  • Publication number: 20250047792
    Abstract: Systems, methods and products for uploading scanned documents for collaboration. A user chooses, prior to uploading a document, whether the user wishes for the document to be converted to a text-searchable PDF and/or processed to recognize objects in the image. When the document is scanned, it is uploaded to the cloud based system with the user-selected options, and the PDF/image is processed. The upload may be a multipart, parallel upload to increase the speed of the upload. When the PDF/image is received at the cloud based system, it is processed according to the user-selected options to generate metadata (text or recognized objects) which is stored with the uploaded document. The PDF/image and metadata are shared with users who can then search the metadata for the PDF/image.

  • Publication number: 20240394294
    Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a document management system having a label management user interface. The document management system may be configured to display document content in either a document view mode or a document edit mode in which document content is displayed in a content panel of the graphical user interface. When in the document view mode and an authenticated user has edit permissions with respect to a current document, the graphical user interface is configured to display a label management user interface including an array of user-selectable label graphical objects and a list of recommended labels selected in accordance with a label score. The label score for each recommended label is determined with respect to the current document based on a set of multiple heuristics including proximity of the document with respect to other labeled documents in a hierarchical element tree.

  • Publication number: 20230337966
    Abstract: A handheld, conforming capacitive sensing apparatus configured to measure Sub-Epidermal Moisture (SEM) as a mean to detect and monitor the formation of pressure ulcers. The device incorporates an array of electrodes which are excited to measure and scan SEM in a programmable and multiplexed manner by a battery-less RF-powered chip. The scanning operation is initiated by an interrogator which excites a coil embedded in the apparatus and provides the needed energy burst to support the scanning/reading operation. Each electrode measures the equivalent sub-epidermal capacitance corresponding and representing the moisture content.

  • Patent number: 11324456
    Abstract: An in-ear optical sensor device sits deep within the ear canal of a subject such that is in the cartilaginous region and/or the bony region of the ear canal where effects from temporomandibular joint activity or other movement, and external light, are limited. The device has a lateral housing and a medial articulating head joined at an articulation joint so that the medial articulating head may be angled relative to the lateral housing to help the device fit within tortuous ear canals. The device also includes a seal configured to conform to the shape of the ear canal to physically support the device to further limit movement and block environmental light. An audio receiver is also included in the device.
