  • Patent number: 11614961
    Abstract: A system includes a machine readable storage medium storing instructions and a processor to execute the instructions. The instructions include receiving a local workflow including a native action from a first user device and determining whether information to execute the native action as a cloud action is complete. In response to determining that information for the native action is complete, determining whether a comparable cloud action is available for the native action. In response to determining that a comparable cloud action is available for the native action, saving the native action as a cloud action in a cloud work-flow. In response to determining that a comparable cloud action is not available for the native action or in response to determining that information to execute the native action is not complete, saving the native action as a local action in the cloud workflow.

  • Publication number: 20230025119
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing an ostomy appliance including: a first wall and a second wall which are connected to each other at or near their peripheries to form a main body having an internal cavity for collecting waste, and an opening, and an outlet portion, formed from outlet layers and having an entrance, which is fluidly connected to the internal cavity, and an exit, which permits waste collected in the internal cavity to be emptied. The method can include attaching the outlet portion to the main body by: positioning the outlet portion, relative to the opening in the main body so that the entrance aligns with the opening, and positioning a soluble member such that the first wall and first outlet layer are positioned to one side of the soluble member and the second wall and second outlet layer positioned to an opposing side of the soluble member.

  • Publication number: 20220317764
    Abstract: A method for the adaptation of a user interface based on the proximity of a plurality of computing devices connected to a network. The method includes determining, at a first client or a server, a proximity of a second client being within a predetermined range of the first client. The first client or the server determines the proximity of a second client being within a predetermined range by receiving a notification from the server, receiving a unique identifier from the second client, sensors of the first or the second client, or by determining that the location of the first client is within a predefined distance from the location of the second client. The method includes receiving, by the first client or the server, recommendations data associated with client data of the second client. The method includes adapting a user interface of the first client based on the recommendation data.

  • Publication number: 20220160535
    Abstract: (With reference to FIG. 3) A valve for a urostomy appliance including: a body for connection to the urostomy appliance, an inlet and an outlet, connected by a flow path, and a blocking member supported by the body and moveable between a closed position, in which the blocking member blocks the inlet, such that liquid cannot flow through the flow path to the outlet, and an open position in which the inlet is open, such that liquid is permitted to flow through the flow path to the outlet, and wherein the inlet is shaped such that as the blocking member is moved from a position in which a flow path is initially opened towards a fully open position, the rate of change of a permitted flow rate through the valve increases with non-linear proportionality as the blocking member moves.

  • Patent number: 11328724
    Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which are stored machine readable instructions that when executed by the processor cause the processor to access a voice command file pertaining to a data file and to send the voice command file to at least one of a server and a voice services provider, in which the voice services provider is to translate the voice command file to a workflow task message and to send the workflow task message to the server. The instructions may also cause the processor to receive the workflow task message from the server and execute a workflow task on the data file corresponding to the received workflow task message.

  • Publication number: 20220014577
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for multi-device media broadcasting or recording with active control. A controller may preview media streams from a plurality of source devices, and may select between the streams, add processing or additional content to the streams, and provide an edited or mixed stream to one or more client or recipient devices. In many implementations, mixing or selective presentation of streams may be accomplished with little to no delay via a lightweight signaling and chunk identification change protocol. In other implementations, processing and mixing instructions may be provided to client devices, which may retrieve the streams and process them locally, reducing or eliminating delay from an intermediary processor or mixer.
