  • Publication number: 20240171956
    Abstract: A system for providing emergency assistance includes receiving audio, visual, or text data about an ongoing emergency at a public safety answering point, comparing that data to a database of other emergencies with an artificial intelligence engine, recognizing patterns in aggregated and correlated data by the artificial intelligence engine, and generating appropriate audio, visual, and text output for a human operator to respond to the emergency. An AI engine receives audio data, visual data, and text data related to ongoing emergencies being received at public safety answering points and compares it with data from other emergencies. The AI engine identifies key words and patterns and generates appropriate messages for operators. The system continuously generates feedback to the AI engine to aid in machine learning. The feedback includes: “message was correct; continue drawing this conclusion”; and “message was wrong; do not continue drawing this conclusion.

  • Publication number: 20240168558
    Abstract: A finger-mounted device may include finger-mounted units. The finger-mounted units may each have a body that serves as a support structure for components such as force sensors, accelerometers, and other sensors and for haptic output devices. The body may have sidewall portions coupled by a portion that rests adjacent to a user's fingernail. The body may be formed from deformable material such as metal or may be formed from adjustable structures such as sliding body portions that are coupled to each other using magnetic attraction, springs, or other structures. The body of each finger-mounted unit may have a U-shaped cross-sectional profile that leaves the finger pad of each finger exposed when the body is coupled to a fingertip of a user's finger. Control circuitry may gather finger press input, lateral finger movement input, and finger tap input using the sensors and may provide haptic output using the haptic output device.

  • Publication number: 20240166626
    Abstract: The ?2-adrenergic receptor (?2AR) is a primary target in the treatment of airway diseases such as asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Since ?-agonist treatment of airway disease can have severe side effects, compounds that attenuate the side effects of ?-agonists have been identified via their ability to inhibit ?2AR interaction with ?-arrestins. These compounds are specific for the ?2AR and effectively protect against the desensitization observed with ?-agonist treatment in model cells and airway tissue. The present disclosure provides compounds and methods for treating airway disease, such as but not limited to COPD and/or asthma.
