Abstract: A handheld vacuum cleaner includes a pistol grip which is positioned generally transverse to a longitudinal axis of the vacuum cleaner that runs from a front end to a rear end thereof. It also includes an air inlet positioned forward of the pistol grip, and a vacuum motor configured to draw dirty air into a dirt separator of the vacuum cleaner through the air inlet and exhaust clean air from the vacuum cleaner through an air outlet. The handheld vacuum cleaner further includes an electronic visual display which faces generally rearwards. The handheld vacuum cleaner may be part of a stick vacuum cleaner.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed herein for providing improved cache structures and methods that are optimally sized to support a predetermined range of late stage adjustments and in which image data is intelligently read out of DRAM and cached in such a way as to eliminate re-fetching of input image data from DRAM and minimize DRAM bandwidth and power. The systems and methods can also be adapted to work with compressed image data and multiple LSR processing engines.

Abstract: An educational evidence and evaluation system for generating media files and context parameters and linking the media files and context parameters to education profiles during evaluation of a subject is disclosed. An example educational evidence and evaluation system comprises a capture engine that captures two media files, a context engine that tags the media files with context parameters, and a linking engine that links the media files and their tagged context parameters to an education profiles of a subject, wherein the evaluation engine links a first media file and its first context parameter to the education profile of a first subject before the capture engine captures a second media file.

Abstract: The present invention relates to carboxylic acid aromatic 1,2-cyclopropylamides of general formula (I) as described and defined herein, to pharmaceutical compositions and combinations comprising said compounds and to the use of said compounds for manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment or prophylaxis of a disease, in particular of neurogenic disorder, as a sole agent or in combination with other active ingredients.

Abstract: The present invention relates to tetrazolyl-containing cyclopropanecarboxamides compounds of general formula (I) as described and defined herein, to pharmaceutical compositions and combinations comprising said compounds and to the use of said compounds for manufacturing a pharmaceutical composition for the treatment or prophylaxis of a disease, in particular of neurogenic disorder, as a sole agent or in combination with other active ingredients.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and apparatus are provided for predicting/estimating (i) a non-equilibrium viscosity for at least one given time point in a given temperature profile for a given glass composition, (ii) at least one temperature profile that will provide a given non-equilibrium viscosity for a given glass composition, or (iii) at least one glass composition that will provide a given non-equilibrium viscosity for a given time point in a given temperature profile. The methods and apparatus can be used to predict/estimate stress relaxation in a glass article during forming as well as compaction, stress relaxation, and/or thermal sag or thermal creep of a glass article when the article is subjected to one or more post-forming thermal treatments.

Abstract: Compounds, compositions, articles, devices, and methods for the manufacture of light guide plates and back light units including such light guide plates made from glass. In some embodiments, light guide plates (LGPs) are provided that have similar or superior optical properties to light guide plates made from PMMA and that have exceptional mechanical properties such as rigidity, CTE and dimensional stability in high moisture conditions as compared to PMMA light guide plates.

Abstract: A device may provide a login process to authenticate users prior to admittance to a computing environment. The device may also enable users to adjust various the computing environment, e.g., the language selected for communicating with the user and the user interfaces to be presented to the user, and may store such adjustments in a secured user account. However, if the user account is inaccessible to the device during the login process, the device is unable to adapt the login process to apply the user's adjustments. Instead, the device may be configured to store users' adjustments (including language selection) outside of the user accounts, and to, upon identifying the user during the login process, present login interfaces specified in the user account. Additionally, users may select different login interfaces during login, and the device may retrieve these login interfaces for selection during future login processes for the same user.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a novel compound having a strong opening action with respect to KCNQ2-5 channels. A compound represented by the general formula (1) (wherein the definition of each group is as described in the specification) is provided. The compound represented by the general formula (1) has a strong opening action with respect to KCNQ2-5 channels, and therefore is useful as a prophylactic and/or therapeutic agent for a KCNQ2-5 channel-related disease (for example, dysuria, overactive bladder, or the like).

Abstract: A system provides camera position and point cloud estimation 3D reconstruction. The system receives images and attempts existing structure integration to integrate the images into an existing reconstruction under a sequential image reception assumption. If existing structure integration fails, the system attempts dictionary overlap detection by accessing a dictionary database and searching to find a closest matching frame in the existing reconstruction. If overlaps are found, the system matches the images with the overlaps to determine a highest probability frame from the overlaps, and attempts existing structure integration again. If overlaps are not found or existing structure integration fails again, the system attempts bootstrapping based on the images. If any of existing structure integration, dictionary overlap detection, or bootstrapping succeeds, and if multiple disparate tracks have come to exist, the system attempts reconstructed track merging.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are backlight units comprising a light guide plate (210), a light coupling unit (220) in contact with the light guide plate, and a light source (230) optically coupled to the first and second light incident edge surfaces. The backlight units may also comprise light recycling cavities by forming a reflector (240) on the edge surface (224) of the coupling unit opposing the incidence surface (221). Electronic, display, and lighting devices comprising such BLUs are further disclosed herein.

Abstract: In general, embodiments of the invention relate to configuring network elements to prevent the formation of logical loops in a network. More specifically, embodiments of the invention provide a mechanism to associate a port policy with all or a portion of the ports of a network element and to enforce certain types of behavior.

Abstract: Various embodiments are described herein that provide a network system comprising a set of peers within a link aggregation group (LAG), the first set of peers including a first network element and a second network element and a status resolution server to connect to the set of peers within the link aggregation group, wherein one or more peers within the LAG is to query the status resolution server to determine an operational status of a peer in the set of peers in response to detection of an apparent failure of the peer.
