  • Patent number: 11964300
    Abstract: A device and process for applying a quick dry rapid set aqueous solution. An indicator of a selected color and composition is added to an accelerator to be applied along with a resin. The tinted color indicator is typically blue and allows the user to determine if the proper mixture is being applied. The indicator is visible only during application and disappears after application. The resin and accelerator are applied using an airless spray mechanism with delivery systems and spray gun. The spray gun has 2 nozzles and the capability to set the angle between the nozzles.

  • Publication number: 20230304327
    Abstract: An anti-theft barrier for an automatic teller machine is provided. The anti-theft barrier has a first post having a sleeve hinge, a second post having a secure locking housing and a rotating barrier arm. The rotating barrier arm has a first end pivoted from the first post and a second end which locks into the housing of the second post. The housing has an internally hidden and protected lock and bolt and an externally penetrating latch. The anti-theft barrier reduces the chances of attack by deterring unauthorized individuals from being able to unlock the rotating barrier arm to potentially damage or illegally remove the automatic teller machine.

  • Publication number: 20230267936
    Abstract: There is provided a method that includes (a) obtaining a first voice vector that was derived from a signal of a voice that was sampled at a first sampling frequency, (b) obtaining a second voice vector that was derived from a signal of a voice that was sampled at a second sampling frequency, (c) mapping the second voice vector into a mapped voice vector in accordance with a machine learning model, and (d) comparing the first voice vector to the mapped voice vector to yield a score that indicates a probability that the first voice vector and the second voice vector originated from a same person.

  • Patent number: 11492913
    Abstract: An inspection system includes a thermographic sensor configured to capture thermographic data of a component having holes as a fluid is pulsed toward the holes, and one or more processors configured to temporally process the thermographic data to calculate temporal scores and spatial scores for the corresponding holes. The scores can be used to obtain a reference dataset and a test dataset. A performance score can be assigned to the component based on the difference between the datasets.

  • Patent number: 11163751
    Abstract: A resource exploitation management system, method and a computer program product therefor. A description of new geological evidence for a geological resource is received, e.g., as one or more triples describing the evidence. Keywords in the description are matched against keywords in representations in a geological resource database. Geological relations are inferred from the descriptions and matched against predefined geological relations from the geological resource database. Consistent triple matches are merged with the geological resource database. The confidence level for merged matches is updated in the geological resource database.
