Abstract: A cell activation reactor and a cell activation method are provided. The cell activation reactor includes a body, a rotating part, an upper cover, a microporous film, and multiple baffles. The body has an accommodating space, which is suitable for accommodating multiple cells and multiple magnetic beads. The rotating part is disposed in the accommodating space and includes multiple impellers. The microporous film is disposed in the accommodating space and covers multiple holes of the accommodating space. The baffles are disposed in the body. When the rotating part is driven to rotate, the interaction between the baffles and the impellers separates the cells and the magnetic beads.

Abstract: A method, computer program product, and computer system for public speaking guidance is provided. A processor retrieves speaker data regarding a speech made by a user. A processor separates the speaker data into one or more speaker modalities. A processor extracts one or more speaker features from the speaker data for the one or more speaker modalities. A processor generates a performance classification based on the one or more speaker features. A processor sends to the user guidance regarding the speech based on the performance classification.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides intelligent radio frequency interference mitigation in a computing platform. The computing platform includes a processor, a memory, a system clock and a wireless network interface. The system clock can be controlled so that the processor and/or the memory may operate at a slow frequency or a fast frequency. The wireless network may operate on a radio channel that experiences radio frequency interference at the fast frequency. The system clock may be intelligently controlled to select the slow frequency to reduce radio frequency interference to prioritize execution of a network application, or to select the fast frequency to increase processor speed and prioritize execution of a local application.

Abstract: According to an exemplary embodiment, a method of forming a vertical device is provided. The method includes: providing a protrusion over a substrate; forming an etch stop layer over the protrusion; laterally etching a sidewall of the etch stop layer; forming an insulating layer over the etch stop layer; forming a film layer over the insulating layer and the etch stop layer; performing chemical mechanical polishing on the film layer and exposing the etch stop layer; etching a portion of the etch stop layer to expose a top surface of the protrusion; forming an oxide layer over the protrusion and the film layer; and performing chemical mechanical polishing on the oxide layer and exposing the film layer.

Abstract: A method for forming a photoelectric switch is disclosed. The method includes providing a granular mold having a first slot and a second slot; filling the first and the second slots with a light-filtering molding material; respectively positioning a transmitter component and a receiver component into the light-filtering molding material(s) in the first and the second slots; and solidifying the light-filtering molding material to fix the transmitter component and the receiver component in the granular mold.

Abstract: A LED controller and a control method thereof are disclosed. The LED controller can generate a control signal to drive a LED, measure a luminous intensity value of the LED, and selectively adjust the control signal according to the measured value to dynamically adjust the luminous intensity. Besides, a simple design of driving circuit is applied to achieve an effect of dynamically adjusting the current of the LED.

Abstract: A gravity sensor has a photo interrupter and a gravity wheel. The photo interrupter has a housing, a cavity in the housing, a light emitter on one side of the housing and a light detector on the other side of the housing. The gravity wheel points in a direction of gravity and has a pivot at center thereof and pivotally arranged on the housing, a plumb at one edge of the gravity wheel and a plurality of through holes annularly arranged in the gravity wheel. The gravity wheel has a portion present in the cavity. An inclined angle of a test object is determined by calculating relative movement between the photo interrupter and the gravity wheel.

Abstract: A photo interrupter with dual-direction detection ability comprises a main body, a pointer, a first spring and a second spring. The main body has retainers for pivotally clamping the pointer such that the pointer can rotate both in counterclockwise and clockwise directions. The pointer has a baffle in the recess to block a light from a light emitter to a light receiver and a pendulum end to sense the presence of paper. The first spring provides a counterclockwise restoring force for the pointer and the second spring provide a clockwise restoring force for the pointer such that the photo interrupter can sense paper fed in both directions.
