  • Patent number: 12288177
    Abstract: In a method of identifying a metric associated with a business, a computer system associated with the business recognizes a first user associated with a first communication device and a second user associated with a second communication device, wherein the first user is recognized as an employee of the business and the second user is recognized as an employee of the business. The computer system observes signals in between the first communication device and the second communication device, wherein at least a portion of the communication is an audible communication. The computer system identifies a metric based on the signals in the communication between the first communication device and the second communication device. The metric is then made available for decision making purposes.

  • Publication number: 20250133018
    Abstract: In a method of using structured communications in an observation platform with cloud computing, a signal from a first communication device is received by a second communication device associated with a first computer system. The second computer system forwards the signal from the first computer system to a second computer system, wherein the second computer system is physically remote from the first computer system and connected with the first computer system via a network. The second computer system derives context information for the signal, the deriving based on a plurality of factors derived from an analysis of the signal, wherein the plurality of factors comprises a speech to text analysis of the signal, and wherein the second computer system is cloud based. The second computer system determines at least one destination for the signal based on the plurality of factors for the context information.

  • Publication number: 20250116864
    Abstract: A method implemented by a computing device includes rendering on a first display and a second display of the computing device an extended reality (XR) environment, and determining a context of the XR environment with respect to a user. Determining the context includes determining characteristics associated with each eye of the user with respect to virtual content displayed within the XR environment. The method includes determining, based on the characteristics, a mapping of a first set of coordinates of the virtual content as displayed on the first display and a second set of coordinates of the virtual content as displayed on the second display, generating, based on the mapping of the first set of coordinates and the second set of coordinates, composite virtual content to be rendered on the first display and the second display; and re-rendering on the first display and the second display the composite virtual content.

  • Patent number: 12271995
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method may obtain, from an application, (a) an image and (b) a layer frame having a first pose in front of the image. The method may generate, for a first viewpoint associated with a first time, a first display frame by separately rendering the image and the layer frame having the first pose into a display buffer. The method may display the first display frame at the first time. The method may determine an extrapolated pose for the layer frame based on the first pose of the layer frame and a second pose of a previously submitted layer frame. The method may generate, for a second viewpoint associated with a second time, a second display frame by separately rendering the image and the layer frame having the extrapolated pose into the display buffer. The method may display the second display frame at the second time.

  • Patent number: 12268812
    Abstract: A control system provides automated control of gas washout of a patient interface, such as a mask or nasal prongs. A gas washout vent assembly of the system may include a variable exhaust area such as one defined by overlapping apertures of the assembly or a conduit having a variable gas passage channel. The vent assembly may be formed by nested structures, such as conic or cylindrical members, each having an opening of the overlapping apertures. The vent assembly may be attached substantially near or included with the patient interface. An actuator of the assembly, such as a solenoid or voice coil, manipulates an aperture of the vent assembly. The actuator may be configured for control by a controller to change the exhaust area of the vent assembly based on various methodologies including, for example, sleep detection, disordered breathing event detection, rebreathing volume calculation and/or leak detection.

  • Publication number: 20250093296
    Abstract: To form a layer separating two volumes of aqueous solution, there is used an apparatus comprising elements defining a chamber, the elements including a body of non-conductive material having formed therein at least one recess opening into the chamber, the recess containing an electrode. A pre-treatment coating of a hydrophobic fluid is applied to the body across the recess. Aqueous solution, having amphiphilic molecules added thereto, is flowed across the body to cover the recess so that aqueous solution is introduced into the recess from the chamber and a layer of the amphiphilic molecules forms across the recess separating a volume of aqueous solution introduced into the recess from the remaining volume of aqueous solution.
