Abstract: A cell mechanical stimulating device for applying to at least one cell sample is provided. The device includes a base unit, at least one moving component and at least one magnetic component. The base unit includes a base body and a separating lid. The base body includes at least one culturing chamber and a bottom chamber surface. The cell sample is disposed in the culturing chamber, and the separating lid encloses the culturing chamber. The magnetic component drives the moving component to shift between a pressurizing position and a non-pressurizing position. At the pressurizing position, the moving component moves toward the bottom chamber surface and pressurizes the cell sample. At the non-pressurizing position, the moving component moves toward the separating lid and the pressure on the cell sample is removed. The cell sample is pressurized by the magnetic component driving the moving component.

Abstract: A mobile terminal able to autonomously recognize when a user requires the mobile terminal to function as a mirror includes a housing, a screen with one-way see-through glass, a gravity sensor, a distance sensor, a front camera, a processor, and a storage device. At least two kinds of information are being collected, namely an orientation of the mobile terminal collected by the gravity sensor and a distance between a face and the screen collected by the distance sensor. Other information as to a facial expression and hand actions can also be collected by the front camera. The information is analyzed and a determination is made as to whether the user wishes to look in a mirror, and the screen will be controlled to be dark and shut down for the mirror function.

Abstract: A head mounted display (HMD) device includes a left-eye display panel and a right-eye display panel. Each of the left-eye and right-eye display panels includes a proximate edge, a distal edge, an active display area having a proximate border and a distal border. A distance between the proximate border and the proximate edge is less than a distance between the distal border and the distal edge. For each display panel, a first border region defined by the distal edge and the distal border contains circuitry for operating pixels of the active display area, whereas a second border region defined by the proximate edge and the proximate border is devoid of circuitry.

Abstract: A thin-film transistor layer, an organic light-emitting diode layer, and other layers may be used in forming an array of pixels on a substrate in a display. Vias may be formed through one or more layers of the display such as the substrate layer to form vertical signal paths. The vertical signal paths may convey signals between display driver circuitry underneath the display and the pixels. The vias may pass through a polymer layer and may contact pads formed within openings in the substrate. Vias may pass through a glass support layer. Metal traces may be formed in the thin-film transistor layer to create signal paths such as data lines and gate lines. Portions of the metal traces may form vias through a polymer layer such as a substrate layer or a polymer layer that has been formed on top of the substrate layer.

Abstract: A pixel driving technique for an organic light emitting diode (OLED) display. A frame of image data is shifted into an OLED panel and activated for global illumination. During the time period of global illumination for the frame of image data, pixel data for a next frame of image data is buffered in a partial memory. After the period of global illumination for the frame of image data, the next frame of image data being buffered in the partial memory is read out of partial memory to the OLED panel and updates the previous frame of pixel data with the new pixel data.

Abstract: A display may have an array of organic light-emitting diodes that form an active area on a flexible substrate. Metal traces may extend between the active area and an inactive area of the flexible substrate. Display driver circuitry such as a display driver integrated circuit may be attached to a flexible printed circuit that is attached to the flexible substrate in the inactive area. The metal traces may extend across a bend region in the flexible substrate. The flexible substrate may be bent in the bend region. The flexible substrate may be locally thinned in the bend region. A neutral stress plane adjustment layer may cover the metal traces in the bend region. The neutral stress plane adjustment layer may include polymer layers such as an encapsulation layer, a pixel definition layer, a planarization layer, and a layer that covers a pixel definition layer and planarization layer.

Abstract: Program code, such the program code of an application program, can be modified to permit the program code to execute in a multi-tenant execution environment. For example, program code might be modified at compile time, run time, or at another time, in order to enable the program code to properly operate in an execution environment in which applications might be simultaneously executed in process by multiple tenants. Program code might also be modified at run time to enable the program code to execute in a distributed fashion in a distributed computing environment. For example, portions of the program code might be configured at run time to execute in different instances of an execution environment. The program code might be modified at run time to enable the program code to properly execute in multiple instances of the execution environment.
