Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a novel technique for anatomically orientating a removed tissue specimen with the margins of the tissue from which it has been removed. An example process of marking the margins of the excised surgical specimen and the anatomically adjacent in vivo margins can be implemented by a surgeon at the time of removal of the surgical specimen. After removing the surgical specimen from its adjacent tissue, a surgical cavity is generated. Thereafter, locations around the surface margins of the specimen and appropriate locations on the margins of the surgical cavity are marked with one or more pairs of markers (SpM and IVM respectively) with matching identities.

Abstract: This disclosure teaches a system and method for monitoring an extracorporeal blood circuit of a patient and identifying a needle dislodgement. The method includes identifying a potential needle dislodgement event based on changes in pressure of the extracorporeal blood circuit, searching for a heart rate of a patient by analyzing an optical backscatter signal from an optical sensor attached to the extracorporeal blood circuit or by analyzing a pressure signal representative of the pressure in the extracorporeal blood circuit, and verifying the potential needle dislodgement event is a needle dislodgement based on the absence of the heart rate.

Abstract: A method for generating in semiconductor hardware a dot product of two floating-point vectors. The method accesses the elements of the two vectors and performs a multiply in hardware. Before performing the multiply, the exponents of the elements can be checked to determine if the result would exceed the range of the fixed-point accumulator and the multiplication of the elements skipped if exceeded. The elements passing the optional check are multiplied. The resulting product is converted to a fixed-point number and summed with an accumulator. The dot product hardware can be part of an integrated semiconductor implementation of a neural network.

Abstract: Systems and techniques are described for device interoperability for extended reality (XR). An apparatus, such as a mobile handset, runs a software application and uses the software application to generate first content to be displayed using a first display of the apparatus. The apparatus causes the first content to be displayed using the first display of the apparatus. The apparatus uses the software application to generate second content that is based on the first content, that is distinct from the first content, and that is to be displayed using a second display of a head-mounted apparatus. The apparatus causes the second content to be displayed using the second display of the head-mounted apparatus at least in part by sending the second content to the head-mounted apparatus. In some cases, the apparatus and the head-mounted apparatus are both associated with the same user, and are of different device types.
