An oral hygiene products dispenser stand for storing and dispensing oral hygiene products such as toothbrushes, mouthwash, disposable cups, and dental floss is described. The stand includes a base, a supporting framework for storing and dispensing disposable cups, and a plurality of toothbrush holders. The brush head end of a toothbrush can be placed into a toothbrush holder to be sanitized and dried. The stand serves as an oral hygiene products dispensing station when the base supports a bottle of mouthwash, fluoride rinse or other antiseptic fluid.

A photography system includes a digital camera and a remote control. The remote control emits a light that the photographer can use to designate a subject to be photographed by pointing the remote control at the subject, casting a light spot on the subject. In a preferred embodiment, the light is generated by a laser pointer included in the remote control. The camera selects a region to photograph from its field of view, based on the location or motion of the light spot. The camera may optionally select a region that is centered on the light spot. The photographer may optionally specify the size of the region to be selected. The camera may optionally adjust the size of the selected region to assist in photographic composition. The camera may optionally be capable of making video recordings.
摘要:
A camera system may include an image sensor to generate real-time image data of a scene having a subject. A pose evaluator can generate a pose metric signal having a pose value that provides a variable measure of a pose quality for the subject in the scene. A pose feedback indicator can provide user-perceptible feedback demonstrating the value of the pose metric signal, such that the variable measure of the pose quality is provided.
摘要:
Face-detection processing methods, image processing devices, and articles of manufacture are described. According to one arrangement, a face-detection processing method includes accessing image data of a plurality of images to be processed for detection of human faces in the images, determining whether or not to use skin-detection processing for face-detection processing of individual ones of the images, and in accordance with the determining, performing the face-detection processing of one of the images using the skin-detection processing to detect human faces in the one of the images and performing the face-detection processing of another of the images without using the skin-detection processing to detect human faces in the another of the images.
摘要:
Devices and methods for automatic monitoring of fluid of a patient are disclosed, comprising a patient line, a transfer disk which receives the fluid and controllably transfers the fluid to test substrates, and a sensor disk which houses the test substrates. The sterile transfer disk may be configured to maintain the sterility of the patient sampling assembly while transferring samples to non-sterile components, such as the sensor disk.
摘要:
The shutter of a digital imaging device may be calibrated by comparing a characteristic of two separate exposures obtained from a single field of the device's imaging sensor during a single exposure cycle. Calibrating the shutter in this manner facilitates the accuracy of even very short exposure times.
摘要:
Systems and methods for responding to a data transfer are disclosed. One embodiment comprises a method that includes the following steps: determining a sustainable data transfer rate for data transfers to/from an external memory medium, acquiring a data stream, transforming the data stream, and selecting a value for at least one operational parameter associated with acquiring or transforming the data stream in response to the sustainable data transfer rate.
摘要:
A device to apply detection schemes to texture information of a face detected within an image to generate mouth corner candidates and identify best matching mouth corners by applying a geometric model to the moth corner candidates.
摘要:
An image contains a representation of a person's face, where the image has plural points each comprising multiple components of a color space. For each of the plural points, at least two of the color space components are combined to produce a respective aggregate value. The image is processed to convert at least some of the points of the image based on the calculated aggregate values.
