  • Patent number: 11875025
    Abstract: Computer systems and methods may display multi-dimensional data sets in a dynamically-generated ocular view, which may show the relationship between data points in the different dimensions. For example, such a data set may include in one dimension results of one or more laboratory tests and, in another dimension, body systems or functions that the respective tests may relate to. The ocular view may depict the relationships between the tests and the systems. By being generated dynamically, moreover, the ocular view may be able to present this information for arbitrary sets of test results, without a template having been generated in advance to specify the layout of some particular combination of results.

  • Publication number: 20240009084
    Abstract: The present specification describes a medicine dispensing system for automatically dispensing medication at a predetermined time. The system includes a cartridge that carries a strip of medicine pouches. When the cartridge is dropped into a dispensing unit, it automatically aligns with the dispensing unit without requiring any installation work from the user. The automatic alignment is enabled because of self-aligning features manufactured in the cartridge housing.

  • Patent number: 11861857
    Abstract: Sensors, including time-of-flight sensors, may be used to detect objects in an environment. In an example, a vehicle may include a time-of-flight sensor that images objects around the vehicle, e.g., so the vehicle can navigate relative to the objects. The sensor may generate first image data at a first configuration and second image data at a second configuration. A disambiguated depth of a surface may be determined from the first image data and the second image data. If the disambiguated depth is greater than a nominal maximum depth of the sensor in the first configuration, an intensity of the surface may be determined from the first image data. If the intensity meets or exceeds a threshold intensity, the surface may be determined to be beyond the nominal maximum depth. If the intensity is less than the threshold intensity, an actual depth of the surface may be determined form the second image data as a distance less than the nominal maximum depth.

  • Publication number: 20230419729
    Abstract: A behavior detection platform may obtain video data of an environment including a guest and may determine a set of normal guest behaviors associated with the environment. The platform may analyze, using a first machine learning model, the video data to identify features of the guest and analyze, using a second machine learning model, the video data and the features to determine an actual guest behavior of the guest. The platform may predict, using the second machine learning model, a predicted guest behavior of the guest based on the actual guest behavior. The behavior detection platform may determine that at least one of the actual guest behavior or the predicted guest behavior is not included in the set of normal guest behaviors. The platform may cause assistance to be provided to the guest based on determining that the actual guest behavior or the predicted guest behavior are not included.

  • Patent number: 11849013
    Abstract: Techniques for embedding fabric addressing information within Ethernet media access control (MAC) addresses is disclosed herein and allows a multi-node fabric having potentially millions of nodes to feature Ethernet encapsulation without the necessity of a lookup or map to translate MAC addresses to fabric-routable local identifiers (LIDs). In particular, a locally-administered MAC address may be encoded with fabric addressing information including a LID. Thus a node may exchange Ethernet packets using a multi-node fabric by encapsulating each Ethernet packet with a destination MAC address corresponding to an intended destination. As the destination MAC address may implicitly map to a LID of the multi-node fabric, the node may use an extracted LID value therefrom to address a fabric-routable packet. To this end, a node may introduce a fabric-routable packet encapsulating an Ethernet packet onto a multi-node fabric without necessarily performing a lookup to map a MAC address to a corresponding LID.

  • Patent number: 11840842
    Abstract: A latch assembly includes a latch body having a longitudinal wall portion extending from a front wall portion to a rear hinge portion, first and second latch members assembled with the longitudinal wall portion and laterally movable between an extended position and a retracted position, and a hinge bracket. The hinge bracket defines a mounting surface and is hingedly attached to the rear hinge portion of the latch body for angular adjustment of the latch body with respect to the mounting surface. When the latch body is oriented at a first angle, first and second mounting apertures in the front wall portion align with first and second mounting apertures in the hinge bracket, such that installation of mounting fasteners through the corresponding first and second mounting apertures of the front wall portion and the hinge bracket secures the latch body at the first angle.

  • Patent number: 11841732
    Abstract: A predictive clock controller is provided for modifying the frequency of a clock signal provided to a processing unit based on knowledge of the power usage by the application running on the processing unit during different execution periods. The predictive clock controller counts barrier syncs for the application, so as to determine where the application is in its sync schedule. The predictive clock controller is able to determine from the number of counted syncs, when the application will transition from one execution period to another execution period with different power requirements, and to adjust the clock frequency accordingly.
