Abstract: A system and method for pumping fluid through an organ donors organs while monitoring the fluid and organs. A pump is configured to pump fluid from a fluid reservoir through an oxygenator that oxygenates the fluid, a heat exchanger that regulates the temperature of the fluid, and into an organ donors circulatory system or a severed organ. At least one sensor array is coupled to the system to monitor the fluid and organ/s. The fluid pumped through the system is blood or flushing fluid, and the two can be used one at a time. The information gathered by the at least one sensor array is used to inform the system to make changes to increase the organ's likelihood of successful transplant.

Abstract: A locking mechanism for a slide out tray system may have a cam that is connected to a lock rod. A lock bar lever may be rotatable about an offset portion, such that when the cam is rotated, the end of the lock bar lever in contact with the cam is pushed upwards, thus pushing the opposite end of the lock bar lever downwards to push the locking plate down, allowing the slide out tray system to slide into a closed position. A bushing lock may interact with lock rod flanges. The lock rod flanges roll over and are supported by a bushing. When the bushing meets a space between the lock rod flanges, the lock rod may automatically rotate such that the flange contacts an edge of the bushing lock, thus preventing the lock rod and tray system from extending any further.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatus are disclosed for estimating quantities of stored materials in an unmonitored store. The data from a lower-fidelity store can be collected by a person (manual or “unmonitored” stores), which are manually collected unmonitored data, whereas monitored data from a higher-fidelity store can be collected by automated sensors from one or more similar stores (“monitored” stores). The present system may take as initial input historical data from a set of monitored stores and historical data for a set of manual stores. The system may continuously receive over time monitored data from monitored stores data and unmonitored data from manual stores. The system generates a model using the monitored data and the unmonitored data and applies the model to user-specified input data parameters to generate estimates of an inventory parameter, such as remaining material quantities in the set of manual unmonitored stores since their latest manual data collection.

Abstract: Systems and methods for preemptive wakeword detection are disclosed. For example, a first part of a wakeword is detected from audio data representing a user utterance. When this occurs, on-device speech processing is initiated prior to when the entire wakeword is detected. When the entire wakeword is detected, results from the on-device speech processing and/or the audio data is sent to a speech processing system to determine a responsive action to be performed by the device. When the entire wakeword is not detected, on-device processing is canceled and the device refrains from sending the audio data to the speech processing system.

Abstract: Implementations relate to an application that can bias automatic speech recognition for meetings using data that may be associated with the meeting and/or meeting participants. A transcription of inputs provided during a meeting can additionally and/or alternatively be processed to determine whether the inputs should be incorporated into a meeting document, which can provide a summary for the meeting. In some instances, entries into a meeting document can be designated as action items, and those action items can optionally have conditions for reminding meeting participants about the action items and/or for determining whether an action item has been fulfilled. In this way, various tasks that may typically be manually performed by meeting participants, such as creating a meeting summary, can be automated in a more accurate manner. This can preserve resources that may otherwise be wasted during video conferences, in-person meetings, and/or other gatherings.
