Patent number: 12002463Abstract: Systems and methods for enabling voice-based interactions with electronic devices can include a data processing system maintaining a plurality of device action data sets and a respective identifier for each device action data set. The data processing system can receive, from an electronic device, an audio signal representing a voice query and an identifier. The data processing system can identify, using the identifier, a device action data set. The data processing system can identify a device action from device action data set based on content of the audio signal. The data processing system can then identify, from the device action dataset, a command associated with the device action and send the command to the for execution device for execution.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2022Date of Patent: June 4, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Bo Wang, Venkat Kotla, Chad Yoshikawa, Chris Ramsdale, Pravir Gupta, Alfonso Gomez-Jordana, Kevin Yeun, Jae Won Seo, Lantian Zheng, Sang Soo Sung

Patent number: 11989229Abstract: Coordinating processing of audio queries is provided. A system receives a query. The system provides the query to a first digital assistant component and a second digital assistant component for processing. The system receives a first response to the query from the first digital assistant component, and a second response to the query from the second digital assistant component. The first digital assistant component can be authorized to access a database the second digital assistant component is prohibited from accessing. The system determines, based on a ranking decision function, to select the second response to the query from the second digital assistant component. The system provides, responsive to the selection, the second response from the second digital assistant to a computing device.Type: GrantFiled: April 8, 2019Date of Patent: May 21, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Bo Wang, Smita Rai, Max Ohlendorf, Venkat Kotla, Chad Yoshikawa, Abhinav Taneja, Amit Agarwal, Chris Ramsdale, Chris Turkstra

Patent number: 9065254Abstract: Embodiments of the invention describe an illuminator having a light source to originate an illumination beam, wherein the light source further comprises a set of vertical-cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs), including a first VCSEL having a first laser emission wavelength, and a second VCSEL having a second laser emission wavelength different than the first laser emission wavelength. Thus, by varying laser emission wavelengths of VCSELs in a VCSEL array, embodiments of the invention produce low-contrast speckle, and do not limit the imaging capabilities of the host illumination system. In some embodiments of the invention, vertical external cavity surface emitting lasers (VECSELs) are utilized to produce the above described varying laser emission wavelengths.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2014Date of Patent: June 23, 2015Assignee: FLIR Systems, Inc.Inventors: Jonathan Geske, Chad Wang, Elliot Burke

Publication number: 20140010254Abstract: An array of vertical-cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSELs) may be fabricated with very high fill-factors, thereby enabling very high output power densities during pulse, quasi-continuous wave (QCW), and continuous wave (CW) operation. This high fill-factor is achieved using asymmetrical pillars in a rectangular packing scheme as opposed prior art pillar shapes and packing schemes. The use of asymmetrical pillars maintains high efficiency operation of VCSELs by maintaining minimal current injection distance from the metal contacts to the laser active region and by maintaining efficient waste heat extraction from the VCSEL. This packing scheme for very high fill-factor VCSEL arrays is directly applicable for next generation high-power, substrate removed, VCSEL arrays.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2013Publication date: January 9, 2014Applicant: FLIR Systems, Inc.Inventors: Chad Wang, Jonathan Geske
