  • Publication number: 20240169057
    Abstract: A method or a system accesses an envelope stored in a first database. The envelope includes a set of secure electronic documents, a workflow of tasks, and one or more events associated with the tasks. The system also accesses a second database that stores a credential of an entity associated with the envelope. In response to authenticating the credential, the system receives and caches an access token in a third database. Further, the system monitors the events associated with the tasks in the workflow. In response to detecting an occurrence of at least one event, the system generates and sends a message with the cached access token to a webhook listener. After authentication of the entity using the access token, the webhook listener is caused to generate and send a notification to an administrator of the entity.

  • Publication number: 20240131345
    Abstract: A system is provided for identifying and reducing noise in a therapeutic procedure. For example, the system may be configured to measure one or more signals with cardiac activity. The system may be configured to then identify one or more sources of noise that are distorting the one or more signals with cardiac activity and may reduce the one or more sources of noise from the one or more signals with cardiac activity. Subsequently, the system may be configured to determine one or more aggregate cardiac-derived metrics and/or save processed cardiac data based on the one or more signals with cardiac activity with the one or more sources of noise reduced. Additionally, the system may be configured to determine one or more parameters for applying an electrical signal to an anatomical element of a patient based on the one or more aggregate cardiac-derived metrics and/or saved processed cardiac data.

  • Patent number: 11780690
    Abstract: A single drive dual hopper conveyor system is presented having a center conveyor system and a pair of side conveyor systems that are connected to one another. A single motor is connected to the center conveyor system and drives movement of a belt within the center conveyor system. The connection of the center conveyor system to the side conveyor system causes the belts of the side conveyor systems to be simultaneously driven as the belt of the center conveyor system is driven. This arrangement eliminates the need for multiple motors. A guide at the center of the belts is configured to guide the belts through the center of the housings and prevent the buildup of grain within a cut-out section of the flights of the belt that is needed to allow access to the links of the belts to facilitate driving of the belts.

  • Publication number: 20230312321
    Abstract: A container filling valve may include a shuttle and a drive sleeve that are magnetically coupled. Movement of the drive sleeve may move the shuttle from a position in which the filling valve is closed to a position in which the filling valve is open.

A low flow setpoint system may be configured to arrest closing of a filling valve when that filling valve is partially closed. A pressure control system may be configured to maintain a desired pressure in a reservoir or in a flow path from that reservoir. A product recirculation system may be configured to adjust flow rate in the product recirculation system.

  • Patent number: 11669986
    Abstract: Enhanced methods and systems for generating both a geometry model and an optical-reflectance model (an object reconstruction model) for a physical object, based on a sparse set of images of the object under a sparse set of viewpoints. The geometry model is a mesh model that includes a set of vertices representing the object's surface. The reflectance model is SVBRDF that is parameterized via multiple channels (e.g., diffuse albedo, surface-roughness, specular albedo, and surface-normals). For each vertex of the geometry model, the reflectance model includes a value for each of the multiple channels. The object reconstruction model is employed to render graphical representations of a virtualized object (a VO based on the physical object) within a computation-based (e.g., a virtual or immersive) environment. Via the reconstruction model, the VO may be rendered from arbitrary viewpoints and under arbitrary lighting conditions.

  • Publication number: 20220335636
    Abstract: A scene reconstruction system renders images of a scene with high-quality geometry and appearance and supports view synthesis, relighting, and scene editing. Given a set of input images of a scene, the scene reconstruction system trains a network to learn a volume representation of the scene that includes separate geometry and reflectance parameters. Using the volume representation, the scene reconstruction system can render images of the scene under arbitrary viewing (view synthesis) and lighting (relighting) locations. Additionally, the scene reconstruction system can render images that change the reflectance of objects in the scene (scene editing).
