    摘要: An orthotic device includes a resilient portion configured to apply a force in one or more predetermined directions to assist or restrict movement of a part of a wearer's body, and a rigid portion configured to restrict movement of the body part. The rigid portion is removably-couplable to the resilient portion so that it can be removed from, and coupled to, the resilient portion while the device is being worn.

    摘要: A touch sensor controller system for use in a vehicle of the type utilizing a software application to be interfaced with by an operator of the vehicle includes a touch sensor and a touch detector associated with the touch sensor. A touch gesture processor is provided which prevents unwanted or unintended touch gestures from being communicated to the application software during certain operating conditions of the vehicle. The touch gesture processor receives inputs of the operating conditions of the vehicle and receives touch gesture information from the touch detector, and the touch gesture processor is operative to determine the types of touch gestures to be permitted to be passed to the software application.

    摘要: A message is divided into multiple message segments, and a network interface is selected from among a plurality of different types of network interfaces included within a communication device for transmitting each message segment. Each network interface is dedicated to a different type of communication protocol using a different encryption technique, and a network interface is selected for transmitting each message segment according to a pattern of the network interfaces. Secure transmission of the multiple message segments is initiated via the network interfaces according to the pattern.

    摘要: Growing rod systems and methods for correcting spinal deformities include at least one growing rod assembly and at least one fluid delivery assembly. Each growing rod assembly includes a fluid actuator that is operable to extend first and second rod segments in opposite directions along the spine. The fluid actuator can be provided by, for example, a piston-cylinder actuator. Each fluid delivery assembly includes a fluid pump operably connectable to a fluid line, which in turn is connected to the fluid actuator. In one embodiment, the fluid actuator is of a linear design. In another embodiment, two linear or curvilinear fluid actuators are provided back-to-back and connected by a connecting rod that mounts to the mid-spine and is contourable. In another embodiment, the fluid actuator is of a curvilinear design to generally conform the normal spine. And in another embodiment, the fluid actuator includes a fluid-over-fluid shock absorber.
