  • Patent number: 10289207
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to allow a user to use their feet as an alternative to their hands as a source of input for motion control. Such a method may be provided comprising receiving orientation data representing orientation information for a controller manipulated by a user, receiving movement data representing dynamic information for the controller, evaluating at least one of the orientation data and the movement data, and moving an avatar in a direction based on the direction in which the controller is moved. The method can be implemented in a software application or across multiple software applications on different platforms.

  • Patent number: 10242711
    Abstract: A method includes grouping media items associated with a user into segments based on a timestamp associated with each media item and a total number of media items. The method also includes selecting target media from the media items for each of the segments based on media attributes associated with the media item. The method also includes generating a video that includes the target media for each of the segments by generating a first animation that illustrates a first transition from a first item from the target media to a second item from the target media with movement of the first item from an onscreen location to an offscreen location, wherein the first item is adjacent to the second item in the first animation and determining whether the target media includes one or more additional items. The method also includes adding a song to the video.

  • Publication number: 20190057534
    Abstract: Techniques are described for dynamically determining a transition, at run-time, between user interface states of an application based on a timing function that is used for multiple, different transitions within one or more applications. The timing function is applied to the various transitioning graphical elements in the user interface, such that the appearance of each shared element is progressively altered at a rate that is determined according to the timing function. Shared elements are transitioned using the timing function (e.g., as a whole) during the duration of the transition. Outgoing and incoming elements are transitioned, respectively, using a first subsection and second subsection of the timing function, wherein the subsections are bounded by an inflection time which, in some instances, corresponds to a time of peak velocity of the timing function.

  • Publication number: 20180132536
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an aerosol delivery device including a variable output flow sensor. The variable output flow sensor particularly can be a flex/bend sensor wherein output from the sensor varies based upon changes in electrical current flow (e.g., resistance) along an extension of the sensor relative to flexing or bending of the extension resulting from airflow across the extension. The disclosure further provides methods for controlling operation of an aerosol delivery device through utilization of a variable output flow sensor. In particular, control of functional elements (e.g., a heating member, a fluid delivery member, and a sensory feedback member) can allow for real-time changes in the operation of the aerosol delivery device relative to airflow through the device.

  • Publication number: 20180080581
    Abstract: A gas outlet extender allows for relocation of existing medical gas outlets to positions that are more ergonomic to care-givers at the point-of-use. In various aspects, the gas outlet extender may take one source of gas supply and provide the facility with a plurality of separate sources of that gas supply. By taking measurements of various parameters of the gas supply, an installer may obtain confidence that the gas flow for each of the plurality of separate sources meets regulatory requirements.
