Apparatus, System, And Method For Efficiently Driving Backplanes Of Displays With Linear Control, Ajit Ninan
Apparatus, System, And Method For Efficiently Driving Backplanes Of Displays With Linear Control, Ajit Ninan
Defensive Publications Series
Circuitry may control and/or drive the brightness and/or luminance of pixels within displays. For example, an AR head-mounted display (HMD) may include and/or represent circuitry, such as a driver unit, that controls and/or drives the brightness and/or luminance of a perceptual quantizer (PQ) and/or gamma display. In one example, the circuitry may implement 8-bit counters to control the brightness and/or luminance of pixels within the PQ or gamma display. Unfortunately, such 8-bit counters may fail to enable the display to accurately reproduce perceptual brightness and/or luminance consistent with and/or under the Barten sensitivity curve and/or model. In another example, the …
Sensor Fusion For Low Latency Palm Rejection Using Artificial Intelligence, Hadi Zadeh, Fei Wu
Sensor Fusion For Low Latency Palm Rejection Using Artificial Intelligence, Hadi Zadeh, Fei Wu
Defensive Publications Series
On devices with multiple input modalities, it can be difficult to ensure input accuracy, false palm detection, and provide low latency in the user experience of providing input and receiving corresponding response. Latency can come from the operating system application, or firmware catching up with speedy input from the user. In current devices, data from various input sources is used independently which can cause false palm detection and also introduces latency. This disclosure describes a central multi-sensor input hub (sensor hub) that enhances user input experiences on devices that support multiple input devices. The sensor hub can be implemented as …
Early Detection Of Mobile Device Battery Swelling Using Pressure-Sensitive Robot, Hadi Zadeh, Boris Mittelberg
Early Detection Of Mobile Device Battery Swelling Using Pressure-Sensitive Robot, Hadi Zadeh, Boris Mittelberg
Defensive Publications Series
This disclosure describes automated techniques for early detection of swollen batteries in mobile devices using pressure-sensitive touchscreen testing using a pressure-sensitive robot. Subtle physical deformations in a device caused by battery swelling that can lead to critical safety hazards can be detected. The robot performs automated regression testing on devices that include batteries. During testing, the robot continually scans the device surface and reports changes in the surface profile. By changing the Z-height, the robot can be used to detect micrometer-level increases in the device height that can be indicative of one or more batteries of the device being swollen. …

This disclosure describes techniques that build an understanding of forms using semantic and structural analysis, build contextual awareness based on profile data for entities completing a form and a dynamic knowledge base, and incorporate adaptive learning for error detection in forms. Techniques such as natural language processing, named entity recognition, question answering engines, …
Local Tone Mapping Of Mixed Hdr And Sdr Content That Preserves Sdr Elements, Alec Mouri
Local Tone Mapping Of Mixed Hdr And Sdr Content That Preserves Sdr Elements, Alec Mouri
Defensive Publications Series
In many contexts, users view mixed high and standard dynamic range content (HDR/SDR) on their devices. For example, on HDR-capable smartphones, a user may view an HDR image with SDR user interface (UI) elements overlaid on it. In such contexts, when the user captures a screenshot and stores the result in an SDR image file, tone mapping can result in degradation of the SDR elements on the image. This disclosure describes a local tone mapping approach that can be used to convert HDR-SDR mixed content to SDR, where HDR elements are tonemapped without impacting SDR elements. The approach can be …
Photo Composition Guidance Based On Scene And Subject Analysis, Kshitij Suresh Gaikar, Pushkar Mittal
Photo Composition Guidance Based On Scene And Subject Analysis, Kshitij Suresh Gaikar, Pushkar Mittal
Defensive Publications Series
This disclosure describes techniques to guide a user in the composition of photos captured by a camera device, based on automatic scene analysis and subject framing. A camera device prompts the user to pan the device across a scene surrounding the user to capture a scene photo, e.g., a 360-degree panoramic photo. Additionally, the user captures a subject photo showing an intended subject for a new photo. An artificial intelligence (AI) model is used to analyze the scene photo and the subject photo. The model outputs locations and/or poses for the subject in the scene that makes for an appealing …

Programmable Functional Lattice Structures, Hp Inc
Programmable Functional Lattice Structures, Hp Inc
Defensive Publications Series
Lattice structures provide a unique opportunity to engineer material properties, even those not yet exists in solid materials. Through programmable designs, which can be realized using advanced manufacturing techniques such as 3D printing, customer and design specific material properties can be achieved. We present a method for programming lattice structures by adjusting the positions of nodes along beams (referred to as 'offsets'), while maintaining a fixed lattice topology, incorporating a method to accurately predict the programed lattice structures’ property using machine learning-based algorithms. The flexibility of programming lattice structures by node offsets enables the realization of a broad spectrum of …

Intelligently Controlled Waste Heat Tyre Heating, Konrad Hirschbeck
Defensive Publications Series
The new idea describes a system of intelligent exhaust air control for tyre heating. For this purpose, air flows through the lower, central cooling air intake into the radiator/heat exchanger while the vehicle is travelling, similar to the current state of the art. This air cools the battery and other important components indirectly via the heat exchanger before leaving the vehicle through the underbody.

Deep Content Understanding For Recipe Guidance Using A Large Language Model, Nagaraj Kota, Varsha Kukreja, Jatin Jindal
Defensive Publications Series
Online recipe searches performed by users are often highly personalized; users seek specific culinary guidance, cooking methods, styles, etc. A large language model (LLM) can be used to generate recipe insights. However, an LLM can generate ungrounded results, and/or miss specific nuances of recipes along dimensions specified by the user. This disclosure describes techniques that leverage a large language model (LLM) to mine, aggregate, and summarize recipe information across multiple pages/sources and to deliver personalized, contextual, and insightful responses to user queries for recipes via a deep understanding of the pages/sources of the recipe. Recipe tips and guidance snippets are …

Annotating Table Data Using Separate Tables, Lenny Turetsky, Daniel V. Klein
Defensive Publications Series
There are no mechanisms for users to provide comments on graphs and charts with aggregated data or at data line level generated from a database. Solutions such as changing schemas of the original database tables or making duplicates of the original tables are sub-optimal and require substantial user effort. This disclosure describes techniques that enable users to add annotations to data records in a database and to retrieve such annotations using data queries, including while extracting aggregations of data. While aggregating the data, annotations from reference data can be included when data is grouped by a particular field. Annotations can …
