  • Patent number: 12039492
    Abstract: A system and method assigning a medical device to a medical facility is disclosed. Responsive to determining that a wireless connection being formed between a medical device and a wireless communication device inside a medical treatment area, a determination is made that the medical device moved into the medical treatment area and a determination is made as to whether the medical device is currently in an existing inventory associated with the medical facility. When the medical device is not determined to be within the inventory, device identity information is automatically obtained from the medical device and a new medical device record is created for the medical device and stored in the inventory.

  • Patent number: 12041145
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer programs are presented for lowering network latency for cloud-based services. Service-delivery edge locations allow customers to improve communication-providers public and private network connectivity for improved performance. One method includes operations for performing, by an edge server, a handshake to establish a communication session between a client and a main server, and for exchanging data between the client and the main server via the edge server. The handshake includes exchanging, by the edge server, communication initiation messages with the client, and validating, by the edge server, authentication credentials for the communication session based on the communication initiation messages.

  • Publication number: 20240227219
    Abstract: A hair removal device is provided having a plurality of leaf springs joined to an applicator head, where the applicator head has a hair removal surface. The plurality of leaf springs is connected to form a wave spring. The leaf springs extend radially from a center of the hair removal surface, or the plurality of leaf springs may extend circumferentially around a perimeter of the hair removal surface. The leaf springs can be connected to each other, having the same or different dimensions. A hair removal device is provided having a wave spring joined to an applicator head which has a hair removal surface. The wave spring has a thickness of 1 mm to 100 mm, can be circular, wherein the diameter is between 1 and 10 times the thickness. The plurality of leaf springs or wave spring has a deflection stiffness ranging from 0.05 N/mm and 5N/mm.

  • Publication number: 20240227222
    Abstract: A hair removal device is provided including a base, a multi-angle deflector coupled to the base, an applicator head coupled to the multi-angle deflector, wherein the base, the multi-angle deflector, and the applicator head are aligned along an alignment axis, wherein, in a relaxed state, the multi-angle deflector includes at least one thickness measured parallel to the alignment axis, and wherein the at least one thickness is reduced or maintained by a load applied to the multi-angle deflector via the applicator head or the base. Alternatively, when the multi-angle deflector is under load or compressed, the thickness of the multi-angle deflector is modified by being decreased at any location, wherein the modified thickness of the multi-angle deflector does not reach a zero value.

  • Patent number: 12026694
    Abstract: Authentication methods and systems using RFID-enabled payment cards are disclosed herein where a server receives a request corresponding to authorization of a payment associated with a payment card from an electronic terminal. The server identifies an electronic device of a user associated with the payment card. The server then transmits an instruction to the electronic device to cause an RFID reader of the electronic device to determine whether an RFID tag corresponding to the payment card is located within a predetermined proximity to the electronic device. When the payment card is located within the predetermined proximity, the server executes a first authentication protocol. Moreover, when the payment card is not located within the predetermined proximity, the server executes a second authentication protocol, wherein the second authentication protocol is more restrictive than the first authentication protocol.

  • Publication number: 20240211804
    Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate to systems, methods, and computing devices for managing the processing and execution of machine learning classifiers across a variety of platforms. Machine classifiers can be developed to process a variety of input datasets. In several embodiments, a variety of transformations can be performed on raw data to generate the input datasets. The raw data can be obtained from a disparate set of data sources each having its own data format. The generated input datasets can be formatted using a common data format and/or a data format specific for a particular machine learning classifier. A sequence of machine learning classifiers to be executed can be determined and the machine learning classifiers can be executed on one or more computing devices to process the input datasets. The execution of the machine learning classifiers can be monitored and notifications can be transmitted to various computing devices.
