Abstract: An optical element driving mechanism is provided and includes a fixed assembly, a movable assembly, a driving assembly and a stopping assembly. The fixed assembly has a main axis. The movable assembly is configured to connect an optical element, and the movable assembly is movable relative to the fixed assembly. The driving assembly is configured to drive the movable assembly to move relative to the fixed assembly. The stopping assembly is configured to limit the movement of the movable assembly relative to the fixed assembly within a range of motion.

Abstract: A generator device includes a fluid confluent guide device including guiding plates and a housing having an inlet, a curved member, and a transverse channel as an outlet; and a wheel including two spaced rims having teeth, and blades between the rims. The electric turbine generator converts the energy of flowing water (e.g., sea water) or wind into useful forms of power. Fluid entering a space between the two adjacent guiding plates is divided into rotating fluid portions. The fluid strikes the blades in an optimum angle. The wheel without axle works well with decreased fluid velocity. The electricity generating devices are driven by the wheel. Total electricity generation is borne by the electricity generating devices. A single electricity generating device has a relatively small weight. This can lower the risk of installation. Locations having a lower fluid velocity can be selected for installing the electric turbine generator.

Abstract: A fluid flow metering device and a method thereof are provided. The fluid flow metering device includes a fluid flow detector, a memory, a micro controller and a power generator. The fluid flow detector is disposed in a supply tube of a fluid flow provider. When the fluid flows in the supply tube, the power generator generates a supplying power through flow of the fluid, and provides the supplying power to the fluid flow detector, the memory and the micro controller. When the fluid flow detector detects the flow of the fluid, the fluid flow detector detects the flow of the fluid outputted from the supply tube to derive a detecting value. The micro controller receives the detecting value and writes the detecting value into the memory, or the micro controller converts the detecting value into a flow value and writes the flow value into the memory.

Abstract: A chip, including a processing unit, a non-volatile memory, a bus unit, and a capture unit, is provided. The processing unit is configured to execute a process. The capture unit is coupled to the non-volatile memory, the processing unit, and the bus unit, and captures a process execution history of the process from the bus unit and stores the process execution history in the non-volatile memory.

Abstract: The medication usage monitoring and reminding device and method enables a user to easily monitor usage of medications by weighing the medications using a weighing component, a processing component and an I/O component. Additionally, the device is able to remind a user regarding the medications if the medication has not been timely taken. The device is also able to obtain information regarding medications such as possible conflicts, updates and other information. The device is able to be used for food/drink information or dietary information.

Abstract: A transparent display apparatus is provided. The display apparatus includes a plurality of white sub-pixels and a plurality of color sub-pixels that are mixedly arranged. The display apparatus also includes a control module for controlling the white sub-pixels and the color sub-pixels. When the display apparatus is in a transparent mode, the control module reduces or stops light emitting from the color sub-pixels and allows at least a part of ambient light behind the white sub-pixels to emit from the white sub-pixels to achieve the see-through effect. When the display apparatus is in a display mode, the control module adjusts at least one of the white or color sub-pixels to ensure that light from the white sub-pixels is far less than light from the color sub-pixels.

Abstract: A pixel structure of transparent LCD panel includes a pixel, a pixel electrode and liquid crystal molecules. The pixel consists of a first alignment region and a second alignment region having different aligning directions. The pixel electrode includes a main electrode disposed between the first alignment region and the second alignment region, and branch electrodes. The main electrode is a bar-shaped electrode. A portion of the branch electrodes are connected to one side of the main electrode and extending along a first direction to the first alignment region, another portion of the branch electrodes are connected to the other side of the main electrode and extending along a second direction to the second alignment region. The first direction and the second direction are opposite and parallel, the an included angle between the first direction and the gate line is between 45±10 degrees.

Abstract: A camera module of image processing and a method for integrating the camera module with a host are described. The camera module has a display control interface, an image sensor, and a camera control circuit. The display control interface is used to control at least one display module. The image sensor is used to capture image and provide image data signals. The camera control circuit is used to control the camera module. The camera module bypasses the display data signals of a host to display control modules according to a bypass signal. The camera module also performs image processing according to the bypass signal and a command set.

Abstract: A screwdriver with slip-resistant blade includes a handle being provided on an outer surface with a plurality of parallel and axially extended ribs, and a blade having a proximal end connected to the handle and a distal end formed into an operating tip. Theblade is formed on an outer surface at a predetermined position with a coarse and highly frictional area as a slip-resistant section. When the screwdriver is used to loosena screw, the user may grip at the slip-resistant section of the blade to efficiently turn the screw with shortened time and less effort after the screw has been primarily turned and loosened by turning the handle of the screwdriver.
