Abstract: Described are systems and methods directed to generation of a dimensionally accurate three-dimensional (“3D”) model of a body, such as a human body, based on two-dimensional (“2D”) images of at least a portion of that body. A user may use a 2D camera, such as a digital camera typically included in many of today's portable devices (e.g., cell phones, tablets, laptops, etc.) and obtain a series of 2D body images of at least a portion of their body from different views with respect to the camera. The 2D body images may then be used to generate a plurality of predicted body parameters corresponding to the body represented in the 2D body images. Those predicted body parameters may then be further processed to generate a dimensionally accurate 3D model or avatar of the body of the user.

Abstract: Systems and methods for folder synchronization and offline synchronization via a mobile platform in a web-based collaboration environment are disclosed. One embodiment includes synchronizing user selected folders and/or sub-folders via the mobile platform, using portable devices including smart phones and tablets using any mobile operating system to allow offline access. Child or sub-folders of the selected folders and/or sub-folders are automatically detected and synchronized for offline access. Any change or new content detected on the client side or on the server side is also synchronized such that the selected folders and/or sub-folders on the client and server sides are up to date.

Abstract: Interfaces between higher voltage and lower voltage wafers and related apparatuses and methods are disclosed. An apparatus includes a memory wafer and a logic wafer. Data storage elements of an array are configured to perform an operation responsive to an operational voltage potential. The memory wafer also includes bitlines electrically connected to the data storage elements and isolation devices electrically connected to the bitlines. The logic wafer is bonded to the memory wafer. The logic wafer includes logic circuitry electrically connected to the bitlines through the isolation devices. A maximum voltage potential difference tolerance of the logic circuitry is less than an operational voltage potential difference between the operational voltage potential and a reference voltage potential of the logic circuitry.

Abstract: A memory device includes a first string driver circuit and a second string driver circuit that are disposed laterally adjacent to each other in a length direction of a memory subsystem. The first and the second string driver circuits are disposed in an interleaved layout configuration such that the first connections of the first string driver are offset from the second connections of the second string driver in a width direction. For a same effective distance between the corresponding opposing first and second connections, a first pitch length corresponding to the interleaved layout configuration of the first and second string drivers is less by a predetermined reduction amount than a second pitch length between the first and second string drivers when disposed in a non-interleaved layout configuration in which each of the first connections is in-line with the corresponding second connection.

Abstract: A man over board rescue system 100 may comprise a main body 200 with the main body quickly and easily being attached and detached to a ship's bitt. Thus, the system may be quickly set up prior to departing and quickly put away at the end of a voyage. The system allows for the fast and efficient rescue of a person overboard without need for a rescuer to enter the water or to risk bodily injury in retrieving a person in the water. The system provides secure mechanical means allowing for a winch to be used in the support of a person which is a significant departure from the prior art.

Abstract: Described are systems and methods directed to generation of a personalized three-dimensional (“3D”) body model of a body, such as a human body, based on two-dimensional (“2D”) images of that body and the generation and presentation of predicted personalized 3D body models of the body when one or more body measurements (e.g., body fat, body weight, muscle mass) are changed. For example, a user may provide a target body measurement value and the implementations will generate one or more predicted personalized 3D body models representative of a predicted appearance of the body with the target body measurement value.
