Abstract: Provided are tissue webs, and products produced therefrom, that are generally durable, flexible and have improved cross-machine direction (CD) properties, such as CD tensile energy absorption (CD TEA), CD stretch and CD modulus. The inventive tissue products generally comprise multiple tissue plies, such as two or more plies, that have been prepared by through-air drying and more preferably by through-air drying without creping. Moreover, the plies may be produced in a through-air drying process that utilizes a transfer fabric positioned between the forming fabric and the through-air drying fabric where the transfer fabric imparts the nascent web with a high degree of CD strain.

Abstract: A protocol layer on top of the Bluetooth low energy (BLE) system of paired devices to provide transmission that allows arbitrary sizes of data to be sent. To guarantee transmissions, the transmissions may be validated and, if required, resent to replace data that was lost or corrupted. The protocol layer also supports Remote Procedure Calls to allow functions on either of two connected devices to be executed on one device on behalf of the other. A further protocol layer also allows high priority, short messages to temporarily interrupt the transmission of low priority, long messages.

Abstract: A method for a processor to analyze motion data includes receiving times series of raw motion data, hereafter the raw data streams, and generating sparse data streams based on the raw data streams. The method also includes performing a raw data action identification to detect the action in a window of time, which includes modifying one or more first thresholds based on the user information and comparing one or more of the raw data streams in the window with one or more modified first thresholds. The method further includes determining a score of the detected action and providing a visualized feedback to the user based on the score.

Abstract: A motion capture suit includes a top or pants, a sensor socket fixed to a portion of the top or the pants about a limb, and a sensor inserted in the sensor socket. The sensor includes a measurement device having measurement axes that are offset by about 45 degrees from a long axis of the limb.

Abstract: A protocol layer on top of the Bluetooth low energy (BLE) system of paired devices (110, 150) to provide transmission that allows arbitrary sizes of data to be sent. To guarantee transmissions, the transmissions may be validated (324) and, if required, resent to replace data that was lost or corrupted. The protocol layer also supports Remote Procedure Calls to allow functions on either of two connected devices (110, 150) to be executed on one device on behalf of the other. A further protocol layer also allows high priority, short messages (510) to temporarily interrupt the transmission of low priority, long messages (520, 530).

Abstract: A method of producing support pillars for use in the fabrication of evacuated glass panels and, in particular, for use in the fabrication of evacuated glazing. The method comprises the steps of: (a) forming in opposite surfaces (15, 16) of a metal blank (10) periodically spaced pairs of aligned linearly extending indentations (13, 14 and 17, 18) and, as a consequence, creating regions of weakness (23) that extend between troughs (24) of the respective pairs of indentations, and (b) parting individual support pillars (28) from the metal blank (in which the indentations are formed) at the respective regions (23) of weakness.
