  • Publication number: 20190117142
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a system and method for delivering a digital therapeutic, specific to a user emotional or mental state (EMS). This entails recognizing at least one EMS selected by the user from a plurality of EMS, said selected EMS indicating at least one of a feeling, sensation, type of discomfort, mood, mental state, emotional condition, or physical status of the user. Pushing at least a primary-level message personalized to the user based on at least one stored message coupled to the selected EMS; wherein the at least primary-level messages contain at least one of a text, image, sound, video, art asset, suggested action or recommended behavior. The actions suggested or behaviors recommended are supported by at least one independent source of peer-reviewed research, as verified by a credentialed EMS expert.

  • Patent number: 10261991
    Abstract: One variation of a system for imposing a dynamic sentiment vector to an electronic message includes: a processor; an electronic computing device communicatively coupled to the processor and associated with a particular user; and a sentiment vector generator comprising: a parsing module; a dynamic sentiment value spectrum associated with the particular user; and a program executable by the processor and configured to: receive a text input comprising message content from the electronic computing device; parse, at the parsing module, the message content comprised in the text input for emotionally charged language; based on the emotionally charged language, generate a sentiment value from the dynamic sentiment value spectrum for the text input and, based on the sentiment value, impose a sentiment vector, corresponding to the assigned sentiment value, to the text input, the imposed sentiment vector rendering a sensory effect on the message content designed to convey a corresponding sentiment.

  • Patent number: 10239688
    Abstract: A manway gate assembly couples to a tank and provides a liquid tight seal. The manway gate assembly includes a gate selectively slideable in a first linear direction between an open position, a closed position, and/or an intermediate position between the open position and the closed position. The manway gate assembly includes one or more locking members arranged adjacent to the gate and moveable between a locked position and an un-locked position. When in the locked position, the one or more locking members apply a biasing force to the gate in a second linear direction perpendicular to the first linear direction to seal the gate to the tank and provide a liquid tight seal.
