Abstract: The present disclosure provides a user interface for a digital camera such as a digital camera built into a smartphone or other multipurpose portable electronic device. The user interface simultaneously displays an electronic viewfinder image and at least one other image such as a previously captured image. The previously captured image is located within the electronic viewfinder image. Designated input causes the previously captured image to be enlarged from an initial size to an enlarged size.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide a mapping application for generating views of a three-dimensional (3D) map. The mapping application includes a geographic data module for identifying a set of geographic data that represents a portion of the 3D map. The set of geographic data includes a set of camera captured images that correspond to the portion of the 3D map. The mapping application includes an image processing module for rendering the view of the 3D map based on the geographic data by animating a type of map element in the view of the 3D map.

Abstract: A mapping program for execution by at least one processing unit of a device is described. The device includes a touch-sensitive screen and a touch input interface. The program renders and displays a presentation of a map from a particular view of the map. The program generates an instruction to rotate the displayed map in response to a multi-touch input from the multi-touch input interface. In order to generate a rotating presentation of the map, the program changes the particular view while receiving the multi-touch input and for a duration of time after the multi-touch input has terminated in order to provide a degree of inertia motion for the rotating presentation of the map.

Abstract: An extravascular system for accessing the vasculature of a patient including a catheter having an interior surface, a needle disposed within the catheter, and/or a needle cap defining at least one capillary space and including a flexible seal surrounding the at least one capillary space. The flexible seal may engage the interior surface of the catheter. A method of controlling exposure to a liquid from an extravascular system including providing a wicking material positioned adjacent to a flow channel such that any fluid located external to the flow channel is retained by the wicking material. The wicking material may be incorporated into any extravascular system where exposure to liquids is undesirable.

Abstract: An extravascular system for accessing the vasculature of a patient may include a catheter, a needle disposed within the catheter, and/or a needle tip shield assembly. The needle tip shield assembly may have a needle cap, the needle cap may have a needle shield, and the needle shield may have one or more flags. The flags may include a first flag and a second flag. The first flag and the second flag may form an engageable barrier through which the needle cannot penetrate once the barrier is engaged. The needle shield may be a V-clip. The V-clip may include a first arm and a second arm, and the first flag may be secured to the first arm while the second flag may be secured to the second arm.

Abstract: A method and device are provided for configuring a mobile device to control a controllable device. A wireless control signal is sent to the controllable device. Control command information is wirelessly received from the controllable device. The mobile device is configured to control the controllable device based on the received control command information.

Abstract: This invention propose a way of controlling the flux density in a current transformer to keep the transformer core saturated between two consecutive measurements in a sampling measurement system. Saturation disables transformation of primary to secondary current, and thereby disables losses in the secondary circuit during this time. Both AC and DC currents are possible to measure. The use of saturation of the transformer core also permits the core to be designed physically very small. In order to get effective and accurate low power consuming measurements, both the magnetic fields originating from primary current flowing in the primary winding and external magnetic fields must be symmetrically physically spread in the transformer core. This greatly limits the possible physical arrangement of the primary winding.

Abstract: A method and system align frames of a digital link which interconnects two entities. Frames in which overhead is interleaved with payload are considered. The frame alignment is executed in two phases such that the actual frame alignment, in which a predetermined frame alignment word (FAW) is found, is preceded by a procedure called `column alignment`. The idea with column alignment is to find the positions for the overhead columns or overhead bits of a pending frame of payload and interleaved overhead. During column alignment the transmitting entity will send an easily detectable column alignment word (CAW) and the receiving entity will quickly recognize the overhead bit positions in the interleaved frame. When the positions for the overhead bits have been detected, the transmitting entity will start to send Normal Frames and the receiving entity will gain final frame alignment by finding the FAW in the overhead bit positions.

Abstract: The invention refers to constructions of rolled steel materials and to a process for the preparation of such constructions. The invention resides in the improvement of using, in the parts of said construction where the estimated tensile stress component in any direction perpendicular to the rolling direction of the material is equal to or greater than the estimated tensile stress component in the rolling direction of the material, a steel containing about 0.002 - 0.05 % by weight of sulphur and tellurium in an amount of about 0.002 - 0.009 % by weight + about 0.1 times the sulphur content in % by weight, the content of silicate bound oxygen being less than about 300 parts per million.
