Abstract: Bone anchor assemblies are disclosed herein that can provide for improved fixation as compared with traditional bone anchor assemblies. An exemplary assembly can include a bracket or wing that extends down from the receiver member and accommodates one or more auxiliary bone anchors that augment the fixation of the assembly's primary bone anchor. Another exemplary assembly can include a plate that is seated between the receiver member and the rod and accommodates one or more auxiliary bone anchors that augment the fixation of the assembly's primary bone anchor. Another exemplary assembly can include a hook that extends out from the receiver member to hook onto an anatomical structure or another implant to augment the fixation of the assembly's primary bone anchor. Surgical methods using the bone anchor assemblies described herein are also disclosed.

Abstract: An exercise feedback system receives exercise data such as images or video captured by client devices of users performing exercises. The exercise feedback system may access a machine learning model trained using image of a population of users. The images used for training may be labeled, for example, as having proper or improper musculoskeletal form. The exercise feedback system may determine a metrics describing the musculoskeletal form of a user by applying the trained machine learning model to images of the user as input features. The exercise feedback system may generate feedback for a certain exercise using the metrics based on output predictions of the model. The feedback can be provided to a client device of the user or a physical therapist for presentation.

Abstract: An exercise feedback system receives exercise data captured by client devices of users performing musculoskeletal exercises. The exercise feedback system may provide captured images to a client device of a physical trainer (PT) who remotely provides feedback on the users' exercise performances, for example, by labeling images as indicative of proper or improper musculoskeletal form. A PT may track multiple users using a central feed, which includes content displayed in an order based on ranking of users by a model. Additionally, the exercise feedback system may provide an augmented reality (AR) environment. For instance, an AR graphic indicating a target musculoskeletal form for an exercise is overlaid on a video feed displayed by a client device. Responsive to detecting that a user's form is aligned to the AR graphic, the exercise feedback system may notify the user and trigger the start of the exercise.

Abstract: A system and method for providing wireless service includes a user device and a service provider. The service provider communicates the advertisement to the user device. The user device has a display control module that generates a first screen display at the user device comprising the advertisement and a lockout module that locks at least some device functions. The user device includes a user interface that interacts with the advertisement on the first screen display and allows access to the data or voice function. The service provider may provide a wireless service plan having a rate based upon receiving advertisements and interacting with the advertisements.

Abstract: A washer tossing game for players to score the tossing of projectiles, including a storage container comprised of plural receiving boxes at least two of which are positioned in juxtaposed positions each box having a receiver base for receiving a removable center section, the removable center section being adapted to receive plural tossed projectiles. Alternatively, the game may include beveled center sections which are received by the receiver bases. Optionally, the game can include alternative center sections, allowing the game to be adapted to varying skill levels. In addition, the game may optionally include additional features including visual highlights, protective sidewall curbing and impact resistant lining to protect the boxes from the impact of the thrown projectiles. A carrying case and a handle may also be provided allowing the game to be easily transported.

Abstract: A method for providing information to a customer who is requesting a synthesized oligonucleotide, peptide, peptide nucleic acid, polysaccharide or antibody (collectively “strands”). The capabilities of one or more suppliers are stored and automatically searched for capabilities to synthesize the requested strand. A list of the suppliers with the required capabilities is generated along with the price of the strand. The invention also encompasses an apparatus for providing information to remote users regarding which suppliers can supply a desired strand. The apparatus has a database and a server which allows the remote user to access the capabilities of one or more suppliers for synthesizing a strand.
