  • Publication number: 20240103209
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an optical filter and a method of producing the same. In the producing method, a thermal evaporation deposition process of a sacrificial layer, and depositions process of a base layer and a dielectric stack layer are sequentially performed on a substrate having a trench with a specific width, so that the base layer and the dielectric stack layer extend outward to form a solidified structure with a specific length. Next, a fixed layer is affixed to the dielectric stack layer, and the sacrificial layer is removed using a solvent to remove the substrate. As such, structural strength and flatness of the produced optical filter are enhanced, and a volume thereof is reduced, such that the optical filter can be applied to automated processes of miniaturized elements.

  • Patent number: 11461101
    Abstract: Circuitry comprises processing circuitry to process program instructions, in which the program instructions are stored by storage circuitry and the processing circuitry comprises execute-in-place processing circuitry configured to execute the program instructions from the storage circuitry; a prefetch buffer to store program instructions for execution by the processing circuitry; prefetch circuitry to control prefetching of program instructions to the prefetch buffer and to select a next instruction for prefetching; and replacement circuitry to control deletion of instructions from the prefetch buffer to provide storage for newly prefetched program instructions; in which one or both of the prefetch circuitry and the replacement circuitry are configured so that one or both of a selection operation by the prefetch circuitry of a next program instruction for prefetching, and a deletion operation to delete an instruction from the prefetch buffer by the replacement circuitry is dependent upon previously executed p

  • Patent number: 9141777
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an authentication method for electronic apparatus and authentication system, which comprises the steps of: enabling an electronic apparatus to be moved by a user from a first position to a second position; enabling an inertial sensor embedded in the electronic apparatus to detect and thus constructing a three-dimensional continuous trajectory of the electronic apparatus's movement from the first position to the second position in a Cartesian coordination system composed of a first-direction axis, a second-direction axis and a third-direction axis; and enabling a processor embedded in the electronic apparatus to perform either a process for registering the three-dimensional continuous trajectory as a standard movement trajectory; or a comparison between the three-dimensional continuous trajectory and a previously registered standard movement trajectory so as to authenticate the correctness of the three-dimensional continuous trajectory and thus authenticating the electronic app

  • Publication number: 20120290507
    Abstract: A carpool fare organizer is useful when there is at least one passenger and comprises a distance recording unit, a passenger calculating unit, a fare calculating module and at least one display device. The distance recording unit records a get-in distance, a get-out distance and an accumulated distance of each passenger. The passenger calculating unit calculates a number of passengers. The fare calculating module calculates an original fare, an accumulated discount and an economical fare. A method for generating carpool fares comprises steps of recording a get-in distance, a get-out distance and an accumulated distance of each passenger and a number of passengers, and calculating an economical fare with the get-in distance, the get-out distance, the accumulated distance and the number of passengers.
