  • Publication number: 20240089573
    Abstract: A photosensitive assembly includes a circuit board. The circuit board has a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a first through hole extending through the first surface and the second surface. A photosensitive chip is disposed on the second surface. The photosensitive chip has a photosensitive area and a non-photosensitive area connected to the photosensitive area, the non-photosensitive area is electrically connected to one side of the second surface, and the photosensitive area is exposed from the first through hole. A reinforcing plate is disposed on the first surface. A thermal conductive layer is disposed on the photosensitive chip, and the thermal conductive layer includes a silica gel or a metal.

  • Publication number: 20240067207
    Abstract: Systems and methods for detecting roadway lane boundaries are disclosed herein. One embodiment receives image data of a portion of a roadway; receives historical vehicle trajectory data for the portion of the roadway; generates, from the historical vehicle trajectory data, a heatmap indicating, for a given pixel in the heatmap, an extent to which the given pixel coincides spatially with vehicle trajectories in the historical vehicle trajectory data; and projects the heatmap onto the image data to generate a composite image that is used in training a neural network to detect roadway lane boundaries, the projected heatmap acting as supervisory data. The trained neural network is deployed in a vehicle to generate and save map data including detected roadway lane boundaries for use by other vehicles or to control operation of the vehicle itself based, at least in part, on roadway lane boundaries detected by the trained neural network.

  • Patent number: 8538479
    Abstract: The present invention is to provide a sheath type router, which comprises a sheath, a printed circuit board, a battery and at least one antenna. The sheath is foldable and sheathable to a mobile terminal device. The printed circuit board and battery are enclosed in the sheath and electrically coupled together, wherein the printed circuit board includes a central processing unit, a wireless module, a communication module, a subscriber identity module port, at least one input/output port and a power switch, and the central processing unit is electrically coupled to the wireless module, communication module, ports and power switch respectively. When the power switch is turned ON, the printed circuit board is able to receive electric power from the battery, and the mobile terminal device fixed onto the sheath can connect to the wireless module through the antenna as well as connecting to a corresponding network through the communication module.

  • Patent number: 7034664
    Abstract: A general short-range remote control alerting system consists of at least one transmitter or encoder device in communication with at least one receiver or decoder device. Each transmitter or encoder device has a factory pre-set unique identification (ID) code. The receiver or decoder device utilizes a memory device, the memory of which will not change due to power supply interruption and can be read or written or re-written to store ID codes from the various transmitters or encoder devices. The transmitter or encoder device transmits ID code to the receiver or decoder device, and upon matching, the receiver or decoder device causes pre-defined functions to be performed, such as a musical tune to be played or a light to be activated or de-activated. A communication protocol realizing the above system is also disclosed. The present invention can be applied to doorbells, security lights, home controls and security alarm systems.
