Abstract: Various systems, mediums, and methods may involve a bridge configured to communicate with a number of sites, such as fuel sites and/or restaurant sites. For example, a system may determine a mobile device is associated with a given fuel site, possibly located at the given fuel site, among a number of other fuel sites. Further, the system may determine one or more connections of the bridge that may be configured to communicate with a site component of the fuel site. As such, the system may transmit fuel data to the mobile device based on the one or more connections with the site component. Thus, the mobile device may display an indication of fuel available at the fuel site.

Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system and method for identifying a primary interactive device. The current disclosure presents a system and method that after determining devices available to a user, identifies based on an interaction state of each device available, the device that most optimally may be used for providing notifications, and presenting information to a user.

Abstract: A system is configured to perform operations that include receiving an input corresponding to a transaction by a user at a merchant location and determining, based on the input, an identifier corresponding to the user. The operations also include authenticating, via an electronic network, the user with a payment provider server of a payment provider and accessing from the payment provider server based on the identifier, digital wallet information corresponding an account of the user that is maintained by the payment provider. The operations further include receiving a selection of a first digital payment instrument of one or more digital payment instruments and transmitting, via a payment network to a payment processor, payment instructions that cause the payment processor to process a payment corresponding to the transaction using first payment information associated with the first digital payment instrument.

Abstract: A secure payment system and method for enabling transactions with a merchant without communicating account or payment information to the merchant by using broadcasting beacon and a payment system which may create a user experience similar to NFC tap payment systems without using NFC communications.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are provided for managing relationships between individual components and configurations assembled to fulfill requirements in a computer system. In one embodiment, a method is provided whereby a configuration which includes a set of components is dynamically modified to add an additional component, so that the additional component can communicate with at least some of the set of components to fulfill a requirement. In one illustrative implementation in a retail store environment, a cash register configuration is dynamically modified to incorporate a handheld scanning device during periods of high customer traffic, so that a store employee can use the scanning device to provide input to the cash register while it would otherwise have sat idle (e.g., while the cashier is bagging another customer's items).

Abstract: In a method for measuring the flow resistance of a catheter in an implanted medication infusion system, the system having a medication reservoir and a pump that conveys the medication from the reservoir into the patient through a catheter connected to the discharge of the pump via a one-way valve, and having a rinsing input for direct access to the catheter disposed upstream of the catheter and downstream of the pump, the time required in order to pump a pre-determined liquid volume through the catheter via the rinsing input at a predetermined pressure is measured. In a device for such a flow check, a testing device is provided for connection to the rinsing input, which pumps a predetermined liquid volume through the catheter via the rinsing input at a predetermined pressure. Measuring sensors are provided for supplying signals from which the time required for pumping this liquid volume can be determined.

Abstract: The invention is directed to an external pump stroke indicator for use with in an implanted medication infusion system of the type having a pump for conveying medication into the patient, an opening covered by a septum is arranged at the output of the pump. The indicator includes a cylinder composed of a transparent material and connectable via its lower end to the opening in an essentially upright attitude, the cylinder being filled with a liquid. A movable sinker member is provided in the cylinder, the movable sinker member normally resting as a result of its weight against a seat provided in the cylinder that limits the motion of the sinker member in the direction of the lower end of the cylinder. The sinker member is composed of a material that has a higher density than that of the liquid, so that the sinker member normally rests against the seat and only moves when pressure elevations that are generated by the pump strokes of the infusion system arise in the liquid.

Abstract: A unique clip having a depending body portion with an inner set slit or slot thereby forming a tongue which may be displaced from the plane of the body portion and wherein the terminus may be one of a plurality of configurations and wherein the clip has a myriad of uses, including being used as a bookmark, memo holder, or a paper clip.
