Publication number: 20240123708Abstract: Methods of manufacturing electrochromic windows are described. An electrochromic device is fabricated to substantially cover a glass sheet, for example float glass, and a cutting pattern is defined based on one or more low-defectivity areas in the device from which one or more electrochromic panes are cut. Laser scribes and/or bus bars may be added prior to cutting the panes or after. Edge deletion can also be performed prior to or after cutting the electrochromic panes from the glass sheet. Insulated glass units (IGUs) are fabricated from the electrochromic panes and optionally one or more of the panes of the IGU are strengthened.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 31, 2023Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: View, Inc.Inventors: Mark A.

Publication number: 20240117073Abstract: The present invention relates to specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, which bind to amplified epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) and to the de2-7 EGFR truncation of the EGFR. In particular, the epitope recognized by the specific binding members, particularly antibodies and fragments thereof, is enhanced or evident upon aberrant post-translational modification. These specific binding members are useful in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer. The binding members of the present invention may also be used in therapy in combination with chemotherapeutics or anti-cancer agents and/or with other antibodies or fragments thereof.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2023Publication date: April 11, 2024Inventors: Lloyd J.

Publication number: 20240104514Abstract: An approach is provided that detects a presence of a user in a physical room and then identifies the detected user. An on-the-fly reservation request is received and the system determines that the physical room is available. One or more reservation attributes and one or more invitees are received and messages are then sent to the invitees. The messages include physical room identifier information. The user then joins a meeting in the physical room with a set of meeting attributes that include the physical room identifiers. The meeting attributes are accessible from an information handling system that is utilized by the identified user.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Mark Christopher Heidenfeldt, Sandy Collins, Mark K.

Patent number: 11919830Abstract: Processes capable of producing bulk materials suitable for use by the horticulture industry, resulting bulk materials produced thereby, and applications for these processes and materials. Preferred bulk materials have physical properties similar to peat moss and comprise individual materials, each at least partially having a twisted, curled, clumped and rolled structure. The individual materials may further comprise small granular particles dispersed throughout the twisted, curled, clumped and rolled structure. The individual materials may be rolled fibers such that the bulk material has physical properties similar to sphagnum peat moss so as to be particularly suitable as, for example, a soil conditioner, an absorbent material, a chemical carrier, or a filtering material. Alternatively, the individual materials may be rolled particles such that the bulk material has physical properties similar to milled peat moss so as to be particularly suitable as propagation media.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: PITTMOSS LLCInventors: Mont Andrew Handley, Matt Collins Knapp, Mark David Goldman

Patent number: 11921472Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed to determine when a portable electronic device is moved within an enclosed space. A processor and memory may control a sensor may store code executable by the processor to measure a parameter at an inlet of the computing device. The parameter may include an airflow rate, an air temperature at the inlet, and/or a current supply to a fan of the computing device. The processor may execute code to determine when the parameter at the inlet reaches a threshold. When the processor determines that the measured parameter has reached the threshold, a signal from the sensor to the processor and/or from the processor to an operator may be sent, indicating that the threshold has been reached.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2021Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Lenovo (Singapore) Pte.
