Abstract: An augmented reality, virtual reality, or other wearable apparatus comprises an eye tracking device comprising an image sensor, a lens, and one or more processors. In some embodiments, the lens comprises a marker, and the one or more processors are configured to receive an image from the image sensor, wherein the image shows the marker, determine a distance from the image sensor to the marker based on the image, and change a calibration parameter of an eye tracking algorithm based on the distance. In some embodiments, the one or more processors are configured to receive image data from the image sensor, wherein the image data corresponds to an image as observed through the lens, determine a level or pattern of pincushion distortion in the image based on the image data, and change a calibration parameter of an eye tracking algorithm based on the level or the pattern of pincushion distortion.

Abstract: The present invention is a process of manufacture of one or more polysaccharide beads, comprising generating an aerosol of an aqueous polysaccharide solution, cooling the droplets of said aerosol in air to initiate gelling thereof and collecting droplets as gelled beads in a liquid or on a surface, characterised by adding a hydrophilic vapour pressure-lowering agent to said polysaccharide solution.

Abstract: Method and device for continuously producing a coherent layer of a liquid/melt of even thickness by means of centrifugal action along the entire periphery of a rotating disk (13, 113), liquid/melt being supplied to the disk around its entire axis of rotation from means (12, 112) and leaving the disk as individual droplets. The means (12, 112) distributing the liquid/melt onto the disk (13, 113) has according to the invention essentially the same speed and direction of rotation as the disk, and the liquid/melt undergoes under the influence of centrifugal action circumferentially a spreading and change in velocity across the disk (13, 113) in contact with the same.

Abstract: The invention refers to a method of controlling the porosity of porous spherical particles produced from a polysaccharide dissolved in a solvent, in which it can be gelled. The polysaccharide solution is finely divided by mechanical means into spherical droplets which are allowed to pass through a humid atmosphere and transferred to a capturing medium while controlling the temperature and humidity of humid atmosphere.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for dividing a liquid into droplets is disclosed. One or several disks (35) rotate about an axis (A) and are provided, at their outer peripheral edges, with circumferentially equidistant, uniform cusps. A distributing device (20) is adapted to distribute the liquid uniformly and circumferentially on the disks (35), whereby the liquid discharged onto the disks (35) is formed into a uniform thickness film which spreads radially outwardly towards the cusps (36) and is divided thereby into uniform size droplets. The distributing device (20) may comprise a dosing container (21) which is rotationally independent of the disks (30) and from which the liquid is dosed through one or several dosing openings (26) onto the disk or disks (35), the disks (35) preferably being rotated relative to the dosing openings (26).
