  • Patent number: 12076484
    Abstract: The hiccup relieving apparatus includes a body with a first end having a mouthpiece, a second end having a restriction in the body between the first end and the second end. The restriction makes it difficult to draw fluid through the body to the user's mouth. The fluid can be air or the body can be immersed in water or other potable liquid in a container. The restriction requires an adult user, using the mouthpiece, to produce a threshold suction of for example water before water can flow from the water in the water container, through the body, through the mouthpiece, and to the user.

  • Patent number: 12079557
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the present technology provide for the ultra-high density heterogenous integration, enabled by nano-precise pick-and-place assembly. For example, some embodiments provide for the integration of modular assembly techniques with the use of prefabricated blocks (PFBs). These PFBs can be created on one or more sources wafers. Then using pick-and-place technologies, the PFBs can be selectively arranged on a destination wafer thereby allowing Nanoscale-aligned 3D Stacked Integrated Circuit (N3-SI) and the Microscale Modular Assembled ASIC (M2A2) to be efficiently created. Some embodiments include systems and techniques for the construction of construct semiconductor devices which are arbitrarily larger than the standard photolithography field size of 26×33 mm, using pick-and-place assembly.

  • Publication number: 20240289626
    Abstract: Devices, systems and methods to detect stress using kinematic data are disclosed herein. In certain embodiments a spatial attention mechanism is used to describe the contribution of each kinematic feature to the classification of normal/stressed movements. Some embodiments comprise determining if the kinematic data from a user belong to a class of sub-movements associated with known signatures found to highly correlate with when the user is experiencing motor degradation due to high psychological stress versus a normal class of movements where the user is unaffected by stress.

  • Publication number: 20240288766
    Abstract: A method for lithography includes preparing an indium-based precursor solution. The precursor solution is not limited to indium and may include other metals such as, but not limited to, zinc, tin, aluminum, or gallium, in addition to indium. Additionally, the precursor solution may include a nitrate, an acetate, a chloride, an acetylacetonate, an iodide, and other organic or inorganic groups. The method further includes spin-coating the precursor solution on a substrate at a predetermined rate to form a resist film with a predetermined thickness. The method further includes exposing the resist film to one of a low-energy electron beam and an extreme ultraviolet (EUV) beam to produce one or more chemical changes on the resist film to form a pattern. The resist is negative tone with the exposed regions remaining on the substrate and unexposed regions being removed from the substrate by the developer.
