  • Publication number: 20250220023
    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to group travel between artificial reality (XR) destinations. Currently, users in an artificial reality (XR) experience cannot travel with a group to a specific destination or between destinations (e.g., to and from virtual worlds, levels, applications, etc.). Thus, some implementations assign users within a group in a multiplayer XR experience (e.g., a virtual lobby) a same session identifier. When the users select a destination, some implementations can provide a computing system hosting the destination with the session identifier associated with the users, such that the hosting computing system can ensure that the users travel to the same instance of the destination together. If a user does not already have the destination installed, some implementations can allow the user to acquire access rights to the destination, then travel to the same instance of the destination as the other users.

  • Patent number: 12269664
    Abstract: A container assembly includes a container, a flow channel, and a suction assembly. The container defines a cavity configured to receive a fluid therein. The container includes an interior surface along the cavity and an exterior surface outside of the cavity. The interior surface defines a lower hole, and the exterior surface defines an upper hole that is disposed closer than the lower hole to a top of the container. The flow channel extends from the lower hole to the upper hole and is disposed within a thickness of one or more wall sections of the container. The suction assembly is attached to the lower hole and fluidly connected to the flow channel. The suction assembly includes a strainer disposed within the cavity of the container for suctioning the fluid from the container.

  • Patent number: 9431582
    Abstract: A slim LED package configured to handle large current, having a narrow width, an LED chip mounting area positioned centro-symmetrically within the package, mounting holes positioned equidistantly from the mounting area, wherein multiple packages may be arranged with alternating anode and cathode ends in such a manner that a high-power density radiometric flux line may be created. Some embodiments include current density management areas positioned on one more sides of the LED chip mounting area.

  • Publication number: 20050222215
    Abstract: The present invention concerns the compounds having the formula (I), N-oxides, salt, stereoisomeric forms, racemic mixtures, prodrugs, esters and metabolites thereof, wherein Haryl is an aromatic monocyclic, bicyclic or tricyclic heterocycle having 3 to 14 ring members which contains one or more heteroatom ring members selected from nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur and which may optionally be substituted on (i) one or more carbon atoms by C1-6alkyl, halogen, hydroxy, optionally mono- or disubstituted amino, nitro, cyano, haloC1-6alkyl, carboxyl, C3-7cycloalkyl, optionally mono- or disubstituted aminocarbonyl, methylthio, methylsulfonyl, aryl, (R7a)n-M-R7b, Het1 and Het2; whereby the optional substituents on any amino function are independently selected from R5 and -A-R6; and on (ii) a nitrogen atom if present by hydroxy or -A-R6. It further relates to their use as broadspectrum HIV protease inhibitors, processes for their preparation as well as pharmaceutical compositions and diagnostic kits comprising them.
