  • Patent number: 11922454
    Abstract: An example method includes detecting, using a user interaction tracking module associated with a website, access of a user of a webpage that is part of the website. The website provides multiple products for sale and is operated by an entity. The user interaction tracking module is provided by an offer aggregator entity that is distinct from the entity. The website has a theme providing a look and feel for the website. The method further includes accessing a profile of the user and identifying, based on the profile of the user, multiple offers to provide to the user. Each offer includes an offer title and a reference to one or more products of the multiple products. The method further includes providing for display to the user in the webpage the multiple offers.

  • Patent number: 11798176
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for universal body movement translation and character rendering. Motion data from a source character can be translated and used to direct movement of a target character model in a way that respects the anatomical differences between the two characters. The movement of biomechanical parts in the source character can be converted into normalized values based on defined constraints associated with the source character, and those normalized values can be used to inform the animation of movement of biomechanical parts in a target character based on defined constraints associated with the target character.

  • Patent number: 10211466
    Abstract: A resilient sealing member (27) has a first face (40) and a second face (41) and an aperture (42) extending between the first face and the second face. At least two, preferably three or more, circumferential ridges (43, 44, 45) surround the aperture on the first face. Channels (46, 47) may be disposed between each adjacent pair of circumferential ridges and a flat seal may be provided on the first face, peripheral to the circumferential ridges. The flat seal may occupy a different plane than the plane occupied by apexes of the circumferential ridges. The resilient sealing member may be incorporated into interface seal assembly comprising a rigid frame (26) onto which it is molded. The rigid frame may comprise a printed circuit board (25). The interface seal assembly allows for an easily interchangeable seal on a refillable fuel cartridge (1) for a fuel cell apparatus.

  • Publication number: 20050121074
    Abstract: There is disclosed a water trap suitable for use in a mechanical ventilation circuit. The water trap comprises a cap (10) having formed therein an inlet (11) and an outlet (12), a fluid collection vessel (30) engageable with the cap (10), and a rotatable closure (20) interposed between the cap (10) and the fluid collection vessel (30) which includes at least one aperture (22, 23). The arrangement of the water trap is such that the fluid collection vessel (30) is operably linked to the closure (20) such that engagement or disengagement of the fluid collection vessel (30) from the cap (10) causes the closure (20) to be rotated.
