Abstract: A self-propelled device determines an orientation for its movement based on a pre-determined reference frame. A controller device is operable by a user to control the self-propelled device. The controller device includes a user interface for controlling at least a direction of movement of the self-propelled device. The self-propelled device is configured to signal the controller device information that indicates the orientation of the self-propelled device. The controller device is configured to orient the user interface, based on the information signaled from the self-propelled device, to reflect the orientation of the self-propelled device.

Abstract: A self-propelled device can determine an initial reference frame of the self-propelled device in three-dimensional space, receive control inputs from a controller device, where the control inputs can be inputted by a user on a steering mechanism of the controller device. The self-propelled device can interpret the control inputs as control commands to maneuver the self-propelled device, and implement the control commands on an internal drive system of the self-propelled device to maneuver the self-propelled device based on the control inputs. While maneuvering, the self-propelled device can determine an orientation of the internal drive system within a spherical housing of the self-propelled device in relation to the initial reference frame, and transmit feedback to the controller device based on the orientation of the internal drive system in order to calibrate an orientation of the steering mechanism with the orientation of the internal drive system.

Abstract: Computer-implemented methods and automated systems for real-time detection of spreading depolarizations in a brain injured patient, based an algorithm of (a) providing a reference data base of spreading depolarization waveform templates generated from EEG recordings of confirmed spreading depolarizations (SD) in a reference brain-injured patient cohort; (b) recording an EEG of the brain injured patient to generate recorded EEG waveforms; (c) detecting a slow potential change present in a recorded EEG waveform by applying a power spectral density estimate to the recorded waveform; (d) comparing a detected SPC to a reference database of SD waveform template to identify a candidate SD; and (e) rejecting a candidate SD as a false positive based on overall signal power and amplitude analysis and identifying a non-rejected candidate SD as a detected SD.

Abstract: A self-propelled device includes a drive system, a wireless communication port, a memory and a processor. The memory stores a first set of instructions for mapping individual inputs from a first set of recognizable inputs to a corresponding command that controls movement of the self-propelled device. The processor (or processors) receive one or more inputs from the controller device over the wireless communication port, map each of the one or more inputs to a command based on the set of instructions, and control the drive system using the command determined for each of the one or more inputs. While the drive system is controlled, the processor processes one or more instructions to after the set of recognizable inputs and/or the corresponding command that is mapped to the individual inputs in the set of recognizable inputs.

Abstract: A self-propelled device is disclosed that includes a center of mass drive system. The self-propelled device includes a substantially cylindrical body and wheels, with each wheel having a diameter substantially equivalent to the body. The self-propelled device may further include an internal drive system with a center of mass below a rotational axis of the wheels. Operation and maneuvering of the self-propelled device may be performed via active displacement of the center of mass.

Abstract: A self-propelled device is provided including a drive system, a spherical housing, and a biasing mechanism. The drive system includes one or more motors that are contained within the spherical housing. The biasing mechanism actively forces the drive system to continuously engage an interior of the spherical housing in order to cause the spherical housing to move.

Abstract: Non-invasive electroencephalogram (EEG)-based methods for detecting a spreading depolarization secondary to a brain injury in a patient who exhibits high-amplitude delta activity in at least one channel of a scalp EEG of an injured brain hemisphere of the patient include (a) recording a baseline scalp EEG pattern in the patient at a channel exhibiting high amplitude delta activity; (b) recording a continuous scalp EEG pattern in the patient across a time frame at the at least one channel; and (c) detecting a spreading depolarization during the time frame by observing at least one feature indicative of a spreading depolarization in the continuous scalp EEG recording pattern relative to the baseline scalp EEG pattern at the at least one channel. Scalp EEG recordings are time-compressed prior to analysis. Methods of treating brain-injured patients and triaging brain-injured patients apply the non-invasive EEG methods.

The computing device can display a plurality of augmented reality elements selectable to augment the self-propelled device and receive a user selection of one of the plurality of augmented reality elements to augment the self-propelled device. The computing device may then augment the self-propelled device in the video content by superimposing the selected augmented reality element over the self-propelled device as the self-propelled device moves.
