  • Publication number: 20240156985
    Abstract: Novel 5? untranslated region (UTR)-targeting gene knock-in (KI) compositions and methods of use are disclosed. The gene KI compositions and methods exploit homology-independent targeted integration (HITI)-mediated insertion of a wild-type coding sequence (CDS) into the 5? UTR upstream of a translation initiation element of a mutated variant of the wild-type gene. The 5? UTR-targeting gene KI therapy compositions and methods provide safer and more efficient gene insertion compared to other gene therapy approaches.

  • Patent number: 11860356
    Abstract: This disclosure provides methods and systems that adaptively adjust the gain of the drive signal to a slow-scan mirror to compensate and stabilize the mirror to achieve desired performance metrics. Non-ideal characteristics of the slow-scan mirror, including the mirror and related assembly, exhibit behaviors that impact the overall gain of the device, which changes over time and operating environment. To compensate for these non-ideal characteristics, the drive signal to the slow-scan mirror may need to be adjusted to achieve the desired beam deflection angle. An adaptive inner loop gain control structure may be employed to dynamically adjust the gain of the inner-control loop to achieve a target gain such that the overall gain variations from the slow scan mirror and other components are scan mirror such that compensated and stabilized. The parameters, logic and blocks of the inner loop gain control may be implemented in hardware, software, or combinations thereof.

  • Publication number: 20230384582
    Abstract: The configuring of a micromirror to suppress a resonance of the micromirror. As part of the configuring process, the micromirror is subjected to multiple actuation frequencies, and the micromirror response is measured in response to at least some of these actuation frequencies. A resonant frequency of the micromirror is then determined using at least some of the measured mechanical responses. Then, depending on this determined resonant frequency of the micromirror, notch filter parameters are selected. There is more than one possibility for notch filter parameters, where the selected possibility depends on the determined resonant frequency. The notch filter is then configured with the selected notch filter parameters.

  • Patent number: 11614615
    Abstract: A laser beam display device that can dynamically control the resonant frequency of a mirror is provided. The increase the reliability of a device by controlling the resonant frequency of a mirror instead of requiring components of a display device to react to changes in the resonant frequency of a mirror. A controller can drive a mirror with an input signal, receive a signal or data indicating a target resonant frequency, and bias the input signal to control the resonant frequency of the mirror. In some embodiments, the controller can also receive a feedback signal from a mirror indicating a current resonant frequency. The controller can also bias the input signal to increase or decrease the current resonant frequency. By dynamically controlling the resonant frequency of a mirror, a device can minimize any difference between the current resonant frequency detected in a feedback signal and the target resonant frequency.

  • Patent number: 11514830
    Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein provide apparatus, methods and systems that adaptively adjust the signal waveform (or waveshape) of the drive signal to a slow-scan mirror to compensate for non-linearities observed in the slow-scan feedback signal from a slow-scan mirror. Over large scan angles and high temperatures, the slow-scan mirror in a laser beam scanning device may exhibit a nonlinear response to the drive signal that results in poor image quality issues such as bright lines, bands in the display image, and image distortion. The presently disclosed technologies track the linearity performance of the overall system by detecting non-linearities in waveform of the slow-scan feedback signal real time, and consequently apply a pre-distortion to the drive waveform to compensate for these detected non-linearities. The parameters, logic and blocks of the control may be implemented in hardware, software or combinations thereof.
