  • Patent number: 10846539
    Abstract: There is provided a system and method for shape/object recognition using still/scan/moving image optical digital media processing. The system may include a user device and a cloud/server. The user device may be configured to capture a reference optical data using a capturing device, transmit the reference data to the cloud/server, capture a subsequent optical data using the capturing device, and transmit the subsequent optical data to the cloud/server. The cloud/server may be configured to receive the reference optical data from the user device, receive the subsequent optical data from the user device, compare the subsequent optical data to the reference optical data, and transmit a notification to the user device. The notification may include similarities and differences between the reference optical data and the subsequent optical data.

  • Patent number: 6923190
    Abstract: An exemplary cleaning apparatus for cleaning a system having a first fluid and a system pump is provided, wherein the apparatus comprises a tank including a second fluid. The cleaning apparatus also comprises an apparatus pump for pumping a predetermined amount of the second fluid from the tank into the system while the system pump is off. The cleaning apparatus further comprises an output hose, a return hose, and a filter between the return hose and the output hose. After the predetermined amount of the second fluid is pumped into the system, the system pump is turned on to pump the first fluid and the second fluid out of the return line through the filter and into the output hose and back into the system.

  • Patent number: 6595248
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided for servicing a system having a used fluid, an inlet and an outlet. An exemplary apparatus comprises a first hose capable of being connected to the inlet, a second hose capable of being connected to the outlet, a first fluid tank including a first new fluid, a second fluid tank including a second new fluid, a pump and a selector. The selector selects one of the tanks and the pump pumps the new fluid from the selected tank into the system through the first hose and the inlet, and the second hose receives the used fluid via the outlet. For example, the first and second fluid tanks may communicate with the pump via first and second valves, respectively, and the selector may open the first valve and close the second valve, so that the pump pumps the first new fluid from the first fluid tank.
