Systems and methods for human-robot communication. More particularly, some embodiments use augmented reality to facilitate communication of robot intention and teleoperation in human-robot cooperative environments. Various embodiments of the present technology provide a middleware that integrates augmented reality (AR) with novel teleoperation interfaces to increase operation effectiveness, support the user in conducting concurrent work, and decrease stress. Various embodiments provide predictive graphical interfaces such that a teleoperator controls a virtual robot surrogate, rather than directly operating the robot itself, providing the user with foresight regarding where the physical robot will end up and how it will get there. In accordance with various embodiments a user may select between two AR interfaces using such a surrogate: one focused on real-time control and one inspired by waypoint delegation.

Disclosed are ultrathin, fully printed capacitive devices that can be mounted onto living plant surfaces with a simple transfer process. The capacitive devices are based on conductive ink trace and can detect relative humidity (RH) directly at the plant tissue-environment interface. By completely encapsulating the device's electronic features between thin swellable layers (e.g., ethyl cellulose), a significant increase in sensor capacitance, SNR and sensitivity is revealed. The capacitive devices may exhibit baseline capacitance values in the nF range, high sensitivity (up to 1 nF/%RH) over a wide range of RH values and stability over several days or months.

TUNGSTEN METAL/TUNGSTEN NITRIDE ENHANCED PLATINUM-BASED ORR CATALYST AND METHOD FOR MAKING THE SAME
A method for forming an oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalyst (200, 900) may include providing a carbon (210, 910) supported platinum nanoparticle (220, 920) substrate (Pt/C) (110) and applying a tungsten nitride (WN) film (940) onto the surface of the Pt/C substrate (210, 220, 910, 920) using atomic layer deposition (ALD) (120). The Pt/C substrate (210, 220, 910, 920) with the WN film (940) may then be oxidized at a low temperature (130) and annealed at a high temperature in order to reduce WN to metallic tungsten (W) (140). The metallic W forms a blocking layer (230, 930) over coarse Pt nanoparticles (220, 920) and improves the activity and the durability of the Pt/C catalyst (900, 200) when used in fuel cells or related applications.

A multi-layer current collector for an anodeless lithium-metal cells is described. The multi-layer current collector includes a current collector layer, a seed layer disposed on the current collector layer, and a protective shield layer disposed on the current collector layer. When incorporated into a Li-metal cell along with an electrolyte, charging of the cell leads to Li ion transferring through the shield layer, saturating the seed layer and ultimately forming a new Li metal layer between the shield layer and the lithiated seed layer. Discharging the cell reverses this process and results in disappearance of the Li metal layer and lithium passes back through the shield layer and into the electrolyte. The lithium in the seed layer also passes back into the electrolyte such that the current collector reverts to its initial structure prior to charging.

Abrégé
Systems and methods to eliminate or reduce the foreign body response (FBR) that occurs when a medical device or other material is implanted into a patient. The FBR causes a chronic inflammatory response that leads to the encapsulation of a medical device by a fibrous capsule. Macrophages have been discovered to become persistent as a result of the implanted biomaterial which occurs by an up-regulation in TLR2 and TLR4. This persistence of macrophages appears to be the primary driver of the FBR. Re-sensitizing macrophages to apoptosis using a small molecule inhibitor of TLR2 and TLR4 will abrogate the formation of the fibrous capsule in the FBR.

Biocompatible, bistable or multistable (P-Type) photochromic or UV-absorbing nanoparticles or microparticles can be applied topically to the skin. The color of the topical body ink using the biocompatible and biodegradable bistable or multistable photochromic microparticles can be written, erased or changed, and re-written locally on the skin by irradiation with light of appropriate wavelengths. Formulations with much higher sensitivity to UV light than visible light can be used as short-term topical colorimetric UV dosimeters that can be reset and re-used on an hourly or daily basis. The topical body ink using the biocompatible UV-absorbing nanoparticles or microparticles provides skin protection against sunburn, photoaging, and skin cancers in a permanent or semi-permanent way, but remain clear in the visible light spectrum, or matched closely to the user's skin tone. These particles can be uniform aggregates or polymers containing P-type photochromic dyes or UV-absorbers, microencapsulated or core-shell structures, or solid particulate materials.

