  • Publication number: 20240160035
    Abstract: A lensed display system includes a projector configured to project an image. The lensed display system includes a lens formed of a glass or crystalline material. The lens includes a first surface, wherein at least a portion of the first surface includes a coating that is configured to display the projected image. The lens includes a second surface, wherein the second surface comprises a transparent curved surface that is configured to face toward a user and to enable the user to view the image projected onto the coating through the transparent curved surface.

  • Patent number: 11955116
    Abstract: Content is organized for brands by selecting a plurality of brand templates. After each selection, a set of properties is generated by applying a portion of settings of the respective brand template, with the remaining settings being overridden with settings for a channel communicating one of a plurality of presentations to a node of a network involved in the communication. The plurality of presentations may include different renditions of the same content. The properties may include sections configured for different focus areas and/or types of content associated with at tags to enable brand-level-targeting. Filters may be identified in the properties. Based on each of the identifications, a property from among the generated sets of properties may be selected based on comparisons with the associated tags.

  • Publication number: 20240071593
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed that provide smart alerts to users, e.g., alerts to users about diabetic states that are only provided when it makes sense to do so, e.g., when the system can predict or estimate that the user is not already cognitively aware of their current condition, e.g., particularly where the current condition is a diabetic state warranting attention. In this way, the alert or alarm is personalized and made particularly effective for that user. Such systems and methods still alert the user when action is necessary, e.g., a bolus or temporary basal rate change, or provide a response to a missed bolus or a need for correction, but do not alert when action is unnecessary, e.g., if the user is already estimated or predicted to be cognitively aware of the diabetic state warranting attention, or if corrective action was already taken.

  • Patent number: 4048853
    Abstract: A method of measuring the speed of flow of a liquid along a conduit by omitting a continuous acoustic signal of known frequency through a wall of the conduit and receiving the signal reflected, from the liquid. This reflected signal is of increased frequency due to the Doppler effect, and the received signal is demodulated to give a signal at the Doppler difference frequency which is a function of the liquid speed. The Doppler difference frequency is divided by a divisor of known numerical value and the quotient frequency counted. This quotient frequency is a function of the speed of flow or the flow rate, and one or more indicator devices utilize this count either as analogue signal or integrated with respect to time to indicate the instantaneous speed or flow rate or the total volume or weight of liquid which has passed.
