  • Patent number: 11962878
    Abstract: An electronic device is provided, including a main body and a camera module. The camera module has a frame, a lens unit disposed in the frame, a guiding member, and a hinge. The guiding member is affixed to the main body and has a rail and a spring sheet. The hinge pivotally connects to the frame and the guiding member. When the camera module is in the retracted position, the camera module is hidden in a recess of the main body. When the camera module slides out of the recess from the retracted position along the rail into the operational position, the spring sheet is pressed by the hinge to increase the friction between the hinge and the guiding member.

  • Patent number: 11919170
    Abstract: The present teaching relates to a method and system for path planning. Information of a current pose of a robotic arm having a plurality of operable segments is obtained. The information includes a plurality of values, each of which corresponds to an angle formed between consecutive operable segments of the robotic arm. A desired pose where the robotic arm needs to reach is also obtained. An angle step-value is computed for the current pose of the robotic arm based on a function of a distance between the current pose and the desired pose, wherein the angle step value is to be used to determine a plurality of candidate next poses of the plurality of operable segments. One or more of candidate next poses is selected based on at least one criterion, and a trajectory is determined from the current pose to the desired pose based on the selected next poses.

  • Publication number: 20220265708
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to compositions and methods for enhancing T cell response and/or CAR cell expansion in vivo and/or in vitro. For example, a cell may comprise a first chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) and a second CAR, wherein a binding domain of the first CAR binds a first antigen, and a binding domain of the second CAR binds a second antigen. The first antigen is different from the second antigen. In embodiments, the first CAR may recognize a surface molecule of a blood cell.
