Examples of an audio-video (AV) apparatus are described herein. In an example, the AV apparatus includes a base member. The AV apparatus further includes an AV unit including an image sensor and an audio sensor. The AV unit being actuated to move, with respect to the base member, either in a first direction and activate the audio sensor or in a second direction and activate the image sensor and the audio sensor.

Audio and image sensors' activation

An example device includes a main housing having a rotation track. The device also includes a camera having a plurality of imaging modules. The camera is attached to the main housing externally. A subset of the plurality of imaging modules is to power on by a rotation of the camera via the rotation track.

Imaging modules power on via rotations

Example implementations relate to establishing communication links with computing devices. As an example, a device stand includes a first member including an attachment feature to couple the device stand to a computing device. The device stand also includes a second member including a rotation track to enable the first member to rotate with respect to the second member to decouple the device stand from the device. The device stand further includes a third member including an opening to receive the attachment feature. The second member is situated between the first member and the third member. The device stand further includes a first sidewall having a first slope and a second sidewall having a second slope that is different from the first slope. The first sidewall and the second sidewall are defined by the first member and the second member.

Device stands having sidewalls with different slopes

This invention relates to a vacuum-pump sucker for high-resolution microscopy comprising a sucker body and a transparent plate. The vacuum-pump sucker is designed as a stabilizer for sample stabilization in a clinical optical virtual biopsy system with sub-micron resolution. The sucker is connected with a vacuum pump. As the vacuum pump pumps out air or gas, tissues around the imaged area will be sucked by the sucker and the distance between objective lens and the imaged tissue can be stabilized. In this way, the stability and resolution of the clinical biopsy system can be greatly improved.
