Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for improving an observation campaign in response analytical data collected form observations. An observation campaign may be a set of campaign parameters designed to incentivize observers of real-world data to collect and send electronic communication of the collected real-world data to the observation platform. By analyzing the collected real-world data against one or more defined metrics, one or more parameters of the observation campaign may be changed in an effort to improve the collection of the real-world data. Further, the improved set of observation campaign parameters may be used to establish or improve observation campaign templates as well as improving similar bit unrelated observation campaign.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, and methods for observing and collecting real-world data about conditions, standards, guidelines, rules and restrictions established by a coordinator of an observation campaign. One embodiment may include a user-based mobile computing device (e.g., a smart phone) configured to execute an observation application to coordinate observing and collecting of real-world data. Further, the system may include an observation server computer configured to send notifications that include one or more opportunities for observations of real-word data to the user-based mobile computing device and configured to receive real world data observed and collected by the user-based mobile computing device. Further yet, the system may include a coordinator-based computing device communicatively coupled to the observation server computer and configured to generate and control a campaign of opportunities sent by the observation server computer.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described for coupling a high intensity focused ultrasound transducer to a skin surface using water as a coupling agent.
