Abstract: A clothes dryer exhaust vent (dryer vent) and the method of installation in a residential or commercial building exterior foundation wall, during construction of a building, to save the expense and costs of a clothes dryer exhaust vent installation after a building has been constructed, to reduce repair and additional construction costs. The dryer vent has a rigid wall mounting plate (plastic or metal) that is mounted in the construction block array of an exterior building foundation wall while the wall is under construction. The clothes dryer exhaust vent includes a clothes dryer exhaust vent tube connected through the rigid, wall mounting plate (manually removable), an exterior (outdoors) hemispherical-shaped clothes dryer vent open end cover assembly, manually removable for cleaning and removing lint, said cover assembly including a clothes dryer exhaust vent flapper valve.

Abstract: A method and system for presence and vitals detection of a living subject is disclosed herein. The system comprises a passive long wave infrared (“LWIR”) sensor, a radar, a processor and a user interface. The LWIR sensor is utilized to detect block-body radiation originating from a living subject. The processor is configured to run an algorithm to perform digital signal processing on data provided by the radar and the LWIR sensor to generate presence and vitals information for the living subject for communication to the user interface.

Abstract: A method and system that is integrated in order to provide an automated control system for the user, which provides messaging to bedroom environmental control systems as a function of the status of the user's sleep state is disclosed herein. The system comprises a sleep monitoring sub-system and a bedroom environmental control sub-system. The sleep monitoring sub-system is configured to transmit the subject's sleep progression data to an interface for the bedroom environmental control system. The bedroom environmental control system is configured to modify a bedroom environment based on the subject's sleep progression data.

Abstract: A traction device for an elastomeric track comprises a first bracket comprising a first portion comprising a tapered surface and a second portion configured to be removably coupled to the first portion to define a U-shaped channel configured to receive at least a portion of an elastomeric track, a first chain coupled to the first bracket at a first end of the first chain, a second bracket coupled to a second end of first chain opposite the first bracket, and a plate coupled to the first chain between the first bracket and the second bracket, the plate configured to substantially prevent the first chain from entering the recesses of the elastomeric track. Related traction devices and methods of attaching a traction device to an elastomeric track are also disclosed.

Abstract: A method of installing a dryer vent in a building exterior foundation wall during construction of the building. The dryer vent installation method comprises mounting a rigid wall plate that includes a fastener tube, the fastener tube includes outwardly facing pins. The dryer vent installation method includes mounting a removable flapper housing with mounting slots, the housing including a flapper valve. The dryer vent installation method further includes removably fastening the flapper valve housing slots to the fastener tube pins.

Abstract: A collapsible grill. The collapsible grill includes a base. The base is defined by several walls. An interior cavity is formed by the walls. A rod is affixed to an external surface of the base and extends upward from the base. A platform is mounted onto the rod. The platform can be adjusted vertically on the rod, so that a user can set a desired distance between the platform and the base.

Abstract: A holder for electronic shelf labels includes a channel having upper and lower ledges with upper and lower gripping flanges defining an engagement space into which a back of the electronic shelf label is mounted. A fin extends from a backplane of the channel, the fin having one side perpendicular to the backplane. The front of the upper and lower gripping flanges have inwardly-directed bevels. A breakaway guide is connected by a thinned portion to the backplane to engaging an edge of a mounting structure. The breakaway guide is removable following mounting of the channel.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for monitoring and capturing information associated with target subjects, such as babies. For example, the systems and methods provide a capture device, such as a camera, that captures capture time of flight (TOF) data from a target subject. Using the TOF data, the systems and methods, via a display device associated with (e.g., paired to) the capture device, present information about the target subject, such as information indicating movement of the target subject, information indicating a breathing rate of the target subject, information indicating a heart rate of the target subject, and so on.
