  • Publication number: 20200192539
    Abstract: The disclosure provides an approach for transferring an object between a virtualized desktop infrastructure (VDI) client running on a client device and a remote virtual machine (VM) connected to the VDI client through a network. The method includes receiving, at the client device, an input corresponding to a drag and drop operation of an object between the client device and a remote desktop displayed at the client device, the remote desktop running on the remote VM. The method includes transferring one or more commands corresponding to the drag and drop operation from the client device to the remote VM or from the remote VM to the client device via a first channel. The method also includes transferring the object from the client device to the remote VM or from the remote VM to the client device via a second channel.

  • Patent number: 10651870
    Abstract: System and methods for input path matching in pipelined continuous-time Analog-to Digital Converters (ADCs), including pipelined Continuous-Time Delta Sigma Modulator (CTDSM) based ADCs, includes an input delay circuit disposed in a continuous-time input path from an input of an analog input signal to a first summing circuit of the continuous-time ADC. At least one digital delay line is disposed between an output of an earlier stage sub-ADC (of a plurality of pipelined sub-ADCs) and a sub-digital-to-analog converter (DAC) that is coupled to the first summing circuit, and between the earlier stage sub-ADC and a digital noise cancellation filter. The digital delay line(s) is configured to enable calibration of delay of output of the earlier stage sub-ADC provided to the sub-DAC and the digital noise cancellation filter in accordance with process variations of the input delay match circuit to minimize residue output at first summing circuit.

  • Patent number: 10628181
    Abstract: A system for multimedia redirection where a virtual desktop client device can utilize the multimedia accessories such as digital camera(s) and/or microphone(s) of nearby mobile devices by utilizing image scanning techniques. The mobile device contains a web browser and image scanning technology, such as a QR code reader. The mobile device scans a QR code displayed by the virtual desktop client device and establishes a connection with a web server on the virtual desktop client device. The multimedia stream captured by the multimedia accessories of the mobile device is streamed to the virtual desktop client device using the connection and is redirected by the virtual desktop client device to the virtual desktop. The virtual desktop client device may also redirect multimedia, such as an audio-out stream received from the virtual desktop, to the mobile device in order to playback audio using the speaker of the mobile device.

  • Patent number: 10623500
    Abstract: Techniques are described for virtual desktop sharing and collaboration by utilizing image scanning and a web server. Upon launch, the virtual desktop client sets up a web server on the client computing device. During a virtual desktop session, the owner of the session provides input indicating that the session should be shared. A QR code is displayed on the client device which is encoded with information identifying the web server. When the QR code is scanned by a collaborator's mobile device, a web browser is launched on the mobile device and the web browser connects to the web server on the client computing device. The connection is used to transmit the request to access the virtual desktop session by the mobile device. If the session owner approves the request, the virtual desktop GUI data is streamed by the virtual desktop client to the mobile device over the HTTP connection.

  • Patent number: 10617016
    Abstract: A housing for an electronic device that allows electromagnetic waves to pass through the housing is disclosed. The housing may include a first portion having an opening, a second portion positioned within the opening, and an insert including a protrusion extending into at least a portion of a gap formed between the first portion and the second portion. The housing also may include a first ink layer disposed within the gap and substantially surrounding the protrusion, and a second ink layer disposed within the gap and over the first ink. The first portion, second ink layer, and second portion may cooperate to form a substantially contiguous surface, and the second ink layer may be positioned approximately 5 microns (?m) or less below an exposed surface of the first portion and an exposed surface of the second portion.

  • Publication number: 20190291133
    Abstract: Methods for modifying contours of substrate surfaces are disclosed. Methods include depositing filler material on a critical mating surface of a substrate so as to render the mating surface more mateable with a matching substrate. The filler material can be deposited within or around features or defects on the mating surface such that a final desired surface contour is achieved. In some cases, the final surface contour of the mating surface is planar. This can prevent gaps associated with the features or defects from forming between the substrate and the matching substrate when they are joined together. The final surface contour of the mating surface can be determined by comparing dimensions of the mating surface to dimensions of a reference surface. In some cases, ink jet printing techniques are used to deposit the filler material accurately in prescribed locations and with precise thickness control.

  • Publication number: 20190227820
    Abstract: Techniques are described for extending virtual desktops across different devices. The virtual desktop client sets up a web server on a primary device. A QR code encoded with information identifying the web server is displayed on the primary device and is scanned by a secondary device. A web browser is launched on the secondary device and the web browser connects to the web server on the primary device. The virtual desktop is reconfigured to produce its GUI on two monitors, one for the primary device and one for the secondary device. The GUI data for the second monitor is streamed by the virtual desktop client to the secondary device over the HTTPS connection, to be displayed on the secondary device. GUI data for the first monitor is displayed on the primary device. Inputs are streamed from the secondary device to the primary device and are forwarded to the virtual desktop.

  • Publication number: 20190230152
    Abstract: Techniques are described for file/folder redirection for virtual desktops using image scanning. A virtual desktop client establishes a web server on the client computing device. The virtual desktop client detects input requesting file/folder redirection and displays a QR code encoded with the IP address of the web server. A mobile device scans the QR code using a digital camera and launches a web browser to establish a connection with the web server. User input is entered on the mobile device, indicating one or more files/folders to be shared with the virtual desktop. The information identifying the selected files/folders is sent to the client computing device. The selected files/folders are registered with the virtual desktop and the virtual desktop locally mounts a corresponding folder. The client computing device receives file I/O operations from the virtual desktop and redirects the file I/O operations to the mobile device over a secured HTTP connection.
