A display apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a thin plate-like display cell that displays an image; M exciters that are disposed on a back surface side of the display cell, and vibrate the display cell; and a driving section that drives the display cell and the M exciters.

The application relates to providing medical information in response to a query, in particular, although not exclusively, to a method of querying a medical database using voice recognition. According to an embodiment, there is provided a medical query answering apparatus that is configured to convert detected audio signals into a natural language data stream; determine from the natural language data stream whether a voice command for information relating to a medical device or a medicament has been issued by a user; in response to a positive determination, convert at least part of the natural language data stream into a query for querying a medical database; supply the query to the medical database and receive a response therefrom; and provide an audio output based at least in part on the response from the medical database.

In various embodiments, an electronic device comprises: a wireless communication module; a memory storing a priority of a plurality of external electronic devices; an output module; and a processor operatively connected to the wireless communication module, the memory, and the output module, wherein the processor is configured to: control the wireless communication module to establish a first wireless communication channel with a first external electronic device; control the wireless communication module to establish a second wireless communication channel with a second external electronic device; control the output module to output first audio data received through the first wireless communication channel; identify a priority of the first external electronic device and a priority of the second external electronic device when receiving second audio data through the second wireless communication channel while outputting the first audio data; identify a type of the first audio data and a type of the second audio data; adjust an output parameter of the first audio data and an output parameter of the second audio data based on the priority of the first external electronic device, the priority of the second external electronic device, the type of the first audio data, and the type of the second audio data; and output the first audio data using the adjusted output parameter of the first audio data and the second audio data using the adjusted output parameter of the second audio data through the output module. Various other embodiments are possible.

Methods and systems are disclosed for displaying an augmented reality virtual object on a multimedia device. One method comprises detecting, in an augmented reality environment displayed using a first device, a virtual object; detecting, within the augmented reality environment, a second device, the second device comprising a physical multimedia device; and generating, at the second device, a display comprising a representation of the virtual object.

A method, computer program product, and computing system for proactive encounter scanning is executed on a computing device and includes obtaining encounter information of a patient encounter. The encounter information is proactively processed to determine if the encounter information is indicative of one or more medical conditions and to generate one or more result set. The one or more result sets are provided to the user.

The present invention relates in general to the field of hypnotherapy, and more specifically, to a hypnotherapy system for children that utilizes an interactive doll connected to a website and/or downloadable computer software application (“app”), and a method of hypnotherapy for children using the system. One aspect of the present disclosure includes an interactive doll that is configured to play a variety of hypnosis scripts to the child through an audio playback device. The hypnosis scripts may be downloaded to the audio playback device through the connected website/app, wherein the hypnosis scripts are directed to address particular behavioral or emotional issues in the child. The purpose of the invention is to provide a hypnotherapy system and method of hypnotherapy for children that may be conveniently administered to the child in a safe and familiar environment, such as in the child's home or bedroom, without requiring the presence of a hypnotherapist. An additional purpose of the invention is to provide a hypnotherapy system and method of hypnotherapy for children that utilizes an interactive doll that is comforting to the child and that helps retain the attention and focus of the child during a hypnosis session.

A portable device and accompanying software provides users with a digital audio workstation with integrated tools take in raw audio data from physical inputs and map the raw data to various virtual outputs. Raw audio data for recording (recording data) is cast in real-time to a remote server. Monitoring data is simultaneously sent to collaborating devices via P2P protocols. The bitrate of the data for P2P transmissions can be adjusted to allow remote multiple users recording simultaneously to hear monitoring data in synchronicity, regardless of the speed of their respective internet connections. Face-to-face collaboration may be facilitated through the streaming of video data as the monitoring data. The low-latency of the P2P monitoring transmissions frees up bandwidth for the real-time streaming of the recording data. Audio recordings are uploaded to a central server, where they may be available to authorized collaborators for editing.

A system creates an audio profile. The audio profile may be stored in a database. For example, the audio profile may be securely stored in a database of a social network and associated with a user account. The audio profile may contain data describing the way in which the specific user hears and interprets sounds. Systems and applications which present sounds to the user may access the audio profile and modify the sounds presented to the user based on the data in the audio profile to enhance the audio experience for the user.
