Abstract: In certain arrangements, systems and methods assist in gathering relevant data in a doctor-patient encounter for obtaining a properly specified diagnosis code. In one embodiment, selectable data items which are provided as part of a medical charting program may be correlated with one or more standardized diagnosis codes (e.g. ICD-10 codes). Upon selection of the appropriate data items when charting a patient encounter, one or more diagnosis codes which are correlated with the selected data items may be flagged and/or generated for later use, such as for filing a claim submission as part of a billing process or to further enhance the clinical workflow of patient encounter documentation.

Abstract: An anomaly detection system may be configured for an embedded device, such as a microcontroller. The anomaly detection system may be configured to receive a dataset from a sensor, such as a camera, a microphone, or an inertial management unit. The anomaly detection system may extract a plurality of features from the dataset. The plurality of features may be configured to train a neural network model, such as a convolutional classifier, to generate one or more classifications. The anomaly detection system may generate an anomaly score based on the plurality of features. The anomaly detection system may trigger an output based on the anomaly score exceeding a range.

Abstract: A sensor assembly for determining the level of oil in a filter pan may include a load cell for sensing the amount of oil in the filter pan. The filter pan may be pivotable about a first end of the filter pan within a frame. The assembly may also include a lever pivotable about a fulcrum. A first end of the lever may support a second end of the filter pan. A second end of the lever may press against the load cell based upon downward pressure from the filter pan against the first end of the lever.

Abstract: A surface cleaning apparatus is described including a housing supporting a suction source, a dirt collection container, and a cyclonic separation device for separating dirt from the airflow passing through the apparatus. The apparatus further includes a ducting member having an inlet in communication with an outlet from the cyclonic separation device and an outlet in communication with a passage leading to the suction source. The ducting member is removably connected to the housing or the dirt collection container and is rotatably moveable between locked and unlocked positions, and rotational movement of the ducting member from its unlocked position to its locked position aligns the outlet of the ducting member with the passage leading to the suction source.

Abstract: A user can create and customize a digital character, for instance an avatar, a playable video game character, or a rendering of a character. The user can likewise define characteristics of the character, including a physical appearance of the character, statistics associated with the character, accessories of the character, and the like. The digital character can be manufactured, producing a physical figurine, which can include an RFID device. An NFT can be generated based on the digital character, for based on one or more characteristics of the character, the user, or any other factor. The NFT can be associated with the figurine, with the user, with a user account of the user, with an identifier associated with the RFID device, and with the digital character. The figurine can be used to unlock one or more features of a gaming system, a game, an entertainment platform, or any other system.

Abstract: A lubricating tube and a lubrication system are configured to lubricate an apparatus having a rolling component. The lubrication system includes a fluid reservoir containing a fluid, a fluid line coupled to the fluid reservoir; and the lubricating tube, which is disposed between the fluid line and the rolling component. The lubricating tube includes a rigid cylindrical body surrounding a cavity and having an outer circumferential surface. An inlet of the lubricating tube is coupled to the fluid line and provides fluid communication between the fluid line and the cavity. A plurality of ports is disposed on the outer circumferential surface and is configured to dispense the fluid to the rolling component. A location of each port of the plurality of ports from the inlet is customizable.
