Patent number: 11808616Abstract: An ultrasonic sensor detects a liquid level. A substrate (707) has an acoustic array (705). An acoustic diversion array (710) can be between a substrate edge (713) and the acoustic array. A sensing region (701) can lay next to the acoustic array opposite the acoustic diversion array. A collimation groove (706) can be in the substrate along a length of the acoustic array next to the liquid level sensing region. Multiple longitudinal folds (801, 802, 803) can run parallel to and between acoustic source and receive arrays. A feed strip (1201, 1202, 1309, 1311) can be used with a bend (1203, 1204) acoustically coupled to the acoustic array and an ultrasonic transducer at another end of the feed strip. The feed strip runs along the entire acoustic array when top fed and runs along part of the acoustic array when fed through a side of a tank (1401).Type: GrantFiled: April 14, 2023Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: Texzec, Inc.Inventors: Terence John Knowles, Charles F Bremigan, III

Patent number: 11674525Abstract: A system and method for records management and classification of files in a content management system having a server system that stores the files. A system detects when at least one of the files is classified by a user of a client computing system as a classified file, and based on the detecting of the classification of the one or more files, each classified file is removed from the client computing system. The system further detects when at least one of the files is declared as a permanent record by the user of the client computing system, and based on the detecting of the declaration as a permanent record, prevents editing by the client computing system of each file declared as a permanent record.Type: GrantFiled: May 13, 2022Date of Patent: June 13, 2023Assignee: Hyland UK Operations LimitedInventors: John Knowles, John Iball, Ovidiu Benea, Stefania Ropotica

Publication number: 20220164590Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure disclose methods and systems for cataloguing provenances of watches and for authenticating watches based on the catalogue. In some embodiments, an image of a face of a watch and a video of a hand of the watch moving across the face of the watch may be obtained. Further, a set of scale-invariant features of the face may be extracted using a feature transformation algorithm. Further, a motion curve tracing the hand of the watch moving across the face of the watch may be extracted using a visual motion tracker. In addition, the physical attributes of the watch may also be obtained. In some embodiments, the feature transformation features, the motion curve and the physical attributes may be stored in a database configured to catalogue the provenance of watches, which can also be used to authenticate watches.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 22, 2021Publication date: May 26, 2022Inventors: Christopher John Knowles, Matthew A.
