  • Publication number: 20230032131
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of continuously monitoring the biometrics of a user in order to determine and gather more accurate data on their mental state. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method of dynamically prompting the user in response to the monitoring of the user and the determination of the user's mental state. Aspects and/or embodiments seek to provide a method of substantially continuous monitoring of a user's mental state, and prompting of users based on their monitored mental state.

  • Publication number: 20220095974
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the determination or classification of the mental state of a user and associated confidence values for the determined mental state. More particularly, the present invention relates to the use of various sensor data to determine the mental states of users, such as optical heart data or electrocardiography data, for example, from wearable devices (in a variety of form-factors, for example smart watches, fitness trackers, smart rings, smart textile, headsets, or wearable patches) or other devices having sensors operable to detect relevant attributes of a user that can be used to determine the user's mental state, such as physiological attributes. Aspects and/or embodiments seek to provide methods and systems for detecting (or determining) a mental state and a confidence for the detected mental state of a user.

  • Publication number: 20130145249
    Abstract: The electronic device (12) comprises means for injecting into a document an annotation application (22) to extend the document. The annotation application (22) is suitable to be executed according to an extended document only in the context of execution of a document return management module (60) of a navigation application (56) on the source data and treated data of the document return management module (60) and by using the same functions as the document return management module (60) and that the document treated by the navigation application (56) comprises graphic elements, the annotation application (22) being suitable for anchoring an annotation (78) to a point of a graphic element of the document independently of the coordinates of the graphic element in the document.

  • Patent number: 5631088
    Abstract: A material used to fabricate sashes used by window assemblies. The material comprises a foam core covered by a cladding material. The foam core acts as a filler and provides insulation, while the cladding material protects the foam core from the environment and physical abuse. Often, a structural assembly or member is provided to stiffen the sash material. The cladding and structural assembly are placed into a mold and resin is injected into the mold between the cladding and the structural assembly. The resin cures to form the foam core. The foam core bonds the cladding and structural assembly together to form the sash material. The sash material is cut with woodworking tools to form a sash for a window assembly. The cladding is configured such that, when the window assembly is installed in a wall, interior vapor barrier material and exterior air barrier material applied to the wall overlap with the cladding material to reduce air flow through the wall around the window assembly.
