  • Patent number: 10311131
    Abstract: A system and method for creating and managing electronic forms is described. The system includes a processor configured to receive an image of a form and receive, via a network interface, form template information specifying at least a first input field. The form template information includes a first input field type selection and first field location information for the first input field. The first input field type is selected from a plurality of input field types and the first field location information is defined relative to the image. The processor stores the form template information within a memory. The electronic form is configured to be rendered by superimposing a representation of the first input field over the image of the form.

  • Publication number: 20190102474
    Abstract: A computer that performs an enrollment process and provides an ordering process is described. During the enrollment process, the computer provides first user-interface information for a first electronic device that specifies an enrollment user interface associated with first individual characteristics. In response to receiving first user-interface activity that specifies enrollment information for a service, the computer provides the enrollment information to a second computer associated with the service. Subsequently, during the ordering process, the computer provides second user-interface information that specifies a service user interface associated with second individual characteristics. For example, a type of individual having the first individual characteristics may be more used to using technology than a type of individual having the second individual characteristics.

  • Publication number: 20180125621
    Abstract: A dental cleaning appliance includes a handle and a fluid delivery system. The fluid delivery system includes a nozzle for delivering a burst of working fluid to the teeth of a user. The nozzle moves relative to the handle as the appliance is moved along the teeth of the user. A sensor provides an output which varies with movement of nozzle relative to the handle. A control circuit actuates the delivery of working fluid to the teeth of the user depending on the output from the sensor. The control circuit is configured to adjust a parameter of the delivery to the teeth of the user, such as the volume of working fluid within a delivery, depending on the variation with time of the output from the sensor.
