Abstract: A whole home voice (WHV) system of an automation network is described. The WHV system may be of and/or for an automation network connecting an automation server, an automation controller, and any number of automation devices. The WHV system includes any number of voice input devices for receiving voice inputs vocalized by a user of the automation network; and an automation controller for executing any of: (1) a voice coordinator for coordinating WHV system operations, (2) any number of voice input proxies for proxying for the voice input devices; and (2) a voice daemon executing any number of voice daemon instances each respectively associated with one of any number of voice targets, wherein the automation controller is communicatively connected to the voice targets.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a device for absorbing heat from a body. More particularly, the invention pertains to an improved device which utilizes a gel material comprising liquids and solids to absorb, over an extended period of time, heat from a body.

Abstract: An imaging system consisting of a cell-phone with camera as the detection part of an optical train which includes other components. Optionally, an illumination system to create controlled contrast in the sample. Uses include but are not limited to disease diagnosis, symptom analysis, and post-procedure monitoring, and other applications to humans, animals, and plants.

Abstract: An improved system and methods for enhancing the imaging of cameras included with wireless mobile devices, such as cellular phone or tablets. The imaging system includes a releasable optical attachment for imaging skin surfaces and cavities of the body. The releasable optical attachment comprises optical enhancement elements such as magnifying lenses, illumination diverting elements, and filters. Images can be viewed and analyzed on the mobile device, or transmitted to another location/device for analysis by a person or software. The results can be used to provide diagnosis, or for a variety of other applications including image comparison over time and product recommendations.
