Publication number: 20240141629Abstract: Systems and methods for monitoring a plumbing system. A sensor module includes an acoustic flow sensor, and is configured to be attached to a water pipe. In response to receiving sound at the acoustic flow sensor above a threshold level, the sensor module wakes up from a low-power sleep mode and begins collecting acoustic data. The acoustic data is analyzed to determine if water is flowing through the pipe, and if so, a thermal flow sensor may also be activated. Flow data is collected while the water is flowing to document the flow event. In response to the sensor module determining the flow of water has stopped, the collected data is transmitted to a remote server, and the sensor module returns to sleep mode. Multiple sensor modules can be deployed to form a sensor network that communicates wirelessly to monitor the plumbing system.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2023Publication date: May 2, 2024Inventors: Tao Li, Steven G.

Patent number: 11966879Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to the sharing of synchronization information corresponding to content among devices in a communication network. An originating device collects synchronization information related to the presentation of content to a user via the originating device. The synchronization information is defined according to reference points related to the presentation of the content to the user via the originating device, including a current state of the presentation of the content and/or additional information obtained during the presentation of the content. Based on detection of a synchronization event, the originating device transmits the collected synchronization information, resulting in the receipt of the synchronization information by one or more receiving devices. Thereafter, the presentation of the content to the user on one of the receiving devices can incorporate the synchronization information collected and transmitted by the originating device.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Steven Kessel, Ian W.
