Patent number: 9546874Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media are provided for identifying an optimal route to a destination for a user. The optimal route is customized for the user based on one or more route factors. The route factors may include a physical limitation of the user or a restricted area of a healthcare environment. The route factors may also include obstacles within the route or user preferences. An optimal route is identified as such when no route factors conflict with the optimal route.Type: GrantFiled: December 29, 2010Date of Patent: January 17, 2017Assignee: CERNER INNOVATION, INC.Inventors: David Compton, James Eaton, Justin Nelson, David Pierre, Matthew Sawka

Patent number: 9546836Abstract: A bump stock and interface system for a semi-automatic firearm. In use, the user grasps a handle with one hand and places an index finger of the same hand firmly on a finger rest. When intending to fire a round of ammunition, the user pushes the firearm receiver forward with another hand so that the trigger collides with the immobilized finger on the finger rest. Recoil force separates the trigger from the user's finger on the finger rest. The user again pushes forward the receiver to repeat the firing cycle. A lock is selectively activated to arrest longitudinal movement of the firearm relative to the handle, thereby returning the firearm to normal semi-automatic functionality. The lock includes a retractable pin having a tip that rides in a track having a rear stop to limit over-travel of the handle.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2012Date of Patent: January 17, 2017Assignee: Slide Fire Solutions LPInventors: Jeremiah Cottle, David Compton

Publication number: 20150120327Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer storage media are provided for optimizing workflows by monitoring a healthcare environment. Data may be compiled from various sources to monitor interactions within the healthcare environment. Both interactions with individuals and interactions with a healthcare system may be monitored. Each of location data, clinical data, and system data, among others, may be combined to monitor the healthcare environment. By combining the data from various sources, a user is able to get a complete picture of the healthcare environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 30, 2014Publication date: April 30, 2015Inventors: David Compton, James Eaton, Matthew Gadzinski, Brannon Garvert, Mario Manese, Justin Nelson, David Pierre

Patent number: 8560399Abstract: A host computing device conducts scheduled repetitive searches for a resource to be purchased and delivery according to a specified delivery schedule. A customer provides the host with a description of the resource and provides a specified delivery schedule. The host computing device conducts automated scheduled repetitive searches for the resource, selects a vendor offering the resource based on a criterion (e.g., lowest price), and conducts the respective purchases such that the resources are delivered in accordance with the specified delivery schedule. Here, the resource may be purchased from a first vendor in a first purchase and a second, different vendor in a subsequent second purchase for the resource.Type: GrantFiled: November 29, 2010Date of Patent: October 15, 2013Assignee: Netplenish, Inc.Inventors: David Compton, Steven Markowitz

Patent number: 8474169Abstract: A handle (20) for rapidly firing a semi-automatic firearm (22) having a trigger (24). The handle (20) includes a grip portion (52) defining a channel (54). A block (60) that is connected to the firearm (22) is slidably disposed in the channel (54) for allowing longitudinal movement of the firearm (22) relative to the handle (20). The handle (20) also includes a trigger guard (66) disposed on one side of the trigger (24) and extending longitudinally forward of the trigger (24) by a predetermined distance (D) to an open end. The trigger guard (66) presents a finger rest (70) for placing a trigger finger (74) on the trigger guard (66). The trigger guard (66) restricts access to the trigger (24) until the firearm (22) is moved longitudinally forward by the predetermined distance (D) relative to the handle (20).Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2010Date of Patent: July 2, 2013Assignee: Slide Fire Solutions, LPInventors: Jeremiah Cottle, David Compton

Patent number: 8356542Abstract: A bump stock and interface system for a semi-automatic firearm. The interface system includes first and second bearing elements. A handle is provided with an integral finger rest. The bearing elements are configured to wholly disengage and re-engage from the handle via a straight linear disconnecting motion. In use, the user grasps the handle with one hand and places an index finger of the same hand firmly on the finger rest. When intending to fire a round of ammunition, the user pushes the receiver forward with their other hand so that the trigger collides with the finger. Recoil force quickly separates the trigger from the user's finger on the finger rest. The user again pushes forward the receiver to repeat the firing cycle. A lock can be selectively engaged to prevent longitudinal movement of the firearm relative to the handle, thereby returning the firearm to normal semi-automatic functionality.Type: GrantFiled: May 4, 2012Date of Patent: January 22, 2013Assignee: Slide Fire Solutions LPInventors: Jeremiah Cottle, David Compton

Publication number: 20120215657Abstract: A vendor sends, to a host, affiliate links for resources that the vendor is offering for sale and formatting for its on-line order form. The host uses the affiliate links and a vendor selection criterion to select a vendor from which to purchase a customer's desired resource. The host populates, without further customer input, the order form of the selected vendor. The host receives a purchase availability status for the desired resource and, when the desired resource is available, completes the purchase from the selected vendor, without any additional customer input. When the desired resource is unavailable, the host populates an order form of another selected vendor using the respective formatting and completes the purchase without any additional customer input.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 1, 2012Publication date: August 23, 2012Inventors: David Compton, Steven Markowitz, Scott de Rozic, Mark Evans

Publication number: 20110106565Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media for providing proximity-based task lists to clinicians are provided. In embodiments, a task is identified as well as a clinician that is near a location associated with the task. In addition to identifying clinicians that are near the location associated with the task, clinicians authorized to complete the task and available to complete the task are identified. If all criteria are met, a clinician may be assigned to the task and notified of the task. Additionally, a task may be reassigned to a different clinician should any of the criteria fail to be satisfied at any point.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 29, 2010Publication date: May 5, 2011Applicant: CERNER INNOVATION, INC.Inventors: David Compton, James Eaton, Justin Nelson, David Pierre, Matthew Sawka

Patent number: 7568934Abstract: An electrical connector configured to engage a header is provided. The connector includes a plug that is configured to be inserted into a header cavity and a sleeve member that surrounds an outer plug surface. The sleeve member includes a plurality of fingers biased to flex away from the plug surface in a flared arrangement. The connector also includes a sealing band that grips the plug surface. Also, the connector includes a collar that is configured to slide in the axial direction. When the collar moves from the retracted position to the locked position, the collar deflects the fingers against the wall surface of the header causing the fingers to cover the sealing band and the sealing band is compressed between the plug body and the header.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2008Date of Patent: August 4, 2009Assignee: Tyco Electronics CorporationInventors: Brian James Williams, David Compton Heck, Thomas Allen Brungard
