The method includes identifying a boundary of the bed using data from the camera, identifying parts of the patient using data from the camera, and determining an orientation of the patient using the parts identified for the patient. The method further includes monitoring movement of the patient using the parts identified for the patient and computing a departure score indicating the likelihood of the patient departing the bed based on the orientation of the patient and the movement of the patient. The method further includes comparing the departure score to a predetermined threshold and generating a notification when the departure score exceeds the predetermined threshold.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2021Publication date: January 12, 2023Applicant: GE Precision Healthcare LLCInventors: Chinnakotla Krishna Teja Reddy, Raghu Prasad

Publication number: 20230008324Abstract: In some examples, design parameter data for an object can be received based on user input. A set of design criteria for the object can be received based on the design parameter data. A search of a learned design virtual reality (VR) database can be implemented to identify a set of candidate designs for the object based on the set of design criteria. The learned design VR database can include a plurality of previously determined designs for the object. Each candidate design for the object can be simulated in a simulation environment based on a learned design simulation database and optimization criteria to identify at least one new design for the object. A ranked design list can be generated ranking each candidate design and the at least one new design for the object based on ranking criteria.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 9, 2021Publication date: January 12, 2023Applicant: NORTHROP GRUMMAN SYSTEMS CORPORATIONInventors: SIBO CHOU, DANIEL W.

Publication number: 20230008325Abstract: A head module includes: a first control circuit; a first head having first nozzles configured to discharge liquid, the first head being electrically connected to the first control circuit; and a sensor electrically connected to the first control circuit and configured to detect an image formed on a recording medium. The first head has a first nozzle surface extended in a first direction and a second direction intersecting with the first direction, and the first nozzle surface includes a first region in which the first nozzles are formed along the first direction. The sensor includes a light-receiving element which has a light-receiving surface extended in the first direction and the second direction. In the first direction, a position of the light-receiving element is same as a position of the first region.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2022Publication date: January 12, 2023Inventor: Yuji KOGAME

Publication number: 20230008328Abstract: A helicopter tug apparatus for loading, transporting, and unloading a helicopter landing skid includes a plurality of landing skid loading units. The loading units are arranged to support the landing skid, and each of the loading units includes a skid cradle with a plurality of tug rollers configured to engage the landing skid. The loading units each include a drive track, and at least one motor for operating the skid cradle and the drive track. The rollers are reverse synchronized with the drive track, such that when the drive track moves the loading unit under the landing skid, the tug rollers turn in reverse to avoid placing lateral force on the landing skid.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 7, 2021Publication date: January 12, 2023Inventors: Anthony Chan, Tracy Haeggstrom
