  • Publication number: 20240060924
    Abstract: A device for measuring conductivity of a fluid. The device including a chamber and at least two electrodes. The chamber includes an inlet, an outlet, an upper surface, and a lower surface that runs separate from the upper surface. The fluid enters the chamber through the inlet and flows out of the chamber through the outlet. Moving along a length of the chamber from the inlet to the outlet or from the outlet to the inlet, a distance between the upper surface and the lower surface changes in at least one dimension of the chamber. The two electrodes are configured to measure electrical voltage in the fluid that enters the chamber through the inlet and flows out of the chamber through the outlet.

  • Patent number: 11902042
    Abstract: A method includes receiving, from an entity, a request to organize a survey on a topic, based on the request, organizing a survey of a plurality of people, recording a video of the survey, obtaining a transcription of the video and linking the transcription of the video in time to the video to yield a processed video. The method can further include presenting, on a user interface to the entity based on the processed video, the video and the transcription of the video, wherein each word in the transcription of the video is selectable by the entity, receiving a selection of text by the entity from the transcription of the video and, based on the selection of the text, presenting a portion of the video at a time that is associated with when a participant in the video spoke the text. The user can also select a “clip to next speaker” option to generate a clip.

  • Publication number: 20240019252
    Abstract: A navigation system can identify locations of interest at a route destination. Those locations of interest at the destination can fall within a predetermined distance of the destination or those that are responsive to a query that includes the destination as a parameter. The navigation system can receive a selection of an identified location of interest near the destination, and update a route to terminate at the identified location of interest rather than the original destination. Information identifying the origin and destination for the route can be collected at a first user device and the route can be displayed at a second user device. Additional information is then received from the first user device (such as a selection of an identified location of interest near the destination). This additional information received at the first user device is used to update the route that is displayed on the second user device.

  • Patent number: 11826545
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical blood detector system that rapidly detects the presence of blood due to a blood leak in a system. The blood detector system contains a reusable blood sensor that is able to accurately detect the presence of blood in, for example, an extracorporeal blood treatment system by optically sensing light from a sensing region and determining if the light came from a leaked blood. The blood sensor may be responsive to reflected light or light emitted from blood due to bio-fluorescence excited by a light source in the blood detector system. The blood detector system can be placed against absorbent material adjacent to an intravenous needle injection site and quickly detect any blood wicked into the absorbent material. The blood detector system can eliminate the need for medical personnel to continuously inspect numerous patients visually for potentially fatal blood leaks due to needle dislodgement.
