Abstract: Disclosed are a multi-modality molecular imaging probe, and a preparation method and use thereof. The multi-modality molecular imaging probe has an ABA structure, with a magnetic functional unit of a gadolinium complex at the center, and two identical phosphorescent functional units of an iridium complex, which are reasonably integrated into the same one complex molecule. The multi-modality molecular imaging probe simultaneously introduces two optical functional units of the iridium complex and one magnetic functional unit of a gadolinium chelate in the same one complex molecule, which exhibits magnetic-optical dual functional properties. It therefore could be used to prepare both a contrast agent for magnetic resonance imaging and an optical probe for optical imaging.

Abstract: A food processing device, comprising a bowl with a lid, the lid is provided with a food feed tube. The device also has a spiral cutting means provided at the top of the bowl such that as food enters the bowl via the food feed tube it is cut into continuous ribbons or strips. The spiral cutting means comprises a spiral cutter disc base having a disc-set with a plurality of different types of spiral cutting discs, each of which can be separately aligned with the food feed tube to cut the food into a different shaped continuous ribbon or strip. By rotating the spiral cutter disc base the user can line up a first cutting disc with the food feed tube, make some food cuts, then turn the spiral cutter disc base so that a second cutter disk is lined up with the feed tube and then make a different food cut. In this way the user can cut food into different sizes of ribbon, spaghetti, etc. to achieve a superior presentation of food (e.g. fruits and vegetables).

Abstract: Examples are disclosed herein that relate to a six degree-of-freedom (DOF) input device. An example provides an input device comprising a body, a sensor system configured to sense motion of the input device with six DOF, a communication interface and a controller. The controller is configured to transmit output based on sensor data from the sensor system for use in controlling an application in a first mode in which each of the six degrees-of-freedom is used as input, the application being controlled in the first mode in response to detecting a first condition, and transmit output based on sensor data from the sensor system for use in controlling the application in a second mode in which one or more of the six degrees-of-freedom is not used as input, the application being controlled in the second mode in response to detecting a second condition.
