Patent number: 11047392Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for determining a use condition of an appliance, such as a sump pump, and outputting an indication of the current use condition of the appliance. A system implementing the method will first generate an actual first signature of a first characteristic associated with the appliance. The system will then generate an actual second signature of a second characteristic associated with the appliance. Each of the actual first and second signatures are then compared to corresponding expected signatures. The system then selects a current use condition from a plurality of use conditions based on the relationship between the actual signatures and the expected signatures.Type: GrantFiled: April 17, 2020Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: CONNECTM TECHNOLOGY SOLUTIONS, INC.Inventors: Nayeem M. Hussain, Ryan T. Fant, William J. McLeod, Theodore R. Ullrich, Dean DiPietro, Nathan Gardner Meryash, Pepin Sebastian Gelardi

Patent number: 9307138Abstract: A method of determining a focal distance between a principal camera and a target object utilizes first and second video cameras mounted in spaced apart positions relative to a principal camera. A first video image from the first video camera is displayed on a video monitor and a second video image from the second video signal is superimposed onto the first image. First and second controllers are provided for positioning the first and second video images, respectively, on the video monitor. First and second position signals corresponding to positioning of the first and second video images, respectively, are acquired. When the images of a target object in the two video images are aligned, the position signals are used to compute the focal distance from the principal camera to the object.Type: GrantFiled: April 22, 2014Date of Patent: April 5, 2016Assignee: Convexity Media, Inc.Inventors: Enver Gjokaj, Daniel Raymond Long, Theodore R.

Publication number: 20140208601Abstract: A device includes a structural housing that defines a rising chamber configured to receive a portion of a wet shaving apparatus. The structural housing is configured to house a filter, a fluid reservoir, a pump, and a set spray head. The pump defines at least a portion of a first fluid flow path between the fluid reservoir and the spray head and is configured to be activated such that a volume of fluid flows within the first fluid flow path from the fluid reservoir to the spray heads to be expelled into the rinsing chamber. The filter defines at least a portion of a second fluid flow path between the rinsing chamber and the fluid reservoir. The filter is configured to filter the volume of fluid as the volume of fluid flows within the second fluid flow path from the rinsing chamber to the fluid reservoir.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2013Publication date: July 31, 2014Applicant: ShaveSimpl, Inc.Inventors: Craig S.
