Abstract: A work machine includes a work implement. A control system for the work machine includes a controller configured to operate the work implement according to a target trajectory for a backward movement while the work machine is moving backward. A method is performed by a processor for controlling a work machine including a work implement. The method includes operating the work implement according to a target trajectory for a backward movement while the work machine is moving backward.

Abstract: A head immobilization system for immobilizing a patient's head in a supine position of the patient includes a support rail structure adapted to be coupled to a patient rest. The system can further include a mask frame adapted to be coupled to at least one deformable upper mask sheet. The mask frame is releasably connected to the support rail structure via a first interface section and a second interface section, with at least two pins protruding from the first interface section in a first direction, and at least two pin-receptions provided at the second interface section. Each one of the pin-receptions receives one of the pins. A catch-mechanism for each pin-reception and each corresponding pin allows the pin to be pushed further into the pin-reception in the first direction, but interlocks in case of an attempted withdrawal of the pin from the pin-reception in a second, opposite direction.

Abstract: A display device according to an aspect of the disclosure includes a pixel circuits, a scanning signal line, a data signal line, a first power supply voltage line, a second power supply voltage line, a scanning signal line drive circuit, a data signal line drive circuit, and a display control unit. The display control unit compares data values written in pixels in an n-th row corresponding to the selected scanning signal line with data values written in pixels in an (n?1)-th row which is one row prior to the n-th row of the selected scanning signal line, and corrects the data voltage corresponding to the pixels in the n-th row in a case where a difference between the data values is equal to or greater than a threshold value.

Abstract: A method for safely ascertaining infrastructure data for driving a motor vehicle in at least partially automated fashion. The method includes receiving data signals, which represent infrastructure sensor data generated by at least one infrastructure sensor and/or motor vehicle data generated by at least one source motor vehicle, receiving safety condition signals, which represent at least one safety condition for safely ascertaining infrastructure data based on the data, checking whether the at least one safety condition is fulfilled, ascertaining infrastructure data, on the basis of which it is possible to drive a destination motor vehicle in at least partially automated fashion, based on the data as a function of a result of the check as to whether the at least one safety condition is fulfilled, generating infrastructure data signals, which represent the ascertained infrastructure data, outputting the generated infrastructure data signals.

Abstract: Provided is an electronic pen including an electronic pen main part including a first sealing member that covers circumference of a tip side of the electronic pen main part and a second sealing member disposed along an outer edge of the electronic pen main part at a position separate from a tip toward a rear end side of the electronic pen main part, and an inside body that is tubular and has an inner wall surface with which the first sealing member and the second sealing member come into contact through insertion of the tip side of the electronic pen main part into the inside body.

Abstract: A consumer electronic product includes at least a transparent housing and a flexible display assembly enclosed within the transparent housing. In the described embodiment, the flexible display assembly is configured to present visual content at any portion of the transparent housing.

Abstract: An automatically moving floor treatment appliance has an appliance housing, a drive, a detector for detecting surrounding area features, and a computer that transmits control commands to the drive, based on the surrounding area features detected by the detector. The detector has a plurality of inner and outer fall sensors arranged on an underside of the appliance housing, which detect a distance of the floor treatment appliance from the surface. The computer controls the drive to change a movement of the floor treatment appliance when the distance detected by the fall sensor is greater than a threshold value defining a slope. The fall sensors are interconnected in an evaluation circuit of the detection means so that the detection signals of the totality of inner fall sensors can be evaluated independently of the detection signals of the totality of outer fall sensors.

Abstract: Provided is a 10-20 system-based position information providing method performed by a computer. The method comprises the steps of: obtaining a head image of a subject; receiving, from a user, an input of at least four reference points on the basis of the head image; calculating central coordinates in the head image on the basis of the at least four reference points; and providing 10-20 system-based position information on the basis of the central coordinates.

Abstract: A lighting attachment for a flagpole includes at least one reflector that directs light from a light source to illuminate front and rear faces of the flag. In one embodiment, the reflector has at least one concavely dished parabolic surface. In another embodiment, the reflector is held in a sleeve that rotates about the flagpole in response to flag movement. In still another embodiment, a swivel connector is fastened to the top of the flagpole and a lower lighting unit to illuminate a flag is rotatably engaged around the flagpole. In yet another embodiment, a rotatable flag bracket is held in an outer groove of a sleeve of the finial attachment, and a finial globe is illuminated by a light source. The housing for the lighting attachment and/or the finial attachment may include at least one power source, such as solar panels and associated energy accumulators (e.g., batteries).

Abstract: A brace and kit of braces with a method of use. The multi-digit brace includes first and second arcuate members coupled together by top and bottom bridge members. There are raised rails disposed about the circumference of the brace that form a band track within which an elastic band may be disposed to secure the brace to the fingers/toes of a hand/foot. The arcuate members are thinner near the bottom to allow for greater flex/bend of adjacent joints. The arcuate members are spaced from each other and form an hourglass shaped void therebetween. The arcuate members may form complete circles or may have gaps. The kit may include a plurality of braces and a plurality of bands/wraps/straps. The method includes installing a plurality of braces so that they face back-to-back towards a middle joint with thinner regions of each brace near the palmar side of the middle joint.

Abstract: An apparatus for separating particles, such as drill cuttings, from a flowable substance, such as drilling mud, is provided. The apparatus comprises an inlet for entry of particles combined with the flowable substance; an outlet for exit of particles separated from the flowable substance; a movable screen located between the inlet and the outlet; and a wash unit for delivering a wash agent to the particles. The screen allows for passage of the flowable substance therethrough, and defines a path for passage of the particles between the inlet and the outlet. Delivery of the wash agent to the particles assists with separation of the particles from the flowable substance. Associated systems and methods are also provided.