Methods of preventing or treating rheumatoid arthritis (RA) in a subject by introducing the DRB1*04:01K71E mutation that is resistant to RA. The resistant allele is introduced into the subject having or at risk of developing RA, using a HLA CRISPR/Cas9 vector that targets codon 71 in the HLA allele DRB1*04:01, introducing a single A to G point mutation in codon 71 by homology directed repair to alter the lysine at position 71 of the expressed protein to glutamic acid. This modified allele is affected in the subject's hematopoietic stem cells, which are then expanded and transplanted back into the patient. This microgene therapy confers RA-resistance via an autologous transplant. The invention includes isolated nucleic acids, vectors, recombinant viruses, cells, and pharmaceutical compositions to modify the HLA DRB1*04:01 allele.

Dynamic windows with adjustable tint give users greater control over flow of light and heat. Reversible metal electrodeposition dynamic windows include (i) a transparent or translucent conductive electrode; (ii) an electrolyte solution in contact with the electrode, the electrolyte solution comprising metal cations that are reversibly electrodeposited onto the transparent electrode upon application of a cathodic potential; and (iii) a counter electrode. The electrolyte solution advantageously includes a small amount of an additive (e.g., an inhibitor, an accelerator, a leveler, or an organic or inorganic molecule that similarly serves to enhance the surface morphology of the metal cations during reversible metal electrodeposition onto the transparent electrode). Such enhancement of surface morphology during the reversible electrodeposition of the metal tinting layer over the electrode enhances one or more of color neutrality, transmittance characteristics of visible wavelengths (e.g., ability to achieve a near 0% transmission privacy state), infrared reflectance, or switching speed.

Chronological age is an important predictor of morbidity and mortality, however it is unable to account for heterogeneity in the decline of physiological function and health with advancing age. Several attempts have been made to instead define a “biological age” using multiple physiological parameters in order to account for variation in the trajectory of human aging; however, these methods require technical expertise and are likely too time-intensive and costly to be implemented into clinical practice. Accordingly, a metabolomic signature of biological aging was developed that can predict changes in physiological function with the convenience of a blood sample. A weighted model of biological age was generated based on multiple clinical and physiological measures in a large group of healthy adults and was then applied to a cohort of healthy older adults who were tracked longitudinally over a 5-10 year timeframe. Plasma metabolomic signatures were identified that were associated with biological age, including some that could predict whether individuals would age at a faster or slower rate. These results not only have clinical implications by providing a simple blood-based assay of biological aging, but also provide insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying human healthspan.

Disclosed is a method for the synthesis of crystalline -graphyne which exhibits an ABC stacking pattern in the crystal structure. Alkyne metathesis is used to reversibly cleave and reform bonds between sp-hybridized carbon atoms to create an sp and sp2-hybridized carbon network. An exemplary method includes providing a first hexa-alkynyl substituted benzene co-monomer (e.g., HPB) and a second hexa-alkynyl substituted co-monomer (e.g., HHEB), and undergoing an alkyne metathesis reaction in the presence of a catalyst. During the reaction, small short chain alkyne byproducts can be removed, to drive the reaction toward the formation of the -graphyne polymer product, while the larger alkyne byproducts can facilitate the self-correction process that will minimize the structural defects in the resulting -graphyne.

Diagnostic imaging of deep targets in the body requires sufficient signal amplitude to overcome effects such as attenuation with depth and thermal noise produced in signal reception. Coded excitation provides several strategies to increase the total transmitted energy without exceeding peak amplitude safety limits. Temporal coding has proven particularly effective, but these frequency or amplitude modulation techniques require additional transmit capabilities and often require complex processing to reduce decoding artifacts. An alternative code is presented based on time delays that relies on repeated transmit pulses that can be decoded using spatiotemporal synthetic aperture processing. A 16-pulse code is demonstrated that achieves an 11.1 dB improvement in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) while maintaining axial resolution and sufficient range lobe performance. Further, a beamforming strategy for multiline transmission ultrasound data is presented that recognizes the data as time delay encoded and performs an appropriate decoding to reduce common reconstruction artifacts. This approach simultaneously enables synthetic aperture focusing of multiline transmission data. improving focusing through depth.

In certain embodiments, compositions and methods are disclosed for adapting lipid nanoemulsions of agent-containing formulations having improved stability and/or retaining or enhancing immunogenicity. In other embodiments, agent-containing lipid-nanoemulsion formulations can be spray-dried and further embedded within glassy matrices or microparticles to improve stability and compatibility with other agents by limiting molecular mobility. In other embodiments, these microparticles harboring essentially dried stabilized agent-containing lipid-emulsion formulations can be coated by one or more coating layer to produce stabilized lipid nanoemulsions of agent-containing formulations. In some embodiments, the coating layer is applied by atomic layer deposition (ALD) and the coating layers include a metalloorganic material.
