Abstract: Systems and methods for beamforming include a device including at least one of a head wearable display (HWD) or a console. The device establishes a first connection between an active HWD radio-frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) and an active console RFIC. The device compares a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) of the first connection to an MCS threshold. The device performs MCS measurements for a second connection of at least one of an idle HWD RFIC or an idle console RFIC, while the first connection is maintained, in response to the MCS not satisfying the MCS threshold. The device compares the MCS measurements of the second connection to the MCS threshold. The device switches to the second connection when at least one of the one or more MCS measurements satisfies the MCS threshold and/or above the MCS of the first connection.

The color ambient light sensor may have a tunable wavelength filter such as an electrically adjustable Fabry-Perot resonator. A light collimator may be interposed between the display cover layer and the Fabry-Perot resonator to collimate ambient light that is passed to the Fabry-Perot resonator. A light detector measures the light passing through the Fabry-Perot resonator.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with a display mounted in a housing. The display may have an array of pixels that form an active area and may have an inactive area that runs along an edge of the active area. A color ambient light sensor may gather ambient light measurements through a window in an opaque masking layer in the inactive area. The color ambient light sensor may have photodiodes with different spectral sensitivities and may have a dark current photodiode that is insensitive to light. A set of analog-to-digital converters may be used to digitize photodiode signals from the photodiodes. A switch array may be used to distribute signals from the photodiodes to each of the analog-to-digital converters. This allows the output of each photodiode to be averaged over multiple analog-to-digital converters to remove any impact of variations in performance between converters.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for enabling rapid transactions over a speed limited bus are disclosed. In one exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a host controller and an application specific integrated circuit (ASIC) are connected via an Inter-Integrated Circuit (I2C) Bus that is further adapted to enable a simplified signaling scheme. Unlike traditional I2C bus transactions which are flexible but speed limited, the simplified signaling scheme reduces bus overhead and enables rapid transactions. In an exemplary context, the simplified signaling scheme enables the ASIC to rapidly configure a series of photodiodes with different channel gain parameters so as to, for example, measure heartbeats by visually detecting a pulse within human flesh.

Abstract: An electronic device may be provided with an ambient light sensor. An analog-to-digital converter may be used to digitize ambient light measurements made with the ambient light sensor. Control circuitry in the electronic device may be used to adjust the brightness of a display and take other actions in the electronic device based on the digitized ambient light measurements. The analog-to-digital converter may be a hybrid analog-to-digital converter having a most-significant-bit analog-to-digital converter circuit branch based on an integrating analog-to-digital converter and a least-significant-bit analog-to-digital converter circuit branch based on a successive-approximation-register analog-to-digital converter. The most-significant-bit branch may produce an output based a reset count for an integrator that is reset a number of times during a measurement period. The least-significant-bit branch may produce an output by digitizing an output from the integrator upon termination of the measurement period.

Abstract: A pneumatic vehicle tire of a radial type of construction is for heavy trucks and has a four-ply belt (3). Each belt ply (7, 8, 9, 10) contains steel cords as reinforcing elements which run parallel to one another in each belt ply. Not only are the angles (?, ?) that the steel cords in the second and third belt plies (8, 9) form with the circumferential direction (A-A) approximately equal, but also the angles (?, ?) that the steel cords in the first and fourth belt plies (7, 10) form with the circumferential direction (A-A) are likewise approximately equal.

Abstract: An ambient light sensor that is operable in high gain mode and low gain mode is provided. The high gain mode may help provide satisfactory sensitivity at low light levels but may generate saturated output levels in bright ambient lighting conditions. Low gain mode may therefore be switched into use when bright ambient lighting conditions are detected. The ambient light sensor may be placed in high gain mode by default. An auto-gain switch controller may detect whether the ambient light reading is saturated during a given period of time. In response to determining that the ambient light reading is saturated for a programmable number of consecutive time periods, the auto-gain switch controller may reset and switch the ambient light sensor to the low gain mode. The gain state may optionally be embedded into the ambient light sensor output.
