  • Publication number: 20240104479
    Abstract: In some implementations, a server device may receive an indication of a merge operation for source code associated with the software platform and a source code repository associated with the software platform. The server device may identify communication addresses associated with respective users from one or more users associated with the merge operation. The server device may generate feedback survey request data based on roles associated with the respective users. The server device may transmit, to the communication addresses, the feedback survey request data based on receiving the indication of the merge operation. The server device may receive feedback data associated with a user in response to the feedback survey request data. The server device may store the feedback data in a database, wherein feedback data is stored in connection with an identifier of the software platform and with an indication of a role of the user.

  • Publication number: 20230358940
    Abstract: An optical device comprises two flat plates each having a reflective flat surface, and two flat spacer plates of thickness H each having a reflective sidewall. The flat plates and flat spacer plates are arranged as a stack with the reflective flat surfaces facing each other and the flat spacer plates arranged in a single plane and disposed between the two flat plates with the reflective sidewalls facing each other and with a gap between the two reflective sidewalls. The facing reflective flat surfaces and facing reflective sidewalls define a light tunnel passage with dimension H in the direction transverse to the single plane. The facing reflective sidewalls may be mutually parallel and spaced by a constant gap W to provide a light tunnel passage with constant cross-section H×W, or may be oriented at an angle to provide a tapered light tunnel passage.

  • Publication number: 20230261123
    Abstract: A light generator comprises a light conversion device and a light source arranged to apply a light beam to the light conversion element. The light conversion device includes an optoceramic or other solid phosphor element comprising one or more phosphors embedded in a ceramic, glass, or other host, a metal heat sink, and a solder bond attaching the optoceramic phosphor element to the metal heat sink. The optoceramic phosphor element does not undergo cracking in response to the light source applying a light beam of beam energy effective to heat the optoceramic phosphor element to the phosphor quenching point.

  • Patent number: 11624494
    Abstract: A white light source includes a light source and a phosphor conversion component. The light source emits short wavelength light peaked at a peak wavelength of 570 nanometers or shorter. The phosphor conversion component includes a light conversion layer comprising a phosphor effective to convert the short wavelength light to converted light. The light conversion layer includes light passages comprising openings or passage material that does not comprise the phosphor and is light transmissive for the short wavelength light. The light source is disposed respective to the phosphor conversion component so as to illuminate the light conversion layer with the emitted short wavelength light and to pass the short wavelength light through the light passages.

  • Patent number: 11503109
    Abstract: A device may receive a request for an operation that includes a plurality of processing steps may identify metadata information. The device may determine a first processing step, and select a first microservice to call and a first transport protocol to utilize to call the first microservice. The device may call the first microservice, and may receive, from the first microservice a first output. The device may determine a second processing step, and select a second microservice to call and a second transport protocol to utilize to call the second microservice, wherein the second transport protocol is different from the first transport protocol. The device may call the second microservice, and may receive, from the second microservice, a second output. The device may provide a response to the request based on the first output and the second output.
