  • Publication number: 20170013127
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for redacting sensitive information. Certain methods involve caching an incoming communication in a cache of the machine, optionally, when the communication is a vocal stream, using a speech processor, converting the vocal stream to text before analyzing, and automatically analyzing the communication and identifying sensitive information in accordance with one or more rules and identifying the location of the sensitive information in the communication. The sensitive information is automatically redacted from the communication and the redacted communication is at least one of stored and transmitted.

  • Publication number: 20160372769
    Abstract: An electrode element and fuel cell and a new method of manufacturing a fuel cell, particularly for use in a breath alcohol detector. This new element includes a reservoir for extra electrolyte that can allow near perfect capillary action to keep the electrode substrate full of electrolyte for long periods of time, increasing its useful life, especially under harsh conditions. Further, the capillary action need not work through a layer of electrode and can be integrally formed with the electrode element to eliminate or reduce loss due to connective surfaces. Wire connections and arrangements are generally of no concern in this design as the reservoirs for electrolyte connect directly to the substrate and electrolyte does not need to pass through an electrode.

  • Publication number: 20160262563
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for filling a steam chamber. In one exemplary embodiment, a steam chamber is placed in selective communication with a vacuum pump and a heat transfer medium, such as a source of deaerated water. The steam chamber is then placed in communication with the vacuum pump, which draws a vacuum on the steam chamber and begins removing air from the interior thereof. Once a sufficient vacuum has been drawn on the steam chamber and substantially all of the air removed therefrom, the steam chamber may be placed in communication with the heat transfer medium. In one exemplary embodiment, the heat transfer medium is deaerated water. A predetermined amount of heat transfer medium is then allowed to fill the steam chamber. Once the predetermined amount of deaerated water has been received within the steam chamber, a steam chamber may be sealed.

  • Publication number: 20160267438
    Abstract: A user device may transmit login information for an account of the user to a computing system or platforms. After the user is logged in, the user may select a transaction type for a transaction that the user would like to setup using the user's device and send the transaction type selection to the computing system. The computing system can process the transaction information and determine available locations and times at the available locations to complete the transaction based on at least one of the transaction type, services available at a location, a profile of the user, and a preferred location of the user. The available locations and the times at the available locations may be transmitted to the user device. Based on the available locations and times, the user can select a location and time at the location for the appointment to complete the transaction. The computing system can receive the appointment request and schedule the transaction for completion at the selected time and location.

  • Publication number: 20160255948
    Abstract: A fingerbrush for cleaning multiple surfaces of a child's teeth and/or gum line including a body member having a front side, a rear side and a cavity extending therewithin. The front side of the body member includes a brush head having a pair of spaced side panels and a plurality of bristle members positioned and located on and between the side panels. The rear side of the body member includes vertical ribbing positioned and located between the top and base portions thereof and may further include a plurality of projections. The brush head is used to clean multiple teeth and/or gum line surfaces of a child, while the vertical ribbing and projections, used either independently or together, help to protect a user's finger from being bitten during the cleaning process and also aid in massaging a child's gums during teething.
