  • Publication number: 20240116189
    Abstract: A virtual robot image presentation method and an apparatus are provided to improve virtual robot utilization and user experience. In this method, an electronic device generates a first virtual robot image, and presents the first virtual robot image. The first virtual robot image is determined by the electronic device based on scene information. The scene information includes at least one piece of information in first information and second information, the first information is used to represent a current time attribute, and the second information is used to represent a type of an application currently running in the electronic device. According to the foregoing method, in a human-machine interaction process, virtual robot images can be richer and more vivid, so that user experience can be better, thereby improving virtual robot utilization of a user.

  • Patent number: 10619885
    Abstract: Airflow control device (1) for use in an air handling system, which comprises an outer tube (2) and at least one inner tube (3) arranged inside the outer tube (2). The inner tube (3) is at least partly made of flexible material and has an axial opening (4) through which air is adapted to flow. The inner tube (3) further exhibits an inlet part (8) and an outlet part (10), and a throttle part (9) between the inlet part and the outlet part. The device (1) is characterized by a pivotable throttling device (7) which is arranged to impact the inner tube (3), and thereby control the airflow through the inner tube (3), by rotation around a second pivot axis (b).

  • Patent number: 7362305
    Abstract: The method of entering data into a computer device. A wearable device is attached to a first body part. The device has a lower unit and an upper unit connected to the lower unit. The device has sensors in operative engagement therewith for registering movements. The wearable device has a first accelerometer and a second accelerometer. The lower unit is provided with non-movable parts. A segment of a second body part is moved relative to the device without having physical contact with the sensors. The movement of the segment activates the sensors. The sensors sending sensor signals to a microprocessor unit. The first accelerometer senses an acceleration movement in a first direction. The second accelerometer senses an acceleration movement in a second direction. The first and second accelerometers send acceleration movement signals to a microprocessor unit that stores acceleration movement signals from the accelerometers together with the sensor signals to learn movements of the body part.
