  • Patent number: 11696589
    Abstract: Described is a system for treating food products, the system comprising at least one machine comprising: a first container for treating a food product; at least one temperature sensor adapted to detect a temperature inside the container; and a processing and control unit, operatively connected to the at least one sensor to receive the temperature detected and comprising a module for receiving and transmitting at least the temperature detected. The system also comprises a plurality of processing nodes defining an information write module configured to write to a distributed architecture database of the distributed ledger type information indicating at least the temperature received from the receiving and transmitting module.

  • Patent number: 11540533
    Abstract: A method for making and dispensing liquid or semi-liquid food products is implemented in a machine including a one containment tank for containing a liquid basic product, a processing circuit for that product, to obtain a liquid or semi-liquid food product, a dispenser for dispensing the food product, an actuator acting on the basic product and/or on the food product and/or on parts of the machine, and a user interface for controlling the making and dispensing. The method, implemented by a control and processing unit connected with the user interface, includes: measuring one or more operating parameters, activating a first data communication for obtaining the operating parameters, receiving the operating parameters, activating a second data communication with the user interface for receiving commands representing selectable settings of preparations, and controlling the actuator as a function of the operating parameters and commands received.

  • Publication number: 20210358641
    Abstract: A health supervision system, including: an identification station, configured to obtain at least one first data item indicating an identity of a user, a health station configured to obtain at least one second data item indicating a health situation of the user identified, at least one local data repository, and a control unit, configured for receiving the at least one first data item and the at least one second data item, calculating a string, using a cryptographic function, as a function of the at least one first data item and/or the at least one second data item, storing the at least one first data item and/or the at least one second data item in the at least one local data repository, and transmitting the string to a distributed architecture database of the distributed ledger type to write the string to the distributed architecture database.

  • Publication number: 20170104833
    Abstract: A software-based system for prioritizing Information Objects on the basis of their importance to a particular potential recipient or recipients. The operative concept is broadly referred to as the “Value of Information.” The inventive system decides to send (or not send) a particular Information object to a particular user based on an inferred “value” that particular Information Object has for that particular User.
