Abstract: An electric toothbrush having bristle driven pulsation includes a brush head having a bristle holder and bristle tufts attached to the bristle holder. The bristle tufts and corresponding bristles are disposed at a perpendicular and/or a non-perpendicular angle with respect to a mounting surface of the brush head. The electric toothbrush also includes an electric toothbrush handle removably attached to the brush head. The electric toothbrush handle includes a linear motor configured to drive the bristle holder via a gearing structure coupled to the linear motor and the bristle holder. The linear motor causes the bristle holder to rotate clockwise and counterclockwise at a rotation frequency which exceeds a rotation frequency threshold (e.g., 100 Hz, 120 Hz, etc.). The linear motor also causes the brush head to vibrate in a direction toward and away from a contact surface in synchronization with the rotation of the bristles.

Abstract: A block-based decoder is configured to partition a picture of more than one color component and of a color sampling format, according to which each color component is equally sampled, into blocks using a partitioning scheme in which the picture is equally partitioned with respect to each color component. A first color component is decoded in units of the blocks with selecting, for each of intra-predicted first color component blocks, one out of a first set of intra-prediction modes. The first set comprises matrix-based intra prediction modes according to each of which a block inner is predicted by deriving a sample value vector out of neighboring reference samples, computing a matrix-vector product between the sample value vector and a prediction matrix associated with the respective matrix-based intra prediction mode to obtain a prediction vector, and predicting samples in the block inner on the basis of the prediction vector.

The spring unit has at least a first rod-like spring element with a height and a width and extending along a longitudinal extension direction of the handle. A width-to-height ratio of the at least first rod-like spring element is from 1.0 to 3.33.

Abstract: Techniques for block wise encoding and decoding may be applied to encoders, decoders, and methods for encoding or decoding and include assigning, based on a first signalization in the data stream, the predetermined block to the first set or the second set, sorting the assigned set of intra-prediction modes according to intra-prediction modes used for neighboring blocks, neighboring the predetermined block, to obtain a list of intra prediction modes, deriving, for the predetermined block, from the data stream, an index into the list of intra prediction modes, predicting the predetermined block using an intra prediction mode onto which the index points. The decoder or encoder, if the assigned set is the first set of intra-prediction modes, in sorting the assigned set, uses a second mapping which maps each intra-prediction mode of the second set of prediction modes onto a representative one in the first set of intra-prediction modes.
