  • Digital model optimization responsive to orientation sensor data
    Patent number: 10223741
    Abstract: A system server includes a database of two-dimensional images and a processor coupled to a hardware memory with instructions that in response to execution by the processor direct performance of operations. The operations include generating a digital model from the images in the database and communicating a first portion of the digital model as an enhanced view to a user device. The first portion corresponds to a first line of sight orientation of the user device as measured by an orientation sensor. The operations include receiving a signal based on sensor data measured by the orientation sensor. The signal indicates movement of the user device from the first line of sight orientation to a second line of sight orientation. In response, the method includes communicating a second portion of the digital model to the user device that corresponds to the second line of sight orientation of the user device.

  • INSTANT MESSAGING ROBOT TO PROVIDE PRODUCT INFORMATION
    Publication number: 20190034992
    Abstract: Methods and systems to automatically respond to a request for product information are described. In one embodiment, a data collection module may collect product data over a network, identify that the product data is related to a particular product, and store the product data and an association between the product data and the particular product in a database. An instant messaging engine may receive a request for the product data after the product data is stored in the database and an interpreter module may identify, in response to the request, the request to correspond to the particular product and retrieve the product data based on the association between the particular product and the product data. The instant messaging engine may also transmit, using an instant messaging protocol, a response to the request, the response including the product data.

  • POST DRIVER AND PULLER COMBO
    Publication number: 20180258603
    Abstract: A post driver and puller combo includes a hollow main cylinder capable of accommodating a fence post, and a post-pulling mechanism provided at an upper portion of the main cylinder and disposed transversely therethrough. The post-pulling mechanism is freely detachable from the main cylinder. A user can insert a fence post into the hollow main cylinder and hit the top of the fence post to drive it into the ground. To extract the post, the user places the main cylinder at one side of the post and uses the post-pulling mechanism to engage with the post so that it can be pulled out of the ground. The device is a combination of a fence post erection machine and a fence post extraction machine. The device is simple in structure, easy to assemble, light in weight, and easy to transport.

  • USE OF NEUROKININ-1 ANTAGONISTS AS ANTITUSSIVES
    Publication number: 20180235931
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to the use of neurokinin-1 (NK-1) antagonists, such as serlopitant, MK-0303 or MK-8478, in alleviating or suppressing cough (including acute, subacute and chronic cough) and urge to cough. The cough can have an unknown cause (idiopathic cough) or can be associated with any type of medical condition, such as a respiratory disorder. The NK-1 antagonist can be delivered by oral inhalation for more rapid peripheral and central antitussive action. Another antitussive agent in addition to the NK-1 antagonist can optionally be administered for the treatment of the cough or urge to cough, or the cough-associated medical condition.
