  • Patent number: 11972849
    Abstract: The present disclosure may include methods, systems, and computer-readable media for optimizing database functionality. For example, one method may include receiving test data from multiple different test data sources for a specified user under test. The method may further include training a machine learning model to: access the test data received from the test data sources for the same user under test, identify which disparate substances or conditions are being tested on the user by each of the different test data sources, and determine a relevance score for each of the identified substances or conditions being tested by the different test data sources. The method may also include generating an illustration of combined test results for the user under test that includes those substances or conditions that meet at least a minimum relevance score. Other systems, methods, and computer-readable media are also described.

  • Patent number: 11001466
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to systems and apparatuses for tracking usage of a packetized item. In one scenario, an apparatus may be provided for tracking use of a packetized item. The apparatus may include a roll of packets where each packet is designed to contain packetized items such as pills. The packets may have an electrically conductive material applied to various parts thereof. The apparatus may also include an enclosure configured to track usage of the packets. The enclosure may include a power source, a display, a transceiver, and a microcontroller that is configured to control operation of the display and may also analyze signals from the electrically conductive material to determine the distribution status of the packets. In one example, as packets are removed from the roll of packets, the microcontroller can determine when, where and how many packets were removed from the roll.

  • Patent number: 10896302
    Abstract: Embodiments are directed to an apparatus for tracking usage of a product. The apparatus includes the following: a structural layer that includes at least some portion of electrically conductive material, an adhesive layer, a microcontroller, and a transceiver. The microcontroller is electrically connected to the conductive material in the structural layer, and is configured to monitor the conductive material for changes in at least one electrical property. Upon determining that an electrical property has changed, the microcontroller determines where the apparatus is located and when the change occurred, and further reports the determination to various specified entities.
