Abstract: Cable assemblies for providing electrical communication between hinged sections of an electronic device are described. The cable assemblies can include a cover that covers one or more cables that run through a hinge region of the electronic device. The cable and cover can be drawn over a mandrel of the hinge region. The cover and the portions of the mandrel can be visible to a user at the hinge region of the electronic device. The cover can be sufficiently rigid to guide a path of the cable and protect the cable from bending beyond a prescribed angle during rotation of the electronic device at the hinge region. The cover can also be sufficiently rigid to prevent ceasing or folding of the cover and the cable during rotation of the electronic device at the hinge region.

Abstract: Systems and methods of monitoring inventory of a product storage facility include an image capture device configured to move about the product storage areas of the product storage facility and capture images of the product storage areas from various angles. A computing device coupled to the image capture device obtains the images of the product storage areas captured by the image capture device and processes the obtained images of the product storage areas to detect individual products captured in the obtained images. Based on detection of the individual products captured in the images, the computing device analyzes each of the obtained images to detect one or more adjacent product storage structures (shelves, pallets, etc.) and identifies and selects a single image that fully shows a product storage structure of interest and fully shows each of the products stored on the product storage structure of interest.

Abstract: Support systems and stands for electronic devices include tilt hinges, lift arms, and their component parts. Some tilt hinges include assemblies for guiding and retaining bars or protrusions into preferred positioning within receiver openings to unify the parts, particularly as they move, and to reduce wobble or slop in the joints. Lift arms provide simplified and low-cost guidance and counterbalance mechanisms for controlling movement of the electronic device relative to the base of a stand. In some cases, the lift arms have sheaths to help protect or cover mechanisms while allowing additional space for the mechanisms within the lift arm. Other interconnection systems hide and protect a connector interface between the stand and the electronic device within a housing until unlocked and the connector is moved into an exposed position. These systems improve efficiency, comfort, ergonomics, accessibility, and user satisfaction of the electronic devices and their supports.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed to antibodies binding to AGR2 and cancer cells that express or overexpress AGR2, and methods for use thereof.

Abstract: An electronic device has a housing that forms an exterior surface of the electronic device. An array of actuators is coupled to the housing and is operable to move the housing in order to produce sound waves and/or haptic output via the exterior surface. In this way, less space is consumed by acoustic and haptic devices as compared to similar conventional devices, thereby allowing for thinner electronic devices and/or room for other components within the housing. The actuators may be operable to move different regions of the housing to produce sound waves and/or haptic output within different frequency ranges.

Abstract: A method of forming a weld joint is provided. A first component having a base portion and a flange extending from the base portion is provided. A second component is provided. The second component and the flange are brought into abutment and a load is applied to the flange via the second component. The flange is biased against the second component by a reaction of the first component to the load. One of the first and the second components is vibrated to form a weld joint between at least a part of the second component and at least a part of the flange.

Abstract: Accessory devices for portable electronic devices are described. An exemplary accessory device can include a first segment coupled to a second segment via a first hinge assembly. The accessory can include a third segment coupled to the second segment via a second hinge assembly such that the second segment is positioned between the first and third segments. The accessory device can be arranged between a closed configuration and a configuration of a stand that supports the portable electronic device at a viewing angle. At the support configuration, the second segment can be at an acute angle relative to the first segment to shift the center of gravity of the system towards the middle. The third segment can be suspended above the first segment and be inclined outwards. The hinge assemblies of the system can be sufficiently stiff to withstand the weight of the electronic device.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to arbitration for computer memory resources. In some embodiments, an apparatus includes queue circuitry that implements multiple queues configured to queue requests to access a memory bus. Control circuitry may, in response to detecting a first threshold condition associated with the queue circuitry, generate a first snapshot that indicates numbers of requests in respective queues of the multiple queues at a first time. The control circuitry may generate a second snapshot that indicates numbers of requests in respective queues of the multiple queues at a second time that is subsequent to the first time. The control circuitry may arbitrate between requests from the multiple queues to select requests to access the memory bus, where the arbitration is based on snapshots to which requests from the multiple queues belong. Disclosed techniques may approximate age-based scheduling while reducing area and power consumption.

Abstract: A system may perform a search from a source node of a node map to a target node of the node map. Performing the search may include identifying a first path, starting at the source node, that enters a particular constraint region, and identifying a second path, starting at the source node, that does not enter the particular constraint region. The system may select the second path as a path from the source node to the target node, based on identifying that the first path enters the particular constraint region and that the second path does not enter the particular constraint region. The system may cease exploring nodes via the first path when the second path is identified as reaching the target node, and not including a constraint associated with the particular constraint region.

Abstract: A system described herein may provide a technique for the generation of a node map using contraction hierarchy techniques in a manner that accounts for multi-link constraints. Multi-link constraints may include a sequence of two or more links through the node map, and paths that include such multi-link constraints may be associated with an additional cost based on such inclusion. Shortcut links that represent paths through nodes contracted out of the node map may be associated with portions of multi-link constraints. Paths through such shortcut links, where such paths include the remainder of the multi-link constraint, may be considered as including the multi-link constraint, and the cost of such paths may be calculated accordingly. The costs of links and/or paths, including paths that include multi-link constraints, may be used in determining a path from a source node to a target node of the node map.
