  • Publication number: 20240280496
    Abstract: A reagent reaction determination method and device applied to a test tube, a computer-readable storage medium and a test tube, wherein, the reagent reaction determination method comprises: outputting a brightness control signal to the light-incident component to control the light-incident component to emit the RGB light, and to adjust the brightness control signal according to a preset step length, so as to adjust the brightness of the RGB light; detecting brightness variations of the light derived by the light-emergent component to generate an electrical signal detection value; perform an interpolation calculation on the present brightness control signal to obtain an estimated value of the brightness control signal when the electrical signal detection value is less than a preset threshold, and determining a reaction result in the reagent reaction chamber according to the estimated value of the brightness control signal. The reagent reaction determination device can greatly improve the user experience.

  • Patent number: 11412306
    Abstract: iTV content is created and deployed using a server component adapted to allow content developers to create applications according to an authoring specification that describes a framework for same; a transport component configured to optimize and deliver the applications to one or more clients; and a client component adapted to render the applications through a television so as to permit user interaction therewith. The authoring specification provides for the presentation of content through one or more templates defined therein, allowing application definition and behavior to remain common across multiple client device types, middleware platforms, and/or iTV operating environments.

  • Patent number: 11388451
    Abstract: A database is packed up for broadcast over an iTV system by packaging, compressing, and streaming the database via one or more carousels. The packing up process creates one or more data modules, each including record sets, and one or more modules containing computer-readable instructions for resolving queries using the record sets. These modules, along with a table of contents module that includes descriptions of how the data modules are composed and interfaces to the modules containing the computer-readable instructions, are downloaded at a set top box in order to resolve queries from television users and/or other applications. Thereafter, the computer-readable instructions are executed to resolve the queries. When available, the results produced by executing the query may be displayed on a television. Information regarding the queries may be used to modify the packing up and/or broadcast processes.

  • Patent number: 10587930
    Abstract: An iTV user interface includes a navigable menu area through which a user can select from among a variety of services and a content display area in which formatted data associated with a selected menu service are displayed to the user. The formatted data is displayed in a rotating or ticker fashion having both a passive mode, in which the formatted data is displayed in a sequence independent of any selection operations by a television viewer, and active mode, in which the formatted data is displayed in a sequence that depends on selection operations by the television viewer. Advertisements and/or promotions may be interspersed among the content items. The navigable menu area and the content display area may be displayed to the viewer at the same time as television programming is displayed on the television.
