Abstract: A steerable arm for use in endoscopic surgical procedures. The steerable arm cut from a tube of nitinol to provide flexibility and resilience by the structure into which the tube is cut. Typically, the cut tube comprises a spiralling coil, the loops of which are in contact on one lateral side of the tube and the tube is bent to open apart the loops on the other lateral side. The material which the tube is made of is capable of retaining memory of the bend. This provides a bias for restoring the tube to the bend whenever a force causing the tube to flex is removed.

Abstract: The present application provides a displaying base plate and a displaying device, which relates to the technical field of displaying. The displaying device can ameliorate the problem of screen greening caused by electrostatic charges, thereby improving the effect of displaying. The displaying base plate includes an active area and a non-active area connected to the active area, the non-active area includes an edge region and a first-dam region, and the first-dam region is located between the active area and the edge region; the displaying base plate further includes: a substrate; an anti-static layer disposed on the substrate, wherein the anti-static layer is located at least within the edge region; and a driving unit and a touch unit that are disposed on the substrate, wherein the driving unit is located within the active area.

Abstract: A system and method for virtual clothes fitting based on video augmented reality in a mobile wireless device is disclosed. In an embodiment, a method for virtual cloth-fitting with video augmentation in a mobile wireless device includes receiving a video stream of an upper body of a user; detecting a face in the video stream; detecting a shoulder contour; determining keypoints of the shoulder and neck portions of the video stream of the upper body of the user according to the detected face and the detected shoulder contour; mapping an image of clothes to the video stream of the upper body of the user according to the keypoints; and displaying an augmented video stream of the upper body of the user with the image of the clothes overlaid over a portion of the video stream of the upper body of the user.

Abstract: A method for switching an audio output device includes after a predetermined event is captured on the information output interface, detecting whether a voice interface object representing a voice message is currently displayed on the information output interface. The method further includes detecting whether an external audio output device is currently connected to the mobile electronic apparatus. If it is detected that a voice interface object is currently displayed, and it is not detected that an external audio output device is connected to the mobile electronic apparatus, displaying an interface switching object on the information output interface, to correspondingly switch an audio output device of the mobile electronic apparatus according to an input operation of a user.

Abstract: A device is configured to perform a method for neck and shoulder detection. The method includes receiving an image that includes a face. The method also includes performing a neck localization operation on the image. The neck localization operation is performed using results from a pre-trained regression model. The method further includes performing a shoulder localization operation on the image. The method still further includes estimating a plurality of shoulder and neck keypoints using results of the neck localization operation and the shoulder localization operation.

Abstract: Disclosed are a method, device and system for establishing conversation relation, which relates to the field of internet and. The method comprises the following steps: local terminal recognizes the opposite terminal within a preset range and establishes NFC connection with the opposite terminal, both of local terminal and opposite terminal have NFC module installed and instant messaging application running; when touching is detected, local terminal initiates a NFC request to opposite terminal via NFC connection, obtain opposite terminal user ID and certificate, and sends request information to the server; the server establishes conversation relation between local terminal and opposite terminal according to request information.
