Abstract: A system, a wearable device, and a method are provided which can increase the accuracy of physiological metrics while detecting if the patient ingested digital medicine and/or improve performance of the wearable device. The wearable device can comprise machine executable instructions that when executed by the processor, cause the processor to perform various algorithms, such as, for example, at least one of a step count algorithm, a body angle algorithm, a heart rate algorithm, a peak finder algorithm, an adaptive thresholding algorithm, a heart rate variability algorithm, a R-R cleaning Algorithm, a deltaR-R cleaning algorithm, a merge twin interval algorithm, a split tall intervals algorithm, an absorb short intervals algorithm, a bimodal detection algorithm, and a resting algorithm.

Abstract: This apparatus can detect a user proximity to handwashing stations by electronic mechanism of proximity sensing with radio tags and anonymously tracking tagless users. It can also guide them through proper approved hand washing hygiene steps through visual/auditory cues, can track Users time/proximity in following hand hygiene guidance, and can communicate User handwashing data to a remote database from which data can be accessed.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods, apparatuses, and systems for manufacturing a building element. In one aspect, a molding system for forming a building element is provided. The molding system includes a mold having a base and a lid. The base includes a side wall; an adjustable internal side wall assembly comprising at least two internal side wall segments movable relative to the side wall and the other internal side wall segment and arranged in a piled stack; an end wall; and an adjustable internal end wall assembly comprising at least two internal end wall segments movable relative to the end wall and the other internal end wall segment and arranged in a piled stack. The side wall, the end wall, the floor, the lid, at least one internal end wall segment, and at least one internal side wall segment, co-operatively define a cuboid cavity for molding the building element.

Abstract: A batten for use in roofing applications is defined by an upside-down U-shaped channel with outwardly projecting horizontal flanges. In certain versions, the legs forming the sides of the channel are asymmetrical to allow vertical orientation of at least one of the legs when installed on an angled roof. This improves strength and load bearing of the installed member, and allows it to provide a fall barrier for roof installers. In certain versions, one of the flanges has a ribbed impact reduction zone. This zone deforms when a building anchor, such as a nail, passes through it to anchor the member to a roof. The deformation prevents anchors fired from conventional equipment from passing completely through the member and holds the anchors more securely in place.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are presented for resolving any interference, noise, and/or collisions caused by two or more ingestible event markers (IEMs) transmitting simultaneously or concurrently. Methods include techniques from the perspective of the IEM for randomly varying signal transmission characteristics in order to avoid collisions with other concurrently transmitting IEMs. Methods also include techniques from the perspective of a receiver for receiving multiple transmission signals from multiple IEMs and for resolving any interference or signal collisions.

Abstract: Low resolution information streams are combined in a broadcast carrier and broadcast along with full resolution information streams down a television broadcast network. The low resolution streams may be decoded and displayed in mosaic display with multiple images from separate low resolution streams simultaneously displayed. When a user selects a particular channel to be displayed, a low resolution stream associated with the selected channel is displayed (video and audio) while the full resolution stream is processed for display. Once the full resolution stream is available for display, it replaces the low resolution stream. The user perceives a much lower channel change time by viewing the low resolution stream during the channel change delay. The low resolution stream may also be provided directly to a portable media player (PMP) in a low resolution format required for display by the PMP.
