Abstract: A method performed by a surgical system. The method includes receiving 1) a video stream captured by a camera inside an operating room and 2) an audio stream that includes sounds captured by a microphone inside the operating room. The method detects an audio event within the operating room by performing an acoustic analysis upon the audio stream. The method produces a timestamp based on the detected audio event and based on an internal clock of the electronic device and tags the timestamp to the video stream and the audio stream. The method stores the tagged image stream and the tagged audio stream in memory.

Abstract: A sterilization system includes a vessel defining a chamber configured to receive one or more materials, a hydrogen peroxide solution positioned within the chamber, and a nonreactive fiber matrix positioned within the chamber, wherein evacuation of the chamber causes vaporization of the hydrogen peroxide in the hydrogen peroxide solution to disinfect the materials positioned in the chamber.

Abstract: An other end connection including an inner housing assembly, including an upper housing and a coupling assembly. The coupling assembly includes a threaded sleeve positioned around the upper housing. The threaded sleeve includes a first set of threads on a first axial end and a second set of threads on a second axial end. The coupling assembly also includes a threaded ring threaded to the threaded sleeve and positioned radially between the threaded sleeve and the upper housing.

Abstract: A sterilization system includes a controller, a transformer including a primary side in communication with the controller and secondary side, an ozone generator in communication with the secondary side of the transformer and the controller, and a power source in communication with the controller, wherein the ozone generator ionizes atmospheric oxygen through the application of corona discharge.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to agricultural canopies used primarily to control the amount of light, moisture and heat reaching growing plants within the canopy footprint. More specifically, it relates to mechanisms for pulling a flexible canopy over a support structure and then for removing the canopy to uncover the structure and the plants below. The mechanisms include an arm mounted rotationally on a base. When the arm is rotated in one direction the canopy is pulled over the support structure and when the arm is rotated in the other direction the canopy is pulled off the support structure.

Abstract: A representative system for dispensing liquid vapor to a user includes: a vapor-producing device having a vaporizer, a vapor outlet, a vapor identification system, and a liquid cartridge receptacle, the liquid cartridge receptacle being configured to receive a liquid cartridge, the liquid cartridge being configured to contain a dispensable liquid, the liquid cartridge having identification information configured to identify the liquid contained therein, the vaporizer being configured to selectively vaporize an amount of liquid from the liquid cartridge coupled to the receptacle and deliver a corresponding dose of vaporized liquid to the vapor outlet for inhalation by the user, and the vapor identification system being configured to determine the identification information corresponding to the liquid cartridge coupled to the receptacle and communicate the identification information of the liquid cartridge to a mobile device.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method and apparatus for manufacturing a package with a rigid or semi-rigid container and a polymeric or plastic header with a reclosure, such as a zipper. The rigid or semi-rigid container is typically provided in a stack of flat containers. The header is sealed, glued or otherwise secured to the containers. The container, typically inverted, is filled, and the bottom is formed by folding and sealing the bottom portion of the container.
