    摘要: Aspects of the technology described herein relate to sensing a fingerprint of a subject via an ultrasound fingerprint sensor. Certain aspects relate to transmitting and receiving ultrasound data at multiple different frequencies to provide sensing data from different depths within the skin of the subject. Since different ultrasound frequencies are expected to penetrate a subject's skin to different degrees, sensing a finger at multiple ultrasound frequencies may provide information on different physical aspects of the finger. For instance, sound ultrasound frequencies may sense a surface of the skin, whereas other ultrasound frequencies may penetrate through one or more of the epidermal, dermal or subcutaneous layers. The ultrasound fingerprint apparatus may have utility in various applications, including but not limited to mobile electronic devices, such as mobile phones or tablet computers, a laptop computer or biometric access equipment.

    摘要: Techniques for atomic force microscope manipulation of living cells include functionalizing a nanoscale tip of a microscale cantilever with a first ligand for a first receptor associated with a surface of a first type of cell. The method further comprises, controlling the cantilever to cause the first ligand on the nanoscale tip to contact the first receptor on a surface of a living cell of the first type in a particular temporal pattern to induce a target response by the living cell. Other techniques for controlling an atomic force microscope comprising a nanoscale tip include controlling the cantilever to cause the nanoscale tip to contact a living cardiomyocyte at a predetermined pressure. The cantilever is also controlled to turn off vertical deflection feedback after contacting the cardiomyocyte and collecting deflection data that indicates a time series of nanoscale vertical deflections of the microscale cantilever caused by the living cardiomyocyte.

    摘要: According to some embodiments, a Single-Instruction/Multiple-Data (SIMD) averaging instruction is used to process pixels of image data. The averaging instruction generates a set of four-pixel averages, where each average is generated from two pixels in a first source register and two pixels in a second source register. The first source register contains a plurality of pixels from a first row of pixels and the second source register contains a plurality of pixels from a second row. In one embodiment, the first and second rows are adjacent rows in an image and the averaging instruction is used, for example, to down-scale an image, perform color conversion, and the like. In another embodiment, the first and second rows are from different images and the averaging instruction is used, for example, in motion estimation for video encoding, in motion compensation for video decoding, and the like.
