Abstract: An infusion product 1 for making a beverage comprises a sheet-like matrix formed from fibres of a first plant material 2 such as lokta, cotton, hemp or abaca. Particles of a second plant material 3 such as fruits, herbs, medicinal plants, tea, vegetables or spices are embedded within the sheet-like matrix, configured such that an extract from the second plant material infuses into a first liquid such as water when the infusion product is soaked in the liquid to make the beverage. The matrix may also comprise an extract from a third plant material. The matrix may further comprise a gelling agent such as methylcellulose.  A method of making the infusion product comprises: soaking fibres of a first plant material in a second liquid to form a pulp; mixing particles of a second plant material with the pulp; forming the pulp into a sheet; and drying the sheet. An additional method comprises coating a sheet with a layer of gelling agent and coating the layer of gelling agent with particles of a second plant material, configured so that an extract from the second plant material infuses into the first liquid when the product is soaked to make the beverage.

Title: Imaginetec - material medium quality assessment
Inventor: IVAN KALOYANOV
IPC: G01R27/26
Filed: 2019-07-07
Abstract: An electrical property of a material 4 is measured using a circuit including a high frequency sinusoidal generator 1, which applies a current to the material via contact electrodes A, B and switch K1 when in position 1. The voltage Vab across the material is measured by a microprocessor unit (MPU) 6 via switch K2 in position 1 and ADC 5. After this measurement is made, relay 3 moves switches K1, K2 to position 2. This disconnects the sinusoidal source 1 from the material. Any equivalent EMF or voltage ELEQ produced by the material is then measured by MPU 6, switch K2 in position 2, and ADC 7. The measurements made may be repeated in multiple time intervals. Electrotechnical parameters of the material which may be calculated include: admittance, conductance, impedance, resistance, capacitance, short circuit current, active power, reactive power, active or reactive energy, or current flow across the terminals a, b in the material. A multi-channel version of the circuit (figure 8) is also disclosed.

Title: Apparatus and method for data generation
Inventor: PHILIP DAVID POWER
IPC: G06T15/00
Filed: 2019-07-26
Abstract: Image data for rendering as an image frame is generated and stored (310) in a memory, the data comprising data for an object in the frame. Properties associated with the object are detected (320) for the object data, and a confidence score is generated (330) (e.g. using a machine learning model) based on the properties indicating a likelihood that the object data is to be used for more than a threshold (340) number of image frames in a sequence. Indicator data is allocated (350, 370) to the object data indicating a magnitude of the confidence score for the object data, and the object data is stored (360, 380) in the memory in association with the corresponding indicator data. The one or more properties associated with the object may include a position or orientation of the object, a lighting or depth of the object, or a position, orientation or field of view of a virtual camera for the scene. The object data held in memory may therefore be used for multiple image frames in a sequence of frames, rather than being generated again for each frame.

Title: Magnetic domain wall-based non-volatile, linear and bi-directional synaptic weight element
Inventor: AAKASH PUSHP
IPC: H01L43/08
Filed: 2020-03-03
Abstract: A magnetic double tunnel junction (MDTJ) (which, preferably, has a large aspect ratio, wherein length L of the MDTJ >> width w of the MDTJ) has magnetic domain wall(s) or DW(s) in the free layer of the MDTJ, wherein controlled movement of the DW(s) across the free layer is effected in response to the polarity, magnitude, and duration of a voltage pulse across the MDTJ. The motion and relative position of DW(s) causes the conductance of the MDTJ (that is measured across the MDTJ) to change in a symmetric and linear fashion. By reversing the polarity of the bias voltage, the creation and/or direction of the DW(s) motion can be reversed, thereby allowing for a bi-directional response to the input pulse.

Title: A method and system for acoustic communication of data
Inventor: DANIEL JOHN JONES
IPC: H04B11/00
Filed: 2017-10-13
Abstract: A method to transmit data acoustically between a first device 101 and a second device 103. An audio signal transmitted by a speaker 102 is received by a microphone 104 and passed to a processor 105 which is configured with a first plurality of voters or decoding engines to extract the data. The voters comprise differing values of a first acoustic characteristic to address interference. Data encoded in the audio signal is decoded based on outputs from each of the voters. If the received signal cannot be successfully decoded the number of voters is increased. The first acoustic characteristic may be a reverberation rolloff exponent (see Fig. 2a), a reverberation cancellation magnitude or a timing offset (see Fig. 2b). The description also suggests the acoustic characteristic could be “noise cancellation” or “harmonics”. Each voter may be pre-weighted and a confidence interval may be used for decoding. The number and configuration of the voters may be optimised based upon the expected acoustic environment. The acoustic data may be a shortcode and may be encoded using a header, error correction and a payload.

Title: Immobility detection within situational context
Inventor: SCOTT D PENDLETON
IPC: B60W60/00
Filed: 2021-12-16
Abstract: Method of classifying the reason causing the vehicle to remain stationary (stuck, immobile) for extended period of time, prescribing a timeout duration threshold, which exceeded, prompts the vehicle to perform a remedial action. The reasons may be one expected to resolve (red traffic light, pedestrian or jaywalker crossing road, give way at intersection) or one not expected to resolve (traffic accident, parked car, stationary obstacle object on road). For the identified reason a time duration is specified to be the nominal duration. If duration is exceeded, the vehicle is considered “stuck” and vehicle may intervene by generating a new route to avoid accident, generating a new trajectory to go around and circumvent the obstacle, or removing operational constrain for a false detection. Duration threshold may depend on a risk associated with stopping (e.g. of obstructing cross-traffic). Stop reason may be reported along with information about instances of stoppage, causes, location information etc.
