Patent number: 12562240Abstract: Systems and methods classify pollutants based on multifactor analysis of data from sensors in a monitored area and contextual data from remote or local sources. Classifying a pollutant in air at a monitored area may include operating a particulate matter sensor to produce raw data representing measurements of particulate matter in the air, evaluating pulses in the raw data to determine a pulse width and a maximum for each pulse, and identifying a type for the pollutant in the air using a classification model and data including the pulse widths and the maxima of the pulses. The data use in classification may further include non-particulate measurements from local chemical or environmental sensors and contextual data from the cloud or from local user devices.Type: GrantFiled: November 12, 2021Date of Patent: February 24, 2026Assignee: Wynd Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Jason Duy Vuu, Igor Reznichenko, Eric Munoz, Raymond Rui Wu, Mengheng Touch

Patent number: 11775138Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing an email assistant options bar. An assistant engine of an email application can identify contacts of a user profile that the user interacts with the most frequently based on a set of rules. When a user interacts with an email in the email application using a predetermined input type, the assistant engine can display the email assistant options bar. The email assistant options bar can include icons representing the identified contacts that the user interacts with the most frequently and a set of actions that can be performed to interact with the contacts. Some examples of actions can include forwarding the selected email, calling a contact, and setting up a meeting. The user can select one or more of the contacts and one of the actions. The assistant engine can perform the selected action with the selected contact as the recipient.Type: GrantFiled: July 13, 2021Date of Patent: October 3, 2023Assignee: VMware, Inc.Inventors: Ratna Paul Saka, Eric Munoz

Publication number: 20220176006Abstract: Air purification systems and methods use a flat, wall-mounted enclosure containing a photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) system to remove airborne contaminants. The horizontal width and vertical height of the PCO system being large compared to its thickness to maximize catalytic surface area and efficiently use light to drive reactions. PCO performance may be further optimized through contouring a catalytic panel to increase surface area. The structure and does not require floor or counter space, and a visible face of the wall-mounted structure may have an aesthetic feature.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 2, 2021Publication date: June 9, 2022Inventors: Jason Duy Vuu, Eric Munoz, Raymond Rui Wu

Patent number: 9828858Abstract: A turbine blade airfoil (25, 31R, 31M, 31T, 72) comprising an outer surface shape defined by Cartesian coordinates of successive transverse profiles at radial increments as set forth in Tables 1a to 1k, wherein each table defines a transverse sectional profile characterized by a smooth curve connecting the coordinates, and the surface shape comprises a smooth surface connecting the sectional profiles. The blade may include a tip shroud with edge profiles defined by Cartesian coordinates set forth in Table 2a and 2b. A gusset/fillet may be provided between the blade airfoil and the tip shroud, with a planar diagonal surface over most of a diagonal bracing area of the gusset/fillet.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2014Date of Patent: November 28, 2017Assignee: SIEMENS ENERGY, INC.Inventors: Eric Munoz, Edwin Lee Kite, John Pula, Charles M.
