  • Patent number: 11674840
    Abstract: A fluid-level sensor includes a housing, a substrate supported by the housing and defining an arcuate slot completely though a thickness of the substrate, and electrically conductive traces disposed on a backside of the substrate. A wiper assembly is disposed adjacent to a front side of the substrate and includes an arm pivotal relative to the substrate and a wiper attached to the arm. The wiper has an elongate neck extending through the slot and a head attached to the neck and in contact with the traces to close an electric circuit, wherein the wiper is configured to move along the slot and slide across the traces responsive to pivoting of the arm to vary resistance of the electric circuit to output a fluid-level reading.

  • Patent number: 11468896
    Abstract: A method to allow for real-time dictation and transcription with multiple remote endpoints is provided. The method comprises evoking a primary application and a client device APP (or APP) to work with a remote hosted application to process audio for the primary application. The APP connects to the hosted application, and the hosted application receives and processes the audio. The hosted application returns the text to the client device, which text populates the primary application. The APP and/or the hosted application also transmits the text to a remote endpoint, such as, for example, a desktop computer or a laptop computer where the user can interact with the primary application and the text returned by the hosted application.

  • Patent number: 11430444
    Abstract: The technology of the present application provides software as a service (SaaS) executing on a server in a cloud or network. The SaaS receives data from a mobile device of a user over the network. The SaaS processes the data and returns the processed data to a client application executing on a client device of the user, which user is the same as the user of the mobile device wherein there is no direct communication link, wireless or wired, between the mobile device and the client device. In one aspect, the technology of the present application provides the mobile device as a smartphone and a microphone application to be executed on the smartphone.

  • Patent number: 8831940
    Abstract: A dictation system that allows using trainable code phrases is provided. The dictation system operates by receiving audio and recognizing the audio as text. The text/audio may contain code phrases that are identified by a comparator that matches the text/audio and replaces the code phrase with a standard clause that is associated with the code phrase. The database or memory containing the code phrases is loaded with matched standard clauses that may be identified to provide a hierarchal system such that certain code phrases may have multiple meanings depending on the user.

  • Patent number: 8744848
    Abstract: A method and apparatus useful to train speech recognition engines is provided. Many of today's speech recognition engines require training to particular individuals to accurately convert speech to text. The training requires the use of significant resources for certain applications. To alleviate the resources, a trainer is provided with the text transcription and the audio file. The trainer updates the text based on the audio file. The changes are provided to the speech recognition to train the recognition engine and update the user profile. In certain aspects, the training is reversible as it is possible to over train the system such that the trained system is actually less proficient.

  • Patent number: 8737602
    Abstract: A passive, non-amplified audio switch for a computer telephony system is provided. The passive, non-amplified audio switch provides a first telephone jack to receive audio in and send audio out to a first user. The passive, non-amplified audio switch provides a second telephone jack to receive audio in and send audio out to a second user. The passive, non-amplified audio switch further provides audio out and receives audio in from a voice platform, which transcribes audio using a speech to text engine. The passive, non-amplified audio switch provides that audio in from the second user is always provided to the voice platform for transcription.
