It is an innovative online agricultural platform which provides a direct avenue for transactions between farmers and consumers. The Harvest Hub website redefines the dynamics of traditional markets.
Objectives of the Invention
The main objective of this website is to create an open, neighborhood-based marketplace that would enable farmers to directly market and sell their commodities while giving customers quick access to goods that are obtained locally.
Background of the Invention
The Harvest Hub website was created in response to the shortcomings of traditional agricultural marketplaces. It uses digital technology to solve inefficiencies and satisfies consumer demands for sustainability and transparency in the agricultural supply chain.
The intelligent automated assistant system in (US2020/10706841B2) interacts with the user through integrated, conversational natural language dialogue and utilizes external services as necessary to acquire information or execute various tasks. You can deploy the system on various platforms such as the web, email, smartphones, or any combination thereof. In one embodiment, the system relies on interconnected domains and tasks, leveraging supplementary functionalities enabled by external services the system can interact with.
The disclosure (US2022/11329840B2) describes a gateway device that provides and oversees interactive user voice-controlled home automation services across at least the endpoint devices it links to. Interfaces facilitate communication between the gateway device and at least one endpoint device situated within a user's premises and data networks. A processor connected to the interfaces and programming in the server executes a communications program to configure the gateway for communication with endpoint devices, associate endpoint devices with the gateway, and interact with a remote server to access service management center applications. A home automation control program facilitates operation through a home automation controller integrated within the gateway, utilizing voice automation messaging protocols. This enables interactive voice-controlled management of endpoint devices through voice commands and automates functions related to these devices.
One embodiment of a data processing system that includes a memory device for storing instructions and one or more processors for executing the stored instructions is described in (US2022/11303686B2). The instructions allow one or more processors to create a virtual assistant that accepts voice input from a media playback device linked to the data processing system. Using one or more processors, the virtual assistant receives a voice command at the media playback device to schedule an event. It then identifies the user account associated with the voice command, determines the type of command based on contextual information, and selects a target device for the media playback associated with the event.
Additionally (US2023/11676601B2), one embodiment of a system for voice assistant tracking and activation comprises a tracking component, a wake component, a listening component, and a link component. The tracking component monitors the availability of numerous voice assistant services. The wake component aims to recognize multiple wake words, each of which corresponds to a specific voice assistant service from a variety of voice assistant services. We design the listening component to receive sounds and identify a primary wake word from a set of wake words, which corresponds to a specific voice assistant service within a range of voice assistant services. The link component establishes a voice connection with the primary voice assistant service to facilitate user voice input.
This disclosure details a vehicle incorporating one or more processing modules. The vehicle's multiple buses connect and interface with these modules, facilitating information transfer among the various components. We additionally modularize each processing module, enabling the addition and replacement of functional modules in the present and future. These functional modules can serve as individual vehicle components. Each processing module may delegate tasks to other modules based on its operational status, processing load, or external control. The many processing modules make it easier to set up a middleware control point for the vehicle. They do this by using redundancy in processing and putting an emphasis on safety and security in their uses, as explained in (US2018/10020995B2).

All things considered, the Harvest Hub website is a creative solution that encourages direct communication, supports sustainability, and is changing the direction of agricultural trade in the future.
Detailed Description of the Invention
Farmers are able to market and sell their products directly to clients with the assistance of this innovative website, eliminating the need for intermediaries involved in the transaction. Due to the fact that it is committed to transparency, Harvest Hub provides farmers with increased control over pricing and fair compensation for their labor contributions. As part of the software needs, HTML, CSS, and Java Script are utilized in the process of developing websites. While we were developing a website for the Harvest Hub, we broke the project down into a number of different modules or components in order to ensure that the design would be both structured and modular. It has been decided to add the following modules to the website of the Harvest Hub. The current disclosure pertains to a method and equipment for collecting microscopic tissue columns (MTCs) that makes use of one or more hollow needles to remove the MTCs from a tissue donor site. The MTCs are harvested from the tissue donor site. It is possible to supply a harvesting or "coring" equipment that consists of one or more hollow needles for harvesting purpose.
Figure 1A presents a side perspective view of an example of a hollow harvesting needle 100. This view is offered as an illustration. It is possible to set the inner diameter of the needle 100 so that it roughly corresponds to a certain diameter of a tissue sample or MTC that to be taken from the donor site in accordance with the instructions provided in this document. For instance, the tube can be formed with 18-, 19-, or 20-gauge biopsy needles (for instance, with an inner diameter of 0.838 mm, 0.686 mm, and 0.564 mm, respectively), or other needles of a similar size. In general, cosmetic applications such as skin resurfacing can be performed using needles that have a gauge size that falls between 18 and 30, or the equivalent. The inner diameter of such a needle 100 (for example, the diameter of the central lumen) can be anywhere from approximately 1 millimeter to approximately 0.15 millimeters, although it is preferable to have it between approximately 0.5 millimeters and 0.15 millimeters. The utilization of such reduced inner diameters allows for the separation and removal of MTCs that have a width that is comparable from the tissue that surrounds them. There is a possibility that MTCs with such narrow widths will display optimal viability. This is due to the fact that nutrients can be transferred more easily and directly to a greater number of cells within the MTC from the surrounding environment. If bigger or smaller MTCs are required, for example, a hollow needle or tube 100 with a slightly larger or smaller inner diameter can also be utilized in other embodiments. This is because the inner diameter of the needle or tube 100 can be slightly larger or smaller respectively. For instance, bigger diameters might be utilized in order to collect samples from organs or tissues other than skin, which might be more resistant to harm and/or for whom the presence of apparent scarring would not be an issue.
A distal end that can be made as a plurality of piercing arrangements (for example, comprising points) 105 is included in the harvesting needle 100 that is depicted in Figure 1A. FIG. 1B depicts a distal end of the needle 100 from a side view when seen from the side. For instance, the two typical points 105 that are depicted in Figure 1A can be created by grinding flat bevels on opposing sides of the needle 100 at an angle α in relation to the needle's long axis, as demonstrated in Figure 1B. For example, the angle α can range from about 10 degrees to approximately 25 degrees, or it can be between approximately 10 degrees and 20 degrees. When the needle 100 is advanced, such narrow tip angles can make it easier for the needle 100 to penetrate tissue and separate the tissue that is contained within the lumen of the needle 100 from the tissue that is adjacent to it within the needle 100. The distal end of the harvesting needle is included in additional examples of exemplary embodiments. There are three or more points 105 that can be used to provide the value 100. For example, this can be accomplished by constructing three or more angled flat bevels at different orientations and, if desired, at different angles.
The implementation of safe user authentication is made possible by User Authentication and Profiles, which enables consumers and farmers to register for accounts as well. Customers are able to keep track of their orders and preferences, and farmers are able to display their produce thanks to the creation of user profiles that these profiles require. Product Management offers a module that enables farmers to manage, add, and amend their product listings using the product management system. Pricing, availability status, descriptions, and photographs are some of the features that can be included with its help. Customers are able to browse the merchandise, add things to their shopping carts, and submit orders through the functionality provided by the Order and Transaction Processing module. In addition to this, it offers a framework for handling orders, which assists farmers in keeping track of and managing orders that are coming in. A feedback method that enables customers to rank and assess farmers and products is established through the use of ratings and feedback and ratings. The term "responsive design" refers to the process of ensuring that a design is responsive, which means that it can adapt to varied screen sizes on mobile devices, tablets, and personal computers. Customers have the ability to filter items according to categories, types of farms, or sustainability measures through the use of filtering.
