  • Patent number: 11969030
    Abstract: Wearable items and methods of monitoring wearable items are disclosed. The wearable item comprises a flexible base material forming at least a portion of the wearable item, plural conductive traces traversing the flexible base material, and conductivity sensing circuitry coupled to the plural conductive traces. The conductivity sensing circuitry is configured to distinguish conductivity from non-conductivity of the plural conductive traces, and configured to generate a conductivity indication for at least one of the plural conductive traces. The plural conductive traces follow indirect paths across the flexible base material, allowing the flexible material to flex and stretch normally without breaking the conductive traces.

  • Publication number: 20210271856
    Abstract: An example computer device includes a housing, a camera disposed in the housing, a processor disposed in the housing, and a shutter coupled to the housing. The camera receives visible light and infrared light. The processor carries out facial recognition authentication using the infrared light received by the camera. The shutter includes a filter to block visible light and allow passage of infrared light. The shutter is selectively movable to a filtered position, wherein the filter is superimposed over the camera to block visible light and allow infrared light to reach the camera for the facial recognition authentication.

  • Patent number: 9940897
    Abstract: A method for sharing a mixed reality experience (mixed reality content, mixed reality event) between one or more computing devices is disclosed. The method includes: determining a spatial location and a spatial orientation (spatial data) of the one or more computing devices each having a camera; mapping the (spatial) location and/or the spatial orientation (spatial data) of each of the one or more computing devices into a mixed reality manager; and presenting an event that is shared among the one or more computing devices, and, the presenting of the event is experienced simultaneously and varies among each of the one or more computing devices depending on the location or the orientation or both.

  • Patent number: 9569539
    Abstract: Providing for dynamic auditing of components of a communication network is provided herein. By way of example, network components can be queried by way of dynamic and intelligent application programming interface (APIs) queries to extract data for the network components. Such data can then be compared with best practice rules to identify potential enhancements to efficiency or scalability of such components. In some aspects, an audit report can be output summarizing identified enhancements. In other aspects, data can be written to an updated component according to protocols suited to such component. Accordingly, an audit can provide feedback in light of best practices or can be utilized to dynamically upgrade a legacy system to newer system software and/or hardware components.

  • Patent number: 5942065
    Abstract: The skin adhesive decal is a combination of a multi-color flexographically printed design on a very thin, flexible, extensible, uniform layer of water resistant material covering a water soluble release layer carried by porous decal paper and a uniform deposit of adhesive covering the design and adapted to hold the design against the skin and protect it from disruption. The decal may be combined with a sticker to form a unique singular product capable of separation by the user into its sticker and decal components. The sticker is a combination of a multi-color flexographically printed design on an ink-accepting paper lying atop a very thin, uniform layer of removable pressure sensitive adhesive atop a liner weight backing paper.
