  • Publication number: 20230385067
    Abstract: An application or other non-transitory computer-readable medium for storing instructions is disclosed. The instructions are executed by at least one processing device which is configured to store at least one user preference. The at least one user preference comprises a selection of one or more monitored applications and one or more warning thresholds corresponding to the one or more monitored applications. The one or more warning thresholds comprise a user selected time period. Further, time information associated with a use of the one or more monitored applications, is obtained. The time information is determined according to an accessibility event notifications function, on an operating system of a device. Further, the at least one user preference and the obtained time information are compared to determine whether the one or more warning thresholds have been exceeded. Thereafter, a notification is delivered to the user, upon exceeding the one or more warning thresholds.

  • Patent number: 11815094
    Abstract: Rotary positive displacement machines based on trochoidal geometry that includes a helical rotor that undergoes planetary motion relative to a helical stator are described. The rotor can have a hypotrochoidal-based cross-sectional shape, with the corresponding stator cavity cross-sectional shape being the outer envelope of the rotor cross-sectional shape as it undergoes planetary motion, or the stator cavity can have an epitrochoidal-based cross-sectional shape with the corresponding rotor cross-sectional shape being the inner envelope of the stator cross-sectional shape as it undergoes planetary motion. Such machines can be configured so that the stator axis is spaced from the rotor axis, the rotor is configured to spin about its axis and the stator is configured to spin about its axis, and/or the rotor and the stator are held at a fixed eccentricity so that the rotor undergoes planetary motion relative to the stator, but does not orbit.

  • Patent number: 11802558
    Abstract: Rotary positive displacement machines based on trochoidal geometry and including a helical rotor that undergoes planetary motion relative to a helical stator can be designed and configured so that the axial load or rotor pressure force is positive, negative, or neutral. In some embodiments, a change in axial load, caused by a change in differential pressure across the machine, can be used to trigger a change in a mechanical configuration of the machine.

  • Publication number: 20230252579
    Abstract: A damage assessment module operating on a computer system automatically evaluates a roof, estimating damage to the roof by analyzing a point cloud of a roof. The damage assessment module identifies individual shingles from the point cloud and detects potentially damaged areas on each of the shingles. The damage assessment module then maps the potentially damaged areas of each shingle back to the point cloud to determine which areas of the roof are damaged. Based on the estimation, the damage assessment module generates a report on the roof damage.

  • Publication number: 20230196475
    Abstract: A damage assessment module operating on a computer system automatically evaluates a property, estimating damage to the property by analyzing a point cloud of a property. The damage assessment module identifies individual point clusters or segments from the point cloud and detects potentially damaged areas of the property surface by identifying outlier points in the point clusters. The damage assessment module may be used to determine the financial cost of the damage and/or determine whether the property should be replaced or repaired. In addition to eliminating the need for an estimator to visit the property in person, the damage assessment module improves the consistency and accuracy associated with estimating damage to a property.

  • Patent number: 11676406
    Abstract: A 3D objects training dataset is augmented by accessing a 3D point cloud representation of an object and by applying an augmentation routine on the point cloud to generate an augmented point cloud. The augmentation routine comprises randomly selecting an execution order of at least one of (i) adding a noise to the point cloud, (ii) applying a geometric transformation on the point cloud and (iii) applying a degradation on the point cloud. The randomly selected execution order of these operations on the point cloud is applied, and the augmented point cloud is added to the objects training dataset. A machine learning algorithm (MLA) is trained by inputting the 3D point cloud representation to generate an output, comparing the output with an expected label associated with the point cloud representation to determine a measure of error on the output, and iteratively adjusting various weights associated with nodes of the MLA.

  • Publication number: 20230103448
    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, systems and methods for managing pain of a subject. A system includes one or more physiological sensors configured to sense a physiological signal indicative of patient brain activity. The physiological signals may include an electroencephalography signal, a magnetoencephalography signal, or a brain-evoked potential. The system may extract from the brain activity signal one or more signal metrics indicative of strength or pattern of brain electromagnetic activity associated with pain, and generate a pain score using the one or more signal metrics. The pain score can be output to a patient or a process. The system may select an electrode configuration for pain-relief electrostimulation based on the pain score, and deliver a closed-loop pain therapy according to the selected electrode configuration.

  • Publication number: 20230098259
    Abstract: Sealing in rotary positive displacement machines based on trochoidal geometry that comprise a helical rotor that undergoes planetary motion within a helical stator is described. Seals can be mounted on the rotor, the stator, or both. The rotor can have a hypotrochoidal cross-section, with the corresponding stator cavity profile being the outer envelope of the rotor as it undergoes planetary motion, or the stator cavity can have an epitrochoidal cross-section with the corresponding rotor profile being the inner envelope of the trochoid as it undergoes planetary motion. In some embodiments, the geometry is offset in a manner that provides advantages with respect to sealing in the rotary machine. In multi-stage embodiments, the rotor-stator geometry remains substantially constant or varies along the axis of the rotary machine.
