LIGHT MATRIX BUILDING BLOCK FOR A MODULAR TOY OR EDUCATIONAL CONSTRUCTION SET

A new type of building block has been created for toys or educational sets that can light up. Each block has multiple small lights that can change color and brightness on their own. It can understand digital signals that tell it how to adjust these lights, using a simple code. This allows for fun and interactive play, as users can control the lights in different ways. The building blocks can work together with other pieces in the set to create exciting designs and effects.

METHOD OF GENERATING MULTIFUNCTIONAL MYCELIUM PRODUCTS

A new method creates useful products from mycelium, which is the root structure of fungi, using waste materials. First, fungi are grown on a carbon-rich substance to develop mature mycelium, which is then separated and dried. The dried mycelium can be shaped into foams, liquids, or gels for various applications. These products can fight bacteria, including resistant strains like MRSA, making them valuable for healthcare and other fields. Additionally, they can hold and release medicines, making them suitable for uses in textiles, skincare, and even aerospace.

EYEWEAR WITH INTEGRATED PERIPHERAL DISPLAY

Eyewear with integrated peripheral display allows users to see a series of images in a way that feels real, using advanced technology. It takes images and breaks them down into smaller parts, then quickly shows these parts in a sequence to create the full image. This happens so fast that it looks like the images are appearing all at once to the person wearing the eyewear. A special rotating mirror helps to project these images clearly to the user. Additionally, the system can adjust for any distortions caused by the environment or the images themselves, ensuring a better viewing experience.

CLOSED-LOOP ACTUATING AND SENSING EPIDERMAL SYSTEMS

A wearable device is designed to be placed directly on the skin and includes sensors, actuators, and a microcontroller. It can monitor different signals from the body to gather important health information. If it detects any unusual conditions, the device can release medicine tailored to the person's needs. The dosage and type of medication can be adjusted based on the individual's metabolism, which is tracked by the built-in sensors. This system creates a closed-loop where sensing and treatment work together for better health management.

WRONG-WAY VEHICLE DETERMINATION DEVICE

A device has been created to identify vehicles that are going the wrong way. It collects information about how different vehicles are behaving and where they are located. When a vehicle suddenly changes its behavior, the device checks its position to see if it is going the wrong way. If it finds a vehicle moving against traffic, it can alert others. This helps improve safety on the roads by quickly spotting dangerous situations.

Programmable Toy

A programmable toy has a head and a body that can move on their own. It uses three motors: two in the body and one in the head, which control how the toy moves. Strings connect these motors to the head, allowing it to tilt forward, backward, and side to side. A special joint between the head and body lets them move together smoothly. Users can control the toy's movements through a mobile app with programmable instructions.

SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR PROVIDING A SOCIAL NETWORK

A social network is created as a Web 3.0 platform where users can have their own virtual spaces. Each user has an account that stores their information and the details of their virtual space. Users can access their applications on their devices to manage their virtual space and create content. The system also connects this content to existing Web 2.0 platforms, allowing for broader interaction. Overall, it enables users to build and share their online presence in a more interactive way.

PHARMACEUTICAL KIT AND USES THEREOF

A new kit has been created to help destroy cancer cells that have stem cell-like properties. It uses the Zika virus, which can target and kill these aggressive cancer cells, particularly in brain tumors. The kit includes a special medicine, glass vials that are sealed for safety, and syringes with clean needles for easy injection. This approach aims to improve treatment options for patients with serious cancers. Overall, it offers a potential new way to fight difficult-to-treat tumors.

METHOD FOR AUTOMATICALLY PREDICTING THE EMOTIONAL EFFECT PRODUCTED BY A VIDEO GAME SEQUENCE

A new method predicts how a video game sequence affects players' emotions. It works by analyzing both the audio and video of the game to create time-stamped descriptions of what happens during gameplay. These descriptions are processed using advanced computer techniques, including neural networks. Additionally, the method looks at players' biological signals to gather more information about their emotional responses. Finally, it combines all this data to predict the emotional impact of different game sequences.

BATTERY WAVEGUIDE FOR AUGMENTED REALITY DISPLAY

A new type of eyewear uses a clear battery built into the lenses. This battery not only powers a small display inside the glasses but also helps send the display's light through the lenses. Light enters and exits the battery using special mirrors or structures on its surface. The design allows for a seamless experience, combining power and display functions in one component. Overall, it enhances augmented reality by making the technology more efficient and compact.
