  • Publication number: 20240126373
    Abstract: A hand-tracking platform generates gesture components for use as user inputs into an application of an Augmented Reality (AR) system. In some examples, the hand-tracking platform generates real-world scene environment frame data based on gestures being made by a user of the AR system using a camera component of the AR system. The hand-tracking platform recognizes a gesture component based on the real-world scene environment frame data and generates gesture component data based on the gesture component. The application utilizes the gesture component data as user input in a user interface of the application.

  • Patent number: 10430080
    Abstract: The embodiments set forth techniques for managing storage space in user devices. A storage space manager can be configured to receive a request to increase an available amount of storage space within the user device, identify applications where at least a portion of the application's associated data can be deleted to increase the available storage space, determining particular applications whose identified associated data should be deleted, and causing the associated data to be deleted. According to some embodiments, applications managed by the storage space manager are not adapted to manage storage space themselves. Instead, these applications can be registered to the storage space manager and can be grouped into subsets that share sections of storage space within the user device. Moreover, the storage space manager can be a subsystem storage space manager that interfaces with a higher-level system storage manager that orchestrates storage space management within the user device.

  • Publication number: 20110182914
    Abstract: The invention relates to methods for modulating granulocyte activation and migration, use of such methods in the treatment of diseases and compositions which may be employed in such methods and uses. In particular, the modulation of granulocyte activation/migration is achieved by increasing or decreasing the amount of lactoferrin in the vicinity of said granulocytes.
