Abstract: In certain embodiments, a headrest-integrated entertainment system for a vehicle seat is provided. The headrest system comprises a head support unit adapted to be coupled to the seat of a vehicle; a base member adapted to be securely coupled to the head support unit; a cover panel member configured to enclosingly couple the base member to define a device compartment there-between, and a multimedia system including a display device observably retained in the device compartment. The base member and the cover panel member are securely coupled to each other through a plurality of integrally formed buckle units respectively distributed thereon. In certain embodiments, the cover panel member comprises a rearward facing panel that defines a viewing window for the display device, and a side panel that integrally extends from a lateral flank thereof. The rearward facing panel traverses substantially across a width of the head support unit.

Abstract: A headrest system and a method of providing the same is disclosed. The headrest system comprises a head support unit adaptable onto a vehicle seat, a fabric member configured to envelope at least a portion of the head support unit, and a plurality of anchor members configured to retain the fabric member in a substantially staple-free fashion. The head support unit includes a pillow portion defining a head supporting surface. The fabric member includes a central portion configured to cover the head supporting surface, and a fringe portion integrally connected around the central portion. The anchor members are arranged at locations opposite to the head supporting surface, and are configured to engage selective parts of the fringe portion, so as to as to stretch the central portion substantially conformally over the head support surface of the pillow portion and substantially retain the fabric member on the head support unit.

Abstract: Wireless speaker systems and methods for synchronous audio playback. Speaker systems can comprise more than one wireless speaker assembly, such as wireless earphones, in serial communication with an audio source device, such as a smartphone. Separate audio rendering by each wireless speaker assembly and synchronization of audio playback by imposing a fixed latency from an output timestamp associated with the audio source data, and rate matching the sample allow for tightly synchronized playback of stereo audio at low latency.

Abstract: A social welfare services management method, apparatus, and computer readable medium is provided. The method includes inputting data about entities, linking the entities based on relationship between the entities; and performing a government defined unit of work based on said linking. The government defined unit of work relates to the social welfare services. As a result, a people centric approach to managing social welfare is provided.

Abstract: Disclosed is divider for an arm rest including two upright members with the top of the first upright member connected to a top of the second upright member at an acute angle, a bottom of the first upright member, the bottom of the first upright member spaced apart from a bottom of the second upright member, a first horizontal member, the first horizontal member hingedly connected to the bottom of the first upright member; and a second horizontal member, the second horizontal member hingedly connected to the bottom of the second upright member.

Abstract: A portable armrest divider is disclosed that is mounted on a vehicle armrest and expands the surface area of the original armrest, while providing a vertical separation barrier between the two individuals seated on either side of the armrest. The armrest is portable, in that it folds in half for easy travel.

Abstract: The present invention extends to methods, systems, and computer program products for establishing connections among electronic devices. Embodiments of the invention can use a context code, such as, for example, a QR code to facilitate electronic device networking. The connection process between electronic devices is automated. For example, upon snapping a picture, a communication application establishes connection between devices and also serves as a port between the connected devices. Networking code can be greatly simplified, permitting application developers to devote more resources to developing application code.

Abstract: A method of provisioning resources, which includes hosting at least one resource at a first site. A secure connection is established between the first site and a second site, and a listing of available resources is exported to the second site. The second site publishes the listing of available resources to at least one client and at least one resource from the first site to second site is provisioned by providing the at least one client with an IP address of the at least one resource.

Abstract: A method of application level content routing using a (Dynamic VPN) dual-proxy mechanism that provides a client access to resources on a remote network without exposing each other's actual IP addresses and network topologies. The method includes providing a client a list of available resources on a remote network; initiating a request by the client for at least one resource from the list of available resources hosted on the remote network as though the at least one resource is local to the client; routing the request to the at least remote resource through a secure connection between the client and the remote network; responding to the request by the at least remote resource as though the request is initiated locally on the remote network; and routing the response from the remote network back to the client through the secure connection.

Abstract: A memory device comprising a main body, a first connect head, a transmission wire and a second connect head is provided. A memory is disposed inside the main body for storing digital data. The first connect head is disposed at one end of the main body and electrically connected to the memory. The transmission wire has a first end and a second end. The first end is electrically connected to the memory via the other end of the main body, while the second end is electrically connected to the second connect head. The second connect head can be attached to or detached from the first connect head to form a necklace-like shape that may be worn or easily carried.
