Publication number: 20240124819Abstract: The present disclosure refers to a porous membrane structure that can be used as a cell culture support adapted for specific cells to be grown thereon. The porous membrane structure comprises a membrane having through pores formed therein and at least one coating layer provided on the membrane such that the through pores remain open. Said adaptation is provided by selecting membrane and coating materials based on at least one type of cells to be grown on the at least one coating layer. By so doing, it is possible to alter different properties of the cell culture membrane structure (e.g., chemical and physical properties, such as hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, stiffness, roughness, cell proliferation, attachment, mobility, survivability, etc.), thereby providing control over how a cell interacts with the membrane and other cells.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 7, 2022Publication date: April 18, 2024Applicant: Finnadvance OYInventors: Prateek Singh, Tuan Nguyen

Patent number: 11959175Abstract: Methods and apparatus for use of a fill on demand ampoule are disclosed. The fill on demand ampoule may refill an ampoule with precursor concurrent with the performance of other deposition processes. The fill on demand may keep the level of precursor within the ampoule at a relatively constant level. The level may be calculated to result in an optimum head volume. The fill on demand may also keep the precursor at a temperature near that of an optimum precursor temperature. The fill on demand may occur during parts of the deposition process where the agitation of the precursor due to the filling of the ampoule with the precursor minimally effects the substrate deposition. Substrate throughput may be increased through the use of fill on demand.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2021Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Lam Research CorporationInventors: Tuan Nguyen, Eashwar Ranganathan, Shankar Swaminathan, Adrien LaVoie, Chloe Baldasseroni, Ramesh Chandrasekharan, Frank Loren Pasquale, Jennifer Leigh Petraglia

Publication number: 20240068783Abstract: A method to detect, identify and determine the position of laser points from infrared laser emitters in a firearm training simulation system. The method consists of two steps. This first step combines some common tools such as a camera with a filter switcher and edge and corner detecting algorithms in image processing to provide a fast automatic screen calibrating method. The second step is to detect laser point objects in each frame continuously captured by the camera, and then further process these objects to identify laser shots, filter out noisy objects, and eventually detect simulated shots from different laser emitters and determine the final mapped position of the shot.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 25, 2023Publication date: February 29, 2024Applicant: VIETTEL GROUPInventors: Anh Tuan Vu, Duc Thanh Nguyen, Van Duc Ha, Kim Duc Hoang, Thanh Nhon Nguyen, Anh Tra Duong, Tran Nam Nguyen

Publication number: 20240055003Abstract: Techniques are described herein for detecting and/or enrolling (or commissioning) new “hot commands” that are useable to cause an automated assistant to perform responsive action(s) without having to be first explicitly invoked. In various implementations, an automated assistant may be transitioned from a limited listening state into a full speech recognition state in response to a trigger event. While in the full speech recognition state, the automated assistant may receive and perform speech recognition processing on a spoken command from a user to generate a textual command. The textual command may be determined to satisfy a frequency threshold in a corpus of textual commands. Consequently, data indicative of the textual command may be enrolled as a hot command. Subsequent utterance of another textual command that is semantically consistent with the textual command may trigger performance of a responsive action by the automated assistant, without requiring explicit invocation.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 24, 2023Publication date: February 15, 2024Inventors: Tuan Nguyen, Yuan Yuan
