Abstract: A system for providing aggregated patient data may include a processor and memory. The processor may receive clinical data items from a healthcare data system and device data items from healthcare devices, where the clinical data items and the device data items are associated with patients. The processor may generate patient data objects corresponding to the patients, where each patient data object includes the clinical data items and the device data items associated with one of the patients. The processor may filter the patient data objects based on access privileges of a third party organization to generate filtered patient data objects and transform the filtered patient data objects based on a data transformation rule associated with the third party organization to generate transformed patient data objects. The processor may provide, e.g. over a network, the transformed patient data objects to at least one device associated with the third party organization.

Abstract: A centralized communication system (CCS) is disclosed that provides a modular, extendible, and scalable communication system that can exchange information between any information systems or networked devices. Information from a single source device or system can be selectively broadcast to one or more predetermined destination devices and systems rather than broadcast to every device on the network. Information may be filtered and processed at one or more selectable points in the communication flow between systems. In certain embodiments, an incoming message is received from the source device in the native message format using the native protocol of the source device and converted to an internal messaging format for internal handling within the CCS, then converted to the native message format of a receiving system and sent to the receiving system using its native protocol. In certain embodiments, a graphical representation of the topology of the CCS may be provided.

Abstract: Some embodiments disclosed herein relate to an auxiliary optical device having one or more optical components, such as lenses, attached to a retainer portion. The retainer portion is configured to removably attach to mobile electronic devices such as mobile phones, tablet computers, media players, and the like. The retainer portion may include a movable mounting portion that achieves or maintains a substantially parallel orientation with respect to a face of a mobile electronic device even when a sidewall of the retainer portion is not parallel with respect to the face. An optical component may be mounted to the mounting portion, and movement of the mounting portion can facilitate a parallel orientation of the optical axis of the optical component with respect to an optical axis of an onboard camera of the mobile device.

Abstract: A multi-lens system can be configured to be selectively attachable to a mobile electronic device having a user-facing onboard camera lens and an outward-facing onboard camera lens. The multi-lens system can attach to the mobile electronic device in at least a first position and a second position. The first lens component in the first position is configured to be in optical alignment with the user-facing onboard camera lens and simultaneously the second lens component is configured to be in optical alignment with the outward-facing onboard camera lens. The first lens component in the second position is configured to be in optical alignment with the outward-facing onboard camera lens and simultaneously the second lens component is configured to be in optical alignment with the user-facing onboard camera lens. A portable attachment accessory can be configured to be selectively attachable to a lens system that is configured to receive a portion of a mobile electronic device.

Abstract: Scan printing systems and methods for reducing banding artifacts of an image printed on a substrate, including a substrate feeder assembly, a printhead adapted to print an encoder pattern on the substrate, a sensor, and a controller. The controller performs a feedback cycle of positioning the substrate relative to the printhead and instructs the printhead to print a band of the image when the encoder pattern has reached a target position. The controller repeats the feedback cycle of positioning the substrate relative to the printhead and instructs the printhead to print a subsequent band of the image until the entire image is printed on the substrate.
