A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US12002109B1) discloses an apparatus and method for generating operating feature vectors based on scanning digital streams associated with various operating devices within a physical structure. These feature vectors represent device signatures and are compared to stored feature vectors from an operating device inventory. If discrepancies are found, the system prepares an electronic insurance claim for the affected devices. The digital streams used for analysis include transient voltage noise, line-synchronous voltage noise, high-frequency voltage noise, pressure waves in plumbing infrastructure, and acoustic responses of gas regulators. The method involves sampling analog signals received from the devices to generate these digital samples.

Furthermore, the patent details the classification of inventoried operating devices and lists various examples of such devices, including appliances, fixtures, light bulbs, fans, HVAC systems, stoves, dryers, televisions, computers, and mobile devices. The system aims to streamline the insurance claim process by automatically detecting discrepancies between operating and stored device signatures, ensuring accurate and efficient claim preparation. This technology could potentially revolutionize the insurance industry by leveraging digital data analysis to enhance the assessment and management of insurance claims related to operating devices within physical structures.
