Abstract: Methods, systems and apparatuses may provide for technology that generates, with a first graphics processing unit, geometric attributes associated with a first primitive. The technology determines that the first primitive is associated with a second graphics processing unit based on a first screen space tile associated with the first primitive, and transfers the geometric attributes of the first primitive from the first graphics processing unit to the second graphics processing unit based on the first primitive being associated with the first screen space tile.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for a media guidance application that enhances the viewing experiences of users consuming a sequence of media. In particular, the media guidance application may enhance the viewing experiences of users consuming a sequence of media by removing portions of redundant media that were previously consumed by the user.

Abstract: A control handle for use with a suture device operable through an endoscope includes a grip attachment configured to be secured to an endoscope and a control housing operably secured to the grip attachment. A catheter housing is moveably disposed within the control housing and adapted to releasably secure the suture catheter such that translation of the catheter housing causes translation of the suture catheter. A lever is rotatably securable relative to the catheter housing such that rotation of the lever relative to the catheter housing causes the catheter housing to move relative to the control housing. A sliding tab is disposed relative to the lever such that movement of the sliding tab relative to the lever causes the suture catheter to translate relative to the control wire disposed within the suture catheter.

Abstract: An endoscopic handle attachment is adapted to be secured to an endoscope having a working channel and used in combination with a suture device adapted to extend through the working channel. The attachment includes a backbone adapted to conform to an outer surface of the endoscope and that includes one or more attachment features adapted to enable releasable securement to the endoscope. A primary arm extends radially outwardly from the backbone and includes one or attachment points, at least one of the one or more attachment points adapted to releasably secure a proximal handle of the suture device such that a translation handle may be moved relative to the proximal handle without an operator needing to separately hold the proximal handle.

Abstract: In some examples, an exercise band comprising includes a main stretchable tubing defining a first lumen, a main safety cord disposed within the first lumen of the stretchable tubing, a Y-shaped cord coupled to the main safety cord at one end within the first lumen of the main stretchable tubing, at least one lasso tubing defining a second lumen, and at least one lasso safety cord disposed within the at least one lasso tubing, the at least one lasso safety cord being coupled to two ends of the Y-shaped cord within the second lumen.

Abstract: Methods, systems, apparatus, and computer-readable media (transitory or non-transitory) are described herein for scaling and rendering a virtual hand. According to an example, vision data may be received from a three-dimensional (“3D”) vision sensor. The vision data may capture at least a portion of a user in an environment, and may include data representing the user's hand relative to a touch interaction surface. The vision data may be processed to generate a 3D representation of the user's hand. A scaling center may be identified on the touch interaction surface to scale the 3D representation of the user's hand. The 3D representation of the user's hand may be scaled with respect to the identified scaling center using a scaling factor. The scaling factor may be based on a rendering constraint. A virtual hand may be rendered, e.g., on a display, based on the scaled 3D representation of the user's hand.

Abstract: A method, an apparatus and a machine-readable medium are disclosed. The method relates to operating a user interface.

Abstract: An automated rig apparatus for drilling or servicing a well is provided. The apparatus can include a motor vehicle having a frame, and a hinged derrick mast pivotally attached to the frame. The apparatus can further include a rack disposed in the mast and a carriage assembly with pinion motors configured to travel up and down the rack when the mast is raised to a vertical position. A tool carrier configured to receive a top drive unit or a power swivel unit can be attached to the carriage assembly. The apparatus can further include a movable platform and an operators cab configured to be moved to a desired position relative to the derrick mast when the mast is raised to a vertical position. The apparatus can further include a hydraulic drive assembly to operate the apparatus, and a mud pump and manifold for pumping drilling mud.

Abstract: In example implementations, a method is provided. The method may be executed by a processor. The method includes receiving a reflected image of a mirrored display. At least one optimal display region is identified in the mirrored display around a main subject in the reflected image based on additional reflected subjects in the reflected image. A content is analyzed to determine an arrangement of the content in the at least one optimal display region. The content that is displayed is arranged in the at least one optimal display region.

Abstract: In an example, an augmented reality display system includes a reflective surface, a depth scanner and processing apparatus comprising an image processor and an image generation engine. The depth scanner may be to scan the reflective surface and a subject via the reflective surface to acquire depth data. The image processor may be to determine, based on the depth data, a viewpoint for an augmentation of a reflected image. The image generation engine may be to generate the augmentation for display on the reflective surface.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to authentication invirtual reality systems. For example, a device comprising a generator engine can generate a stimulus, and display the stimulus to the user in a virtual environment. The device can receive an input from the user in response to the stimulus, via a receiver engine, and authenticate the user based on the input received via an authentication engine. Additionally, the device can obfuscate the received input from the user by preventing the input from being displayed in the virtual environment via an obfuscation engine.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media for summarizing a call. One of the methods includes generating text corresponding to processing audio produced during an interaction between two participants by executing natural language processing logic. The method includes identifying one or more topics by providing the generated text to a machine learning system, the machine learning system trained to identify topics based on text. The method also includes generating a summary of the interaction based on the one or more topics and the text.
