Publication number: 20230389858Abstract: A system has a body with a base having a top surface with a receiving region to receive the bottom of a single foot. Among other things, the base may be in the form of an open or closed platform with a plurality of temperature sensors in communication with the top surface of the receiving region. The plurality of temperature sensors is within the receiving region and configured to activate after receipt of a stimulus applied to one or both the platform and the plurality of temperature sensors. A comparator is configured to form a temperature range as a function of the temperature value distribution and compare a percentage of the range size of the temperature distribution to a threshold value. An output produces ulcer information indicating the emergence of an ulcer or pre-ulcer when the percentage of the range size equals or exceeds the threshold value.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2023Publication date: December 7, 2023Inventors: Brian Jude Petersen, David Robert Linders

Publication number: 20230240542Abstract: A method of monitoring a patient's foot forms a thermogram of the sole of at least one foot of the patient, and determines whether the thermogram presents at least one of a plurality of prescribed patterns. The method also compares the thermogram against a prior thermogram of the same foot, and produces output information indicating the emergence of an ulcer on a given portion on the at least one foot as a function of 1) whether the thermogram is determined to present the at least one pattern, and 2) the comparison with the prior thermogram, which shows non-ulcerated tissue at the given location.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 14, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: David Robert Linders, Jonathan David Bloom, Jeffrey Mark Engler, Brian Jude Petersen, Adam Geboff, David Charles Kale

Publication number: 20230185748Abstract: A Secure Enclave SiP (SE-SiP) is disclosed. The SE-SiP provides all the security benefits of a system designed using a Trusted Platform Module (TPM), replaces the need to trust a general-purpose CPU chip vendor with the need to trust a much simpler more trustworthy configurable device, and replaces the need to trust the entire system motherboard manufacturer with the much more limited need to trust the SE-SiP manufacturer. It can provide privacy for the software and data sent to the system, resident on it, or retrieved from it, with respect to all parties—including the person/party in physical possession of the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 21, 2021Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: Octavo Systems LLCInventors: Peter Robert LINDER, Masood MURTUZA, Erik James WELSH, William Arthur Fitzhugh LEE

Publication number: 20220211277Abstract: A method and apparatus for evaluating emergence of an ulcer each uses at least one temperature detection modality to form a first thermogram and a second thermogram of the sole of at least one foot. Each thermogram forms a substantially continuous set of two-dimensional temperature values across the sole of the (at least one) foot. The thermograms have features; namely, the first thermogram has first features and the second thermogram has second features. The method and apparatus thus control a device to apply at least one transformation to the first and second thermograms to align the first features with corresponding second features, and determine, at any thermogram location, if at least one of the thermograms presents one of a plurality of patterns indicative of inflammation. Finally, the method and apparatus each produce output information indicating the result of the determination of whether the thermograms present one of the plurality of patterns.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 24, 2022Publication date: July 7, 2022Inventors: Brian Petersen, Jonathan David Bloom, David Robert Linders, Jeffrey Mark Engler

Patent number: 11302648Abstract: Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding structures for use inside an electronic system are provided, which allow access for mold compound or cables by using baffle-like features on the shield's sides and/or top, as well as methods for shielding components from EMI, or for containing EMI. The structures block external RF from sensitive components and reduce EMI emission from internal, RF generating components.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2020Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: OCTAVO SYSTEMS LLCInventors: Masood Murtuza, Peter Robert Linder, Gene Alan Frantz

Patent number: 11057198Abstract: In one or more embodiments, an encryption key of a device may be split into multiple segments. One of the segments may be retained by an owner of the device, and some of the segments may be distributed to multiple entities. For example, one of the segments may be provided to a service provider, and one of the segments may be provided to an escrow agent. The escrow agent may process its segment, provide information based on its segment to a public ledger, and destroy its segment. A proxy agent may retrieve, from the public ledger, the information based on the segment provided to the escrow agent and obtain compensation. When the proxy agent obtains the compensation, the public ledger exhibits information utilizable to obtain the segment provided to the escrow agent. With the segments provided to the escrow agent and the service provider, the encryption key may be obtained.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2017Date of Patent: July 6, 2021Assignee: Assured Enterprises, Inc.Inventor: Peter Robert Linder
