摘要:
An ultrasonic implantable device includes an ultrasonic sensor having a plurality of transducers. The sensor is configured for mounting to a vessel wall. A first of the transducers directs sound waves in a direction at least partially upstream or downstream in the vessel. A second of the transducers directs sound waves in a radial direction through an interior of the vessel against a sidewall of the vessel. The sensor monitors a change in frequency of the sound waves from the first transducer to determine a fluid velocity in the vessel. The sensor also monitors a reflection time of the sound waves from the second transducer that return from the sidewall to determine an internal diameter of the vessel. The determined fluid velocity and vessel diameter can be used to determine a volumetric flow rate of the fluid in the vessel.

A system for detecting deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) biomarkers. The system is configured to monitor and control standard parameters (temperature, pH, free chlorine, redox potential, TDS, turbidity), via an array of sensors. The system is configured to perform automated microbiological testing using a DNA hybridization based optical detection sensor, wherein the sensor is configured to provide automated sample collection, primer and buffer addition, thermocycling and fluorescence detection via laser excitation and a linear CCD.

The invention called a Framer's Tape Hook is a modification of a tape hook, which is attached to a retractable tape measure. The modification adds the capacity to offset the tape hook by ½ the thickness of any framing member. The purpose of this modification is to mark the edge locations of wall studs, floor and ceiling joist, rafters, and trusses. The Framer's Tape Hook can extend ¾ of an inch for dimension lumber. The Framer's Tape Hook can extend ⅝ of an inch for LGS, or light gauge steel studs. The Framer's Tape Hook can extend 1¼ inches for 2½ inch wide strapping. The Framer's Tape Hook can be set, to accommodate any stud, joist, or rafter size. The Framer's Tape Hook adds speed and accuracy when marking layout, whether it is a 16 inch on-center layout, 24 inch on-center layout, or any other desired layout.

A support frame for a infant or child support device is disclosed. The frame includes oval shaped side members that provide a wide, safe base and a smooth rocking action to the rocker. The kickstand may be used to convert the support frame from a rocking configuration into a stable, non-rocking configuration. The support frame may also include a seat that can be removed from the support frame.

In a method and system of incorporating team challenges into a social game, a request to start a team challenge is received. The team challenge includes an in-game task that a plurality of players is to complete, with the plurality of players including an initiator and a helper. A selection of the helper from a set of buddies is received, with the set of buddies being based on a social network of the initiator. A completion of the in-game task by each of the plurality of players is detected. A reward is provided to each of the plurality of players based on the completion. In this way, new players are attracted to the social game, and current players increase their levels of participation in the social game.
摘要:
Method and apparatus for fabricating a rigid framed image wherein an image is received in an electronic form. The image is then associated with a frame template to form a virtualized framed image. A cut directive is created in association with a printer directive so that the image is imparted onto a substrate on one side and grooves are cut into the opposite side of the substrate so that the substrate can subsequently be formed into a three dimensional picture frame.

A method of enabling in-game contextual chatting is disclosed. A request for information about an online game currently being played by a first player and a second player is received. A previous online game that was previously played by the first player and the second player is determined. A chat transcript is generated that pertains to the online game in response to the request for the information, the chat transcript spanning from the online game currently being played by the first player and the second player to the previous online game that was previously played by the first player and the second player.
摘要:
A method of combining games based on levels of interactivity of the games is disclosed. It is identified that a player is idle with respect to a primary game, the primary game having a first level of interactivity. A secondary game having a second level of interactivity is selected based on the second level of interactivity being compatible with the first level of interactivity. The player is provided with an option to participate in the secondary game white the player is idle with respect to the primary game.
