  • Patent number: 11890169
    Abstract: A device for delivering air or other gas into the area of a skin fold in order to dry the skin and thereby prevent the development of inflammation, rash, or infection features an air manifold that connects to an air or pressurized gas source. The manifold delivers air to a distribution layer, which then distributes air along the length of the skin fold when the layer is within the fold. The distribution layer is formed of a gauze material, with a plurality of tubular longitudinal sections of gauze connected by flat sections of gauze. The distribution layer is fitted between a top and bottom half of the manifold, held fast by spikes extending from within the halves.

  • Patent number: 11480695
    Abstract: Devices, systems, and methods of using one or more memristors as a radiation sensor are enabled. A memristor can be attractive as a sensor due to its passive low power characteristics. Medical and environment monitoring are contemplated use cases. Sensing radiation as part of a security system (at an airport for example) and screening food for radiation exposure are also possible uses. The memristor as a radiation sensor may possibly provide an inexpensive and easy alternative to personal thermoluminescent dosimeters (TLD). Memristor devices with high current and low power operation may be attached with wearable plastic substrates. An example device includes two metal strips with a 50 ?m thick layer of TiO2 memristor material. The device may be made large relative to traditional memristors which are nanometers in scale but its increased thickness can significantly increase the probability of radiation interaction with the memristor material.

  • Patent number: 9674199
    Abstract: A secured device access method is implemented in a web-based device automation system whereby the configuration of an automation application for specific devices in a user's automation environment and the installation of the automation application define the security scope for the automation application. Once the automation application is configured and installed, the automation application is only allowed access to the authorized devices in the user's automation environment and the automation application may not access other devices in the user's environment that have not been authorized.

  • Patent number: 9246921
    Abstract: A secure external access method provides an external system with access to a device automation system implementing automatic control of one or more devices in an automation environment. The external access method enables external system access to devices only when the devices have been authorized for external access and the external system has the proper authentication credential. External access endpoints are dynamically defined by the web service automation applications and are unique to each installed instance of the web service automation application.
