Abstract: An adapter for putting two incompatible medical systems in fluid communication with each other. The adapter may have a continuous outer diameter and may include two segments: a first segment composed of a rigid material and including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion having a continuous outer diameter and the second portion defining one or more flanges, the first segment defining a first passage therethrough; and a second segment composed of a flexible material and coupled to the first segment, including a first portion and a second portion. The first portion of the second segment may have an inner surface configured to surround the flanges of the second portion of the first segment, and the second portion of the second segment having a tapered inner surface, the second segment defining a second passage therethrough that is continuous with the first passage.

Abstract: Techniques for generating leads for consumers using IoT devices at brick-and-mortar stores are provided. A retailer can determine a consumer's level of interest in a product and provide information or other benefits to the consumer. In some embodiments, sensor data from at least one of one or more consumer devices or IoT devices are received, the sensor data being indicative of interaction of a consumer with a product. One or more interactions of the consumer with the product are determined based on the received sensor data. An interaction database is searched for an interaction mapped to specific sensor data requirements matching the received sensor data. A leads score is calculated based on the one or more interactions, the leads score indicating an interest level of the consumer in the product. When the leads score exceeds a threshold, a lead is generated for the consumer.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems, methods, and computer storage media directed to providing targeted content related to sentiment associated with products. In one embodiment, an item is detected as being positioned in a physical shopping cart at a first time, the physical shopping cart being use by a user having a user device. At a second time after the first time, the item is detected as being removed from the physical shopping cart. Based on detecting the item as being removed from the physical shopping cart, content related to the item is provided to the user device of the user, the content intended to result in the user purchasing the item.

Abstract: An interactive email experience is customized to the recipient's interests by modifying rich media components provided by the email based on the recipient's interactions with other rich media components from the email. To facilitate the interactive email experience, rich media components are provided by a marketer for an email campaign with mapping information mapping product features to portions of the rich media components. When an email is sent with links to the rich media components, the recipient's interactions with a rich media component is tracked. Product features are ranked based on the recipient's interactions with various portions corresponding with the various product features. The product feature rankings are then used to modify other rich media components from the email to emphasize portions of the other rich media components corresponding with product features of interest to the recipient.

Abstract: Systems and methods disclosed herein score leads by determining and applying a scoring rule based on lead participation in an activity. This involves a processor of a computing device receiving information on participation in the activity by prior leads that resulted in conversions or rejections. A scoring rule is determined for the activity by assigning a score to the activity based on the information on participation in the activity by the prior leads that resulted in the conversions or the rejections. A new lead is scored using the scoring rule by assigning the new lead the score based on participation by the new lead in the activity. The scoring of the new lead can be used in various ways. In one example, the score of the new lead is used to determine to send a communication to the new lead.

Abstract: An optical device with a deformable membrane (2) including an anchor area (2.3) on a support (1) entrapping a liquid or gas fluid, a central area (2.1) reversibly deformable from a rest position, actuating means for moving the fluid (4) biasing the membrane (2) into an intermediate area between the anchor area (2.3) and the central area (2.1), the actuating means include a piezoelectric continuous crown accommodating several actuators (5.1), this crown surrounding the central area (2.1), the actuating means (5) being anchored to the membrane (2) in at least the intermediate area (2.2), the actuating means (5) and the membrane (2) to which they are anchored, forming at least one piezoelectric bimorph (B), the actuating means (5) radially contracting or extending upon actuation so as to generate a movement of said fluid (4) from the intermediate area (2.2) to the central area (2.1) of the membrane (2) or vice versa, aiming at deforming the central area (2.1) with respect to its rest position.
