To significantly reduce the energy consumed by mobile web browsers, a system was developed for precise measurement of power consumption by browsers of mobile devices when rendering web pages.
This invention offers a cost-effective solution to streaming video to mobile users. A prototype has been implemented in software, demonstrating its low operational cost based on peer-to-peer technology and its robustness to peer failure.
A method of tracking an inventory of objects via a mobile communications device includes acquiring an image of one or more of the objects via the mobile communications device, which also collects a location of the mobile communications device while acquiring the image of the o
A system for enabling streaming video to a mobile client includes a plurality of fixed node peers linked to the mobile client via one or more networks as well as a video source linked to fixed node peers and configured to provide streaming video data representing a video prese
Mobile devices often connect to the network via wireless channels. In general, the downlink of the wireless channel (e.g., the cellular access network) is limited in throughput.
Stanford researchers in the Dai Lab have developed the first ultra-bright cubic-phase erbium-based rare-earth nanoparticles (α-ErNPs) with down-shifting luminescence at ~ 1600 nm for in vivo NIR-IIb (1500-1700 nm) imaging with deep penetration and high clarity.
Researchers at Stanford have developed a targeted delivery system using carbon nanotubes to specifically deliver cardiovascular drugs to treat atherosclerosis. A feature of atherosclerotic plaque is the accumulation of apoptotic cells.
Stanford researchers at the Camarillo Lab have designed a real-time screening device system for predicting risk of concussion resulting from head impacts.
A team of interdisciplinary researchers at Stanford have developed a small, lightweight optical strain sensor device to sensitively measure forces within the mitral valve apparatus to help determine the appropriate repair technique for patients undergoing valvular surgery for
Stanford researchers have developed an exceptionally fast, sensitive, and compact X-ray imaging system for distinguishing liquids and other materials in aviation security applications.
Engineers at the Khuri-Yakub Group have designed a non-surgical alternative for treating epilepsy using ultrasonic technology which can detect, localize, and suppress epileptic seizures in epileptic patients.
Ultrasound complements mammography as an imaging modality for breast cancer detection, especially in patients with dense breast tissue, but its utility is limited by low diagnostic accuracy.
