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.
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.
Researchers at Stanford University have over come some of the critical challenges for wireless broadband users to remain connected in highly mobile environments.
This patented invention is an internet-based laboratory data management system that can be used to create protocols, collect and organize data, archive long-term records, and facilitate scientific collaboration among researchers.
Stanford researchers have created software to view panoramic videos from arbitrary viewpoints from separate non-overlapping geo-referenced panoramic video streams. Ths system can also synthesize missing panoramic images to provide the user with a full sequence.
This user interface enables a user to define tags within virtual tour applications that label objects in panoramic images and video – a process that has been very difficult to achieve prior to this invention.
Researchers in the Herzenberg lab at Stanford have developed and patented a federated directory service system for managing scientific data. Scientific data is often stored in paper-bound notebooks and unstructured computer files which can be difficult to maintain over time.
