Publication number: 20240077694Abstract: A head-mounted device may include optical assemblies for presenting images to a user. Motors may be used to adjust the spacing between the optical assemblies to accommodate different interpupillary distances. The head-mounted device may have a housing that receives a custom-fit removable light seal with vision correction lenses. A sensor or wireless transceiver in the housing may receive interpupillary distance information from the light seal. Based on this information, the motors may adjust the optical assemblies so that the optical assemblies are spaced apart by an amount that matches the interpupillary distance associated with the user of the custom-fit removable light seal.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 23, 2023Publication date: March 7, 2024Inventors: Elias Izpisua-Rodriguez, Wey-Jiun Lin, Forrest C Wang, Yoonhoo Jo

Patent number: 9471414Abstract: Techniques for detecting and addressing performance issues related to a mobile application are provided. Examples of performance issues include a backend service (to which the mobile application is configured to transmit requests) becoming unavailable or overloaded, a third-party service that the mobile application relies on for data pertaining to the backend service becoming unavailable, and security vulnerabilities or code irregularities in the code of the mobile application. A fallback service that is separate from the backend service detects the performance issues and sends fallback data to the mobile application. The fallback data may cause the mobile application to operate in an offline mode, where the mobile application requests locally stored data instead of transmitting data requests to the backend service. The fallback data may reference page views that the mobile application downloads and displays instead of other page views that are based on data from the backend service.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2014Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: Apollo Education Group, Inc.Inventors: David Le, Manish Upendran, Ted Wong, Jo-Jo Lin, Bryce Griner, Isabel George
