  • Patent number: 12141791
    Abstract: Systems and methods to adjust a unit of experience based on digital assets of users are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: manage first user information of a first user; receive an authentication request from the first user; determine whether the authentication information input is valid by comparing the authentication information input and first authentication information included in the first user information; determine, responsive to determination that the authentication information input is valid, a set of one or more digital assets that are associated with a first address included in a first digital wallet of the first user based on one or more transactions including the first address and the one or more digital assets of the set; determine a set of one or more entities correlated to the set of the one or more digital assets; determine and effectuate adjustments to the first unit of experience based on the correlated entities.

  • Publication number: 20230410066
    Abstract: A system includes a hardware processor and a memory storing software code. The hardware processor executes the software code to determine how many users are present at a location at a starting time of an NFT acquisition event, identify, based on how many users are present, a collaborative activity for the users, the collaborative activity requiring relinquishment of a plurality of NFTs, and communicate the collaborative activity to the users. The hardware processor further executes the software code to verify that the collaborative activity has been completed, and provide, in response to verifying, one or more new NFT(s) for distribution to at least one of the users, wherein (i) a value associated with the new NFT(s) exceeds a value of the NFTs relinquished, or (ii) a number of the NFTs relinquished exceeds a number of the new NFT(s).

  • Publication number: 20230376572
    Abstract: A system includes a hardware processor and a memory storing software code. The hardware processor executes the software code to receive a request from a user to link a non-fungible token (NFT) with a user account of the user, verify, in response to receiving the request, ownership of the NFT by the user, and link, in response to verifying, the NFT to the user account. The hardware processor is further configured to execute the software code to modify, based on at least one of the content viewing history of the user or a release date of a content available to the user, one or more attributes of the NFT.

  • Publication number: 20230139196
    Abstract: A system and method are provided for patient monitoring. The system and method may receive measurement data comprising measured values of physiological parameters of a patient at consecutive time instances. On a display, a trend view 510 may be provided which provides a longitudinal visualization of the measurement data by setting out the measured values of a first set of the physiological parameters at the consecutive time instances against a common timeline. Simultaneously with the trend view, a patient status view 500 may be provided which provides a visualization of a physiological state of the patient and which visualization is adapted to the measured values of a second set of the physiological parameters at a select time instance.

  • Patent number: 10878957
    Abstract: The invention relates to a need determination system including a user interface for enabling a person to input a current combination of a current subject, at least one current informal caregiver (ICG) giving care to the current subject, and at least one relationship between the current subject and the at least one current ICG. A combination similarity measure is applied to the current combination and stored combinations, in order to determine a stored combination which is similar to the current combination, where a need of the current subject and/or a need of the at least one current ICG are determined based on one or more needs assigned to a stored subject and/or stored ICGs of the determined similar stored combination. This allows for a reliable and fast determination of needs of a subject and/or an ICG with relatively low technical efforts.

  • Patent number: 9955605
    Abstract: Techniques and mechanisms for providing connectivity to an integrated circuit device via a hardware interface. In an embodiment, the hardware interface includes contacts forming an array of nodes. Some or all such nodes are arranged in cells, wherein the respective node types of each cell's nodes are according to the same cell pattern. The cell pattern includes eight B nodes for the exchange of data bits, four strobe S nodes for the exchange of strobe signals, and ground (G) nodes for the providing of one or more reference potentials. The cell pattern enables formation of a lattice structure including node-contiguous G nodes each of a respective one of the multiple cells. In another embodiment, a ratio of bi-level nodes (including all S nodes and all G nodes) of the cell pattern to a total number of G nodes of the cell pattern is 12:8 or more.

  • Patent number: 9884103
    Abstract: Disclosed are interactions between different betanodaviruses during infection of cells “in vitro” and in European sea bass. More specifically, fish administered striped jack nervous necrosis viruses (SJNNV), which are then exposed to red-spotted grouper nervous necrosis viruses (RGNNV), have fewer symptoms of disease associated with RGNNV and/or increased survival as compared to fish not administered SJNNV prior to exposure to RGNNV.

  • Patent number: 6312248
    Abstract: The neck finish for a wide range of plastic water dispenser bottles is formed so that it has a smooth, straight inner diameter and is fully calibrated, not requiring any post trimming. The parison is extruded over a fixed blow pin, which also serves as an inner mandrel. The wall thickness of the parison is controlled to provide the desired amount of material to fill the neck area and compression mold the neck body. When the mold is closed on the parison, the area between the cutting ring and striker plate comes into contact to form a calibrated neck finish. The blow pin tip is completely water cooled to the upper end and includes a specially positioned orifices adjacent the end to distribute the blow air so that it spreads out material, thereby reducing material push out and also cools the lower neck area. The assembly is designed to be very rigid, to assist in part de-molding.
