  • Patent number: 11532400
    Abstract: A system, method, and computer readable media are provided for obtaining a first set of skin data from an image capture system including at least one ultraviolet (UV) image of a user's skin. Performing a correction on the skin data using a second set of skin data associated with the user. Quantifying a plurality of skin parameters of the user's skin based on the first skin data, including quantifying a bacterial load. Quantifying the bacterial load by applying a brightness filter to isolate portions of the at least one UV image containing fluorescence, applying a dust filter, identifying portions of the at least one UV image that contain fluorescence due to bacteria, and determining a quantity of bacterial load in the users skin. Determining, using a machine learning model, an output associated with a normal skin state of the user and a current skin state of the user.

  • Publication number: 20190098957
    Abstract: A sophisticated air bladder that functions as an arch support of the foot that can be adjusted, a multitude of times as needed, by the user. The bladder is constructed so the air that provides the support is directed and corralled to the areas of the foot where support is typically needed and desired and will be maintained throughout weight bearing activities of the user. It is also versatile and can be used with any type of footwear, insole, orthotic or just a strap.

  • Patent number: 8520672
    Abstract: Packets are encapsulated and sent from a service node (e.g., packet switching device) using one or more services applied to a packet by an application node (e.g., a packet switching device and/or computing platform such as a Cisco ASR 1000) to generate a result, which is used by the service node to process packets of a flow of packets to which the packet belonged. An example of a service applied to a packet is a classification service, such as, but not limited to, using deep packet inspection on the packet to identify a classification result. The service node can, for example, use this classification result to process other packets in a same packet flow, such that all packets of a flow do not need to be, nor typically are, sent to an application node for processing.

  • Patent number: 7316307
    Abstract: An elongated plastic slide bearing (10) comprises a top (30), sidewalls (32, 34) depending from the top (30), and connecting to walls (36, 44, 48 and 38, 46, 50) that form laterally inwardly extending recesses (40, 42). Lock ribs (62, 64) extend upwardly and inwardly from the inner walls (44, 46) of the recesses (40, 42) to upper edges (66, 68). The upper edges (66, 68) are spaced below the bearing top (30). The bearing (10) is adapted to be set down onto a support beam (14) that includes laterally outwardly projecting lock flanges (22, 24) at its top. The lock ribs (62, 64) contact the lock flanges (22, 24). When the bearing (10) is pushed downwardly, the lock ribs (62, 64) bend outwardly and allow the lock ribs (62, 64) to move into a position below the lock flanges (22, 24). When that happens, the lock ribs (62, 64) assume substantially unstressed positions in which their upper edges (66, 68) are below the lock flanges (22, 24).

  • Patent number: 6939736
    Abstract: A method of reducing package stress includes placing matched components of an op-amp substantially in a region of a die having the least stress gradients. The region is located in the center of the die. Further, the center is the common centroid of the die. The matched components are the current mirror input stages of the op-amp. In one embodiment, a semiconductor configuration includes a die having a region with the least stress gradients, and an op-amp containing matched components that are located substantially in the region.

  • Patent number: 6486399
    Abstract: A pole mount cabinet for housing and supporting an article on a pole includes a housing having a rear wall and defining a chamber. The housing defines a rear opening in the rear wall. A mounting and support framework is adapted to be secured to the pole and includes at least one support member extending horizontally. The support member extends through the rear opening and into the chamber. The article can be positioned in the chamber such that it is supported by the support member.
