Abstract: Described herein are fusion proteins that include a fragment of factor H and an Fc receptor binding domain, as well as the use of such proteins in methods of treatment for diseases mediated by alternative complement pathway dysregulation.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for scaling video streams, and in particular video streams of medical data such as those from an endoscope. Video streams can be scaled to match the resolution requirements of a video display device. By performing the video scaling on a single computing chip, video scaling can be achieved while avoiding or mitigating the 8.5 Gbps bandwidth limitations of 10G networks. The use of the single computing chip can also reduce costs associated with using multiple computing chips. The result is a multi-view, cost-effective solution for displaying high-quality video streams while avoiding 10G Ethernet network bottlenecks.

Abstract: One embodiment includes a method for offering a protection policy for a mobile device, the method comprising the steps of providing an application, conducting a test of the mobile device, calculating the risk of protecting the mobile device, and offering an protection policy. The application is configured to operate on the mobile device and to test at least one function of the mobile device. The test is conducted by the application and verifies at least one function of the mobile device through the application. The risk of protecting the mobile device is based upon at least one result of the test. The protection policy for the mobile device is based upon the calculated risk, has a cost, and is offered for purchase to a user of the mobile device.

Abstract: A modular seat/bed conversion assembly for use within the interior of a recreational vehicle. The seat/bed conversion assembly comprises a substantially horizontal seat configured to pivot forward substantially 180 degrees about a first axis; and a backrest comprising a first section, at least a portion of which is configured to pivot in a first direction about a second axis from a first position to a second position, and while in the second position, the first portion is substantially flush with and forms an extended substantially horizontal seating surface with the pivoted seat; and a second section configured to rotate in a second direction opposite the first direction between a substantially vertical position and a substantially horizontal position.

Abstract: A foldable counter assembly for use within the interior of a vehicle. The assembly comprises a first lower support member and a second lower support member, a first panel having a first end rotatably affixed to the first lower support member and a second end, and a second panel having a first end rotatably affixed to the second lower support member and a second end, the first and second panels configured to be converted from a non-deployed configuration to a substantially horizontal deployed configuration to form a substantially horizontal support surface. The first and/or the second panel include a pair of foldable support legs vertically extendable beneath the second end of the respective panel towards a bottom surface of the vehicle when the panel to which it is attached is in the deployed configuration to provide support in the substantial center of the substantially horizontal support surface.

Abstract: Various implementations include computing devices and related computer-implemented methods for rendering a scene in an augmented audio environment. Certain implementations include approaches for generating application programming interface (API) inputs on a display. Additional implementations include approaches for rendering the API inputs at an audio device.

Abstract: Various implementations include audio devices and related computer-implemented methods for controlling playback of augmented reality (AR) audio. Certain implementations include approaches for initiating AR audio playback at an audio device independent of a detected geographic location of the device. Additional implementations include approaches for initiating AR audio playback based upon one or more geographic location-specific indicators for the device.
