Patent EP-4118403-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CAHILL NIALL
IPC: G01H3/12
Filed: 2020-03-10
Abstract: Methods of detecting and characterising a noise event are described, together with apparatus adapted to perform such methods. A method of characterising a noise event, involves locating microphones (21, 22) in an environment and generating a training event at a location (23, 24) in the environment as a reference for a noise event. A sound sample is recorded at each microphone and phase differences between the sound samples are used to establish a noise event signature for an event at that location. A noise event may subsequently be identified by taking sound samples from the microphones associated with the noise event and using phase differences between them to identify the noise event by matching against noise event signatures. A computing system adapted to perform such methods is also described.

Abstract: Cerebrovascular treatment at an intracranial location beyond the petrous segment of the carotid artery can be challenging due to blood vessel size and tortuosity. First pass cerebrovascular thrombectomy success rate under only fluoroscopic guidance can be low (e.g., 25.1%) but an angioscope can help improve efficacy. A sheath catheter can be advanced toward the cerebrovascular pathology. Its distal balloon can be inflated. An angioscope can be inserted via its working lumen for viewing. The sheath catheter can have a stepped-down lateral profile and can extend the working channel a distance beyond the balloon. A dual concentric lumen structure can include an inner body and an outer body, defining an inflation lumen therebetween, with one or more portions of one or more layers stretched or cut or both, such as to provide bending flexibility. Reflow techniques can be used to help bond layers together.

Abstract: The technology described herein is directed towards a system that provides a user propagated search platform. The system maintains campaign data for offers that when active, are made available to users of the platform. When a user of a (typically mobile) device selectively attaches to an active offer, the user device clones that offer, and as the user device travels, propagates the clone of the offer to other users (their user devices) for potential attachment. Those other users can in turn attach to the clone, to facilitate further propagation. The campaign data, as provided by a campaign producer such as a merchant, can specify various parameters, including location areas for attachment and clone travel, start and end times for a campaign's offer, different zones that can control different clone-related actions, and incentives for a user to attach to and propagate a clone of an offer.
