Abstract: Methods and systems for gesture-based control of a device are described. A virtual gesture-space is determined in a received input frame. The virtual gesture-space is associated with a primary user from a ranked user list of users. The received input frame is processed in only the virtual gesture-space, to detect and track a hand. Using a hand bounding box generated by detecting and tracking the hand, gesture classification is performed to determine a gesture input associated with the hand. A command input associated with the determined gesture input is processed. The device may be a smart television, a smart phone, a tablet, etc.

Therefore, a new interaction mode is provided.

Abstract: Disclosed is a copper-niobium alloy for a medical biopsy puncture needle. A needle core and/or needle tube of the puncture needle are/is made of the copper-niobium alloy. The copper-chromium alloy includes the following components by mass: 5?Nb?15 and the balance of Cu. A copper alloy with designed components is obtained by combining a diamagnetic material Cu with paramagnetic Nb, and compared with existing medical stainless steel and titanium alloy, the copper alloy has greatly reduced magnetic susceptibility, and specifically, the artifact area and volume are also significantly reduced. In addition, the blank of use of the copper alloy in medical biopsy paracentesis is filled.

Abstract: A data transmission method includes receiving, by an optical line terminal (OLT) from an optical network unit (ONU), uplink burst data that includes a synchronization data block and a payload, where the synchronization data block includes first synchronization data, wherein the first synchronization data includes a first preamble and an ONU identifier, and a first bandwidth occupied by the first frequency distribution of the first synchronization data is narrower than a second bandwidth occupied by the second frequency distribution of the payload, and obtaining, by the OLT from the first synchronization data, the ONU identifier.

Abstract: A shopping cart's tracking system determines a first baseline location of the shopping cart at a first timestamp with a wireless device located on the shopping cart detecting one or more external wireless devices (e.g., RFID tags) in the indoor environment. The shopping cart's tracking system receives wheel motion data from one or more wheel sensors coupled to one or more wheels of the shopping cart, wherein the wheel motion data describes rotation of the one or more wheels. The shopping cart's tracking system calculates a translation traveled by the shopping cart from the first baseline location based on the wheel motion data. The shopping cart's tracking system determines an estimated location of the shopping cart at a second timestamp based on the first baseline location and the translation. With the estimated location, the shopping cart can update a map with the estimated location of the shopping cart.

Abstract: A shopping cart's tracking system receives wheel motion data from a plurality of wheel sensors coupled to a plurality of wheels of the shopping cart, wherein the wheel motion data describes rotation of the plurality of wheels and orientation of the plurality of wheels. The tracking system predicts an estimated location of the shopping cart by applying a machine-learning location model to the wheel motion data. The machine-learning location model is trained with training examples that are generated by: receiving prior wheel motion data from the plurality of wheel sensors, partitioning the prior wheel motion data into a plurality of segments using a time window, receiving one or more baseline locations at one or more prior timestamps, and generating one or more training examples, each training example comprising a segment of prior wheel motion data and a baseline location with a timestamp overlapping the segment.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to genetically modified non-human animals that express a human or chimeric (e.g., humanized) IL1B and/or IL1A, and methods of use thereof.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a head-mounted display device, comprising a device body, a front cover and a remote controller, wherein one end of the device body is a display end, the front cover is disposed on the device body and is opposite to the display end, and he front cover and the display end enable a display to be inserted therebetween when in use; and wherein the front cover is provided with a through hole opposite to the display end, in which the remote controller can be received and fixed. One technical effect of the present disclosure is that the remote controller herein is easy to store and can be carried integrally with the device body.
