Abstract: A method for removing foreign substances from a camera system is provided. The camera system includes a camera device with a transparent cover having a piezoelectric component. First, a type of the foreign substances is identified based on temperature, an image captured by the camera system, and a voltage change of the piezoelectric component. A sequence of frequencies is applied to the piezoelectric component and a resonant frequency is acquired. Thereafter, the foreign substances are removed from the camera system. A vibration frequency and a vibration time period for the piezoelectric component are determined according to the identified type of the foreign substances. The vibration frequency is based on the resonant frequency. The piezoelectric component is driven with the vibration frequency and the vibration time period, such that at least a portion of the foreign substances are removed from the transparent cover through vibration of the piezoelectric component.

Abstract: Systems and methods for processing commands at a random access memory. A series of commands are received to read data from the random access memory or to write data to the random access memory. The random access memory can process commands at a first rate when the series of commands matches a pattern, and at a second, slower, rate when the series of commands does not match the pattern. A determination is made as to whether the series of commands matches the pattern based on at least a current command and a prior command in the series of commands. A ready signal is asserted when said determining determines that the series of commands matches the pattern, where the random access memory is configured to receive and process commands faster than the second rate when the pattern is matched and the ready signal is asserted over a period of multiple commands.
