Title: Perception change-based adjustments in hearing prostheses
Inventor: FUNG STEPHEN
IPC: A61N1/36
Filed: 2017-09-25
Abstract: Presented herein are substantially automated techniques that enable an electro- acoustic or other hearing prosthesis implanted in a recipient to use objective measurements to determine when the recipient is likely experiencing sound perception changes. Once one or more perception changes are detected, the hearing prosthesis may initiate one or more remedial actions to, for example, address the perception changes. As described further below, the one or more remedial actions may include adjustments to the recipient's operational map to reverse the one or more perception changes.

Abstract: The customizable system of geolocation subject of this invention allows to associate to the usual geographic coordinates detected with known devices (for example GPS, Galileo or similar) relative to a specific person or object, some additional information useful to identify with more precision and less downtime the addressee. 
     In particular the registered user, after the download of the specific application, called "WAY.LINK", can associate to the system of coordinates inserted corresponding to a specific destination (phase (7)) one or more advanced functions, the most important of which is the "Time Limit Interval" (("Factor 1" - phases (13), (14), (15) and (16) - Fig. 1), which is the opportunity to associate to such coordinates one or more intervals of temporal validity, that indicate for the User the temporal intervals within the coordinates are valid. 
     By using this function it is possible for example, for an express courier, not only to reach the specific destination, but also to know the interval of time (time - date) or the intervals of time (time - date) the addressee is reachable (advanced functionality "Factor 2" - phase (17) - Fig. 1)). The system is furthermore able to provide, besides the pre-determined interval of time, the distance of the user from the indicated point. These functions (Factor 1 and 2) for Privacy issues need that the Addressee gives his permission, directly to the express courier, to use his data (otherwise the delivery will be made through the usual methods). 
     These functions, along with the others described in this patent, allow to associate to each user a string of information (called "GeoLink") that improves substantially the identification of a given addressee, reducing for example the downtime of a courier, with subsequent save of time and money. 
     The application "WAY.LINK" is easily downloadable through the common Platforms available online (for example "Google Play Store ®" or "Apple Store ®").

Abstract: A method is provided for preparing an area of the ground surface to be milled by a milling machine. Prior to performing any milling operation on the area of the ground surface, a survey vehicle separate from the milling machine is used to traverse the area. The survey vehicle detects the presence of buried obstacles with a sensor (28) and generates a sensor output signal indicative of the presence of the buried obstacle. The sensor output signal is received in a controller which generates a sprayer actuation signal and responds to the sensor output signal. A marking sprayer (32) is actuated in response to the sprayer actuation signal and sprays the ground surface above the obstacle with a visible marking emitted from the sprayer. Subsequently, a milling machine separate from the survey vehicle may be utilized to mill the ground surface and by observation of the visible markings the operator may avoid impacting the milling drum with the buried obstacles.
