  • Patent number: 11968595
    Abstract: A method of determining a physical location for an address. The method includes receiving from a first global positioning system on a vehicle a first set of global positioning data indicative of a vehicle location. The method may also receive from a second global positioning system on a portable electronic device a second set of global positioning data indicative of a portable electronic device location. The method may also receive a set of location metadata associated with a picture. The method determines a residence location from the first set of global positioning data, the second set of global positioning data, or the set of location metadata. The method then associates the physical location to the address.

  • Patent number: 11953429
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure include at least one building component detection sensor device configured to be deployed within (or proximate to) a building comprised of a plurality of building components. The at least one building component detection sensor device is configured to detect data relating to at least one building component of the plurality of building components. In addition, a building component property determination system includes a processor configured to execute instructions stored in memory to determine one or more properties of the at least one building component based at least in part on the data detected by the at least one building component detection sensor device.

  • Patent number: 11928741
    Abstract: A system may include a router that may receive a plurality of data packets from one or more devices that communicatively couples to the router. The system may also include at least one processor that identifies an identity of a device based on a data packet received by the router from the device, generate an insurance policy that includes the device in response to identifying the identity of the device, and sends a notification indicative of the insurance policy to a computing device in response to generating the insurance policy.

  • Publication number: 20210196106
    Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to medical devices, systems, and methods for locating devices and/or anatomy during medical procedures. More particularly, in some embodiments, the disclosure relates to medical device and/or anatomy locating devices, access devices, and systems and methods thereof, for use during, e.g., gastrojejunostomy procedures. In an aspect, a medical device locator may include an elongate member (such as sheath or guidewire) having a proximal end, a distal end, a longitudinal axis, and a length extending along the longitudinal axis. A location device may be disposed along the length of the elongate member.

  • Patent number: 5396366
    Abstract: An endoscope is disclosed which is designed to transmit light to the area under observation and allows the light to make contact with the image plane, without the need of a fiber optic bundle. The ocular section of the endoscope, in addition to housing the lenses required to magnify the image for viewing, contains a relay lens whose diameter is less than the diameter of the rod lenses in the relay section. Light is then reflected through a beam director surrounding the ocular relay lens and transmitted to the objective through the excess diameter of the larger diameter relay lenses. Additionally, the ocular section is separable from the relay and objective sections, which are considered disposable, so that it can be reused.
