  • Patent number: 11148901
    Abstract: An apparatus and method for applying discrete segments to a continuous web includes feeding a first continuous web to a roller, the first continuous web comprising one or more layers, feeding a second continuous web to a vacuum anvil, cutting the first continuous web into a plurality of discrete segments via interaction of the roller with at least one cutting element selectively positionable adjacent the roller, transferring each of the plurality of discrete segments from the roller onto the second continuous web at a first location and via a vacuum pressure from the vacuum anvil, and bonding each of the plurality of discrete segments to the second continuous web at a second location downstream from the first location in a machine direction, each of the plurality of discrete segments bonded to the second continuous web via interaction of the vacuum anvil with a bonding device positioned at the second location.

  • Publication number: 20170249713
    Abstract: The disclosure recites a system and method for managing relationships among records in a database of services provided by health professionals and users. The method comprises: creating and maintaining a first set of records in the database for a user, the first set of records including fields for a name, contact information and a goal; creating and maintaining a second set of records in the database for health professional records in the second set including fields for a name, programs and activities; analyzing the database to identify a set of health professional records in the second set of records that match the goal in the first set; generating and sending a set of programs offered by the set of health professionals to an account associated with the user; and track progression of a selected program in a network, such as a social network.

  • Publication number: 20160327653
    Abstract: An apparatus including a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) antenna, a mobile GNSS receiver connected to the GNSS antenna, a camera operable to produce an image, and a processor communicably coupled to the mobile GNSS receiver and the camera. The mobile GNSS receiver is operable to produce a set of carrier-phase measurements from a GNSS. The processor is operable to receive the image and the set of carrier-phase measurements, extract point feature measurements from the image, model the point feature measurements based on the image to produce a point feature model, model the set of carrier-phase measurements to produce a carrier-phase model, execute a cost function including the point feature measurements, the carrier-phase measurements, the point feature model, and the carrier-phase model, and determine a state associated with the apparatus based on the executed cost function.
