    This publication describes systems and techniques directed to wireless charging through a collapsible mobile device grip. A receiver (Rx) coil that is attached to a collapsible cable is affixed inside the top, planar surface of the collapsible mobile device grip. The location of the Rx coil is such that the receiver coil can be placed proximate a complementary transmission (Tx) coil disposed inside a top, planar surface of a wireless charging pad. A collapsible cable connects the Rx coil to a pogo-pin interface, which can be integrated into a backplate of the mobile device or into a casing of the mobile device, to electrically couple the Rx coil to a charging system of the mobile device

    INTELLIGENTLY LOCKING A DEVICE BASED ON CONTEXTUAL SIGNALS

    A system is described that enables a computing device (e.g., a mobile phone, smartwatch, tablet computer, etc.) to detect or couple with a companion computing device to detect various contextual signals and automatically lock the computing device based on the various contextual signals. The computing device may use one or more sensors (e.g., infrared cameras, near-field microwave sensors, cameras, microphones, etc.) to detect user inputs, measure wireless signal characteristics, capture images, determine a location of the computing device, etc. as contextual signals. The computing device may analyze these contextual signals to lock the computing device automatically (i.e., change the computing device from operating in a first access state to operating in a second access state that restricts usage of one or more features, applications, or other functionalities of the computing device relative to the first access state). For example, if a user walks away from the computing device, the computing device may use a radio detection and ranging (radar) system to detect that the user is no longer in front of the computing device and, in response, may automatically lock the computing device. In various instances, a companion computing device may couple with the computing device to detect or otherwise determine contextual signals which may be provided to and used by the computing device to lock the device automatically

Kesimpulan pelatihan literasi kesehatan reproduksi remaja dapat memberikan keterampilan hidup sehat.Kata Kunci: Reproduksi remaja; Literasi kesehatan; Posyandu remaja.  AbstractHealth literacy has the potential to influence health behaviors in adolescents related to adolescent reproductive health itself. Adolescents are at risk of experiencing fundamental changes associated with the problem of differences in adolescent sexual attitudes and behavior, which is related to the process of growth and development. Seeing this problem, a juvenile reproductive health intervention is needed. The novelty of this activity is due to improving adolescent reproductive health literacy through training posyandu cadres in the archipelago area. This activity aims to improve adolescent reproductive health literacy by training adolescent posyandu cadres at SMP Negeri 1 Semau, Kupang Regency, East Nusa Tenggara. The expected output through this PKM activity is the empowerment of Generation Z as cadres of adolescent posyandu to improve adolescent reproductive health literacy. The activity method used is the one-group pretest-posttest design approach. The subject of the activity was a cadre of 10 youth posyandu. The training was carried out on September 3, 2022, on Semau Island. Based on the results obtained in the pre-implementation, namely finding the results of the situation analysis and licensing, then making media in the form of flip charts about reproductive health. Then the implementation is carried out by filling out a pretest questionnaire, then providing adolescent reproductive health literacy. The results of the activity showed that there is an increase in the knowledge and attitudes of adolescents about reproductive health. Conclusion juvenile reproductive health literacy training can provide healthy life skills.Keywords: Adolescent reproduction; Health literacy; Youth posyandu

    Multi-camera arrays to detect posture

    Get PDF
    This disclosure describes techniques that, with user permission, automatically detect the posture of a user of a personal computer. The user’s posture is detected using hardware typically found on a desktop or laptop PC, e.g., cameras, without requiring extra sensors or other additional hardware. If the detected posture is determined to be poor, the user is alerted. By detecting and alerting the user of poor posture, the techniques can help forestall health problems. The techniques are implemented with user permission. Users are provided with options to turn off posture detection

    Detecting hardware damage using a resistive grid

    Get PDF
    Dropping a mobile phone or other electronic device can damage not only the enclosure but also internal components, e.g., batteries, printed circuit boards, etc. Sometimes the damage is only internal, with no apparent damage to the casing. Continued use of damaged internal components can result in further damage, e.g., continued use of a damaged USB bridge or battery can result in short circuits or explosions. Per techniques of this disclosure, a variable resistive matrix is embedded within the casing of the electronic device. If the casing is dented or otherwise damaged, even invisibly, the resistance of corresponding rows and columns of the matrix changes enabling localization of the damage. Components near the damage can be disabled, and the user can be notified to take the device in for service

A given webpage, document, or URL may be configured with permission for access via one user account but not for other user accounts. This disclosure describes techniques that automatically use or recommend credentials stored on a device to gain access to protected content

    Leveraging Mab cell culture platform to predict product quality

    Get PDF
    Biopharmaceutical therapeutic development timelines can be reduced by quickly generating material to initiate clinical trials and begin the process of drug development in order to improve the lives of patients. One way Biogen has addressed these challenges is the generation of a high productivity host. The high productivity host enables the use of representative cell pools that produce sufficient material for toxicology studies faster than previous workflows which used an individual clone. In general, one caveat of using cell pools is the risk of generating material that may not be fully representative of the commercial process. As product quality may vary from clone to clone, a less productive clone may need to be selected in order to avoid repeating toxicology studies. Biogen has mitigated this risk through changes in the cell culture platform process in order to have more predictable product quality outputs across pools, clones, and products. Cell culture platform modifications to the host cell line, media composition, and process parameters have enabled a predictable quality profile for both clones and pools, thereby enabling a “fast to tox” strategy that is also consistent with generating a commercially desirable proces
