Abstract: A cognitive platform is disclosed that is configured for either or both of assessing or enhancing the cognitive abilities of an individual based on implementing one or more navigation task(s) in an environment. A first task is rendered that requires the individual to rely on allocentric navigation capabilities to navigate in the environment based on a first set of views of portions of the environment rendered at the user interface. A second task is rendered that requires the individual to rely on egocentric navigation capabilities to navigate in the environment. An indication of a cognitive ability in the individual can be generated based on the difference in the individual's performance at the first task as compared to the second task.

Abstract: A musical bodysuit assembly includes a bodysuit that is wearable on a user. A plurality of sound pads is each strategically located on the bodysuit thereby facilitating each of the sound pads to be touched by the user when the user is performing dance moves. Each of the sound pads has a speaker for emitting audible sounds and each of the sound pads has touch sensing capabilities. The speaker in a respective sound pad is turned on to emit an audible sound when the respective sound pad is touched by the user to produce music that corresponds to dance moves performed by the user. A communication unit is in communication with the speaker in each of the sound pads and the communication unit has wireless communication capabilities thereby facilitating the communication unit to download digital audio from a remote data source.

Abstract: An application (or process) may have an amount of steady state work to perform per unit time, as well as one or more mechanisms for doing a lower quality job of that work in the event the application falls behind. Approaches presented herein can utilize a clock monitor that enables the application to determine whether a clock loss was encountered that was due to an external source, and is of an amount of time that may be naturally recoverable by the application. If so, the application can enter into a mode of operation wherein the activation of one or more recovery mechanisms is postponed for a period of time to provide the application time to recover. If, after the period of such mode operation, the application has not recovered from the real time clock loss, then the recovery mechanism(s) can be activated as appropriate.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for memory repair for a memory device are described. An example apparatus includes: a data input/output circuit that provides data via a plurality of data signal lines; memory cell arrays; an ECC/Parity redundancy array; and a redundancy circuit coupled to the plurality of data signal lines. The redundancy circuit includes an error correction block that generates error correction information based on the data and provides the error correction information to the ECC/Parity redundancy array. If during test it is determined that a failure is not repairable by standard redundancy including error correction code, the error correction parity array is not needed and can be redirected by a block repair circuit. The error correction circuit can now have its functionality changed to allow the error correction array to become a block repair.
