  • Patent number: 11535178
    Abstract: The vehicle dash-mounted hand sanitizer dispenser is configured for use with a vehicle. The vehicle is further defined with a passenger compartment and a vent. The vehicle dash-mounted hand sanitizer dispenser mounts on the vent. The vehicle dash-mounted hand sanitizer dispenser is configured for use with a hand sanitizer. The vehicle dash-mounted hand sanitizer dispenser stores and dispenses the hand sanitizer. The vehicle dash-mounted hand sanitizer dispenser comprises a reservoir structure and a control circuit. The reservoir structure forms the fluidic connection necessary to: a) contain the hand sanitizer; and, b) discharge the hand sanitizer into the passenger compartment. The control circuit is an electric circuit. The control circuit provides the motive forces necessary to pump the hand sanitizer into the passenger compartment. The control circuit initiates the operation by detecting motion near the discharge point of the hand sanitizer.

  • Patent number: 9900395
    Abstract: The disclosure herein concerns a method of estimating Internet traffic including taking a size of a target population based on at least one of census data and third party data, identifying a percentage of the target population that displays an online behavior, receiving clickstream data at a host processing facility from a clickstream panel that connotes Internet activity of individual members of the clickstream panel, identifying a fraction of participants within the clickstream panel that exhibit the online behavior, and producing, at the host processing facility, an estimate of the target population's Internet activity by first scaling the clickstream data for the participants in the clickstream panel exhibiting the online behavior so that it matches the percentage in the target population and then scaling the data for all members of the clickstream panel by the relative size of the target population.
