Abstract: Apparatus, system, and method for separating gas from a composite fluid. The apparatus includes a main body defining a flow path formed from a separations chamber at an upstream end of the flow path and a head space chamber at the downstream end of the flow path. The main body includes a first set of apertures disposed about the separations chamber and a second set of apertures disposed about the head space chamber. An agitator is housed within the main body at an upstream end of the separations chamber and is configured to generate a vortex that conveys the composite fluid through the flow path. The vortex expels a liquid fraction and a solids fraction of the composite fluid from the first set of apertures, and the vortex conveys a gaseous fraction of the composite fluid into the head space chamber for extraction from the second set of apertures.

Abstract: An electronic device according to an embodiment of the disclosure may include a housing, a camera module disposed in the housing, a sound output module disposed in the housing to be spaced apart from the camera module, a first sound hole positioned on the front surface of the electronic device, a second sound hole which is positioned on a side surface of the electronic device and includes a dummy hole disposed to be adjacent to the sound output module and at least partially closed, and a connection hole spaced farther apart from the sound output module than the dummy hole, a sound outlet formed through the housing to allow sound generated in the sound output module to be output therethrough, and connected to the first sound hole and the second sound hole, and a sound guide part formed in the housing along a direction in which the first sound hole and the second sound hole extend, and configured to connect the sound outlet, the first sound hole, and the second sound hole.

Abstract: An electronic device includes a memory and a processor. The memory includes a data partition, a key storage partition, and a key backup partition. The processor operatively connected to the memory. The processor is configured to generate an encryption key with respect to at least one data folder generated in the data partition to store the encryption key in the key storage partition. The processor is also configured to store a backup encryption key equal to the encryption key, in the key backup partition. The processor is further configured to store an integrity file including a checksum of the encryption key in the key backup partition.

Abstract: A method of controlling a digital photographing apparatus is provided. The control method includes detecting a gesture of a user for the digital photographing apparatus using a plurality of video images sequentially generated according to live view photographing, changing an operation of the digital photographing apparatus to a zoom adjustment mode when the detected gesture of the user includes a preset first user gesture, and controlling a zooming state of the digital photographing apparatus step-by-step according to a moving path of a second user gesture after the first user gesture has ended, when the operation mode has been changed to the zoom adjustment mode.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are an image photographing device that includes a display unit displaying a preview image and a control method thereof. The image photographing device includes a judgment unit that judges whether or not lens blind has occurred and a photographing control unit that executes photographing after a predetermined time following an input of a photographing execution command has elapsed, if the judgment unit judges that lens blind has occurred. Even if a user shields a lens by his/her hand during a process of touching the screen of the display unit or pressing a photographing button to execute photographing, photographing is executed after the user's hand has moved out of the visual field of the lens, and thus an image desired by the user may be obtained without disturbance due to lens blind.

Abstract: A hand held electronic game having sensors requiring the user to perform functions similar to those required during the activity simulated by the game. In a hand held electronic bowling game, both finger-movement sensors and game-moving sensors require the user to grip and swing the game housing much like swinging a bowling ball while finger-receiving sensors measure movement in the fingers and game housing-movement sensors measure the forcefulness and speed of the user's swing with the ball. The sensors include printed circuit boards and the game-moving sensor can utilize a LED and a photodiode along with a periodically transparent extension, which moves between the LED and the photodiode to determine the force of the swing by centrifugal force.
