  • Patent number: 12260461
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for providing an electronic environment for enabling straight through processing (“STP”) of an advisor/client-adopted-illustration are provided. The environment includes a workstation. An interface screen is located on the workstation. The interface screen displays multiple illustrations. The interface screen may distinguish the differences between the two illustrations from like portions of the two illustrations. The interface screen may juxtapose, on the display, like portions of the two illustrations. An environment condition may include a requirement that each of the two illustrations includes a signature from the client. The environment may also include a communications module for transmitting an illustration request to a remote server, which may determine whether an advisor-selected characterization of the illustration is correct.

  • Patent number: 12035721
    Abstract: A plurality of dough pieces are produced using a rotary dough cutter including a shaft, a plurality of walls extending radially outward from the shaft and a plurality of interior blades extending radially outward from the shaft. The plurality of walls define a plurality of dough cutter molds. The plurality of dough cutter molds include a first dough cutter mold and a second dough cutter mold. A first wall of the plurality of walls defines part of both the first dough cutter mold and the second dough cutter mold. Each of the plurality of interior blades is located in one of the plurality of dough cutter molds. The plurality of dough pieces are cut from a dough sheet with the plurality of walls. The plurality of dough pieces are scored with the plurality of interior blades. After scoring, the plurality of dough pieces are proofed and then frozen.

  • Publication number: 20240027992
    Abstract: A facility for automated modelling of the cutting process for a particular material to be cut by a beam cutting tool, such as a waterjet cutting system, from empirical data to predict aspects of the waterjet's effect on the workpiece across a range of material thicknesses, across a range of cutting geometries, and across a range of cutting quality levels, all of which may be broader than, and independent of the actual requirements for a target workpiece, is described.

  • Publication number: 20220155851
    Abstract: A method for adapting auditory biofeedback cues to adjust a user's gait includes receiving a series of respective first signals from each sensor of an integrated sensor system and converting the series of respective first signals into a series of respective second signals. Each respective second signal within the series of respective second signals can be quantized as an audio biofeedback cue and modified so the timing of each respective second signal is aligned to a pre-selected temporal or musical grid. The user's gait is then analyzed as a function of the audio biofeedback cues and the pre-selected temporal or musical grid can be adapted to adjust entrainment of the user's gait.

  • Patent number: 11132300
    Abstract: A system includes a device coupleable to a first memory. The device includes a second memory to cache data from the first memory. The second memory is to store a set of compressed pages of the first memory and a set of page descriptors. Each compressed page includes a set of compressed data blocks. Each page descriptor represents a corresponding page and includes a set of location identifiers that identify the locations of the compressed data blocks of the corresponding page in the second memory. The device further includes compression logic to compress data blocks of a page to be stored to the second memory and decompression logic to decompress compressed data blocks of a page accessed from the second memory.

  • Patent number: 10761598
    Abstract: A system and method for generating wireless signals from the physical movement of a person utilizing a movement detection mechanism attached to the person wherein the system allows a person to manipulate the generated wireless signals to selectively control digital responses which may be in the form of sensory-perceivable outputs such as sounds and/or visual effects, for example, through the person's physical movement. Movement sensors attached to the person (e.g., on one foot or both feet) communicate with other system components such as microprocessors, transmitters and/or tactile interface controls, for example, to wirelessly send signal pulses from a person to a computer or mobile device and allow the person wearing the sensors and/or another person to selectively control the dynamics of the digital responses so to create a unique sensory output.

  • Patent number: 10713059
    Abstract: A compute unit configured to execute multiple threads in parallel is presented. The compute unit includes one or more single instruction multiple data (SIMD) units and a fetch and decode logic. The SIMD units have differing numbers of arithmetic logic units (ALUs), such that each SIMD unit can execute a different number of threads. The fetch and decode logic is in communication with each of the SIMD units, and is configured to assign the threads to the SIMD units for execution based on such differing numbers of ALUs.
