Patent number: 12491897Abstract: Systems, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving the use of sensor data in a mobile context by indexing the sensor data with derived content. In one embodiment, a method includes, responsive to an offload event, acquiring sensor data from a vehicle. The method includes generating an index of the sensor data according to attributes of how the sensor data was acquired. The method includes analyzing the sensor data to derive additional content using at least a model. The method includes updating the index using the additional content to further indicate characteristics of the sensor data relative to the attributes. The method includes providing the index to a remote device as a report about contents of the sensor data.Type: GrantFiled: April 4, 2022Date of Patent: December 9, 2025Assignee: WOVEN BY TOYOTA, U.S., INC.Inventors: Christopher Heiser, Anand Ramesh, Khalid Azam, Trilok Agarwal, Harry Chan-Maestas, Stefan Gloutnikov, Kevin Phillips

Publication number: 20250305052Abstract: Methods and systems for identifying and/or treating urinary disorders are provided. The methods and systems generally operate by obtaining a urine sample from a subject, identifying (such as by using nucleic acid sequencing) an abundance of a first set of one or more microbes (such as one or more bacteria or viruses) in the urine sample, and determining whether the subject suffers from a urinary disorder based on the abundance of the first set of one or more microbes. In some cases, the methods and systems further operate by identifying a second set of microbes to supplement a microbiome in the urinary tract of the subject. In some instances, the methods and systems further operate by treating the urinary disorder using the second set of microbes. In some instances, a preservation solution is utilized.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 11, 2025Publication date: October 2, 2025Inventors: Trevor Levin, Kevin Phillips, Christian Rees

Patent number: 12333867Abstract: System, methods, and other embodiments described herein relate to improving data offloading in a mobile context by using indexes of the data to identify distributed devices that may include the data and selectively querying identified devices for the data. In one embodiment, a method includes, responsive to receiving a query for selected data stored among one or more distributed devices, identifying, by a query device, at least one target device of the distributed devices that matches the selected data using an index of vehicle data stored on the distributed devices. The method includes providing, by the query device, a request to the at least one target device to cause the at least one target device to retrieve the selected data stored locally at the target device. The method includes receiving the selected data from the target device. The method includes providing the selected data as an electronic output.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2022Date of Patent: June 17, 2025Assignee: Woven By Toyota, U.S., Inc.Inventors: Christopher Heiser, Jason Stinson, Anand Ramesh, Owen Davis, Khalid Azam, Trilok Agarwal, Harry Chan-Maestas, Stefan Gloutnikov, Kevin Phillips
