  • Patent number: 11947782
    Abstract: In some embodiments, a multifunction device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface creates a plurality of workspace views. A respective workspace view is configured to contain content assigned by a user to the respective workspace view. The content includes application windows. The device displays a first workspace view in the plurality of workspace views on the display without displaying other workspace views in the plurality of workspace views and detects a first multifinger gesture on the touch-sensitive surface. In response to detecting the first multifinger gesture on the touch-sensitive surface, the device replaces display of the first workspace view with concurrent display of the plurality of workspace views.

  • Publication number: 20240068914
    Abstract: Methods, apparatuses, and systems associated with aerosol collection devices (such as, but not limited to, breath-aerosol collector devices, breathalyzers) are provided. An example aerosol collection device includes a sample transfer adapter configured to receive a sample and a device body connected to the sample transfer adapter. In some examples, the device body defines a flow channel that guides the sample to a filter component, and the filter component contains a buffer solution.

  • Patent number: 11749476
    Abstract: An electrical unit may include a current controller including an electrical regulator, a control circuit connected to a first input of the electrical regulator, a timer connected to a second input of the electrical regulator, and/or a turn-off circuit including a turn-off switch. The current controller may be configured to provide a first output signal in a first mode and a second output signal in a second mode. The current controller may be configured to transition from the first mode to the second mode based on a timer output of the timer. An electrical system may include an electrical unit and or a switch connected to the electrical unit. The switch may include a coil. The electrical unit may be configured to provide the first output signal to the coil in the first mode and provide the second output signal to the coil in the second mode.
