  • Publication number: 20250095374
    Abstract: Video analytics are used to evaluate interactions between humans and animals and identify possible occurrences of animal abuse in an objective manner. The video analytics system processes successive video frames to identify objects of interest (e.g., humans, animals, tools/weapons, etc.), creates mathematical models of such objects (e.g., essentially stick-figure models), analyzes movements of such objects (e.g., the speed and/or directional motion of an object or portion of an object such as an arm or leg), determines mathematically and objectively whether or not the analyzed movements meet predetermined criteria for possible abuse (e.g., wherein the predetermined criteria can be mathematical models defining ethical and unethical movements), and outputs relevant information via a user interface (e.g., a list of possible abuse instances identifying the time and probability of possible abuse, from which the user can select an instance in order to view the corresponding video for human analysis).

  • Patent number: 12044498
    Abstract: A magwell extension is provided and configured to assist a user in inserting a cartridge magazine into the magwell of a firearm. The extension includes a hollow body enclosed on four sides and open at opposite ends. A coupling face defines a first of the ends and includes a pair of rails configured to engage the rim of the magwell. A stop rail extending from the coupling face lies perpendicular to the pair of rails. A locking element is configured to be coupled to the body with a portion extending from the first opening and beyond a plane defined by the coupling face. The locking element is configured to bias the rim of the magwell into secure engagement with the stop rail.
