Abstract: Accessories for mobile devices. Embodiments include an external protective case and/or holster for mobile electronic devices, wherein the external protective case/holster incorporates a battery pack, a payment processing device, television signal receiver, and/or a modular multi-input/output device.

Abstract: A mobile toilet with a ventilation and heat-dissipating device comprises a base and a main body. The base is connected to a bottom of the main body. Ventilation openings are disposed at positions of a lower half portion of a total height of the base and the main body connected together. An exhaust port and a canopy device are disposed at predetermined positions of a top of the main body. The lower ventilation openings naturally guide air into the mobile toilet according to a chimney effect, so that hot air and stinks in the mobile toilet flow upwardly to the exhaust port, thereby heavily exhausting the hot air and the stinks and cooling the mobile toilet by a lot of natural convection. The canopy device blocks external rainwater.

Abstract: Dry powder formulations for inhalation and their use in the treatment diseases and conditions. The formulation contains a uniform blend of a first spray-dried powder and a second spray-dried powder. The first spray-dried powder contains spray-dried particles of a therapeutically active ingredient dispersed in a pharmaceutically acceptable hydrophobic excipient. The second spray-dried powder contains spray-dried particles formed from a pharmaceutically acceptable hydrophobic excipient but are substantially free of any therapeutically active ingredient. The active ingredient in the first spray-dried powder is loaded sufficiently high to compensate for the second spray-dried powder being substantially free of any active ingredient. A process for preparing such formulations is also described.

Abstract: Various embodiments relate to systems and methods for orienting an image captured by a camera (e.g., on a wearable computing device such as a smartwatch). The system can include an orientation sensor (e.g., one or more accelerometers) for detecting the orientation of the camera. In some embodiments, a controller can modify (e.g., crop and/or rotate) a first image captured by the camera (e.g., at a misaligned orientation) to produce a second image. In some embodiments, an actuator can move (e.g., rotate) the camera to an aligned position before the image is captured. The controller can use information from the orientation sensor to determine an amount of rotation to be applied to the camera and/or to the first image in order to orient the image at the desired orientation.
