Abstract: A personalized health maintenance system, includes reading of an input-output data pair of each medical diagnosis test of a plurality of different medical diagnosis tests conducted for a first user; and cross-correlate a plurality of results of each medical diagnosis test of the plurality of different medical diagnosis tests to find a relationship among the plurality of different medical diagnosis tests for the first user. A coherent health state of the first user is determined based on the cross-correlation of the plurality of different medical diagnosis tests. The personalized health maintenance system includes a robotic system configured to output a first digital therapeutic environment around the first user. The first digital therapeutic environment is a human-sense stimulating mixed reality environment that induces a specific stimulus to the first user for remediation of at least one condition of the determined coherent health state of the first user.

Abstract: Implementations relate to dynamically, and in a context-sensitive manner, biasing voice to text conversion. In some implementations, the biasing of voice to text conversions is performed by a voice to text engine of a local agent, and the biasing is based at least in part on content provided to the local agent by a third-party (3P) agent that is in network communication with the local agent. In some of those implementations, the content includes contextual parameters that are provided by the 3P agent in combination with responsive content generated by the 3P agent during a dialog that: is between the 3P agent, and a user of a voice-enabled electronic device; and is facilitated by the local agent. The contextual parameters indicate potential feature(s) of further voice input that is to be provided in response to the responsive content generated by the 3P agent.

Abstract: There is disclosed a method for manufacturing a MOSFET with lateral channel in SiC, said MOSFET comprising simultaneously formed n type regions comprising an access region and a JFET region defining the length of the MOS channel, and wherein the access region and the JFET region are formed by ion implantation by using one masking step. The design is self-aligning so that the length of the MOS channel is defined by simultaneous creating n-type regions on both sides of the channel using one masking step. Any misalignment in the mask is moved to other less critical positions in the device. The risk of punch-through is decreased compared to the prior art. The current distribution becomes more homogenous. The short-circuit capability increases. There is lower Drain-Source specific on-resistance due to a reduced MOS channel resistance. There is a lower JFET resistance due to the possibility to increase the JFET region doping concentration.

Abstract: Apparatus and associated methods relate to a catheter manipulation handle with user interface controls for steering a catheter in situ while providing an augmented (e.g., motorized, powered and tunable precision steering, and perforation safeguards) control and feedback user experience. In an illustrative example, the catheter manipulation handle may provide motor assisted operation to automatically rotate and/or deflect a distal tip of the catheter to steer and guide the distal tip to a target location in the patient's vasculature system. The augmented feedback may include, for example, haptic feedback via the handle. Haptic, audible, and/or visual feedback via the handle may indicate, for example, proximity or engagement of the distal tip with sensitive tissue. In some examples, the handle's augmented operation may advantageously amplify feedback signals to enhance the user's perception of the patient's safety with respect to the safe passage of the distal tip through the patient's vasculature.

Abstract: An ultrasonic surgical handpiece has a motor having a torsional transducer assembly along a central axis of the surgical handpiece, the motor being configured for operative connection to a power source. A surgical attachment has a proximal end detachably connected to the motor and a distal end defining a working plane for engagement with biological tissue. The motor is configured to create a standing wave along the central axis in response to the application of an electrical current and voltage from the power source. The standing wave defines an alternating pattern of nodes and anti-nodes along the central axis, wherein a position of one of the anti-nodes along the center axis corresponds with the position of the working plane.

Abstract: An igniter apparatus which generates a high speed buoyancy induced vortex to funnel hydrogen and air from the surrounding onto the “igniter core” where an “igniter core” heats up to the auto ignition temperature by the exothermic catalytic oxidation of hydrogen on its surface. Water (vapor) is formed as the product, which inhibits the oxidation reaction, if not stripped away from the catalyst surface. The high velocity of the vortex ensures the stripping of the boundary layer of steam that is formed by the reaction, thus ensuring more active sites are available for hydrogen oxidation. The vortex is formed by channeling an upward draft into a vortex by guided fins. The upward draft is formed by a plate, which is also coated with a hydrogen recombination catalyst. The plate becomes hot by the same catalytic oxidation reaction in the presence of air containing hydrogen.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer readable media may be operable to facilitate client device band steering based upon deep packet inspection information. An access point may be configured to steer one or more client devices from a low frequency band to a high frequency band, and vice versa, based on the status of the low frequency band and/or high frequency band and the client devices associated with the bands. The access point may perform a deep packet inspection of data packet traffic associated with each associated client device, and may classify each client device as either a device associated with a media session or a device that is not associated with a media session based upon information retrieved from the deep packet inspection. The access point may choose one or more client devices to disassociate from a frequency band based upon the media session classification of the client devices.
