  • Patent number: 12227879
    Abstract: A method for preparing a monodomain liquid crystal elastomer smart fiber incudes: during cross-linking process of the liquid crystal elastomer, drawing of liquid crystal elastomer fibers with uniform diameter from a polymer solution when the viscosity of the cross-linked polymer solution increases to a point where filaments can be drawn; heating by an infrared lamp to form filamentous liquid crystal elastomer fiber; natural air drying to remove excess solvent in the fiber; and stretching and collection of the fiber, followed by placement of the fiber, whereby the monodomain liquid crystal elastomer smart fiber is obtained.

  • Publication number: 20190213998
    Abstract: The embodiments of the present invention provide a method for processing data visualization information, the method includes: analyzing whether a input information received is recognized; converting the input information that can be recognized into media information with a specified presentation form; determining, based on confirmation information of the media information, whether the input information is recognized correctly. When the input information is recognized correctly, determining based on a recognition result of the input information, a set of keywords. Determining, based on the set of keywords, an interactive instruction corresponding to the recognition result, and then executing the interactive instruction. By implementing the method of the embodiments of the present invention, the interaction between the user and the data display can be improved in the data visualization scenario, and the monotony of the current data visualization interaction mode can be broken up.
