Publication number: 20210252235Abstract: An apparatus for delivering a therapeutic agent may be associated with a cap for a bottle that contains a prescription for a drug to which the therapeutic agent corresponds. When the prescription bottle contains an opioid, the therapeutic agent may comprise a substance that counteracts the effects of the opioid. The apparatus may include a nozzle that facilitates nasal administration of the therapeutic agent. The apparatus may be capable of attaching to a cap for a prescription bottle, or the apparatus may have a configuration that enables it to serve as the cap for the prescription bottle.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 2, 2021Publication date: August 19, 2021Inventors: Donald Roy Mealing, Todd David Pizitz

When the prescription bottle holds an opioid, the therapeutic agent may be a substance that counteracts the effects of the opioid. The apparatus may include a nozzle that facilitates nasal administration of the therapeutic agent. The apparatus may be capable of attaching to a cap for a prescription bottle, or the apparatus may have a configuration that enables it to serve as the cap for the prescription bottle.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2018Date of Patent: March 2, 2021Assignee: CounterAct, LLCInventors: Donald Roy Mealing, Todd David Pizitz

Patent number: 9946333Abstract: An accessory facilitating interaction with a projected image at least partially sourced by the image generation device. The accessory receives an input image from a device, and projects at least a derived image of the input image onto a surface on which the accessory sits. For instance, the accessory might project the input image itself, or perhaps some post-processed version of the input image. A camera system captures data representing user interaction with the projected image. Based on this data, an image input event is detected, and then communicated to the device. For instance, if the image generation device were a touch-sensitive device, the device may respond to the user contacting the projected image the same as it would if the user touched the image generation device at the same corresponding location. Embodiments described herein also relate color compensation of a displayed image.Type: GrantFiled: April 19, 2016Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: MEP TECH, INC.Inventors: Mark L. Davis, Matthew Lund Stoker, William Lorenzo Swank, Donald Roy Mealing, Roger H. Hoole, Jeffrey F. Taylor

Publication number: 20180024420Abstract: A projector that projects a visible image as well as a non-visible image. The non-visible image might be used for any purpose, but an example is in order to provide depth information regarding physical item(s) interacting with the projected visible image. The projector includes multiple projecting units (e.g., one for each pixel to be displayed), each including light-emitting elements configured to emit light in the visible spectrum. Some or all of those projecting units might also include an emitting element for emitting light in the non-visible spectrum so as to collectively emit a non-visible image. Optics may be positioned to project the visible image and the non-visible image. A depth sensing module detects depth of surfaces within the scope of the non-visible image using a reflected portion of the non-visible image. Methods for projecting an image are also disclosed.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2017Publication date: January 25, 2018Inventors: Donald Roy Mealing, Mark L. Davis, Roger H. Hoole, Matthew L. Stoker, W. Lorenzo Swank, Michael J. Bradshaw

Publication number: 20150049078Abstract: The projection of interactive images such that different images are pre-edited so that when projected, the image is better suited for viewing from a particular perspective. Thus, a variety of images might be projected such that some are suitable for one perspective, some are suitable for another perspective, and so forth. For instance, one image might be edited so that when projected, the projected first image is presented for better viewing from a first perspective. Another image might be edited so that when projected, the projected second image is presented for better viewing from a second perspective.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 15, 2013Publication date: February 19, 2015Inventors: Donald Roy Mealing, Mark L.
