  • Publication number: 20220400321
    Abstract: A brushing tracker configured to be mounted to a toothbrush has a motion sensor and a transceiver that collect and output raw motion data. The raw motion data is received by a relay and forwarded to a cloud-based remote processing system that processes the raw motion data to determine brushing adequacy based on predetermined criteria. The motion sensor and transceiver are disposed in a flexible case. An attachment band enables the brushing tracker to be affixed to a standard toothbrush for use and affixed to a different toothbrush when desired.

  • Patent number: 8212688
    Abstract: A method of controlling traffic signals at a road intersection, which has a plurality of signal groups, each of which controls at least one direction of traffic within the intersection. The method comprises the steps of obtaining and utilizing traffic data to calculate a current traffic state and the rate of change in the traffic state. The method further comprises formulating at least one action and the duration of the action in response to these calculations. Each action comprises switching at least one traffic signal. One or more policies based on the calculations and the action are resolved. A continuous decision making process is applied to evaluate a reward for the policies resolved and a policy that maximizes the reward is selected.
