Abstract: A method of displaying images forming part of a digital reality stream, the method including, for each image to be displayed in one or more encoder processing devices, generating compressed image data by differentially compressing image data indicative of the image in accordance with system operation and the content of the digital reality stream so that different parts of the image are compressed using a different degree of compression, wirelessly transmitting the compressed image data to a display device using a wireless communications link, and, in one or more decoder processing devices associated with the display device, differentially decompressing the compressed image data to thereby generate image data indicative of the image to be displayed.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to navigating a collection of media items. In accordance with one embodiment, in response to receiving an input, a device displays a first view of a collection of media items, including concurrently displaying a representation of a first time period and a representation of a second time period. In accordance with a determination that a current time is associated with a first recurring temporal event: the representation of the first time period includes a first representative media item and the representation of the second time period includes a second representative media item. In accordance with a determination that the current time is associated with a second recurring temporal event, the representation of the first time period includes a third representative media item and the representation of the second time period includes a fourth representative media item.

Abstract: A method of compressing image data representing one or more images, the method including obtaining pixel data from the image data, the pixel data representing an pixel array within the one or more images, applying a transformation to the pixel data to determine a set of frequency coefficients indicative of frequency coefficients of the pixel array, encoding a selected subset of the set of frequency coefficients, generating an index indicative of the encoded frequency coefficients and generating compressed image data using the encoded frequency coefficients and the index.

Abstract: A shimmy damper for centering a landing gear includes a cap and a housing. The shimmy damper further includes a damper shaft extending from the cap to the housing. The shimmy damper further includes a plurality of magnets configured to exert an opposing force on the cap and the housing via the damper shaft, providing a centering mechanism of the damper shaft within the housing. This centering action in turn provides for the centering of the landing gear during flight.
