  • Patent number: 12148283
    Abstract: An indicator device for detecting the presence of another device and alerting a user of the indicator device may comprise a housing, an electrical power source, a proximity sensor configured to detect the presence of the other device, and one or more indicator elements operable to alert the user of the indicator device where the proximity sensor is configured to operate the indicator element if the distance between the indicator device and the other device is below a predetermined value. The proximity sensor may be configured to operate the indicator element if the distance between the indicator device and the other device is within a predetermined distance.

  • Publication number: 20240080372
    Abstract: A wireless gateway is provided that is adapted to receive output data from a variety of connected devices such as pumps from a variety of different manufacturers. The gateway connects to each pump associated with an end user using a wired or wireless connection. The gateway receives output data from a pump in a first format that is specific to the type of pump or the manufacturer of the pump. The gateway then converts the output data into a second format based on knowledge about the type or manufacturer of the pump. The gateway then provides output data in the second format to a platform accessible by a service provider and the end user. The output data may be provided through a wired or wireless connection (e.g., cellular connection) between the gateway and a cloud-based platform used by the end user.

  • Patent number: 10925305
    Abstract: Both dairy and non-dairy based high protein ingredient systems that are available in either a liquid or dry powder blend. These ingredient system options have been balanced to provide a rich and creamy mouthfeel which can be easily added into a wide array of products to enhance their protein and nutritional levels without creating the sandy or gritty texture that typically forms. The liquid version has already been pasteurized or asceptically packaged for easy incorporation into other liquid products such as smoothies, yogurts, puddings, jells, toppings, fillings, carbonated or still beverages such as juices of milks, ice cream mixes, frozen yogurts and frozen desserts. The powdered version is designed to be easily blended into other dry mixes, batters, baked goods, cereals, dressings, hummus products, breads, and dry dessert mixes, while liquid additive versions may be added to water, milk products such as liquid milk and yogurt, etc.

  • Patent number: 9723853
    Abstract: A dairy-based yogurt product having a protein level above 15%, sometimes more than 25%, with a smooth and rich texture and no grittiness. The yogurt product includes a particular selection of dairy proteins and other ingredients to raise the gelation temperature of the dairy proteins and avoid causing gelation or precipitation during pasteurization. Additionally, pasteurization temperatures, times and methods are selected to avoid gelation. Starting dairy proteins generally have relatively higher pH levels and low total acidity (TA) levels to help reduce gelation during pasteurization. Ingredients such as buffering agents and sequestering agents may be utilized to help raise the gelation temperature, as well as higher sugar levels which can control hydration of the proteins.

  • Publication number: 20070214016
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for storing electronic healthcare records is disclosed. Embodiments of the invention provide techniques for managing electronic healthcare records in a hybrid domain that includes a high-availability centralized data store and set of distributed data nodes. A set of location policies may be used to determine whether to store an electronic healthcare record in the centralized data store. Over time, events may occur that trigger certain data records to be relocated from the plurality of distributed database nodes to the centralized data store.

  • Publication number: 20070150315
    Abstract: A method and article of manufacture for managing access to electronic healthcare records is disclosed. Embodiments of the invention generally allow individuals to define an access policy regarding electronic healthcare records and health care providers who may have shared access to a data repository storing the records. Typically, the access policy specifies whether access to groups of records that are related to the diagnosis of a particular condition or that are related to a particular episode of care may be shared among multiple providers, including providers not responsible for creating a particular record.

  • Publication number: 20060248453
    Abstract: With a client connected to a server, an agent tool simulates user interaction and traversal of dynamic web pages, causing the server-side processes to serve HTML pages to the client. As these pages are served, they are collected by the agent, modified to include static hyperlinks to replace the server side directed navigation logic, and then persistently stored in local files where they are available for off-line navigation by a browser without the need for accessing the server(s). In effect, the HTML pages are published.
