Publication number: 20240027816Abstract: An interactive touch-screen display device includes a liquid crystal layer; a conductive layer, the conductive layer being translucent and electronically grounded; a polarizer; and a glass layer, wherein the conductive layer contacts the glass layer and contacts the polarizer. Additionally, a method of assembling an interactive touch-screen display device includes creating an assembly by layering a liquid crystal layer and a polarizer. The method also includes bringing a conductive material proximate to the polarizer; creating a static charge on the conductive material to attract dust particles to the conductive material; and removing the conductive material, thereby carrying away dust particles.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 21, 2023Publication date: January 25, 2024Applicant: Promethean LimitedInventors: Paul Wareing, John Brannan, Christopher Dawson, Melanie Friar

Publication number: 20230046864Abstract: A system and method for displaying information from at least a first computing device and a second computing device on an interactive display. In some embodiments: (1) the first computing device is connected to a public data network; (2) the second computing device is connected to a private data network; and (3) the interactive display is connected to both the public data network and the private data network. The system mirrors a first display for the first computing device (using information received via the public data network) and mirrors a second display for the second computing device (using information received via the private data network) on the interactive display. This may two users to simultaneously mirror content from two remote computing devices on different networks onto the same interactive display, without exposing the private data network (e.g., and any computing components connected thereto) to the first computing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 31, 2022Publication date: February 16, 2023Applicant: Promethean LimitedInventors: Sriraman Venkataraman, Steve Benfield, Verlin Henderson, Andrew Edwardson, Paul Wareing

Publication number: 20220051804Abstract: Heterogeneity for biomarkers in a tissue sample can be calculated. A heterogeneity score can be combined with an immunohistochemistry combination score to provide breast cancer recurrence prognosis. Heterogeneity can be based on percent positivity determinations for a plurality of biomarkers according to how many cells in the sample stain positive. An immunohistochemistry combination score can be calculated. An imaging tool can support a digital pathologist workflow that includes designating fields of view in an image of the tissue sample. Based on the fields of view, a heterogeneity metric can be calculated and combined with an immunohistochemistry combination score to generate a breast cancer recurrence prognosis score.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 28, 2021Publication date: February 17, 2022Inventors: Srinivas Chukka, Olcay Sertel, Anindya Sarkar, Nikolaus Wick, Shalini Singh, Crystal Schemp, Paul Waring, Raymond Tubbs

Patent number: 11182067Abstract: In various embodiments, an interactive display overlay system is configured to serve as a gatekeeper for detected inputs on an interactive display screen (e.g., such as an interactive whiteboard or touch screen display) that is displaying a transparent overlay layer over an underlying software application. In various embodiments, the system is configured to detect an input at a particular location on the interactive display screen and determine whether there is a widget at that particular location on the transparent overlay layer before passing the input on to the underlying software application. In particular embodiments, the system is configured to modify inputs detected at the overlay layer that are proximate to a widget to an edge of the widget prior to passing on modified input data to the underlying software application.Type: GrantFiled: January 17, 2020Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: Promethean LimitedInventors: Paul Wareing, Chris Hinsley

Publication number: 20210342115Abstract: An Interactive Display System may be configured to enable and facilitate a permanent communications pathway between a display device and each of a plurality of connected computing devices. In particular embodiments, the permanent communication channel is configured to transmit data between each connected computing device and the display device. In particular embodiments, the permanent communications path is facilitated via one or more USB relays. Each USB Relay may be configured to enable a direct connection between each connected computing device and the display device, where both the connected computing device and the display device are configured as USB Hosts. In particular embodiments, the USB Relay is configured as a USB device to each connected computing device and the display device and further configured to pass-through data received at the USB Relay (e.g., as a USB device) to the opposite USB Host.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2021Publication date: November 4, 2021Applicant: Promethean LimitedInventors: Paul Wareing, Ben Titterington, Andrew Edwardson
