  • Publication number: 20240038357
    Abstract: A medication adherence service receives patients' medication schedules from health care professionals and systems. A medication adherence device is communicatively coupled to the medication adherence service. Based upon a patient's prescribed medication schedule, the medication adherence device manages and monitors a patient's adherence to the prescribed medication schedule. The medication adherence device captures images of compartments holding medications in accordance with the prescribed medication schedule. These images are analyzed to aid the patient in filling the compartments and to manage and monitor the patient in adhering to the prescribed schedule.

  • Patent number: 10972504
    Abstract: A device is capable of connecting to both a WLAN and a cellular data network. Preference is given to using the WLAN. However, prior to connecting to the WLAN, the cellular data network is used to connect to a remote portal from which the device receives parameters to connect to the WLAN. The portal initiates prompts to receive the WLAN parameters that it provides to the device. Upon successfully connecting to the portal the device deactivates the cellular data connection. Upon there being network path errors on the preferred network connection, the device is capable of activating the secondary cellular data connection to the portal to report errors.

  • Publication number: 20180165108
    Abstract: A script provides instructions for a Bluetooth LE client to interface with a Bluetooth LE server. Such scripts may be created manually or may be generated by a Bluetooth LE client reading the GATT profile of a Bluetooth LE server, in which case actions are generated based upon the permission the client has with respect to each characteristic. In some cases the generated scripts may require additional instructions before they are deployed. A service provides interfaces to accept scripts, check the scripts for errors, and generates alerts for errors or when additional instructions are required. When the service determines that scripts are ready for use by Bluetooth LE clients the service distributes them to said clients.

  • Patent number: 8869236
    Abstract: One embodiment includes a non-transitory computer readable medium having instructions executable by a processor to implement a method. The method includes receiving user configuration data for a network device, the configuration system being coupled to a service network. The method also includes storing device configuration data in a configuration database coupled to the service network, the device configuration data being based on the user configuration data and service network data. The method also includes receiving a configuration request at the configuration system from the network device in response to the network device being unconfigured and connected in a user network. The method further includes transmitting the device configuration data from the configuration database to the network device in response to the configuration request.

  • Publication number: 20070171098
    Abstract: A button box provides additional keys that can be used in conjunction with a telephone. In one embodiment, a button box is configured by associating it with a telephone and by programming its keys. When a key on the button box is activated, a key press event is sent from the button box to the associated phone. The phone treats the key press event as if a key on the phone itself had been activated and forwards the event to the voice switch appliance associated with the phone. (Alternatively, the key press event is sent from the button box directly to a voice switch appliance.) The button box's user interface is controlled by a voice switch appliance.

  • Patent number: 7003091
    Abstract: A simultaneous hunt group system and method are provided. A call status module notices an incoming call to a simultaneous hunt group and offers the call to a plurality of endpoints. One of the plurality of endpoints answers the call. After the call is answered, a resource allocation module allocates resources for a communications channel, and a call transfer module transfers the caller to the agent that answered the call.
