Abstract: During operation, a measurement sensor in an electronic device may perform radar measurements associated with an individual, where the radar measurements include information corresponding to a physiological signal of the individual. Then, the electronic device may analyze the radar measurements to extract an amplitude and/or a phase of chest motion on or proximate to an anterior surface and/or a posterior surface of the individual. Moreover, the electronic device may map an amplitude and/or a phase of the chest motion on or proximate to the anterior surface and/or the posterior surface to one or more anatomical locations associated with an organ of the individual. Next, the electronic device may detect whether the type of arrhythmia is present based at least in part on the mapped amplitude and/or the phase.

Abstract: During operation, a computer obtains information specifying a lighting configuration of one or more lights in an environment, where the lighting configuration includes the one or more lights at predefined or predetermined locations in the environment. Then, the computer receives sensor data associated with the environment. Moreover, the computer analyzes the sensor data to determine a context associated with the environment. Then, based at least in part on the lighting configuration, a layout of the environment, and the determined context, the computer automatically determines the dynamic lighting states of the one or more lights, where a dynamic lighting state of a given light includes an intensity and a color of the given light. Next, the computer provides instructions corresponding to the dynamic lighting states to the one or more lights. Note that the dynamic lighting states may be based at least in part on a transferrable profile of the individual.

Abstract: During operation, a computer generates, based at least in part on an initial lighting configuration in an environment and a layout of the environment, and provides a simulation of the environment with the initial lighting configuration. Note that the initial lighting configuration includes one or more lights at predefined or predetermined locations in the environment, dynamic lighting states of the one or more lights, and a dynamic lighting state of the given light includes an intensity and a color of the given light. Moreover, based at least in part on the initial lighting configuration, the layout of the environment, and a determined context of the environment, the computer modifies the initial lighting configuration to obtain an updated lighting configuration. Next, based at least in part on the updated lighting configuration and the layout, the computer generates and selectively provides an updated simulation of the environment with the updated lighting configuration.

Abstract: During operation, an electronic device receives a digital representation of an environment. Then, the electronic device receives input information that specifies a number of lighting devices, types of lighting devices or both. In response, the electronic device provides the input information to a second electronic device. Next, the electronic device receives from the second electronic device design information specifying one or more predefined lighting configurations suitable for use in the environment and that are compatible with the input information. Moreover, the electronic device presents the design information specifying the one or more predefined lighting configurations. Furthermore, the electronic device receives a user selection of a given predefined lighting configuration in the one or more predefined lighting configurations.

Abstract: This invention relates to a filter and a method of making a filter. The filter is made of randomly orientated fibers made from an interpenetrating network formed from at least two polymers which are substantially water soluble in their salt form and which ionically interact in an aqueous solution to form the interpenetrating network. The filter is made without organic solvents, particularly, volatile organic compounds, and the filter is sufficiently water soluble to biodegrade upon disposal. A desired use of the filter is a cigarette filter.
