Abstract: A user experience for processing and cropping images is provided. A menu of image processing modes may be displayed by a computing device. A selection of one of the image processing modes from the menu may then be received. An image may then be received by the computing device. The computing device may then process the received image based on the selected image processing mode. The computing device may then display user controls overlaying the processed image. A selection of one or more of the user controls may then be received to re-frame one or more boundaries of the processed image. The computing device may then send the processed and re-framed image to a productivity application.

Abstract: A filter assembly for a hypodermic syringe consists of a compartmented filter unit whose compartments contain filter material. Ports open through a lower wall of the respective compartment, and rotatably fixed to the filter unit is a disc-like fluid passage member having a first fluid passage therein one end of which is selectively movable into alignment with the respective ports and the other end of which is in communication with a second fluid passage through a needle-receiving hub fixed to the lower face of the fluid passage member. By indexing the fluid passage member, fluid pumped into and out of the syringe barrel may be subjected to filtration through fresh filter areas in successive compartments.

Abstract: For the determination of hematocrit percent in blood samples a tubular body is provided having an annular series of elongated container holes for receiving a plurality of blood samples after which the device is subjected to centrifugal force to separate the red cells from plasma. The device is transparent and a scale is marked on it so that the hematocrit percent can be read directly.
