Publication number: 20250163444Abstract: The invention provides cereal plants having a high level of fructan useful for the production of a range of food, beverage, nutraceutical and pharmaceutical products. The invention provides methods of producing high-fructan products from plants modified to comprise a reduced level of an endogenous polypeptide with starch synthase activity, and products so produced. In some embodiments, plants are modified by introduction of an agent such as a nucleic acid molecule which down regulates endogenous starch synthase II gene expression.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 17, 2025Publication date: May 22, 2025Applicant: Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research OrganisationInventors: Colin Leslie Dow Jenkins, Bryan Charles Clarke, Zhongyi Li, Matthew Kennedy Morell

Patent number: 12067798Abstract: Systems, apparatuses, devices and methods for body pose tracking are provided that are simple, inexpensive, flexible, accurate and robust. One body pose tracking system includes a mobile device, such as a smartphone, and active or passive marker bands. Images and depth information captured by the smartphone may be analyzed using an Inverse Kinematic (IK) model, and, in certain cases, the IK model solution may be augmented by machine learning. Other body pose tracking systems include an augmented-reality/virtual-reality (AR/VR) head-mounted-display (HMD) and/or AR/VR glasses rather than a smartphone. An AR/VR HMD device may include a depth sensor and multiple environment-facing cameras.Type: GrantFiled: January 11, 2022Date of Patent: August 20, 2024Assignee: Arm LimitedInventors: Roberto Lopez Mendez, Daren Croxford, Peter James Samuel Ferguson, Judicael Sean Eugene Clair, Koki Mitsunami, Benjamin Charles Clark, Mina Ivanova Dimova, Pavel Rudko
