  • Publication number: 20230335139
    Abstract: Systems and methods may provide voice control to allow a patient and/or therapist to issue voice commands to efficiently navigate to desired, appropriate VR therapy activities and exercises. Generally, a VR platform and/or voice engine may receive a voice command, identify a requested VR activity in the voice command, and cause the corresponding VR activity to be provided. In some cases, a voice command may trigger a search by a voice engine and search results, e.g., an activity or command that best matches, returned. In some embodiments, a VR therapy platform may only allow voice commands by authorized users. In some embodiments, a VR platform may provide voice control via a VR system in online and/or offline mode, where offline mode has no internet or network connection, and voice processing may be performed without a cloud server.

  • Publication number: 20160150212
    Abstract: A live selective adaptive bandwidth method enables transmission of three dimensional 360 degree virtual reality content by slicing the content and utilizing different resolutions of the content, where content in the visible area of the user is a higher resolution than content in the non-visible area of the user. Additionally, network information such as available bandwidth is used in determining which resolution content to be transmitted.

  • Patent number: 7878851
    Abstract: Known pumping devices have a connection lid, a connection cap slipped over the connection lid, a hollow chamber formed between the connection lid and the connection cap, and electrical connections that extend through the connection cap into the hollow chamber. It is disadvantageous that when fuels containing water are being pumped, such as ethanol, corrosion can occur at the electrical connections and at the uninsulated cable segments that are exposed to fuel near the electrical connections, for instance at the electrical coils or flexible cables of the carbon brushes, and in the final analysis this leads to an interruption in the electrical contact and thus to failure of the pumping device. In the electrical device of the invention, corrosion of the electrical connections and of the electrical components adjoining them upstream and downstream is avoided entirely or at least greatly diminished. According to the invention, the electrical connections are each provided in separate chambers of the hollow chamber.
