Abstract: A digital stethoscope includes a stethoscope housing defining a housing edge. The digital stethoscope also includes a surface region secured to the stethoscope housing at the housing edge, and a number of microphones. The digital stethoscope also includes a processing device disposed within the stethoscope housing and in communication with the microphones. The processing device receives the digital audio data from the microphones.

Abstract: Thin-film devices, for example, multi-zone electrochromic windows, and methods of manufacturing are described. In certain cases, a multi-zone electrochromic window comprises a monolithic EC device on a transparent substrate and two or more tinting zones, wherein the tinting zones are configured for independent operation.

Abstract: Disclosed technology includes receiving a communication from a communication sending device. It is determined whether the received communication from the communication sending device is a spam communication. A response comprising one or more tasks is generated when the received communication is determined as spam communication. The generated response comprising one or more tasks is sent to the communication sending device.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, and systems for mitigating pinhole defects in optical devices such as electrochromic windows. One method mitigates a pinhole defect in an electrochromic device by identifying the site of the pinhole defect and obscuring the pinhole to make it less visually discernible. In some cases, the pinhole defect may be the result of mitigating a short-related defect.

Abstract: In some embodiments a processor can receive inputs associated with a user and classify, based on a first machine learning model using at least one input rubric, each input from the inputs into an input type. The processor can define, based on the input type of each input, a first set of inputs associated with a first evaluation type and a second set of inputs associated with a second evaluation type. The processor can select a second machine learning model based on the first evaluation type and can extract, using the second machine learning model, from the first set of inputs a pattern associated with the user, evaluate a first state of the user based on the pattern and a second state of the user based on the second set of inputs, and generate an assessment of the user based on the first state and the second state.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for predictive gaming regarding on a live event, such as a live electronic event or an esports event. The systems and methods provide means for users to simultaneously watch a live event and wager on an outcome of the live event.

Abstract: An apparatus detects and measures vital signs of each human target by a continuous, non-intrusive method. In an example, the vital signs of interest include a heart rate and a respiratory rate, which can provide valuable information about the human's wellness. Additionally, the heart rate and respiratory rate can also be used to identify a particular person, if more than two target humans are living in a home. The apparatus has a natural convection spatial flow path that draws heat from at least one processor, one fan-less radar and a heat sink.

Abstract: In an example, the present technique includes a method for capturing information from a spatial region to monitor human activities and create a spatial map of the spatial region. In an example, the technique allows a user of a cell phone to move from one location to another location and be tracked using rf backscattering, and each location being identified by the user by communicating a label via a cell phone or other mobile device.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes systems and methods for simulating gameplay of a live event and placing wagers or non-wager submissions concerning an outcome of a simulation. The systems incorporate statistical data, event information, and user modifications to create the simulation.

Abstract: In an example, the autonomous vehicle (“AV”) can be configured among the other vehicles and railway to communicate with a rider on a peer to peer basis to pick up the rider on demand from a location on a track, like a railway, tram or other track, rather than the rider being held hostage to a fixed railway schedule. The rider can have an application on his/her cell phone, which tracks each of the AVs, and contact them using the application on the cell phone. In an example, the AV is configured for both on-track and off track operation with different operating parameters for on-track and off track, including speed, degree of autonomy, sensors used etc.

Abstract: A method includes monitoring a geospatial location of a user of a mobile device having a processor communicatively coupled to a memory through the mobile device, date stamping and time stamping the geospatial location of the user through the mobile device, and monitoring, through a server having another processor communicatively coupled to another memory and/or the mobile device, an interaction of the user with the mobile device and/or a device communicatively coupled to the server based on the geospatial location of the user. The method also includes predicting, through the server and/or the mobile device, an event related to the mobile device and/or the device based on the monitoring of the interaction of the user therewith, and enabling, through the server and/or the mobile device, automatic performance of an action on the mobile device and/or the device on behalf of the user in accordance with the prediction of the event.
