Publication number: 20240087215Abstract: A system for generating an advanced surround view for a vehicle includes a plurality of cameras to generate image data. Sensors are configured to determine kinematic data of the vehicle. Kinematic data are also obtained by a visual odometry module and/or a deep-vision mechanism. A processor is configured to process image data captured by the plurality of cameras to generate a 360-degree surround view layer representative of a surrounding area. The processor is further configured to construct an improved bicycle kinematic model for processing kinematic data to generate an under-chassis layer representative of an area under the vehicle. The processor is further configured to generate a 3D vehicle model layer and overlay objects layer. Display screens display a GUI of combined scene of the 360-degree surround view layer, under-chassis layer, 3D vehicle model layer and overlay objects layer as would be viewed from a virtual camera viewpoint.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 26, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Dai Thanh PHAN, Phuc Thien NGUYEN, Chi Thanh NGUYEN, Duc Chan VU, Truong Trung Tin NGUYEN, Dang Quang NGUYEN, Hai Hung BUI

Publication number: 20030172265Abstract: A method and apparatus for secure processing of cryptographic keys, wherein a cryptographic key stored on a token is processed in a secure processor mode using a secure memory. A main system processor is initialized into a secure processing mode, which cannot be interrupted by other interrupts, during a power-on sequence. A user enters a Personal Identification Number (PIN) to unlock the cryptographic key stored on the token. The cryptographic key and associated cryptographic program are then loaded into the secure memory. The secure memory is locked to prevent access to the stored data from any other processes. The user is then prompted to remove the token and the processor exits the secure mode and the system continues normal boot-up operations. When an application requests security processing, the cryptographic program is executed by the processor in the secure mode such that no other programs or processes can observe the execution of the program.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2003Publication date: September 11, 2003Inventors: Son Trung Vu, Quang Phan

Publication number: 20010007131Abstract: A method for validating expansion ROM cards which are loaded into a Personal Computer. A ROM image is signed (encrypted) using a private key and an encryption algorithm to create a digital signature. The digital signature is stored along with the ROM image on an expansion ROM. The system BIOS scans the system for the presence of an expansion ROM and when one is detected, the digital signature is verified (decrypted) using a public key corresponding to the private key. If the decrypted digital signature matches the ROM image (or a hash digest thereof), then the BIOS loads the ROM image.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 1997Publication date: July 5, 2001Inventors: LEONARD J.

Patent number: 6083269Abstract: A method of designing an integrated circuit employs hardware testing rule checking so as to ensure hardware testability and to ensure that automated test program generation will succeed when the design cycle reaches that stage. The method calls for, first, receiving a proposed logic design defined at a functional or behavioral level; second, defining a test bench for simulating operation of the logic design, the test bench including at least one input vector for stimulating the logic design for verifying the operation of the logic design; receiving a predetermined set of one or more hardware testing rules associated with a target tester; simulating operation of the logic design using the test bench; and, prior to releasing the logic design for logic synthesis, checking the simulation for compliance with the hardware testing rule set. Preliminary checking of the design and test bench prior to synthesis can avoid costly corrections later in connection with test program generation.Type: GrantFiled: August 19, 1997Date of Patent: July 4, 2000Assignee: LSI Logic CorporationInventors: Stefan Graef, Quang Phan
