  • Patent number: 12235889
    Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to providing device messages in image compilations based on user content. A computer-implemented method includes determining that a playback mode is entered on a device to display one or more image compilations, each image compilation including images for successive display. Message criteria are obtained for device messages, each device message indicating a device function associated with images of the image compilations or of a user image library. A device message is selected based on associated message criteria. An image is identified in the user image library, the image being in the image compilations, depicts a type of image feature in the image compilations, and/or has characteristic(s) modifiable by the device function. The device message is displayed during image compilation playback and includes the identified image and a message control option. In response to user selection of the message control option, the device function is initiated.

  • Publication number: 20250053924
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer program products for gathering electronic signatures to be applied to collaboration system content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). A collaboration system monitors changes made to the collaboration system content objects during electronic signature processing. A module of the content management system is configured to associate one or more instances of e-signing metadata to one or more of the stored content objects of the content management system. The e-signing metadata indicates whether or not a particular portion of the one or more of the stored content objects has been e-signed by a designated e-signatory. A collaborator who is not one of the designated e-signatories makes a change to one or more of the stored content objects (e.g., contracts, letters, insurance claims, riders, etc.). The change is remediated on-the-fly and the e-signing process continues without having to restart the e-signing process from the beginning.

  • Publication number: 20250044536
    Abstract: The present disclosure describes a network switch design that includes a vertical switch circuit board that is mounted parallel to the front panel of the network switch. The vertical circuit board supports switch chip(s) to process and forward packets and pluggable module connectors to receive pluggable optics modules that provide connections to other network switches. The pluggable module connectors are horizontally oriented to facilitate routing of electrical signal traces. The arrangement of the circuit board, switch chip(s) and pluggable module connectors achieves reduced lengths for the electrical signal traces that connect the switch chip(s) to the pluggable module connectors. The design improves cooling by providing separate airflow regions between the switch chip heatsink(s) and the optics modules.

  • Patent number: 12215314
    Abstract: The invention relates to integrated DNA and RNA library preparations and methods of making and uses thereof, wherein the DNA molecules are labelled with a tag identifying the molecule as being a DNA molecule and the RNA molecules are labelled with a tag identifying the molecule as being a RNA molecule. The methods do not require physical separation of DNA and RNA. The methods output two separate libraries from DNA and RNA, respectively, which helps flexible manipulation on downstream sequencing platforms. The application also claims the DNA library and the cDNA library produced by the method and the DNA tag and the RNA tag used in the method.

  • Patent number: 12144571
    Abstract: A force transmission system for a robotically controlled medical device can include a pushing actuator configured to be pushed by a robotic instrument controller and a wire. The wire can include a first end attached to an end of the pushing actuator to be pushed distally by the pushing actuator, and a second end attached to a distal location of the medical device. The system can include a reverse motion device that can be interfaced with the wire between the first end and the second end. The reverse motion device can be configured to cause a proximal pulling action on the second end in response to pushing of the first end distally by the pushing actuator or other actuation by the pushing actuator. The reverse motion device can be configured to maintain a point of contact with the wire in the same spatial location to prevent wire motion due to actuation.

  • Publication number: 20240373142
    Abstract: Example embodiments relate to reducing auto-exposure latency. An example embodiment includes a method of reducing auto-exposure latency. The method includes determining, by a processor, a first setting of an exposure parameter for a first frame to be captured by an image sensor. The first setting of the exposure parameter is determined based at least in part on characteristics of a previous frame captured by the image sensor. The first setting of the exposure parameter is determined during a first frame period associated with capturing the first frame. The method also includes initiating, by the processor, a first frame exposure operation based on the first setting of the exposure parameter. During the first frame exposure operation, the image sensor captures the first frame during the first frame period.

  • Publication number: 20240274235
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a method for aligning multiple sequences that models a sequence as a series of bases, wherein adjacent bases are connected through flexible spaces with variable lengths that represent extra spaces between adjacent bases. The method begins with creating an array of floating-point variables that represent spaces for bases within sequences. The method iteratively converges to the optimum set of spaces by gradient descent. In a non-limiting example of the method, the gradients of a space can be obtained by calculating a cost value used to increment or decrement the corresponding space by an integer amount. After each iteration, the spaces are updated by summing the calculated gradients scaled by a change rate, and the sequences are updated by adding or removing gaps between each base according to the quantized spaces. The final sequences become the solution to the multiple sequence alignment task.
