Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention are directed to devices, systems, and methods for measuring values obtained from one or more sensors installed on a player's tennis racket and/or worn on the player's body, and using those values to calculate various parameters, such as the physical position and motion of the tennis racket. Embodiments may translate the parameters and derive one or more occurrences corresponding to phases of a tennis point or drill and then generate real-time audible, visual, and/or haptic coaching prompts and other related commands and signals, for the purpose of improving a player's motor skills. Embodiments may also send and receive messages to/from other embodiments, thereby permitting a player to interact with other players, coaches, or devices, such as ball machines and cameras.

Abstract: In an example, a method includes providing a print agent with chargeable particles in a carrier fluid to a print agent concentration apparatus. The print agent may be passed between a conveyor and an electrode, and a potential applied to cause the chargeable particles to be attracted to the conveyor and to form a concentrated layer of particles on the conveyor. An indicator of particle concentration in the concentrated layer may be measured. It may be determined if the indicator of particle concentration meets predetermined criteria.

Abstract: A method for referencing a message comprises the steps of receiving selection of an area or object associated with the message on a display, optionally providing an indication that the selection of the area or object has been received, allowing a further message to be formed with a link to the message, wherein the link is associated with the further message responsive to the selection, and causing display of the information associated with the message responsive to selection of a further area or portion.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a mechanism (30) for a lockset (10). The mechanism (30) comprises a latchbolt retractor (22) that is rotationally actuatable. The mechanism (30) comprises a rotationally mounted handle coupler (36). The rotationally mounted handle coupler (36) is rotatable by a rotation of a handle (12) when coupled thereto and comprises an adaptor receiver (46) for receiving any one of a plurality of adaptors (48,52,54). The rotationally mounted handle coupler is configured to engage with at least one of the plurality of adaptors (48,52), but not all of the plurality of adaptors (54), for transmission of the rotation of the handle (12) to a latchbolt retractor actuator (22).

Abstract: In an example, a method includes providing a print agent comprising chargeable particles in a carrier fluid to a print agent concentration apparatus (600). The print agent may be passed between a conveyor (604) and an electrode (602), and a potential applied to cause the chargeable particles to be attracted to the conveyor and to form a concentrated layer of particles on the conveyor. A proportion of the carrier fluid may be separated from the concentrated layer of particles and a thickness of a remaining layer on the conveyor may be measured. It may be determined if the measured thickness of the layer meets predetermined criteria and, if not, an operational parameter of the print agent concentration apparatus may be adjusted.

Abstract: A method for referencing an image comprises the steps of displaying the image on a first display device, receiving selection of at least a portion of the image via the first display device, receiving content, wherein the content is associated with and digitally linked to at least the portion of the image for which selection was received, transmitting the image as part of a message included in a continuous stream of messages from the first display device to a second display device, displaying at least a portion of the message on the second display device as part of the continuous stream of messages, and displaying the content on the second display device and indicating that the content is associated with the specific portion of the image.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions comprising methylnaltrexone or a salt thereof, and compositions and formulations thereof, for oral administration.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include methods and systems for sharing content in a group slideshow. A plurality of devices, including at least one host device and one or more participant devices, executes a client application by which users can save and organize a plurality of content items on a server storage system. The host can select two or more content items for inclusion in a group slideshow session. With each selection, the server automatically transmits participant copies of the content items to participants, and the participants' client applications automatically display the content items. The participants can view and interact with (e.g., zoom in, save, edit) their respective copies of the content items. When the host adds more content items to the group slideshow session, the participants can catch up to see the content item that the host is currently viewing.

Abstract: A method of managing message communication improves computer security, the method comprising the steps of: first selecting or creating a first group wave rule that identifies a subset of a plurality of message actors; first providing the subset of the plurality of message actors with access to a message sidebar, wherein the plurality of message actors communicate with each other in a message channel associated with the sidebar, and an excluded actor of the plurality of message actors is excluded from access to the sidebar; second selecting or creating a second group wave rule that relates to the excluded actor; receiving one or more responsive messages in the sidebar from the subset responsive to the first providing; and second providing the excluded actor with access to the sidebar.

Abstract: A health care provider (HCP) engagement engine is disclosed. The HCP engagement engine facilitates effective communication between pharmaceutical sales representatives (pharma reps) and HCPs by tracking actions performed by pharma reps to sell products to HCPs, analyzing the actions, and eliminating confounding effects due to inbound and outbound activities. Inbound activities include behaviors performed by pharma reps to the HCPs, while outbound activities are taken by HCPs in response to the inbound activities. Reducing confounding allows the pharma reps to have better information about which behaviors best drive HCP engagement.
