Abstract: Systems and methods for synchronizing icons across interfaces for a dental chair are disclosed. In embodiments, a dental chair has a first interface and a second interface. Each interface includes a plurality of icons that graphically depict a stored position that can be actuated to command the chair to the stored position. The chair's position may be adjusted, and the adjusted position stored to one of the icons. Upon storage, the corresponding icon on both the first and second interfaces are updated to graphically depict the new stored position. Profiles that allow selection of different sets of stored positions may be provided. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.

Abstract: An implantable medical device includes an activity sensor, a pulse generator, and a control module. The control module is configured to determine activity metrics from the activity signal and determine an activity metric value at a predetermined percentile of the activity metrics. The control module sets a lower pacing rate set point based on the activity metric value at the predetermined percentile.

Abstract: An implantable cardioverter defibrillator (ICD) receives a cardiac electrical signal by a sensing circuit while operating in a sensing without pacing mode and detects asystole based on the cardiac electrical signal. The ICD determines, in response to detecting the asystole, if asystole backup pacing is enabled, and automatically switches to a temporary pacing mode in response to the asystole backup pacing being enabled. Other examples of detecting asystole and providing a response to detecting asystole by the ICD are described herein.

Abstract: The described embodiments allow for the association of an interaction with a target in a display. One embodiment includes detecting an interaction with an area associated with a graphical element in a display, detecting a later interaction displaced from the area, and associating the later interaction with a target in the display based at least on the time between the interaction with the area and the later interaction. User interactions with one or more displayed hit targets are based on corresponding time-varying hit zones. In response to unlimited user interaction with a hit target, subsequent user selections are validated based on a time-varying hit zone that is typically extended with respect to the previously selected hit target. The extended selection zone can overlap one or more other hit targets to favor re-selection of the individually selected hit target. The extended selection zone generally decreases as a function of time from prior selections of a hit zone.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for providing feedback and guidance to touch screen device users to improve the text entry user experience and performance. According to one embodiment, a method comprises receiving a text entry, receiving input on a touch screen in the form of a first single touch input located over a word of previously entered text, and presenting the user with one or more suggestion candidates indicated possible replacement words related to the selected word. The user can then select one of the suggestion candidates using a second single touch input to replace the selected word with a word associated with the selected suggestion candidate.

Abstract: A building system in which each panel of each four-panel foldable section and each end panel has preinstalled wiring with plug and play connectors at least at the electrical wiring limits of each such panel. Preferably, each wall panel has a prewired lighting circuit and a prewired convenience electrical outlet. Particular panels may have additional wiring variously for the switch box, the service door motors, fans, and the incoming primary electrical power source. The plug and play connectors for connecting between panels and between panels within four-panel sections include slack cable ends that enable the plug and play connectors to be stowed and secured (tape, bundle ties, etc.) during transport and storage of the folding building. Preferably, field-installed cable trays run the length of the building and field-installed cabling therein connects to preinstalled wiring using plug and play connectors.
