Abstract: In some embodiments, apparatuses and methods are provided herein useful to displaying items for purchase. In some embodiments, there is provided a system for displaying items for purchase from a retailer including a control circuit and a retail application. In some embodiments the control circuit determines inventory items to include in a listing of selectable items for potential purchase; outputs signaling to cause a retail application to display the listing of selectable items; receives an indication of a customer selection; determines subsequent inventory items to include in an updated listing based on at least one of a corresponding dimensional space or a corresponding weight of each of the subsequent inventory items, and a remaining available storage capacity of a delivery container; and outputs subsequent signaling to cause the retail application to display the updated listing.

Abstract: An example device for repairing a tissue is described herein. The device can include a flexible carrier layer, and a support member including a plurality of micro-protrusions extending therefrom. The support member can be at least partially integrated with the flexible carrier layer. Additionally, the flexible carrier layer can be configured to cover at least a portion of the tissue, and the micro-protrusions can be configured to mechanically interface with the tissue.

Abstract: A platform for interactive sports and movement training is disclosed. The platform allows a trainer to: upload a step-by-step training video for a challenge via a trainer user interface for access by a plurality of trainees; receive videos of individual trainees performing the steps of the training video; provide feedback to the trainees regarding how they can improve their performance associated with each of the steps of the training video; and indicate when a trainee can access a next step in the step-by-step training, until all movements have been mastered. The platform allows a user to access a first step of a step-by-step training video via a user interface; upload a video of the user performing the first step; receive feedback, via the user interface, from a trainer; and when the feedback indicates that the user is ready, access a next step of the training video.

Abstract: An example device for repairing a nerve is described herein. The device can include a flexible carrier layer made of a biologic material, and a metallic support member including a plurality of micro-protrusions extending therefrom. The metallic support member can be at least partially integrated with the flexible carrier layer. Additionally, the flexible carrier layer can be configured to cover at least a portion of the nerve, and the micro-protrusions can be configured to attach to a superficial tissue of the nerve.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide a method, system and computer program product for configurable pacing in messaging systems. In an embodiment of the invention, a configurable message pacing method has been provided. The method includes receiving a message directed for placement in a repository of an intermediate messaging system into which messages are placed by message producing applications and from which messages are retrieved by message consuming applications. Thereafter, it can be determined if the placement of the received message into the repository will result in a breach of an associated threshold value for the repository. Consequently, a message pacing action can be triggered responsive to the determination that the placement of the received message into the repository will result in a breach of the associated threshold value for the repository.

Abstract: As the use of facial biometrics expands in the commercial and government sectors, the need to ensure that human facial examiners use proper procedures to compare facial imagery will grow. Human examiners have examined fingerprint images for many years such that fingerprint examination processes and techniques have reached a point of general acceptance for both commercial and governmental use. The growing deployment and acceptance of facial recognition can be enhanced and solidified if new methods can be used to assist in ensuring and recording that proper examination processes were performed during the human examination of facial imagery.

Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for creating personalized media content having multiple content layers in “one-click” fashion by selecting a background media template or by using an end-user media composition tool to create or modify a template. For example, the personalized media content can include at least two separate layers, the data of each being stored independently of one another. The two layers may include a background layer including at least one background character and an intermediate layer including an individualized three-dimensional (3D) head model, alignment information, and lighting information. The personalized media content can be displayed by overlaying the background layer using the alignment intermediate layer using the alignment information and the lighting information. In certain examples, template data associated with the background media is created and subsequently used on multiple occasions in generating personalized media content with various 3D head models.
