In a method and apparatus for magnetic resonance imaging, an inverse recovery pulse is emitted and execution of an image acquisition sequence wherein, magnetic resonance image data are received is begun after a delayed recovery time of the inverse recovery pulse. A magnetic resonance image is reconstructed from the acquired magnetic resonance image data. The longitudinal relaxation time is obtained based on a known time after the inverse recovery pulse and a magnetization quantity of the known time. A second relaxation time is thereby able to be fully taken into account, so as to avoid a deviation of the longitudinal relaxation time. The range of application of the Look-Locker method is expanded, so that the present invention obtains an accurate longitudinal relaxation time no matter whether a delay exists before a sampled sequence.

Method and apparatus for magnetic resonance imaging

A receiving module, checking module, and a controller are provided. The receiving module is configured for receiving external wireless signals. The checking module is configured for checking whether a current wireless signal comprises checking codes of a control signal which is configured for controlling the electronic device and, if yes, generating an activation signal. The controller is configured for switching the electronic device into a power-saving mode if no external wireless signal is received after a predetermined time period and switching the electronic device into a normal mode if the activation signal is received.

Electronic device with remote control function

An exemplary system for sensing the state and position of a robot is provided. The system measures the acceleration and angular velocity of the robot and calculates a velocity, and a displacement of the robot. The state of the robot according to the acceleration and the velocity vector, of the robot, is determined. The system includes an alarm that activates according to the state of the robot. The system also compensates for any inaccuracy of the measured displacements.

System for sensing state and position of robot

A battery charger includes a housing, an electrical connector, magnets, and sensors. The electrical connector with a magnet attached thereon is received in the housing. The electrical connector is connected to the rear wall of the housing via an elastic member. The electrical connector is capable of extending out of the housing and through an opening in the housing. Another magnet is secured at a front end of the housing. When an attractive force is induced between the magnets, the electrical connector is extended towards and through the opening in the housing. The sensors are configured for detecting that a robot is in position to be charged and for turning on the attractive force between the magnets.
