    Abstract: The invention concerns a computer-implemented method for controlling memory resources of an electronic device, said method comprising:
    - setting (35) at least one memory swap size limit (SL), said memory swap limit being lower than a memory swap size defining a maximum size of a part of said memory resources used by said electronic device for swap, called swap memory space; and
    - obtaining (37) a score for each program of a plurality of programs running on said electronic device;
    - terminating (38) an execution of at least one program of said plurality, when a level of free memory resources (FML) is reached, or when said memory swap size limit (SL) is reached and a score associated with said at least one program is equal to or higher than a priority threshold (PT) associated with said reached level of free memory resources and/or said reached memory swap size limit.

    Abstract: A method of operating a miniature projector that comprises: receiving image data to project; generating light beams responsive to the image data; scanning the light beams according to a first pattern from a first edge to an ending edge in the screen to form at least one image, the first pattern being a wave pattern of scan lines such that amplitudes oscillate along a first axis as the beams progressively scan along a second axis, the second axis being substantially perpendicular to the first axis, wherein the first pattern has a first oscillation from the first edge that is directed in a first direction along the first axis; and scanning the light beams according to a second pattern from a second edge to a second ending edge for the screen to form at least another image, the second pattern being a wave pattern of scan lines such that amplitudes oscillate along the first axis as the beams progressively scan along the second axis, wherein the second pattern has a first oscillation from the second edge that is directed in a second direction along the first axis that is opposite the first direction, wherein a scan velocity modulation is employed in the second axis by causing the light beams to spend more time on a bright area than on a dark area of an image.

    Abstract: A device for forming a tilted focused beam (13) in a near-field zone, from an electromagnetic wave incident on the device is disclosed. The tilted focused beam (13) has a non-zero elevation angle ( θ 0 ) with respect to an arrival direction of said electromagnetic wave (12). The device comprises a layer of dielectric material (11) comprising a cavity (10), filled with a substance having a refractive index (n 2 ) lower than that of the dielectric material, and comprising at least one base surface, defined with respect to said arrival direction of said electromagnetic wave, and delineated by a base edge line, and at least one lateral surface. The focused beam (13) is formed thanks to a recombination of a plurality of nanojet beams originating from different segments of the base edge line, which approximately has a split-ring shape, with an internal edge line (101) and an external edge line (102). An angular length (α) of the internal edge line (101) controls the non-zero elevation angle ( θ 0 ) of the focused beam (13) originating from a point (A) located on an axis of symmetry and in a focal plane of the device.

    Abstract: An optical system for use in detecting and imaging at least one nanometric object (12) is disclosed, which comprises:
    - at least one microfluidic channel (10) adapted to be filled in or travelled across by a fluid medium (11) comprising nanometric objects (12), said channel being delimited by at least a bottom wall (15 1 ) and a ceiling wall (15 2 ) positioned opposite to and facing the bottom wall, said bottom wall comprising a transparent substrate;
    - at least one nanojet focusing element (NJFE) (13) designed in a form of a surface feature of at least a part of the bottom wall facing the ceiling wall;
    - a light source arranged in such a manner that it illuminates the at least one nanojet focusing element (NJFE) through the transparent substrate of the bottom wall and thereby focuses the light as a photonic nanojet (14) inside the fluid medium between the bottom wall and the ceiling wall; and
    - light detection means arranged to measure the light scattered or induced by a nanometric object (12) hit by a photonic nanojet (14), the light scattered or induced returning to the light detection means by first passing through the at least one nanojet focusing element (NJFE) (13).

    Abstract: One or more processors provide image information to a wearable display device to produce a displayed image on a surface of the wearable display device that includes a first computer generated image (CGI) and a second CGI, wherein the first CGI represents a virtual object in a first position in the displayed image to coincide with a first shadow image included in a background display visible through the surface; and the second CGI represents an image corresponding to the background display and in a second position in the displayed image to hide a portion of a second shadow image included in the background display.
