  • Patent number: 12138624
    Abstract: A hand-held molecular diagnostic test device includes a housing, an amplification (or PCR) module, and a detection module. The amplification module is configured to receive an input sample, and defines a reaction volume. The amplification module includes a heater such that the amplification module can perform a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) on the input sample. The detection module is configured to receive an output from the amplification module and a reagent formulated to produce a signal that indicates a presence of a target amplicon within the input sample. The amplification module and the detection module are integrated within the housing.

  • Patent number: 12127851
    Abstract: A method and system for augmented neurologic rehabilitation (ANR) of a patient is disclosed. The ANR system generates rhythmic auditory stimulus (RAS) and a visual augmented reality (AR) scene that are synchronized according to a common beat tempo and output to the patient during a therapy session. Sensor worn by the patient capture biomechanical data relating to repetitive movements performed by the patient in sync with the AR visual content and RAS. A critical thinking algorithm analyzes the sensor data to determine a spatial and temporal relationship of the patient's movements relative to the visual and audio elements and determine a level of entrainment of the patient and progression toward clinical/therapeutic goals. Additionally, a 3D AR modelling module configures the processor to dynamically adjust the augmented-reality visual and audio content output to the patient based on the determined level of entrainment and whether a training goal has been achieved.

  • Patent number: 12124085
    Abstract: An input device for a multiple wavelength band optical switch comprising: an optical demultiplexer configured to receive light and disperse the received light along a dispersion axis; and a light director configured to direct light in a first wavelength band to the optical demultiplexer at a first angle of incidence and to direct light in a second wavelength band to the optical demultiplexer at a second angle of incidence, the second angle of incidence being different from the first: wherein the difference between the first and second angles of incidence causes the demultiplexer to output dispersed spectra of light corresponding to the first and second bands such that the dispersed spectrum corresponding to the first band is overlapped along the dispersion axis and separated along a switch axis relative to the dispersed spectrum corresponding to the second wavelength band, the switch axis being perpendicular to the dispersion axis.

  • Patent number: 10430047
    Abstract: In some examples, an electronic device may reduce the resolution or otherwise downsize content items to conserve storage space on the electronic device. Further, the electronic device may offload full resolution versions of content items that have been downsized, and the full resolution versions may be stored at a cloud storage or other network storage location. Subsequently, if the user, an operating system module, or an application on the electronic device requests a higher resolution version of the downsized content item, the higher resolution version may be downloaded from the network storage to the electronic device. Various techniques may be used for determining a size or resolution of the content item to download from the network storage.

  • Patent number: 9998911
    Abstract: In some examples, a first mobile device is placed into communication with a second mobile device, such as through a short-range radio connection. User information is transferred from the first mobile device to the second mobile device. For example, application information for an application and saved application state information may be transferred to the second mobile device. The second mobile device may configure the application on the second mobile device based in part on the application state information received from the first mobile device. In addition, a user communication ID may be transferred from the first mobile device to the second mobile device, and may be used for communication with a third device with which the first mobile device has previously communicated. For instance, the user communication ID may be used in place of a device communication ID when sending communications from the second mobile device.

  • Patent number: 9747000
    Abstract: In some examples, an electronic device may offload an application to a network storage. For instance, the application, associated application data, and/or saved application state information may be deleted from the electronic device. Subsequently, an application launcher may present a launcher user interface (UI) on a display associated with the electronic device. The launcher UI may include a first set of application representations corresponding to applications offloaded from the electronic device, and a second set of application representations corresponding to applications currently installed on the electronic device. In response to receiving a selection of one of the representations from the first set via the launcher UI, the selected application may be onloaded onto the electronic device. Further, in some cases, the electronic device may receive from the network storage at least one of the application data or the application state information for the onloaded application.

  • Patent number: 9712985
    Abstract: Some examples include repurposing a mobile device for performing a plurality of nonconventional functions, including a fire detector, a radiation detector, and a Wi-Fi repeater. For example, the mobile device may be configured to serve as a fire detector by one or more modules that may use an onboard camera, microphone, and temperature sensor to monitor an area for fires. In addition, the mobile device may be configured to serve as a radiation detector. For instance, a camera image sensor and/or the memory on the device may be used to detect elevated levels of radiation in the vicinity of the mobile device. In response to detecting a fire and/or radioactivity, the mobile device may send an alert notification to another device. Further, the mobile device may be configured to concurrently serve as a Wi-Fi repeater, such as for extending a range of a wireless router, or the like.

  • Patent number: 9654556
    Abstract: An electronic device may offload an application to a network storage to free up storage on the electronic device. For instance, an application file and, in some cases, associated application data and/or saved application state information may be stored at the network storage and deleted from the electronic device. Subsequently, a data management module may receive an instruction to onload the application back onto the electronic device, such as in response to a user input that selects the offloaded application, a determination that an upcoming activity may include use of the offloaded application, or a determination that a user usage pattern indicates that the offloaded application is likely to be used. In response, the data management module may download the corresponding application file from the network storage. In some cases, the electronic device may also receive associated application data and/or saved application state information from the network storage.
