  • Patent number: 12118870
    Abstract: Apparatus and methods for automatically detecting falling fluid include receiving one or more live video feeds from one or more cameras. The live video feeds are received concurrently. The live video feeds are analyzed to detect a fluid leak using a motion algorithm. False positives are reduced and sensitivity for the fluid leak detection is improved using information from one or more integrated systems, in response to detecting the fluid leak. A notification is generated to inform a user of the detected fluid leak, in response to detecting the fluid leak after reducing the false positives.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11642492
    Abstract: A female urinary catheter deployment device includes a housing, an inner tip, an outer tip, a catheter, and an actuator. The outer tip is moved into the vicinity of the urethral opening of a female urethra. The outer tip is then moved from a closed condition to an open condition so as to expose a proximal end of the inner tip and position the proximal end of the inner tip within the urethra. The actuator is then moved with respect to the housing so as to proximally advance a proximal end of the catheter through and out of the proximal end of the inner tip and into the urethra. The proximal end of the catheter is further advanced through the urethra and into the bladder so as to drain urine from the bladder, through the catheter, and out of the housing.

  • Publication number: 20210173969
    Abstract: A method for updating a digital twin of a building, comprising receiving measurements from a plurality of sensors of a portable device at a location within the building, the measurements comprising values of a plurality of environmental conditions at the location of the portable device within the building at a first time; generating a point in the digital twin of the building, the point having virtual coordinates that correspond to the location of the portable device within the building; and training one or more models configured to generate the digital twin of the building based on the received measurements and the point in the digital twin of the building.
