  • Publication number: 20220261140
    Abstract: Methods and devices are provided for receiving, displaying and adjusting user input through a wearable device. An indicated value and an annulus are displayed on a touch-sensitive display of the wearable device. The annulus has a base segment and a highlighted segment. The highlighted segment begins at an origin of the annulus and extends to a first position of the annulus. The size of the highlighted segment corresponds to the indicated value. A first value-adjusting input is received at the touch-sensitive display. The first value-adjusting input includes one or both of a drag operation and a tap operation. The indicated value and the size of the highlighted segment are adjusted in accordance with the first value-adjusting input, such that the proportion of the annulus represented by the highlighted segment corresponds to a proportion of a difference between a base amount and a maximum amount represented by the indicated value.

  • Publication number: 20220226178
    Abstract: A trauma gurney includes a base connected to a frame by a vertical adjustment mechanism. The base is configured that it can be maneuvered over a receiving table. The frame holds a detachable platform suitable for the positioning of a patient thereon. Actuation of the adjustment mechanism allows the frame to be lowered and the patient platform to be detached. The patient platform is configured to be non-interfering with various procedures such as MRI procedures so the patient platform can remain with the patient after the patient has been transferred without adverse effects to the procedures. The patient platform can also be reattached to the frame after it has been removed. The trauma gurney beneficially allows a patient to be transferred from the gurney to another surface, such as for imaging, without requiring a conventional lateral transfer. Similarly, the trauma gurney allows a patient to be transferred back to the gurney.

  • Publication number: 20220214772
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for evaluating interactions with a user interface are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes identifying a set of mutation events specifying changes to the structure of a user interface that occurred during the user session, and generating user interface states specifying different structures of the user interface throughout the given user session. Based at least in part on the user interface states, playback data that present visual changes of the user interface corresponding to the set of mutation events that occurred during the user session are generated. Session activity data describing user interactions that occurred during the user session are also generated. At least a portion of the playback data and the session activity data are output to a requesting device.

  • Patent number: 11299363
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to print media stacks. In some examples, a device may include a sheet channel to guide a sheet of print media within the sheet channel above and separated in a vertical direction from a stack of printed media when the sheet of print media exits a print path of a printer. The device may include a plurality of clamps to control alignment of the sheet of print media on the stack of printed media when the sheet channel moves outboard from the sheet of print media to allow the sheet of print media to fall onto the stack of printed media, wherein the plurality of clamps sequentially pin the sheet of print media to the stack of printed media from a middle portion of the sheet of print media outward.

  • Publication number: 20220083353
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for evaluating interactions with a user interface of an application are disclosed. In one aspect, a method includes, for each of a plurality of different user sessions of a native application, accessing frame bundles that each include data representing content presented by a frame of a user interface of the native application at a given time. Each frame bundle includes at least a portion of a view tree of the native application used to generate the user interface at the given time and data specifying content presented by each view of the portion of the view tree. Based on the frame bundles, playback data are generated that present visual changes of the user interface corresponding to changes to the view trees.

  • Publication number: 20210341420
    Abstract: A laser-line-generating system generates and process a laser light to illuminate a capillary array. The laser-line-generating system includes a laser-light source, focusing optics, a first optical scanner, and a second optical scanner. The laser-light source outputs a first laser light. The focusing optics receives the first laser light and reduces a beam width of the first laser light. The first optical scanner receives the first laser light and output a first optical-scanner-outputted light by varying an angle of outputted light along a first dimension. The second optical scanner receives the first optical-scanner-outputted light and outputs a second optical-scanner-outputted light by varying an angle of outputted light along a second dimension. The second optical-scanner-outputted light includes a line with dimensional components in both the first dimension and the second dimension.

  • Patent number: 11087651
    Abstract: An underwater image projection system submerged in a body of water and projecting an image within the body of water. The system includes a submerged projection element, a light source steering device, a user interface, and a controller. The submerged projecting element includes a projecting light source that projects an image within the body of water. The light source steering device directs light from the projecting light source. The user interface receives data input from a user including at least one of an input of the image and instructions for displaying the image. The controller retrieves the data input from the user interface, accesses image data corresponding to the image, and controls the projecting light source and the light source steering device to project the image onto a target surface within the body of water based on the data input from the user interface.

  • Publication number: 20210212785
    Abstract: An articulating joint comprising a multi-cluster joint where every consecutive pair of links is interfaced by a gimbal, which offers rotation about two orthogonal axes within the same plane. Thus, the articulating joint comprises an alternating sequence of links and gimbals. Furthermore, there may be multiple cables attached to one or more of the links. As these cables are selectively pulled and released, one can achieve any desired articulation of the articulating joint. There may be a transmission member extending through the links and gimbals, parallel to the central longitudinal axis of the joint in its nominal non-articulated condition. This transmission member may be either a tension member that is pulled on (e.g. a cable or flexible pull rod) and that loads the articulating joint in compression, or the transmission member may be a flexible push rod that loads the articulating joint in tension.
