Abstract: Techniques of managing design iterations include generating data linking selected snapshot histories with contextual notes within a single presentation environment. A designer may generate a design iteration in a design environment. Once the design iteration is complete, the designer may show a snapshot of the design iteration to a stakeholder. The stakeholder then may provide written contextual notes within the design environment. The computer links the contextual notes to the snapshot and stores the snapshot and contextual notes in a database. When the designer generates a new design iteration from the previous design iteration and the contextual notes, the computer generates a new snapshot and a link to the previous snapshot to form a timeline of snapshots. The designer may then present the snapshots, the timeline, and the contextual notes to the stakeholder as a coherent history of how the design of the mobile app evolved to its present state.

Abstract: A system and method to determine pulse transit time using a handheld device. The method includes generating an electrocardiogram (EKG) for a user of the handheld device. Two portions of the user's body are in contact with two contact points of the handheld device. The method also includes de-noising the EKG to identify a start time when a blood pulse leaves a heart of the user. The method further includes de-noising a plurality of video images of the user to identify a pressure wave indicating an arterial site and a time when the pressure wave appears. Additionally, the method includes determining the PTT based on the de-noised EKG and the de-noised video images.

Abstract: Systems and methods for implementing real-time pixel-based reverse engineering of interface structures are disclosed herein. The system uses the pixels representing widgets and content of a user interface to analyze, interpret, and/or enhance the interface without requiring cooperation from the interface. The system captures pixel data and reverse engineers the composition and structure of the interface from the captured pixel data. Using the reverse engineered interface, generated based on the captured pixel data, the facility can identify and record user interactions with the interface, modify the display of the interface to meet user requirements, preferences, or customization options, or enhance the interface to provide functionality not otherwise available, etc. The system can perform these processes across a variety of interfaces regardless of their underlying implementation and without any modifications to the interface.

Abstract: Transformable furniture is provided, which is a unitary structure which itself transforms between seating and a play space. More specifically, the furniture has first and second frame members which move towards each other to form a couch and away from each other to form a play space, such as a playhouse.
