  • Patent number: 11982866
    Abstract: An optical element driving mechanism is provided and includes a fixed assembly, a movable assembly, a driving assembly and a stopping assembly. The fixed assembly has a main axis. The movable assembly is configured to connect an optical element, and the movable assembly is movable relative to the fixed assembly. The driving assembly is configured to drive the movable assembly to move relative to the fixed assembly. The stopping assembly is configured to limit the movement of the movable assembly relative to the fixed assembly within a range of motion.

  • Patent number: 11984442
    Abstract: A layout includes a first and a second standard cells abutting along a boundary line. The first cell includes first fins. An edge of the first fins closest to and away from the boundary line by a distance D1. A first gate line over-crossing the first fins protrudes from the edge by a length L1. The second cell includes second fins. An edge of the second fins closest to and away from the boundary line by a distance D2. A second gate line over-crossing the second fins protrudes from the edge by a length L2. Two first dummy gate lines at two sides of the first fins and two second dummy lines at two sides of the second fins are respectively away from the boundary line by a distance S. The lengths L1 and L2, the distances S, D1 and D2 have the relationships: L1?D1?S, L2?D2?S, and D1?D2.

  • Publication number: 20230334629
    Abstract: A method for labeling an image object and a circuit system are provided. In the method, an object classification method is used to segment an image into one or more regions. Each of the regions can be classified into one classification assigned with a classification label. A depth estimation method is used to estimate a depth of each pixel of the image. Whether or not the depth of the pixel matches the classification of the region to which the pixel belongs is determined. When the depth of the pixel matches the classification of the region, a post-processing process is performed on the image based on weights assigned to the regions according to the classification label of the region. Conversely, when the depth of the pixel does not match the classification of the region, the pixel is regarded as noise that does not require the post-processing process.

  • Patent number: 11145266
    Abstract: A method and a circuit for viewing-angle image compensation applied to a flat panel display are provided. A viewing-angle image compensation scheme is applied to an input image for improving a problem of color shift caused by a large viewing angle. The method further solves the blur effect in high frequency regions and color bleeding in low saturation regions of the input image after viewing-angle image compensation. In the method, a frequency distribution of the input image is detected and decremental frequency weights are assigned to the regions having high to low frequencies. A saturation distribution of the input image is detected and incremental saturation weights are assigned to the regions having high to low saturations. The weights assigned to the regions are used to designate degrees of the viewing-angle image compensation. The method can effectively reduce the effect of the viewing-angle image compensation on the image.

  • Patent number: 9681584
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a rapidly removable thermal connector including a retainer and a clamper. The retainer has a first wedge connected with a convexity of a first two-convexity tenon and a second wedge. At the outer end of the first wedge has a mortise to allocate a convexity of the first two-convexity tenon; at the inner end of the second wedge has a mortise to allocate a convexity of a second two-convexity tenon. The clamper is used to hold the retainer. At the interior of the outer end of the clamper has a movable unit which is connected to the clamper with a bolt at one end and has a vertical concavity at the other end to match the first convexity of the first two-convexity tenon. At the interior of the inner end of the clamper has a mortise which allocates the fourth convexity of the second two-convexity tenon. The third convexity of the second two-convexity tenon is connected to a mortise at the inner end of the second wedge.
