  • Publication number: 20220338802
    Abstract: A system for preparing a prescription for the use of one or more orthodontal correction devices, such as aligners, which allows for remote interaction and guidance by dental professionals with their patients. The aligner may include a sensor to detect when it is being worn for tracking compliance and determining when the next correction device within the prescription should replace the current correction device. A software application associated with the patient allows them to view and track their progress and to send data to their dental professional, and similarly the dental professional is alerted by the present invention when compliance issues or other issues may arise requiring intervention.

  • Patent number: 11387006
    Abstract: A communication, analysis, and treatment system including a computer system having a computing device associated with a specialist professional (e.g. a physical therapist) and a mobile computing device associated with a client (e.g. a patient). A remote server and database stores the software associated with the present invention. The specialist is able to quickly view a dashboard containing a brief description and status of all of the specialist's clients. In the example of a physical therapist, this would include all of the therapist's patients. Client data is organized into episodes, such as injury events. Prescriptions are assigned by the specialist to respond to these episodes. Access to this data is strictly restricted for confidentiality.

  • Patent number: 8228261
    Abstract: An expanded bit map display (“EBMD”) (10) for displaying an image (14) and a method of creating such for mounting the EBMD (10) to a building surface (12) is provided. The EBMD (10) is a large-scale colored light display comprising a plurality of intelligent light fixtures (16) having a microprocessor and a memory and mounted to the building surface (12). Each light fixture (16) is separately addressable and operable to store lighting characteristics or information. Groups of light fixtures (16) are in communication with a central processor operable to communicate control protocol.

  • Patent number: 8191880
    Abstract: A ground conductor clamp has a sheet metal clamp body with overlapped portions. The clamp body may be stamped from sheet metal. The overlapped portions have aligned circular holes in them for receiving a threaded insert nut inserted into them. The insert nut is spin riveted to attach it to the overlapped portions of the clamp body. A flange of the insert nut has a flat face that engages the clamp body to prevent rotation of the insert nut. The overlapped portion includes an inner bent tab that strengthens the sheet metal clamp body. The clamp also includes a threaded fastener, such as a bolt, that is threaded into the insert nut to engage a conductive lead and a ground conductor, such as a ground rod or ground electrode.
