Patent number: 11937701Abstract: A bed system includes microclimate control capabilities for providing quality sleep experience. The bed system can include a microclimate control subsystem configured to supply conditioned air (e.g., heated or cooled air) to a mattress, or draw ambient air from the mattress, to achieve a desired temperature at the top of the mattress. Utilizing supply of conditioned air to provide air at desired temperature to the mattress system, or utilizing air suction to drain heat away from the mattress system, can provide precise microclimate control at the mattress, thereby permitting conformable sleep.Type: GrantFiled: January 4, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignee: Sleep Number CorporationInventors: Kody Lee Karschnik, Chee Nong Yang, Eric Stephen Rose, Caleb Siffring, Alexander Norell, Reuben Wesley Meline

Publication number: 20240070625Abstract: Systems, computer program products, and methods are described herein for generating and authenticating use of a voucher associated with a resource in a distributed network. A distribution authentication system, like that described herein, is configured to generate a resource voucher based on a resource distribution from a transferor account to a recipient account, the resource voucher comprising an expiration period; receive a request for a voucher distribution; and authenticate, in response to receiving the request for the voucher distribution, whether the voucher distribution has met the expiration period, wherein, in the instance where the voucher distribution has met the expiration period, automatically redistribute the resource distribution to the transferor account.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2022Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: BANK OF AMERICA CORPORATIONInventors: Jennifer Tiffany Renckert, Mary Clark, Mayakoothan Krishnan, Nagalakshmi Nagendra, Nariah Uchechi Kamalu Barnes, Nicholas Stephen Rose, Nicolas Kouamou Kabse, Tyler McFadden

Publication number: 20230035257Abstract: A sleep system can introduce outside stimulus such as simulated heartbeat and/or respiration to induce a response from the sleeper which can cause the sleeper's body to mimic or mate up with the delivered heartbeat and/or respiration sequence. Simulated heartbeat and/or respiration introduced to the person's sleeping environment can guide the person from an awake state to a sleeping state, help the person transition between sleep stages, help the person maintain one or more sleep stages for longer or shorter durations, and gently guide the person from an asleep state to an awake state. The simulated heartbeat and/or respiration can also improve the quality of sleep that the person experiences in a given sleep phase.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 22, 2022Publication date: February 2, 2023Inventors: Kody Lee Karschnik, Eric Stephen Rose
