For this Entertainment, Arts and Sports Law Section. special 30th anniversary issue of the Journal, Elissa has compiled an outstanding collection of articles that look back over the last three decades, cover today’s hot topics, and look ahead to what the reasonably foreseeable future holds in store for the various areas in which EASL mem- bers practice. Another shout-out goes to our new Section liaison at NYSBA, Kristina Maldonado, who joined our merry band in August 2018. She too stands on the shoulders of former Section liaisons, who also deserve their own shout-outs: the relatively short tenured Sydney Joy (who, after only four months as EASL’s liaison, resigned to become Facili- ties Manager at the Cornell Cooperative), and Beth Gould (who, after serving as EASL’s liaison from December 2011 through April 2018, resigned to become Director of Mem- bership at the Girl Scouts). Sydney and Beth are missed, but Kristina hit the ground running inter alia helping to organize EASL’s 2018 Fall Meeting, which took place on October 18 at the NYC offices of

    Stanford iFarm Teams – The Final Project STANFORD DOCKET NO. S13­015 A NOVEL APPROACH FOR DETECTING HEAD COLLISIONS IN SPORTS TEAM 5 Team: Charlie Ouyang, Alex Trzebucki Mentors: David Taylor, Amy Wilkinson 1. TECHNOLOGY DESCRIPTION, STATUS AND LANDSCAPE A. Idea Description The technology S13­015, “Novel approach for detecting head collisions in sports,” was invented by Bruce Cam, David B. Camarillo, and Lyndia Chun Wu. It consists of two main components: 1) an instrumented mouthguard containing a triaxial linear accelerometer and a triaxial gyrometer, along with other supporting electronics, and 2) an impact detection algorithm that distinguishes between non­impact events and true head impacts. B. Potential Commercial Applications of Technology The primary commercial application of this technology is detection of head impacts in contact sports, helmeted and non­helmeted, where head impact is of concern. Such sports include football, soccer, boxing, hockey, and lacrosse, and include all levels from amateur to professional. Additional commercial applications of the technology may include those in the following sectors: ● Military: Impact­related activities such as parachuting ● Automotive: Safety evaluation (pedestrian and vehicle) ● Elderly care: Head impact detection during falling events C. Features and Benefits The technology is able to provide high accuracy, raw kinematic data and can accurately classify recorded events as impact or non­impact (offline or in real time). The potential uses of this data are numerous. In the short term, the main value of instantaneous and cumulative head impact data lies in its potential use for prompting further clinical evaluation of players during or after sporting events. In the long term, this data will be broadly useful as a correlate to accepted clinical measures, ultimately better informing research on head impacts and leading to the development of devices and policies for improved detection, and more importantly prevention or minimization of head impacts and related sequelae.

  • Journal of Intellectual Property and Entertainment Law
    NEW YORK UNIVERSITY JOURNAL OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY AND ENTERTAINMENT LAW VOLUME 5 FALL 2015 NUMBER 1 FOREWORD THE INTERNATIONAL EVOLUTION OF INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS RICHARD A. EPSTEIN* Two of the papers included in this issue of the NYU Journal of Intellectual Property and Entertainment Law illustrate, in the context of intellectual property law, a tension that exists across all areas of international law. To what extent should the rules of different countries be harmonized? Or, alternatively, to what extent should these laws be adapted to the local conditions within any given country? A moment’s reflection should indicate why there is no pat answer to this challenge in any area of substantive law. On the one side, a stout commitment to uniformity of law facilitates the cross-border transactions that are the life-blood of international trade and cooperation. The ability of private parties and government officials to know that the rules of the game are constant in all arenas should lead to a massive simplification of the overall operation of the international legal order. The gains from such simplification should be substantial even in transactions requiring harmonization between only two legal systems. But with intellectual property, nothing is more common than for key transactions to have a global reach that could * Laurence A.

    sustainability Article The Effects of Live Platform Exterior Design on Sustainable Impulse Buying: Exploring the Mechanisms of Self-Efficacy and Psychological Ownership Xiaoxiao Gong 1,* , Zuoliang Ye 2, Kuo Liu 1 and Na Wu 3 1 School of Business Administration, Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, Chengdu 611130, China; [email protected] 2 School of International Business, Southwestern University of Finance and Economics, Chengdu 611130, China; [email protected] 3 School of Business Administration, Zhongnan University of Economics and Law, Wuhan 430073, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 1 March 2020; Accepted: 15 March 2020; Published: 19 March 2020 Abstract: The sensory upgrading facilitated by live platforms, such as YouTube Live, Twitch, and Periscope, can facilitate much better interactions and understanding between a product, its brand, and the user. The question of how to enhance sustainable marketing effects using exterior design is currently a major topic in the live streaming marketing sector. The effect of the exterior design of a live platform on the impulse purchases of its consumers has rarely been discussed by academic research. Accordingly, based on the theory of self-determination, this study explored the direct effects of exterior design, self-efficacy, psychological ownership, and impulse buying by using multiple linear regression, and examined the indirect effects of these variables using the structural equation model. In this study, 534 samples were collected from live consumers, and our hypotheses were verified by employing hierarchical regression. As revealed from the results obtained, the self-efficacy and psychological ownership exhibited by consumers exerted synchronous and chain mediating effects on the relationships between the exterior design of the platform and consumer impulse buying.
