  • Patent number: 11973254
    Abstract: An electrochemical cell and battery system including cells, each cell including a catholyte, an anolyte, and a separator disposed between the catholyte and anolyte and that is permeable to the at least one ionic species (for example, a metal cation or the hydroxide ion). The catholyte solution includes a ferricyanide, permanganate, manganate, sulfur, and/or polysulfide compound, and the anolyte includes a sulfide and/or polysulfide compound. These electrochemical couples may be embodied in various physical architectures, including static (non-flowing) architectures or in flow battery (flowing) architectures.

  • Patent number: 11164094
    Abstract: A device, method, and non-transitory computer readable storage medium for labelling motion data are provided. The device receives several motion signals, wherein each motion signal includes a motion time message and a motion data group. A motion script includes a plurality of preset motion messages, wherein each preset motion message includes a preset time message and a preset motion. The device performs the following steps for each preset time message: determining a first subset of the motion signals by comparing the motion time messages with the preset time message, calculating a similarity between the motion data group of each motion signal in the first subset and a reference model, determining a second subset of the first subset based on the first similarities, and labelling the motion data group of each motion signal included in the second subset as corresponding to the preset motion corresponding to the preset time message.

  • Publication number: 20210065022
    Abstract: A system for labeling motion data includes a memory and a processor. The memory stores instructions. The processor accesses and executes the instructions to perform the following: generate a motion trajectory passage, which includes an initial posture; access unlabeled motion data; determine whether the unlabeled motion data includes the initial posture; in response to the unlabeled motion data including the initial posture, determine whether the unlabeled motion data matches the motion trajectory passage; and in response to the unlabeled motion data matching the motion trajectory passage, attach a label to the unlabeled motion data.

  • Patent number: 9354712
    Abstract: An intelligent device is configured to provide relevant information related to an image. The intelligent device includes a sensor module, an activation module, an image capture module, an image recognition module, and an information providing module. The sensor module includes a magnetometer and a gyroscope. The magnetometer detects a direction of a gesture relative to the intelligent device. The gyroscope detects at least one angular velocity of the gesture. The activation module determines the gesture according to the direction and the angular velocities, and generates an activating signal according to the gesture determined. The image capture module captures the image according to the activation signal. The image recognition module identifies the image to retrieve relevant information related to the image. The information providing module provides the relevant information.
