Abstract: A method for completing jammed transactions at a transaction device by a computing system includes receiving partial transaction information related to an interrupted transaction, storing a physical document associated with the interrupted transaction at a receptacle such that the transaction device is operable to receive additional documents, receiving a first data packet associated with the interrupted transaction from a computing device where the first data packet includes image data captured by the computing device, determining additional transaction information based on the first data packet, and executing operations related to the interrupted transaction based on the additional transaction information.

Abstract: A method for providing an object message about an object, recognized in surroundings of a road user, in a communication network for communicating with other road users. The road user includes a sensor system for detecting the surroundings and an evaluation unit for evaluating sensor data generated by the sensor system and transferring object messages via the communication network. The method includes: receiving sensor data, generated by the sensor system, in the evaluation unit; recognizing at least one object in the surroundings of the road user based on the sensor data, a movement parameter and a further object parameter being ascertained; calculating an object transfer priority; determining, based on the object transfer priority, whether the recognized object is to be included in an object message; and, if so, generating the object message including the recognized object, and sending the object message via the wireless communication network.

Abstract: A fuel cell device of a motor vehicle is disclosed. The fuel cell device includes a fuel cell, a supply air path leading to the fuel cell for a cathode supply air flow, and an exhaust air path leading away from the fuel cell for a cathode exhaust air flow. The supply air path and the exhaust air path are routed through a humidifier that humidifies the supply air and dehumidifies the exhaust air. The exhaust air path is further routed through a water separator that removes water from the exhaust air to provide evaporation water. A heat exchanger for cooling the fuel cell is provided that has an evaporative cooler for cooling the heat exchanger. The evaporative cooler is assigned to the water separator in fluidic communication and is supplied with evaporation water by the water separator.

Abstract: Embodiments include systems and methods that may include receiving situational information triggering a need to alert the driver and in response to the need to alert the driver presenting an alert to the driver based on driver state information selected based on a likelihood the driver will be more receptive to the alert modality than others of the plurality of alert modalities. The likelihood the driver will be receptive to the alert modality may be based on the received situational information, the received driver state information, and a historical behaviour record. The historical behaviour record may correlate the driver's reaction or the reaction of other drivers to previous alerts presented to the driver or other drivers with similar driver state information and similar situational information triggering presentation of previous alerts. The system may learn from the reaction of the driver and/or other drivers to better select suitable alert modalities.

Abstract: A wearable computing system that includes a head-mounted display implements a gaze timer feature for enabling the user to temporarily extend the functionality of a handheld controller or other user input device. In one embodiment, when the user gazes at, or in the vicinity of, a handheld controller for a predetermined period of time, the functionality of one or more input elements (e.g., buttons) of the handheld controller is temporarily modified. For example, the function associated with a particular controller button may be modified to enable the user to open a particular menu using the button. The gaze timer feature may, for example, be used to augment the functionality of a handheld controller or other user input device during mixed reality and/or augmented reality sessions.

Abstract: Examples of systems and methods for rendering an avatar in a mixed reality environment are disclosed. The systems and methods may be configured to automatically scale an avatar or to render an avatar based on a determined intention of a user, an interesting impulse, environmental stimuli, or user saccade points. The disclosed systems and methods may apply discomfort curves when rendering an avatar. The disclosed systems and methods may provide a more realistic interaction between a human user and an avatar.

Abstract: A wearable system can comprise a display system configured to present virtual content in a three-dimensional space, a user input device configured to receive a user input, and one or more sensors configured to detect a user's pose. The wearable system can support various user interactions with objects in the user's environment based on contextual information. As an example, the wearable system can adjust the size of an aperture of a virtual cone during a cone cast (e.g., with the user's poses) based on the contextual information. As another example, the wearable system can adjust the amount of movement of virtual objects associated with an actuation of the user input device based on the contextual information.

Abstract: The method of culturing cells disclosed herein includes printing cells onto a substrate that includes cell adhesive regions and cell repulsive regions. The cells are suspended in a printing medium to create a cell suspension, and a volume of the cell suspension is loaded into a printer. A cell adhesive region of the substrate is aligned beneath the printing channel of the printer, and droplets of the cell suspension are dispensed from the printing channel directly onto the cell adhesive region. Contact of the dispensed droplets with cell repulsive regions of the substrate is limited, either by targeting of the droplets to the cell adhesive regions, by repulsions generated by the cell repulsive areas, or both. The cells adhere to the cell adhesive regions to create a cell pattern, and are maintained thereafter in a physiologically suitable environment.
