Abstract: A robot arm control device includes a pressure sensing module, a workspace defining module and a control module. The pressure sensing module, arranged on a robot arm, detects whether an object hits or touches the robot arm to switch the operating mode of the robot arm. The workspace defining module includes a sensing region arranged on a peripheral area around the robot arm. The workspace defining module determines whether the object enters an operating space according to the position of the object in the sensing region, and sets the working range and the working mode of the robot arm according to which operating space the object has entered.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to formation of a low-k spacer. For example, the present disclosure includes an exemplary method of forming the low-k spacer. The method includes depositing the low-k spacer and subsequently treating the low-k spacer with a plasma and/or a thermal anneal. The low-k spacer can be deposited on a structure protruding from the substrate. The plasma and/or thermal anneal treatment on the low-k spacer can reduce the etch rates of the spacer so that the spacer is etched less in subsequent etching or cleaning processes.

Abstract: Provided herein is a method for absorbing CO2 from a gas mixture. The method includes using an apparatus comprised of a first RPB unit and a second RPB unit. The first RPB unit and the second RPB unit are arranged to absorb CO2 in a first gas stream and a second gas stream, respectively. A liquid CO2-absorbent is supplied sequentially passing through the first RPB unit and the second RPB unit to absorb CO2 in the first gas stream and the second gas stream. The liquid CO2-absorbent is regenerated to produce a regenerated CO2-absorbent. The regenerated CO2-absorbent is transported to the first RPB unit.

Abstract: Navigating within a document to a specific cursor location within an open document which a user has marked with a temporary anchor point by receiving a retrieval keystroke within the document from the user; verifying the retrieval keystroke relates to a temporary anchor point; and based on the verified retrieval keystroke, a computer moving a cursor to the location within the document at which the temporary anchor point associated with the verified retrieval keystroke is located, without additional user interaction with the open document.

Abstract: A cable clip disposed at an electronic device and adapted to clamp a cable is provided. The cable clip comprises a first clamping unit and a second clamping unit. The first clamping unit has a first clamping portion and two spaced-apart anti-pulling portions. The second clamping unit has a second clamping portion corresponding in position to the first clamping portion and two fixing portions corresponding in position to the two anti-pulling portions, to which the two anti-pulling portions are connected respectively. The cable is clamped between the first and second clamping portions when the first and second clamping units fit together in operation, and thus part of the electronic device is confined between the two anti-pulling portions, allowing the first clamping unit to bear a pulling force by one of the two anti-pulling portions. The cable clip prevents detachment of the cable's connector otherwise electrically connected to the electronic device.

Abstract: System and method of WLAN authentication enabling a user equipment (UE) to automatically and autonomously detect an authentication protocol to gain access to a specified wireless local area network (WLAN) and thereby use Long-Term Evolution (LTE)-WLAN Aggregation (LWA) for data transmission. During LWA activation, the UE receives an instruction from an LTE control station to connect to a specific WLAN access point (AP), and in response starts to perform a set of authentication processes configured according to different authentication protocols until one that results in successful authentication. In this manner, the UE can determine an authentication protocol used by a WLAN AP even when the LTE control station is incapable of providing adequate information for purposes of WI-FI authentication.
