Abstract: A sheet product package and method of making discrete plastic sheets includes a package enclosure with a dispensing opening structure and a plurality of discrete plastic sheets arranged in a stack. The plurality of discrete plastic sheets are disposed within the package enclosure, and each of the plurality of discrete plastic sheets is electrostatically charged. In the method of making the dispensable plastic sheets, electrostatically charged discrete plastic sheets are formed and arranged in a stack. The method may include forming a continuous plastic film, cutting the continuous plastic film into discrete plastic sheets, and, after cutting, electrostatically charging the discrete plastic sheets.

Abstract: An interleaved encoder includes a number of encoders consisting of L parallel encoders, and a first switch circuit to sequentially couple an input node to an input port of one of the encoders. The input node receives a group of K*L symbols. Each symbol of the group of K*L symbols is received in synch with a respective clock pulse of a group of K*L clock pulses. The first switch circuit is synched with clock pulses of the group of K*L clock pulses, and sequentially couples the input node to an input port of a subsequent one of the encoders in response to each clock pulse of the group of K*L clock pulses.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for prioritizing candidate objects on which to perform a physical process includes receiving a time series history of measurements from each of a plurality of candidate objects at a data processing framework. The method further includes reducing dimensionality of the time series history of measurements with a convolutional autoencoder to obtain latent features for each of the plurality of candidate objects. The method also includes applying a kernel regression model to the latent features to generate a predicted value of physical output for performing the physical process on each of the plurality of candidate objects. The method additionally includes generating a prioritization of the candidate objects based on the values of physical output. The method involves selecting fewer than all of the plurality of candidate objects on which to perform the physical process. The selected candidate objects are based on the prioritization.

Abstract: A wireless wrist mouse, used with an apparatus including a display having a cursor, has a body mountable to a user's hand/wrist by wrist mounting structure. A motion sensor and motion circuitry are carried by the body and are operably connected to one another. The motion circuitry includes a library of command motions. The motion circuitry is constructed to generate first and second command signals corresponding to the first and second command motions when the body has been moved in predetermined manners for receipt by and operation of the apparatus. The first command signals correspond to cursor movement directions for controlling movement of the cursor over the display. The second command signals correspond to control functions for the apparatus. In some examples, the motion sensor comprises a MEMS sensor. In some examples, the motion sensor comprises a translational, rotational, and vibrational movement motion sensor.

Abstract: A remote control controls an audiovisual apparatus, such as a TV, using conventional physical inputs, such as buttons, or by controlled movement of the remote control. Circuitry connected to the physical inputs generates command signals for receipt by and operation of the apparatus. The command signals, such as On or Change Channel, correspond to control functions for the apparatus. The remote control also includes a motion sensor and motion circuitry connected to one another and constructed to generate at least some of the command signals when the body has been moved in predetermined manners for receipt by and operation of the apparatus. The remote control can therefore be operated using either the physical inputs or by moving the remote control in at least one of the predetermined manners. In some examples the motion sensor comprises a MEMS sensor.
