  • Publication number: 20230392935
    Abstract: A method for modifying a procedure includes: accessing an instructional block library containing a set of verified instructional blocks associated with approved digital procedures performed within a facility; accessing an unverified instructional block, authored by an operator, for a new digital procedure at the facility; detecting a set of language signals in the unverified instructional block; correlating an equipment unit language signal, in the set of language signals, with an equipment unit located within the facility; correlating an action language signal, in the set of language signals, with an action prompt related to the equipment unit; identifying a verified instructional block, in the set of verified instructional blocks in the instructional block library, as analogous to the unverified instructional block in response to the verified instructional block including language signals associated with the equipment unit and the action prompt; and inserting the verified instructional block in the new digi

  • Patent number: 11825935
    Abstract: A table carried at the distal end of a table leg that is configured for anchoring entirely on a toilet. The table leg is anchored at its proximal end to an upside-down J-bracket configured to couple with the rim of a toilet bowl. A J-bracket typically includes a clamping mechanism to horizontally squeeze the rim. Table elevation above floor level may be adjusted by way of a telescopic table leg, and/or a coupling mechanism between the proximal table leg end and the J-bracket. Horizontal orientation of the table top surface may be maintained by an anti-twist mechanism and an anti-roll mechanism.

  • Publication number: 20230372308
    Abstract: The disclosure provides methods of treating a patient having primary hyperoxaluria or idiopathic hyperoxaluria comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of compound of the formula and pharmaceutically acceptable salts, solvates, and hydrates thereof to the patient. The variables, e.g. ring A, n, R, R3, R10, X, Y, and Z are defined herein. These compounds act as lactate dehydrogenase inhibitors and are useful inhibiting the conversion of glyoxylate to oxalate. When administered to a patient having a disease or disorder associated with elevated oxalate levels, such as PH type 1, type 2, or type 3 or idiopathic hyperoxaluria the compounds prevent or substantially reduce the amount and buildup of oxalate the patient's kidneys, bladder, urinary tract and other parts of the patient's body.

  • Patent number: 11815584
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of analysing nuclear magnetic resonance, NMR, data of a target object is provided. The method comprises receiving NMR data of the target object, and analysing the received NMR data using a model of the diffusive behaviour of particles within the target object. The model includes a time parameter and a space parameter, the time parameter describing temporal characteristics of the diffusive behaviour of particles in the model and the space parameter describing spatial characteristics of the diffusive behaviour of particles in the model. The model is constrained such that the value of the time parameter and the value of the space parameter are related according to a correlation function. An apparatus for analysing nuclear magnetic resonance, NMR, data of a target object is also provided.

  • Patent number: 11761784
    Abstract: The technology involves communicating the reachability status associated with an autonomous vehicle to a user such as a rider within the vehicle, a person awaiting pickup, or a customer that scheduled a package deliver. Reachability information about pickup and/or drop off locations is presentable via an app on a user device, which helps set expectations with customers about where the vehicle is most likely to be able to perform a pickup and/or drop off. This may include indicating how much variance there may be based on current congestion, parking or idling regulations, or weather conditions. The reachability information may be presented via one or more visualization tools to indicate the uncertainty and/or likely final location. Presenting such contextual information may be done based on real time information, and the presentation may be updated as needed. Historical information about the location may also be used to lower the level of uncertainty.

  • Patent number: 11705002
    Abstract: The technology includes communicating the current status of a self-driving vehicle to users, such as passengers within the vehicle and other users awaiting pickup. Certain information about the trip and vehicle status is communicated depending on where the passenger is sitting within the vehicle or where the person awaiting pickup is located outside the vehicle. This includes disseminating the “monologue” of a vehicle operating in an autonomous driving mode to a user via an app on the user's device (e.g., mobile phone, tablet or laptop PC, wearable, or other computing device) and/or an in-vehicle user interface. The monologue includes current status information regarding driving decisions and related operations or actions. This alerts the user as to why the vehicle is taking (or not taking) a certain action, which reduces confusion and allows the user to focus on other matters.

  • Publication number: 20230059417
    Abstract: The technology relates to providing an enhanced user experience for riders in autonomous vehicles. Two or more displays may be arranged at different locations within a vehicle to provide notifications, alerts and control options. Information may be dynamically and automatically switched between these displays, as well as a rider's own personal communication device(s). What information to present on each screen can depend on factors including how many riders are in the vehicle, their seating within the vehicle, how their attention is focused and/or display location and size. Certain information may be mirrored or otherwise duplicated among multiple screens while other information can be presented asymmetrically on different screens. Presented information may include a “monologue” from the vehicle explaining why a driving action is taken or not taken, alerts about important conditions, buttons to control certain functionality of the vehicle, or other information that may be of interest to the rider.

  • Publication number: 20220237984
    Abstract: The invention relates to a control arrangement for an application “app” for gamblers, the control including a number of steps. The steps included may include a) identification of a potential member through data input into the app b) verification of the identified user identity, c) registration as a member of the identified and verified user; and d) application for a membership level. The control arrangement membership level limits the periodic spend on gambling and the verified member is incentivised by membership rewards and or betting rewards. The invention also relates to variant methods thereon.
