Patent number: 11919194Abstract: A method of plugging channels of a honeycomb body and a honeycomb body including plugged channels. The method includes applying a shear force to a plugging mixture including a plurality of inorganic particles, clay, and a liquid vehicle to alter the viscosity of the plugging mixture from a first viscosity prior to the vibrating to a second viscosity which is less than the first viscosity. A honeycomb body is placed into contact with the plugging mixture such that a portion of the plugging mixture having the second viscosity flows into the plurality of channels. Application of the shear force is stopped or reduced to increase the viscosity of the portion of the plugging mixture in the plurality of channels to greater than the first viscosity.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Corning IncorporatedInventors: Keith Norman Bubb, Theresa Chang, Joseph Henry Citriniti, Kevin Eugene Elliott, Xinyuan Liu, Robert John Locker, Prashanth Abraham Vanniamparambil, Kevin Lee Wasson, Shu Yuan

Patent number: 11916771Abstract: Embodiments are directed monitoring network traffic using network monitoring computers. Metrics may be determined based on monitoring network traffic associated with entities in the network such that the metrics may be included in profiles associated each entity. The profiles may be compared with other profiles in a context database based on the metrics included in each profile and each other profile. In response to the profiles being unmatched by other profiles one or more active probes may be performed to collect other metrics that may be used to update profiles. In response to the one or more profiles being matched by the other profiles in the context database, a timestamp associated with the other profiles may be updated to a current time value. Reports that include information associated with the entities and the profiles or the updated profiles may be generated.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2022Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: ExtraHop Networks, Inc.Inventors: Jesse Abraham Rothstein, Benjamin Thomas Higgins, Michael Kerber Krause Montague, Kevin Michael Seguin

Patent number: 10785493Abstract: A method of compressing image data is described in which a difference value is formed for a respective pixel, said difference value corresponding to a predetermined relation between the pixel value and the estimated pixel value of the respective pixel and being represented by a first binary word that has a first length. The first binary word is encoded by at least one second binary word that has a second predetermined length. the first length is compared with the second length to determine whether the first length is smaller than the second length, with the first binary word otherwise being completely encoded by a single second binary word when the first length is smaller than the second length, and with the first binary word otherwise being completely encoded by a plurality of second binary words. A method of decompressing image data is furthermore described that corresponds to a reversal of the compression method.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2019Date of Patent: September 22, 2020Assignee: ARNOLD & RICHTER CINE TECHNIK GMBH & CO.

Patent number: 10722784Abstract: A system provides bi-manual game-based integrative therapy combining cognitive training with mild upper body physical exercising during game play. The system includes a pair of interfaces tracking a user's arms in 3D and detect trigger pressing. Custom therapeutic game controllers that detect grasping force, finger extension, 3D hand position, skin temperature and pulse may be used. Using one of these interfaces the patient plays a series of custom games displayed on a laptop, medical grade workstation, or other computer platform. The whole therapeutic system may be integrated on a medical cart, so to make the system mobile and easier to place in a clinical setting. Games were designed to improve motor control, shoulder strength, finger and arm range of motion, task sequencing, focusing, decision making (executive function), short term and long term visual/auditory memory, and were progressed in difficulty over 6 to 8 weeks of therapy. This therapy reduces depression.Type: GrantFiled: August 6, 2017Date of Patent: July 28, 2020Assignee: Bright Cloud International CorporationInventors: Grigore Cristian Burdea, Doru Tadeusz Roll, Nam-Hun Kim, Kevin Abraham Polistico, Ashwin Kadaru

Patent number: 9351481Abstract: A trap device for a carpenter bee. A first lure comprises an entry hole defined through an enclosure. A second lure comprises a tunnel extending from the entry hole into the interior. A third lure comprises a means for allowing natural sunlight to penetrate into the interior such that a bee passing into the tunnel is lured towards the exit. A tray is situated within the interior past the exit, the tray containing a sticky substance such that the bee is immobilized upon traveling into the interior. An optional bait lure is utilized consisting of either female bee pheromone or a fragrance. Therefore, a bee, attracted to the natural wood of the enclosure and entry hole, enters the tunnel, turns by natural instinct to follow the path of two chambers and makes contact with the sticky pad to become immobilized.Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2014Date of Patent: May 31, 2016Inventors: Ronald J.

Publication number: 20150099246Abstract: A method is provided for assigning a relative score number to foods. Assignment of a relative score number to foods allows consumers to select foods that will provide a desirable diet. Equations are provided which are effective to yield a predicted raw score based on measured characteristics. The predicted raw score statistically correlates to a raw score that would be determined by an actual panel.
