  • Publication number: 20230405257
    Abstract: A face mask system for detecting gases and volatile organic compounds (VOCs). The face mask system includes a protective mask, at least one communication device, a gas detection device and an external sensor. The gas detection device includes a power supply unit, an inductive coil loop, an internal microcontroller, a wireless communication chip and an internal sensor. The internal sensor is configured to detect and measure a plurality of inside mask VOC readings. The external sensor is configured to detect and measure a plurality of outside mask VOC readings. The external sensor compares an average inside VOC value with an average outside VOC value to provide unique and accurate information of the environment inside the protective mask thereby protecting the user from hazardous situations.

  • Publication number: 20220168065
    Abstract: A system for identifying and tracking a plurality of implant devices. The system includes at least one communication device and a medical implant device tracking system. The medical implant device tracking system includes a processor on which is installed an implant device tracking application. The implant device tracking application enables the communication device to scan a unique device identifier (UDI) of the implant devices thereby recording a complete and accurate set of information about the implant devices. The medical implant device tracking system includes a database unit, an implant manufacturer access unit, a hospital access unit, a patient access unit, and a physician access unit. The implant device tracking application generates immediate notification of the recall status of the at least one implant device at the time of the implant device scanning thereby preventing the implantation of the recalled implant device in the patient's body.

  • Publication number: 20060276108
    Abstract: The present invention includes methods and materials for making a brush or pad for removing materials, particles, or chemicals from a substrate. The brush or pad includes a rotatable base for supporting a porous pad material. The base include an inner surface and an outer surface and a plurality of channels in the base for interlocking the porous pad material with the base. A porous pad material covers at least a portion of the outer surface of the base and is used for removing material from various substrates. The porous pad material fills one or more of the channels in the base and interlocks the porous pad material with the base. Preferably the channels fluidly connect said inner surface with the outer surface of the base and aid in the alignment of porous pad nodes and the distribution of fluid within the porous pad.
