a first cross-sectional shape of a first portion of a first element of interest in the inspected sample based on grayscale values of the X-ray image associated with the first element of interest. The system may determine a second cross-sectional shape of a second portion of the first element of interest in the inspected sample. The second cross-sectional shape may be determined based on the grayscale values of the X-ray image associated with the first element of interest. The system may determine one or more first metrological parameters associated with the first element of interest in the inspected sample based a comparison of the first cross-sectional shape and the second cross-sectional shape.
