  • Patent number: 11948920
    Abstract: Provided are a semiconductor device and a method for manufacturing the same, and a semiconductor package. The semiconductor device includes a die stack and a cap substrate. The die stack includes a first die, second dies stacked on the first die, and a third die stacked on the second dies. The first die includes first through semiconductor vias. Each of the second dies include second through semiconductor vias. The third die includes third through semiconductor vias. The cap substrate is disposed on the third die of the die stack. A sum of a thickness of the third die and a thickness of the cap substrate ranges from about 50 ?m to about 80 ?m.

  • Publication number: 20240104889
    Abstract: A system for detecting a proximate object includes one or more cameras and one or more illuminators. The proximate object is detected by obtaining image data captured by the one or more cameras, where the image data is captured when at least one of the one or more illuminators are illuminated, determining brightness statistics from the image data, and determining whether the brightness statistics satisfies a predetermined threshold. The proximate object is determined to be detected in accordance with a determination that the brightness statistics satisfies the predetermined threshold.

  • Publication number: 20240105046
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed to enable performance of a lens distance test in head-mounted displays (HMDs) to determine the distance between a user's eye and a lens of the HMD (e.g. the display lens in a virtual or augmented reality device). In embodiments, the HMD is configured to determine a current pose of the eye based on a series of captured eye images. The pose information is used to determine the distance from the apex of the cornea to a closest point on the lens. If the determined distance is too small or too large, an alert or notification is generated instructing to adjust the HMD or change the light seal to achieve better distancing, in order to reduce the risk of eye injury and/or improve user experience. In embodiments, the lens distance test may be repeated during a user session to reevaluate and/or monitor the lens distance.

  • Publication number: 20230377194
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include an inconspicuous eye enrollment for user devices through the simultaneous or near-simultaneous eye characteristic tracking and eye model updating. The implementations disclosed herein direct light towards an eye of a user to produce glint reflections and obtain, via one or more sensors, image frames comprising depictions of the glint reflections. Based on those image frames, the implementations disclosed herein track eye characteristics and update an eye model of the eye during a period of time between obtaining a first image frame of the image frames and obtaining a second image frame of the image frames.
