  • Publication number: 20260069419
    Abstract: An implantable device includes a battery, a fluid reservoir, an inflatable member, a piezoelectric pump, driver circuitry, and a processor. The battery is configured to store electrical energy. The inflatable member is configured to receive fluid to place the inflatable member in an inflated configuration. The piezoelectric pump is configured to pump fluid from the inflatable member to the fluid reservoir. The driver circuitry is configured to provide a waveform of electrical energy to drive the piezoelectric pump to pump fluid from the inflatable member to the fluid reservoir. The processor is configured to, based on a fluid pressure detected within the inflatable member, cause the driver circuitry to provide a waveform of electrical energy from the battery to the piezoelectric pump to cause the piezoelectric pump to pump fluid from the inflatable member to the fluid reservoir.

  • Publication number: 20260014001
    Abstract: An implantable fluid-operated device includes a battery, a fluid reservoir, an inflatable member, a first piezoelectric pump fluidically connected between the fluid reservoir and the inflatable member, and a pressure sensor. Operating the device includes providing a first waveform of electrical energy from the battery to the piezoelectric pump at a first time to drive the piezoelectric pump to pump fluid from the fluid reservoir to the inflatable member, measuring, with the first pressure sensor, a fluid pressure in a fluidic circuit that includes the fluid reservoir, the piezoelectric pump, and the inflatable member; and, based on a fluid pressure measured by the first pressure sensor, providing a second waveform of electrical energy from the battery to the piezoelectric pump at a second time, the second waveform being different from the first waveform.

  • Patent number: 10896213
    Abstract: The present disclosure is generally directed to a data processing system for customizing content in a voice activated computer network environment. The data processing system can provide an improved voice-based interface by selected response attributes based on response weightings. The selection of predetermined attributes can reduce size of response data and reduce network transmissions by providing more succinct audio-based responses.
