    摘要: A monitor, which may be closely associated with a handrail, may determine the amount of force applied to the handrail. The monitor may also determine the pattern in which force is applied to the handrail in order to assess how the user is contacting the handrail. The user's application of force to the handrail can be monitored along the course of movement along the handrail and may be compared to historical usage patterns.

    摘要: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, the location of a mobile device within a floor plan of a building or the like environment may be determined using a single transmission link between transceiver and the mobile device. A bit error rate value and a receiver signal strength indication value are measured for the present location of the mobile device in the floor plan. The coordinates where the mobile device is located may be determined by looking up the measured bit error rate value and the received signal strength indication value in a lookup table. Due to environmental factors of the floor plan, the combination of the bit error rate value and the received signal strength indication value corresponds to a unique coordinate location in the floor plan from which the location of the mobile device may be determined.

    摘要: A movement analysis system may use a force sensing mat to record a pattern of applied force from the user's feet as the user undergoes a series of directed movements. The movements may be directed by the system through indicator lights in the mat and/or directions provided on a display screen. The user's response to these directions may be recorded and analyzed to derive indications of the best exercise regime based on the user's capabilities.

    摘要: A microchannel cooling system used to cool integrated circuits may include a number of microchannels which may be subject to bubble blockage. When bubble formation or nucleation occurs due to heating, the bubbles may become trapped within the microchannels. A valve within the microchannel may automatically operate, at least partially, to close off the microchannel, allowing the bubble to be freed and to be flushed from the channel in some embodiments.

    摘要: A cap may be provided over the hinged cover of an integrated circuit socket to be surface mounted to a printed circuit board. The cap may protect the socket prior to the insertion of the integrated circuit. It may also facilitate the surface mounting of the socket to a printed circuit board. It may do so in at least two ways. The cap may facilitate convective heating by the provision of a series of openings in the cap. The cap may also be infrared transmissive so that infrared radiation from a surface mount oven passes through the cap to heat the socket. As a result, in some embodiments, better reflow is achieved and higher solder ball reliability may result.

    摘要: Briefly, in accordance with one or more embodiments, a user experiencing cognitive decline or a similar affliction may be assisted with the performance of daily tasks or routines. An information handling system installed in a central room of the user's living quarters, such as a kitchen, to observe the user and determine if the user is having difficulty completing the task or routine. If it is determined that the user is experiencing difficulty, the information handling system may provide one or more cues to the user to assist the user in remembering what the user has just completed in order to indicate to the user what part of the task remains to be completed. For example, the steps recently taken by the user may be retraced by projecting an image of those footsteps onto the floor to show the user where she has recently been.
