  • Publication number: 20210026415
    Abstract: Wearable digital buttons can be deployed within an enterprise context, allowing for the centralized distribution of viewable media content (such as images and videos) selected for each of one or more enterprise groups. For instance, a first set of media objects can be selected for a sales team within a company, a second set of media objects can be selected for a marketing team, and a third set can be selected for a tech support team. The media can be distributed by a central server, for instance wirelessly or via a USB-connected hub. The central server can include an interface enabling a user to select the media for distribution to each enterprise group, to edit or format the media, to view the locations of each wearable digital button within the enterprise, and to customize enterprise groups (for instance, by creating new groups and adding or removing users from existing groups).

  • Patent number: 5581833
    Abstract: According to the invention, a support pillow has a shape and construction that makes the support pillow particularly useful in situations in which it is necessary or desirable to have a support surface near the body of a user. The support pillow can be securely attached to the body to, for example, aid in supporting a baby during feeding, provide support of the elbows, forearms and wrists while reading or using a keyboard, or provide support for the forearms or external objects while engaging in an activity such as watching television or eating. The support pillow cushions and supports the back, and helps to hold the back in an orthopedically correct position. The support pillow also relieves muscle stress associated with holding a baby or other object by enabling the baby or object to be supported by the pillow.
