Abstract:
A device is presented for computing an optical center of a sensor array relative to a lens. The sensor array includes a plurality of sensor units, and each sensor unit has a position on the sensor array. The lens defines an optical axis. The device includes a configuration module and a processing circuit. The configuration module is provided for positioning the lens and the sensor array thereon. When test light is parallel to the optical axis and is incident to the lens, the sensor array receives the test light transmitted by the lens so that each sensor unit outputs a value. The processing circuit is linked to the sensor array for receiving values outputted from the sensor units and selecting positions of sensor units outputting a specific value among the values, for computing the optical center of the sensor array.
Abstract:
An electrical toaster includes a case unit having a laterally extending supporting wall and defining a heating chamber that is disposed below the supporting wall, at least a lower slot that is formed in the supporting wall and that is in spatial communication with the heating chamber, and a warming chamber that is disposed above the supporting wall and that is in fluid communication with the lower slot. An electrical heating unit is disposed in the heating chamber. A cover is mounted removably on the case unit for covering at least a top side of the warming chamber.
Abstract:
A striking head-interchangeable hammer includes a handle, a head body connected securely to the handle and formed with a through-hole and upper and lower bores, a striking body having a connecting portion that is received fittingly in the lower bore, and a stress-distributable fastener including a connecting rod that extends through the through-hole and the upper and lower bores in the head body to engage threadedly the striking body, and that is formed with an abutting flange received fittingly in the upper bore and anchored on and abutting against an abutting face of a bore-defining wall of the upper bore upon tightening of the connecting rod onto the striking body.

Abstract:
A method for evaluating usage of an application by a user on a portable device includes: obtaining an evaluation value regarding usage of the application within an evaluation period, the evaluation value beingassociated with one of an accumulated number of times during the evaluation period, an accumulated usage duration during the evaluation period, and a median/average of multiple numbers of times of the usage at. respective time segments within the evaluation period; generating a comparison result; and based on the comparison result, outputting one of a positive feedback without interrupting execution of the application, and. a negative feedback to require user interaction with the portable device.
Abstract:
A method for evaluating usage of an application by a user includes: obtaining screen information regarding use of the portable device during a predetermined time period; determining a number of times of usage of an application for each day within the predetermined time period; calculating a usage duration for each time of execution of the application; calculating a daily usage duration for each day; selecting at least one usage duration for each day; calculating an evaluation value based on one of the at least one usage duration, the number of times of usage of the application for each day, and the daily usage duration; and generating an evaluation result based on the evaluation value and a preset standard.

Abstract:
This invention provides a multi-dimensional encoded (MDE) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scheme to map a q-dimensional object with p spatial encoding magnetic fields (SEMs) onto a p-dimensional space where p is equal to or larger than q. The provided MDE MRI scheme links imaging schemes using linear and nonlinear gradients. The present invention also provides a system and method of optimizing the spatial bases in MDE MRI. With a higher dimension encoding space in MDE MRI, the image can be reconstructed in a more efficiency and accurate manner.
