Patent EP-3625652-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MURPHY MICHAEL WILLIAM
IPC: G06F3/048
Filed: 2018-05-18
Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for selection of characters from an electronic user interface. In one embodiment, a letter selection interface displays letters in a row, some of which are recordable by an input interpreter and others that are unrecordable. In one embodiment, unrecordable letters visually separate letters that are both (1) recordable, and (2) assigned to different but adjacent selection buttons. In response to received touch-screen activations, an interpreter records recordable letter selections and a display displays both recordable and unrecordable letter selections. The interpreter composes a sequence of the recorded letters. An algorithm identifies alternatives to the recorded sequence by editing one or more letters of the sequence, such that each edit changes a selected letter to an adjacent unrecordable letter. The algorithm outputs words that match the originally composed sequence or one of the identified alternatives.

Title: Quick pairing of peripheral and host devices
Inventor: ILAMI STEVEN MATHEW
IPC: H04W4/80
Filed: 2018-11-10
Abstract: A host device, such as a laptop or desktop computer, that supports wireless point- to-point connections with peripheral devices, such as a pair of headphones, mouse, etc., is configured with quick pair with which the host device can automatically surface a toast on the UI for the user to pair the host and peripheral devices when the peripheral device is within range. For example, a pattern within an advertisement payload can be transmitted, or beaconed, by the peripheral device to the host device, where the host device then identifies, based on the pattern, that the peripheral device is quick pair enabled. When the peripheral device is within range, the host device then automatically surfaces a toast for the user to pair the two devices, and moves the toast to a notification center in case the user wishes to pair the device at a later time.

Abstract: The present invention provides a suturing device to minimize interference and obstructions during intricate surgeries. The curled suture device is significantly shorter than traditional suturing kits by featuring a needle attached to a specially manufactured thread incorporating a stopping mechanism preceding an angular, semi-rigid portion of thread followed by a curled portion of thread arranged in a corkscrew configuration. The stopping mechanism halts the movement of the thread as the needle and thread intermediate the needle and stopping mechanism is pulled through the suture point, securing the remainder of the thread for access. The semi-rigid portion of thread is thereby utilized in conjunction with its curled portion of thread, allowing for the user's unabated access to the corkscrew configuration to form a ready-made knot, minimizing interference and obstruction during surgery. The thread may be manufactured to form an additional semi-rigid and curled portions of thread upon creation of a knot.
