Abstract: Apparatuses, methods, systems, and program products are disclosed to determine when a portable electronic device is moved within an enclosed space. A processor and memory may control a sensor may store code executable by the processor to measure a parameter at an inlet of the computing device. The parameter may include an airflow rate, an air temperature at the inlet, and/or a current supply to a fan of the computing device. The processor may execute code to determine when the parameter at the inlet reaches a threshold. When the processor determines that the measured parameter has reached the threshold, a signal from the sensor to the processor and/or from the processor to an operator may be sent, indicating that the threshold has been reached.

Abstract: A seat assembly comprises a seat adjuster; and a seat including: a seat bottom connectable to a track assembly; a seatback pivotably connected to the seat bottom; a calf rest pivotably connected to the seat bottom; and a headrest pivotably connected to the seatback. The seat adjuster includes one or more motors and is connected to the seat to adjust the seat to a first seat position and to a second seat position via adjusting the seatback, the calf rest, and the headrest about a plurality of pivot axes.

Abstract: A simulator based training curriculum uses validated metrics for a robotic-assisted radical prostatectomy that appropriately characterize the procedure to be trained. The simulation-based training gives trainees precise feedback on their performance with specific recommendations for improvement, proximate to the performance. Trainees are also provided a quantitative performance benchmark to work toward that provides a valid representation of their skill level in a clinically important performance characteristic or task. The trainee must demonstrate the ability to meet specific performance benchmarks before they are permitted to progress in their training program.

Abstract: A laparoscopic bag, wherein the laparoscopic bag comprises one opening which is in a top portion, and a body portion, wherein the laparoscopic bag comprises an inner layer which is waterproof, a middle layer which is resistant to morcellation, and an outer layer which is waterproof.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of laparoscopic surgery, and a kit which could be used in laparoscopic and robotic surgery.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a two- or dual-sided thermal print switch is provided to direct printing of received print data on one or both sides of thermal media such as a receipt, document, or label. In a further embodiment, a dual-sided thermal print switch is provided to select custom or predefined data for printing on one or both sides of thermal media with or without received print data. Dual-sided print switch operation may be defined using commands implemented with, for example, setup configuration settings in hardware or software, escape sequences, real-time printer commands, and the like.

Abstract: A dual-sided direct thermal printer and methods of operation thereof are provided. In one embodiment, a dual-sided direct thermal printer comprising a first thermal print head on a first side of a media feed path, and a second thermal print head on a second side of the media feed path opposite the first side is provided, wherein the dual-sided direct thermal printer is adapted to apportion received data into a first data portion for printing by the first thermal print head and a second data portion for printing by the second thermal print head.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a method of operating a dual-sided direct thermal printer comprising a first thermal print head on a first side of a media feed path and a second thermal print head on a second side of the media feed path opposite the first side is provided, wherein the method comprises receiving a select thermal printing mode command and operating the dual-sided direct thermal printer according to the received select thermal printing mode command.

Abstract: A method of optimizing a compiled control, for example a user interface control, includes generating a source code document including a test instruction statement that accesses an element of the control. The source code is then compiled, and one or more matched instructions in the compiled document are identified that correspond to the test instruction statement. A pattern is then formed using the one or more matched instructions.

Abstract: A dual-sided imaging direct thermal printer includes a switch enabling activation and deactivation of a dual-sided printing function. The printer is configured to allow printing on both sides of a receipt or other sheet media moving along a feed path through the printer and comprises a print head on each side of the media feed path. An opposing platen is disposed on each side of the feed path across from an associated print head. A described switch enables dual-sided printer benefits with simplex-mode software.

Abstract: A dual-sided imaging direct thermal recording material comprises an opaque substrate, and temperature sensitive coatings for direct thermal printing in different colors on opposite sides of the substrate. Recording material such as a paper transaction receipt on which direct thermal printing on the front side is in one color and direct thermal printing on the reverse side is in a different color is disclosed.
