  • POWER DELIVERY SOURCE DEVICE AND POWER DELIVERY SYSTEM WITH ELECTRIC ARC SUPPRESSION
    Publication number: 20230327561
    Abstract: A power delivery system includes a PD source device and a PD sink device. The PD source device is configured to detect its connection status with the PD sink device and determine whether its power supply is high-voltage operation. When determining that the PD source device is supplying high-voltage power and detecting that the PD source device is detached from the PD sink device, the PD source device is configured to provide an oscillating rapid discharging path for its output capacitor, thereby rapidly reducing its output voltage and suppressing electrical arc.

  • Stereoscopic display device and display method thereof
    Patent number: 11778166
    Abstract: A stereoscopic display device and a display method thereof are provided. The stereoscopic display device includes a display panel, a lens array, an image sensor, and a processing circuit. The display panel displays a three-dimensional image. The lens array is disposed on a transmission path of the three-dimensional image. The image sensor acquires a sensed image of a viewing field of the display panel. The processing circuit is coupled to the lens array and the image sensor. The processing circuit calculates an actual eye position of a user in the viewing field according to reference coordinates of a reference position in the sensed image and eye coordinates of the user in the sensed image. The processing circuit adjusts a liquid crystal rotation angle of the lens array according to the actual eye position, so that a viewing position of the three-dimensional image matches the actual eye position.
