Abstract: Breathable residual-limb system that admits air and allows sweat to evaporate from the surface of the residual limb. In an embodiment, the system comprises a liner sock to be worn on the residual limb, and comprising air-permeable textile forming a substantially cylindrical portion that is closed on a distal end and open on a proximal end and comprising an internal surface and an external surface. The liner sock further comprises a friction-interface material that covers only a portion of the internal surface of the air-permeable textile, such that, when worn on the residual limb, the friction-interface material contacts a surface of the residual limb, and an uncovered portion of the air-permeable textile which the friction-interface material does not cover allows air to pass between an external environment of the liner sock and the surface of the residual limb.

Abstract: In one aspect, at least one device includes at least one processor and storage accessible to the at least one processor. The storage includes instructions executable by the at least one processor to execute a first application (app) at the first device, where the first app is configured for converting actions in three dimensional (3D) space into actions in two dimensional (2D) space. The instructions are also executable to identify a first 3D action transpiring in 3D space, use the first app to convert the first 3D action into a first 2D action, and provide the first 2D action to a second app executing at the first device. The second app is different from the first app.

Abstract: A capsule containing a substance for the preparation of a potable beverage. The capsule comprises an aluminum capsule body having a side wall and an outwardly extending flange and a sealing member at the outwardly extending flange for providing a fluid sealing contact with an enclosing member of a beverage preparation device.
