Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed towards techniques for adjusting a network connection of an accessory. In some examples, the computing device can determine that the accessory is not connected to a network (e.g., the same network to which the computing device is connected). The network may utilize a first connection type. Using a second type of connection, the computing device may determine an appropriate network for connection with the accessory. The computing device may then transmit instructions to the accessory, using the second type of connection, to adjust its network connection to be connected to the determined network. The determined network may use the first connection type.

An embodiment of the receiver circuit includes a front-end circuit configured to generate an equalized signal, a clock generator circuit configured to generate a clock signal using a plurality of samples of the equalized signal, and a measurement circuit. The measurement circuit is configured to monitor a frequency of the clock signal and activate an indication signal in response to determining that the frequency of the clock signal exceeds a threshold frequency. In response to activation of the indication signal, the clock generator circuit is configured to set the frequency of the clock signal to a particular frequency.

Abstract: Disclosed techniques relate to circuitry configured to aggregate and report usage information in a distributed processor (e.g., a GPU). In some embodiments, graphics processor circuitry that includes at least first and second portions that are respectively configured to execute sets of graphics work. First utilization circuitry may track execution time for sets of graphics work on the first portion of the graphics processor circuitry and second utilization circuitry may track execution time for sets of graphics work on the second portion of the graphics processor circuitry. Command queue circuitry may store multiple different command queues. Control circuitry may access the first and second utilization circuitry and aggregate utilization data on a per-command-queue basis, where for a given command queue, the aggregated utilization data indicates respective utilization of the first and second portions of the graphics processor circuitry.

Abstract: A torque feedback mechanism for a trigger or lever using a rotary reluctance engine is disclosed. In some examples, the rotary reluctance engine includes two fixed asymmetric core/coil assemblies located on one or both sides of a permanent magnet. In some examples, the core/coil assemblies are fixed in place, and the permanent magnet is coupled to the trigger or lever such that the magnet rotates with respect to the core/coil assemblies as the trigger or lever is squeezed. When the coils of the engine are programmably energized, the cores are magnetized at different angular rotations of the trigger or lever, creating a torque feedback profile that can be quickly modified to provide more or less torque at different angular displacements during the squeezing of the trigger or lever to emulate different triggers or levers.

Abstract: A first device coupled with a first display and an image sensor receives output data from a second device having a second display different from the first display. The output data represents content displayable by the second device on the second display. The first device determines, using the image sensor, a position of the second display relative to the first device and causes the first display to display content based on the output data received from the second device and the determined position of the second display relative to the first device.

Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to embodiments for video communication interface for managing content that is shared during a video communication session.

The processor may be further configured to provide, using a machine learning model, a relevance score for each of multiple data items based at least in part on the received relevance information and the set of signals. The processor may be further configured to sort the data items based on a ranking of each relevance score for each data item. The processor may be further configured to provide, as output, the multiple data items based at least in part on the ranking.

Abstract: Disclosed techniques relate to trace caches. Trace cache circuitry may identify traces that satisfy one or more criteria. Generally, internal branches of a trace should satisfy a threshold bias level in a particular direction. To achieve this goal, the processor may initially assume that branches meet the threshold, track their usefulness in the trace context over time, and prevent inclusion of branches that fall below a usefulness threshold (which indicates that those branches are not sufficiently biased). Branches that do not meet the threshold may be added to a Bloom filter, for example. Usefulness may be tracked during trace training, when valid in a trace cache, or both.

Abstract: A neural processor includes neural engines for performing convolution operations on input data corresponding to one or more tasks to generate output data. The neural processor circuit also includes a data processor circuit that is coupled to one or more neural engine. The data processor circuit receives the output data from the neural engine and generates a branching command from the output data. The neural processor circuit further includes a task manager that is coupled to the data processor circuit. The task manager receives the branching command from the data processor circuit. The task manager enqueues one of two or more segment branches according to the received branching command. The two or more segment branches are subsequent to a pre-branch task segment that includes the pre-branch task. The task manager transmits a task from the selected one of the segment branches to data processor circuit to perform the task.

Gaze information from a gaze tracking subsystem, either alone or along with depth information from a depth tracking system, may be leveraged to determine depths at which to focus. Gaze information, or a combination of depth and gaze information, may be used. As an alternative, the user can manually control the focus distance. For example, a manual bifocal method may provide two focus distances (near focus and far focus.

In some cases, the base does not extend between the flexure and the enclosure.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for illuminating a biometric aspect, such as periocular region features or iris features, with multiple illumination configurations to create multiple illumination channels for computer analysis are disclosed. Multiple illumination channels may be used for quality assurance by comparing the actual illumination channel property of a given image to the illumination channel that was activated for image capture. Images captured at the multiple illumination channels can also be used in biometric authentication by providing additional information for comparison to a stored template generated from images taken at multiple illumination channels during enrollment. Biometric authentication using a quality assurance process may be resistant to attempts to bypass biometric authentication.

A device may receive the point cloud data via a wired or wireless connection or may generate it from one or more image sensors integrated into the device. Movement of points associated with the upper body, or within a region of interest, may be measured to estimate a breath signal. The estimated breath signal may be further processed to derive values representative of the breath signal. The breath signal may be then provided to a given application or location.
