The embodiment may further include embedding the inaudible sound frequency voice with audio data.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices are provided for automatically adjusting the scale or magnification of an intraluminal image on a display of an intraluminal imaging system based on a measured or computed size of the vessel. For example, a system may include a processor configured to receive, from an intraluminal imaging catheter or guidewire, a first intraluminal image of a body lumen, and compute a dimension of an anatomical feature of the body lumen based on the first intraluminal image. The processor computes a scaling factor for the first intraluminal image based on the dimension of the body lumen, scales the first intraluminal image by the scaling factor, and outputs the scaled first intraluminal image to a display in communication with the processor circuit.

Abstract: A method includes: receiving, by a processor set, context data from one or more Internet of Things (IoT) sensors; identifying, by the processor set, one or more objects in a frame of a video stream, thereby determining identified objects; classifying, by the processor set, the identified objects, thereby determining classified objects; prioritizing, by the processor set, the classified objects using the context data, thereby determining prioritized objects; selecting, by the processor set, an object from the prioritized objects; enhancing, by the processor set, the frame of the video stream based on the selected object; and rendering, by the processor set, the enhanced frame on a display of a visual enhancement device.

Abstract: A fiber Bragg grating sensor arrangement includes a resonant cavity light emitting diode for outputting light; a fiber having a first end disposed to receive light output from the resonant cavity light emitting diode, the fiber including fiber Bragg grating etched at one or more locations along a length thereof. A strain mount or beam supports the fiber and to which the fiber is attached or bonded. A light detection circuit disposed at a second end of the fiber receives light traveling through the fiber, the light detection circuit sensing intensity of the received light that corresponds to strain or force applied to the fiber that is bonded to the strain mount. Another fiber Bragg grating sensor arrangement includes a second reference fiber that does not receive a force or strain. The reference fiber provides an output used to prevent temperature/humidity from affecting the output of the FBG sensor arrangement.

Abstract: An edge protector for a sports board in the form of a bead of a resilient material having a cross-section comprising a central portion and, extending therefrom in one direction, a tapering impact-absorbing section and, extending from the central portion in the opposing direction, a pair of convergent leg sections for engaging an edge of the board. The central portion and the impact-absorbing section together form a triangular cross-section, which is particularly suited to receiving and dissipating an impact. The triangular section can be a hollow triangular section to reduce weight and tailor the impact response. One leg of the pair extends beyond the other leg to case fitting. The bead is preferably formed by extrusion; silicone with a Shore A hardness of between 62 and 68 provides an ideal resilient material.

Abstract: Provided are a computer program product, system, and method for providing a repository of audio files having pronunciations for text strings to provide to a speech synthesizer. The repository has data structures for text strings in documents. A data structure for a text string indicates at least one attribute of a presentation of the text string in the document and at least one audio file providing at least one audio pronunciation of the text string. A search text string and a search attribute are received from the speech synthesizer. A determination is made of a data structure in the repository including a text string and an attribute matching the search text string and the search attribute, respectively. An audio file, indicated in the determined data structure, is returned to the speech synthesizer to output for the search text string in a document being processed by the speech synthesizer.
