Abstract: A Voice-driven control device for a media system includes a housing; a controller; a first communication port to enable communication of instructions between a data processing system and the controller; and a second communication port to enable communication of instructions between a media device and the controller. The controller includes a voice recognition system to recognize human speech and to convert the human speech into a first set of commands and into a second set of commands. The first set of commands provides instructions to the data-processing system to enable voice driven control of a media presentation. The second set of commands provides instructions to the media device to enable voice driven control of a functionality of the media device.

Abstract: A process for determining the status of a living organism. In this process, cellular material which contains a first microtubule, a second microtuble, and a multiplicity of microtubule associated proteins is imaged to determine both the positions of the microtubles and the positions of the microtubule associated proteins located between the microtubules. The pattern of microtubules associated protein attachment is therein correlated with historic phenotypic data to determine whether there is any abnormality in the sample specimen.
