According to an example, a computing device comprises a base portion and a lid portion rotatably coupled to the base portion. The lid portion comprises a platform, an aperture to receive the platform, and a flexible display panel disposed on the platform. Upon a deployment of the platform, an area of the flexible display panel on an upper side of lid portion is to increase such that the area overlaps with the base portion.

Flexible display panels

Examples of electronic devices are described herein. In some examples, an electronic device includes a camera to capture a composite image comprising multiple images of a location. In some examples, the electronic device includes a processor to crop a portion of the composite image based on a field-of-view of the camera. In some examples, the processor is to determine whether a neural network identifies the cropped portion. In some examples, the processor is to generate a unique identifier (ID) for the cropped portion in response to the cropped portion being unidentified by the neural network. In some examples, the processor is to associate the unique ID of the cropped portion with the location.

Location identification with multiple images

In some examples, an electronic device includes a lid section including a first display area disposed on an interior side and a second display area disposed on an exterior side opposite to the interior side, where the interior side is disposed on a top side of a base section when the lid section is closed, and a display panel disposed within the lid section, the display panel including a first portion and a second portion, the first portion visible via the first display area and the second portion visible via the second display area.

Lid display areas

In some examples, the disclosure describes a device that includes a first imaging device coupled to a first side of an expandable display device, a second imaging device coupled to a second side of the expandable display device, an adjustment device to alter a size of the expandable display device to alter a distance between the first imaging device and the second imaging device, and a processor to: determine the distance between the first imaging device and the second imaging device based on a position of the adjustment device, capture first image data from the first imaging device and second image data from the second imaging device at the position of the adjustment device, and generate an image utilizing the first image data, the second image data, and the distance.

Image generation based on altered distances between imaging devices

In example implementations, a method is provided. The method may be executed by a processor. The method includes receiving an image. The image is analyzed to obtain facial features. Contextual information is obtained and a vector including a facial feature class of the facial features and contextual feature classes of the contextual information is generated. A facial recognition is then performed based on the vector.

Facial recognitions based on contextual information

A first application is constrained from calling a middleware subsystem, where the middleware subsystem is able to access at least one feature selected from among a basic input/output system (BIOS) and hardware. The first application accesses the middleware system through a proxy, where accessing the middleware subsystem allows the first application to communicate with the at least one feature.

A thermal oxidation tester is shown for determining thermal stability of a fluid, particularly hydrocarbons when subjected to elevated temperatures. The tendency of the heated fluid to oxidize and (1) form deposits on a surface of a heater tube and (2) form solids therein, are both measured at a given flow rate, temperature and time. The measured results are used to determine whether a fluid sample passes or fails the test. Results of the measurements are recorded. The fluid under test is pumped with a low volume, high pressure, single piston pump with only a small fluctuation (pulsation) in output flow.

A thermal oxidation tester is shown for determining thermal stability of a fluid, particularly hydrocarbons when subjected to elevated temperatures. The tendency of the heated fluid to oxidize and (1) form deposits on a surface of a heater tube and (2) form solids therein, are both measured at a given flow rate, temperature and time. The measured results are used to determine whether a fluid sample passes or fails the test. Results of measurements can be recorded in a memory device on one end of the heater tube on which the deposits were made. A method and apparatus is also provided to determine if the isolated heater tube has an electrical short to ground through the test section housing.

A thermal oxidation tester is shown for determining thermal stability of a fluid, particularly hydrocarbons when subjected to elevated temperatures. The tendency of the heated fluid to oxidize and (1) form deposits on a surface of a heater tube and (2) form solids therein, are both measured at a given flow rate, temperature and time. The measured results are used to determine whether a fluid sample passes or fails the test. At the beginning of each test, the test sample is aerated with dry air until saturation. Simultaneously, the test equipment is primed to remove pockets of air there from. After each test, the test equipment is flushed to remove the test sample there from.

A thermal oxidation tester is shown for determining thermal stability of a fluid, particularly hydrocarbons when subjected to elevated temperatures. The tendency of the heated fluid to oxidize and (1) form deposits on a surface of a heater tube and (2) form solids therein, are both measured at a given flow rate, temperature and time. The measured results are used to determine whether a fluid sample passes or fails the test. Sample flow rate is important in the jet fuel thermal oxidation test. Current practice requires manual drop counting or flow confirmation with the use of volumetric glassware. An apparatus is described to precisely measure the flow rate and automatically perform flow rate check using a drip rate method and/or volumetric method.
