  • Publication number: 20240100284
    Abstract: A respiratory interface system for use in delivering a flow of a positive pressure breathing gas to an airway of a patient that includes a patient interface device with a tubing assembly structured to be disposed on the head of the patient, a mask having a sealing element structured to sealingly engage about the airway of the patient, and an adaptor. The adapter includes a flange portion that extends generally radially outward from a central aperture and a hollow male connector extending from the flange portion and coupled with a correspondingly-shaped female connector of the tubing assembly or the mask. The mask is coupled to the tubing assembly via the adaptor, and the tubing assembly, the mask, and the adapter define a pathway structured to conduct the flow of the positive pressure breathing gas to the airway of the patient.

  • Publication number: 20240098186
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for centralized validation of potential network calls, such as calls proposing database transactions, on a distributed system. The distributed system may include multiple systems that apply independent criteria for validating proposals, which criteria may not be available external to the individual systems. Moreover, the systems may lack an ability to validate proposals prior to submitting such proposals for commitment. A centralized network call parameter validation system as disclosed herein may validate potential network calls with high confidence by applying probability models of data pattern and hashing digit checksum to potential network call parameter values, which models are generated based on statistical analysis of historical network call values.

  • Patent number: 11931898
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, when executed by data processing hardware of a robot having an articulated arm and a base, causes data processing hardware to perform operations. The operations include determining a first location of a workspace of the articulated arm associated with a current base configuration of the base of the robot. The operations also include receiving a task request defining a task for the robot to perform outside of the workspace of the articulated arm at the first location. The operations also include generating base parameters associated with the task request. The operations further include instructing, using the generated base parameters, the base of the robot to move from the current base configuration to an anticipatory base configuration.

  • Patent number: 11651313
    Abstract: A security threat candidate (STC) detector examines a set of activity log records representing access requests directed to data artifacts by various entities of an organization. In a first threat analysis, the STC detector determines that an activity log record indicates a use of an access path which is not present in a database of legitimate access paths for an entity. In a second threat analysis, the STC detector determines whether the behavior of the entity matches a stored suspect behavior pattern template. Results of the first and/or second analysis are transmitted to a selected security management component of the organization.

  • Publication number: 20230066592
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method executed by data processing hardware of a robot causes the data processing hardware to receive sensor data associated with a door. The data processing hardware determines, using the sensor data, door properties of the door. The door properties can include a door width, a grasp search ray, a grasp type, a swing direction, or a door handedness. The data processing hardware generates a door movement operation based on the door properties. The data processing hardware can execute the door movement operation to move the door. The door movement operation can include pushing the door, pulling the door, hooking a frame of the door, or blocking the door. The data processing hardware can utilize the door movement operation to enable a robot to traverse a door without human intervention.

  • Patent number: 11591946
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for maintaining a temperature of exhaust gases of an engine within a temperature range at which catalytic conversion is most efficient. In one example, a method for controlling a temperature of exhaust gases entering a Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) system for an engine comprises delivering pressurized air into the exhaust gases upstream of the SCR system, the pressurized air cooled by an air cooler; and adjusting a degree of pressurization by adjusting operation of a turbocharger pressurizing the pressurized air. In one embodiment, the air cooler may be a charge air cooler of a primary turbocharger of the engine, which may flow pressurized air both to the engine and to the SCR system. In other embodiments, the air may be pressurized by an air pump or a secondary dilution turbocharger, and cooled by a secondary charge air cooler.
