Abstract: Methods and systems for planning and forming incisions in a cornea, lens capsule, and/or crystalline lens nucleus are disclosed. A method includes measuring spatial dispositions, relative to a laser surgery system, of at least portions of the corneal anterior and posterior surfaces. A spatial disposition of an incision of the cornea is generated based at least in part on the measured corneal anterior and posterior spatial dispositions and at least one corneal incision parameter. A composite image is displayed that includes an image representative of the measured corneal anterior and posterior surfaces and an image representing the corneal incision.

Abstract: A system and a method provide for protecting a loudspeaker from thermal and/or mechanical failure by monitoring for over-temperature and over-power conditions. The system generates a first gain from a first speaker protection controller in response to a driving voltage and/or a driving current of a loudspeaker, and generates a second gain from a second speaker protection controller in response to the driving voltage and/or a driving current of the loudspeaker, if the temperature exceeds a thermal limit or if the power exceeds a maximum power. The system applies the second gain to an audio signal to lower the audio signal if the first speaker protection controller fails.

Abstract: An electromechanical lock according to the present invention includes a lock extension and a blocking module having an interior region. A pivot bolt is mounted in the interior region for rotation about a rotation axis between a nominal position and an unsecured position. First and second blockers are also disposed in the interior for movement between their respective nominal positions and an unblocking position. The lock further includes an override disposed in the interior region for movement between a nominal position and an override position. The lock is in a secured condition when the first and second blockers and the override are in their respective nominal positions and an unsecured condition when the second blocker is in its unblocking position.

Abstract: A system may comprise a video data buffer configured to store input video frame data received from a source; and a video processor logically coupled to the video data buffer, wherein the video processor is configured to cause the stored video frame data to be output from the video data buffer at an output video frame rate, and vary the output video frame rate based on an amount of video frame data stored at the video data buffer.

Abstract: An internal spring system resiliently supports a mattress in an item of furniture. The spring system includes a system of sinuous springs arranged between upper and lower wire grids. A movable extender assembly is mounted on the grids to accommodate a longitudinal shift between the upper and lower grids during folding of the spring system between open and closed positions.

Abstract: A container for holding a product such as snack food, wherein the container is transformable from a cylindrical shape to a bowl shape adapted to hold and provide easy access to the product.

Abstract: A container for holding a product such as snack food, wherein the container is transformable from a cylindrical shape to a bowl shape adapted to hold and provide easy access to the product. The container comprises rigid sidewall panels connected by frangible lines and a flexible inner sleeve adhered to the inner surface of each sidewall panel. Pulling outwardly on the sidewall panels transforms the container into a bowl shaped structure large enough to hold the product.

Abstract: In one aspect of the present disclosure, a system and method are provided for pairing a network-enabled movable barrier operator with a transmitter. The method may include receiving a pairing request, retrieving a hashed version of the transmitter fixed code, verifying access authorization, and forwarding the hashed version of the transmitter fixed code to a movable barrier operator to allow the movable barrier operator to determine whether a new transmitter is authorized to control the movable barrier operator.

Abstract: A method for processing video can include storing input video frame data at a video data buffer and outputting the stored video frame data from the video data buffer at an output video frame rate based on at least an amount of video frame data stored at the video data buffer.

Abstract: A device for forming bow springs in a one-piece centralizer includes a swing arm that is configured to receive the one-piece centralizer. The device and process using the device include mechanically applying, with a press, an external load onto an un-formed bow spring positioned on a form of the swing arm. When the load is applied with the device, the un-formed centralizer is forced downward to allow the bow spring to take the desired form/shape/geometry, length, and height of a formed bow spring.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a screen apparatus is provided. The screen apparatus is comprised of a base and a screen case. Disposed within the base are a power inverter, one or more batteries, a fuse panel, and a first screen roller. Disposed within the screen case is a second screen roller. The screen case is further provided with a means for hanging the screen case from a stable structure. The screen case is pulled away from the base to expose a screen.

Abstract: A method for a robotic surgical system includes displaying a graphical user interface on a display to a user, wherein the graphical user interface includes a plurality of reconfigurable display panels, receiving a user input at one or more user input devices, wherein the user input indicates a selection of at least one software application relating to the robotic surgical system, and rendering content from the at least one selected software application among the plurality of reconfigurable display panels.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a wear band comprises a rotating element having a bore receivable on a tubular, the bore comprising first and second bore portions slidably receiving first and second sleeve bearings. Outer surfaces of the sleeve bearings slidably engage the bore portions and the bores of the sleeve bearings slidably engage the tubular. A first and a second stop collars may be received on the tubular to together straddle the rotating element and sleeve bearings to longitudinally secure the rotating element in a position on the tubular. The tubular may be included within a tubular string run into a borehole or into the bore of an installed casing, such as in casing while drilling. The rotating element provides stand-off between a tubular and the wall of a bore, reduces frictional resistance to longitudinal sliding and also to rotation of the tubular string within the bore.

Abstract: A method for processing video can include storing input video frame data at a video data buffer and outputting the stored video frame data from the video data buffer at an output video frame rate based on at least an amount of video frame data stored at the video data buffer.
