Abstract:
A method used in a service providing device for delivering interactive multimedia content to a plurality of client devices, comprising: receiving a request for the interactive multimedia content, from at least one of the plurality of client devices; disabling the plurality of client devices from sending the request to the service providing device, according to a predetermined condition; and delivering the interactive multimedia content to the plurality of client devices.
Abstract:
A humidifier system for heating and humidifying respiratory gases has a housing with an inner chamber, a first port at the first end for connection to a ventilator breathing circuit and a second port at the second end for connection to a patient to supply respiratory gases to the patient and to receive exhaled gases from the patient. A body of heat moisture exchange (HME) material is located within the chamber, and a water permeable device is also located within the chamber. The housing has a water refill inlet communicating with the water permeable device. A water supply outside the housing is connected to the water refill inlet to supply water to the water permeable device. A heater mounted outside the housing supplies heat to the housing and maintains the housing at a selected temperature.
Abstract:
The present disclosure is concerned with taccalonolide analogs and conjugated taccalonolide analogs useful as cellular probes and in the treatment of, for example, hyperproliferative disorders such as cardiovascular diseases and cancer. This abstract is intended as a scanning tool for purposes of searching in the particular art and is not intended to be limiting of the present invention.
Abstract:
A user assigns a major and minor channel number combination to a media service which does not have such a pre-existing combination, where such a media service is accessed by using such a channel combination without having to resort to the typical means of accessing the media service, such as using a web site URL or radio frequency. Optionally, the invention will automatically update the minor numbers associated with a media service when older versions of the media service become unavailable.

Abstract:
The present invention relates to a computer device comprising a detector for detecting a user's eye and a processor. The processor is configured to determine if the position of the user's eye is kept in a zone for a first time period, and if the position of the user's eye is kept in the zone for the first time period, suspend for a second time period detecting the user's eye and determining the position of the user's eye.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for responding to a users selection gesture of an object displayed in three dimensions. The method comprises comprising displaying at least one object using a display, detecting a users selection gesture captured using an image capturing device, and based on the image capturing devices output, determining whether an object among said at least one objects is selected by said user as a function of the eye position of the user and of the distance between the users gesture and the display.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a method for operating a computer device with user's eye movement. The method comprises the steps of detecting the user's eye movement, analyzing the user's eye movement to specify an eye movement pattern in the detected user's eye movement and a time period for completing the eye movement pattern, determining a command associated with a combination of the eye movement pattern and the time period and operating the device according to the command.
Abstract:
It is provided a method for providing mono-vision in a multi-view system comprising at least two views of the same scene and at least one viewing zone, wherein, each viewing zone is provided with two views, and the at least two views are arranged in a way that two adjacent views among the at least two views are provided to each viewing zone so as to provide stereo-vision. The method comprises the steps of receiving an instruction requesting a viewing zone to provide mono-vision; and rearranging the at least two views in a way that two views provided to the viewing zone that provides mono-vision are of the same view as one among the at least two views. An apparatus thereof is also provided.
Abstract:
A method is provided for detecting gesture inputs in response to a consecutive reciprocating movement before a detecting device, wherein, the consecutive reciprocating movement is made of a first type of gesture and a second type of gesture, each capable of being recognized by the detecting device to output a different control signal. The method comprises the steps of receiving the consecutive reciprocating movement starting with a first type of gesture among the two types, wherein, the first type of gesture and the second type of gesture occur alternately, and outputting control signals corresponding to the first type of gesture with times number equaling to the number of the first of type gesture contained within the consecutive reciprocating movement.
