Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer-storage media, for selective heating. In some implementations, a cooking device for selective heating includes a cavity, one or more waveguides coupled to the cavity, a power generation means coupled to the one or more waveguides and configured to generate an incident power, one or more apertures between the cavity and the one or more waveguides, and a controller configured to control one or more of the power generation means, the apertures, or a cavity geometry. A cooking device cavity geometry can be dynamically configurable. The cooking device can include one or more sensors coupled to the cavity.

Abstract: This disclosure describes a system, method, and non-transitory computer readable media for an ultrasound probe configured to capture ultrasound images of an examination region. The system includes a first set of one or more sensors coupled to the ultrasound probe and configured to estimate a first positional information associated with the ultrasound probe. The system includes a second set of one or more sensors coupled to the ultrasound probe and configured to capture electromagnetic force (EMF) measurements in the examination region to estimate a second positional information associated with the ultrasound probe. The second positional information is used to calibrate the first set of one or more sensors. The system includes a controller configured to use at least one of (i) the first positional information, or (ii) the second positional information to generate a reconstruction of the examination region based on ultrasound images captured by the ultrasound probe.
