Abstract: The present invention is directed to a magnetic vestibular stimulation (MVS) system for rehabilitation of subjects with vestibular and balance disorders. The magnetic vestibular stimulation system includes a magnet and a cooling system. In some embodiments, the subject wears video goggles in order to stimulate the subject to orient to a virtual reality. The subject can lie, sit or stand in or near a strong magnetic field generated by the system. The magnetic field generated by the system stimulates the vestibular system to counteract the inherent imbalance created by a naturally-occurring vestibular disorder. Particularly important, the direction and amplitude of vestibular stimulation can be easily manipulated by altering the orientation and distance of the head relative to the magnetic field vector. Thus, MVS can be precisely tailored to a patient's specific pattern of vestibular disturbance.

Abstract: Technology for a repeater is disclosed. The repeater can include a signal path configured to carry a signal having a selected radio frequency (RF) bandwidth on an RF carrier at a selected frequency. The signal path can include an intermediate frequency (IF) filter block operable for down-conversion of the RF carrier to an IF carrier to enable the selected RF bandwidth of the signal to be bandpass filtered at an IF filter bandwidth having an IF passband frequency range and the IF passband frequency range of the IF filter bandwidth is greater than the selected RF bandwidth. The down-conversion to the IF carrier can provide increased crossover attenuation or midband isolation of the RF carrier for the repeater.

Abstract: Disclosed are various examples for single-sign on by way of managed mobile devices. For example, an identity provider service can receive a request for an identity assertion from an application executed in a client device. The identity provider service can then detect a platform associated with the client device. A response to the request can be sent based at least in part on the platform, where the response requests authentication by a management credential. Data generated by the management credential is received from the client device, and the management credential is determined to be valid for the identity assertion. The identity assertion is then sent to the client device in response to determining that the management credential is valid for the identity assertion.
