Abstract: Ce projet vise à rendre les personnes aveugles totalement autonomes. Il se base sur les capacités de miniaturisation extrême que permettent les nanotechnologies. Par exemple, on est, de nos jours, parvenu à réaliser des fibres conducteurs dix fois plus petit qu'un cheveu. L'influx nerveux présente des propriétés électriques. Donc, en utilisant ces fils conducteurs de quelques nanomètres de diamètre comme électrodes, il est possible d'envoyer des impulsions électriques dans le lobe occipital du cerveau qui est le centre nerveux de la vision. Bien entendu, la vision qui sera obtenue par la personne, née ou devenue aveugle, ne sera pas celle assurée par les yeux de façon habituelle. Elle permettra, toutefois, au sujet de pouvoir trouver son chemin, dévier les obstacles et reconnaitre la forme des objets et des personnes vivant dans son voisinage.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer program products, for translation of markup language documents with display replacement. In some implementations, a method includes dis-playing a markup language document in an original language by ren-dering an internal representation of the document, sending a data structure containing the texts from the text nodes of the internal repre-sentation, as distinct data entities, to a translation service, replacing the texts with translated texts received from the translation service re-sulting in a translated representation, and displaying a first translation of the document by rendering the translated representation. In some implementations, partial, incremental translation is performed. In some implementations, a method includes receiving a notification that a phrase in a markup language document has been selected, requesting translation of the text of the selected phrase, and then displaying a re-ceived translation in a user interface.

Abstract: Techniques for auto-generating the target's visual representation may reduce or eliminate the manual input required for the generation of the target's visual representation. For example, a system having a capture device may detect various features of a user in the physical space and make feature selections from a library of visual representation feature options based on the detected features. The system can automatically apply the selections to the visual representation of the user based on the detected features. Alternately, the system may make selections that narrow the number of options for features from which the user chooses. The system may apply the selections to the user in real time as well as make updates to the features selected and applied to the target's visual representation in real time.

Abstract: The present application relates to genetically modified actinobacteria for the production of an enzyme having chitosanase activity. The genetically modified actinobacteria have a reduced (or abolished) activity of the CsnR polypeptide. Such reduced activity can be obtained by reducing the capacity of expressing the csnR gene, its corresponding transcript or expressing a dominant-negative CsnR polypeptide. Such genetically modified actinobacteria are less dependent (and, in some embodiment, totally independent) on the presence of chitosan in the culture medium for producing an enzyme having chitosanase activity. In addition, the genetically modified bacteria produce less proteases in the culture medium and ultimately provide a chitosanase end-product with higher purity.
