Abstract: Aspects of the disclosed technology include a method including receiving, from a user device, an identification of content; receiving, by a computing device, the identified content; accessing search engine processing logic; processing the received content using the subset of search engine processing logic, without indexing the received content to be accessed for responding to search queries from the search engine; generating a representation of a predicted search result of the received content based on the processing; and transmitting, to the user device, the representation of the predicted search result.

Abstract: Aspects discussed herein include an electronic device and an associated connector interface. The electronic device comprises an enclosure that defines an internal volume, a plurality of external surfaces, and a recess from an external surface of the plurality of external surfaces. The recess has circumferential slot(s) extending to the external surface and that receive flange(s) of an external connector. The electronic device further comprises a connector interface connected with one or more electronic components disposed in the internal volume. The connector interface comprises first conductor(s) that are exposed at the recess. While the flange(s) are received in the circumferential slot(s), rotation of the external connector causes the flange(s) to slide within the circumferential slot(s) into a retained position, in which second conductor(s) of the external connector, having a fixed disposition relative to the flange(s), are connected to the first conductor(s).

Abstract: An electronic device is described to monitor a temperature of an ambient environment. The electronic device comprises an enclosure that defines an internal volume and a plurality of external surfaces. The enclosure comprises a thermal member exposed to the ambient environment at an opening defined through a first external surface. The thermal member has a greater thermal conductivity than other portions of the enclosure, which have a greater transmissibility of wireless signals than the thermal member. The plurality of external surfaces and the thermal member are disposed to prevent liquids from entering the internal volume. The electronic device further comprises a temperature sensor disposed in the internal volume, thermally contacted with the thermal member, and connected with wireless transmitter circuitry to wirelessly transmit measurements of the temperature of the ambient environment.

Abstract: A manometry system includes a manometric catheter configured to sense pressure within a gastrointestinal tract, a computer in communication with the catheter, and a display. The manometric system may further include at least one of a remote controller configured to couple to the catheter, a strap configured to secure the catheter to a patient's head, or an RFID scanner configured to sense a location of one or more RFID tags attached to or embedded in the catheter.

Abstract: A method of assisting a manometry procedure includes recording, by a processor, a plurality of pressure measurements taken by a catheter inserted within a gastrointestinal tract of a patient, determining, by the processor, a pressure pattern based on the plurality of pressure measurements, and determining whether the determined pressure pattern is an acceptable pressure pattern or an unacceptable pressure pattern.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, systems for enabling physical retail stores and other facilities to implement automated-checkout techniques for the purchase of items that are priced per unit weight. For example, the described systems may enable a facility to implement technology where users are able to remove items from inventory locations, where the inventory locations include weight sensors detecting the weights of the items that were removed. The system then determines the prices based on the weights and charges the users for the prices of the items without performing manual checkout of the items. The price of an item is determined based on the weight of the item and the price per unit weight of the item. The systems described herein thus enable customized retail facilities, as opposed to a retail facility that allows automated-checkout only for prepackaged-type or otherwise non-customizable merchandise.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, systems for enabling physical retail stores and other facilities to implement automated-checkout techniques for the purchase of items that are priced per unit weight. For example, the described systems may enable a facility to implement technology where users are able to remove items from inventory locations, place the items on weight sensors, and then be charged for the prices of the items without performing manual checkout of the items. The price of an item is determined based at least in part on the identifier of the item and the price per unit weight of the item. The systems described herein thus enable customized retail facilities, as opposed to a retail facility that allows automated-checkout only for prepackaged-type or otherwise non-customizable merchandise.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to generate a base digital file for a garment and a custom digital file for the garment, which may be used in garment production. For example, a system may receive information providing various specifications for manufacturing a garment, generate a base digital file for the garment, receive a request to transform the garment from a first garment size to a second garment size, and then generate a custom digital file for the garment by applying custom user body measurements to the base digital file or by applying a grading scale.

Abstract: Some embodiments provide systems, assemblies, and methods of analyzing patient anatomy, including providing an analysis of a patient's spine, and also analyzing the biomechanical effects of implants. In some embodiments, the systems, assemblies, and/or methods can include obtaining initial patient data, acquiring spinal alignment and contour information, acquiring flexibility and/or biomechanical information, registering patient anatomical landmarks of interest relative to fiducial markers, analyzing databases of measurements and patient data to predict postoperative patient outcomes. Further, in some embodiments, the systems, assemblies, and/or methods can assess localized anatomical features of the patient, and obtain anatomical region data. In some embodiments, the systems, assemblies, and/or methods can also analyze the localized anatomy and therapeutic device location and contouring.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided to customize a base digital file for a garment according to a user's body measurements and generate a custom digital file for the garment, which may be used in garment production. For example, a system may receive a request to generate a custom-fit garment, customization options, and information regarding a customer's body measurements, retrieve a base digital file for the garment, identify points and edges in the base digital file of the garment, adjust the points and edges according to defined equations that take into account the user's body measurements, generate a custom digital file for the garment, and display a visual representation of the customized garment.

Abstract: Provided are methods of assessing activity of a promoter region. The methods include culturing a cell including a nucleic acid, the nucleic acid including a region that encodes an enzyme donor (ED) operably coupled to a promoter region, under conditions in which the ED is expressed when the promoter region is active. The methods further include contacting the ED, if expressed, with an enzyme acceptor (EA) to form ED-EA complexes having enzymatic activity. The methods further include detecting the level of the enzymatic activity to assess activity of the promoter region. Activity of the promoter region may be indicative, and therefore may be used to assess, the activity of a cellular signaling pathway of interest and/or of endogenous or exogenous (e.g., introduced) transcription factors of interest. Cells, compositions, and kits that find use, e.g., in practicing the methods of the present disclosure, are also provided.
