Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for stacked memory dice and combined access operations are described. A device may include multiple memory dice. One die may be configured as a master, and another may be configured as a slave. The master may communicate with a host device. A slave may be coupled with the master but not the host device. The device may include a first die (e.g., master) and a second die (e.g., slave). The first die may be coupled with a host device and configured to output a set of data in response to a read command. The first die may supply a first subset of the data and obtain a second subset of the data from the second die. In some cases, the first die may select, based on a data rate, a modulation scheme (e.g., PAM4, NRZ, etc.) and output the data using the selected modulation scheme.

Abstract: A printing system is disclosed. The printing system includes a storage device and a print job manager that stores received print jobs in the storage device and facilitates the printing of multiple selected print jobs as a batch of print jobs. The print job manager includes a page generator to generate an index separator page including information for each of the selected print jobs with the batch of print jobs.

Abstract: A cornhole platform is provided that offers improved distributed lighting across the platform playing surfaces for nighttime play, as well as enhanced aesthetics and graphic presentation. The platform playing surfaces are formed from acrylic or acrylic glass. A translucent finish is obtained on the playing surface by sanding the underside layer of the acrylic sheet, where the diffused finish is used to trap light provided by light sources that are arranged along the perimeter of a frame that holds the one or more acrylic sheets. The sanded finish acts to diffuse light from the light source to more evenly fill the playing surface with light. As a result, the “spotlight effect” common to conventional illuminated gameboards is precluded thereby making play under low ambient light conditions of twilight or outdoor darkness possible without creating night vision impairment associated with looking into a comparatively bright light relative to the ambient lighting.

Abstract: An infusion set and an intravenous bag adapter constructed of ultraviolet transmissive thermoplastic is used in spectroscopic validation of pharmaceuticals. The described hardware allows for qualitative and quantitative assurance of medications and is used to prevent medication errors. The thermoplastic is transmissive in the range of 240 to 315 nanometers.

Abstract: An infusion set and an intravenous bag adapter constructed of ultraviolet transmissive thermoplastic are used in spectroscopic validation of pharmaceuticals. The described hardware allows for qualitative and quantitative assurance of medications and is used to prevent medication errors. The thermoplastic is transmissive in the range below 315 nanometers. In one embodiment, the invention comprises a spectrometer and a test chamber that are unaffected by the presence of ambient light. The spectrometer includes an unshielded slot or receptacle into which the test chamber is easily fitted. This embodiment can function well in drug diversion programs for which unused post-op narcotics can be tested.

Abstract: A method of scanning a shoe. The method comprises directing from a source at least one first signal at the shoe, the at least one first signal comprising substantially millimetre and/or microwave radiation, receiving at one or more receivers a plurality of second signals, the plurality of second signals comprising reflections of the at least one first signal from different positions with the shoe. The method further comprises processing each of the second signals to determine a plurality of reflection positions within the shoe and processing the plurality of second signals and reflection positions to generate second data, the second data indicating a composition of the shoe.

Abstract: One exemplary aspect comprises a juice extractor having a top portion and a bottom portion that is inserted into a skin of a fruit, the juice extractor containing a cavity for collecting juice directly from the fruit, said bottom portion having an external surface with a plurality of openings through which pulp and seeds larger than each of said plurality of openings do not pass and juice flows and collects in said cavity; and a spray dispenser comprising a top portion and bottom portion, and comprising a spray pump partially disposed within and extending from the top portion of the spray dispenser, the bottom portion of the spray dispenser detachably coupled with the top portion of the juice extractor, the spray pump comprising a tube having a lower end disposed within the cavity and terminating within a void enclosed by said external surface, for collecting juice directly from the fruit.

Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a PET/SPECT reporter gene system that uses enhanced non-immunogenic versions of a human mitochondrial thymidine kinase 2 expressed in cytoplasm to preferentially trap novel PET/SPECT radiolabeled L and D-enantiomer analogs of the natural substrate thymidine. Such highly sensitive, non-immunogenic reporter genes function in combination with a set of novel, radiolabeled probes in whole body molecular imaging applications using positron emission tomography (PET) or single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT).
