Abstract: The present disclosure relates to managing augmented reality content created on a first electronic device and viewed at a second electronic device. In some embodiments, the first electronic device determines its physical location, receives input representing user-generated augmented reality content, displays an augmented reality environment including the user-generated augmented reality content overlaid on a live view of the physical location, and sends the user-generated augmented reality content to an external storage repository. The second electronic device can then receive the user-generated augmented reality content, determine whether it is at the physical location, and display the user-generated augmented reality content when it is at the physical location.

Abstract: Head-mounted display systems and methods of operation that allow users to couple and decouple a portable electronic device such as a handheld portable electronic device with a separate head-mounted device (e.g., temporarily integrates the separate devices into a single unit) are disclosed. The portable electronic may be physically coupled to the head-mounted device such that the portable electronic device can be worn on the user's head. The portable electronic device may be operatively coupled to the head-mounted device such that the portable electronic device and head mounted device can communicate and operate with one another. Each device may be allowed to extend its features and/or services to the other device for the purpose of enhancing, increasing and/or eliminating redundant functions between the head-mounted device and the portable electronic device.

Abstract: Battery systems according to embodiments of the present technology may include a battery. The battery may include a first electrode terminal and a second electrode terminal accessible along a first surface of the battery. The systems may include a module electrically coupled with the battery. The module may include a circuit board characterized by a first surface and a second surface opposite the first surface. The module may include a mold extending from the first surface of the circuit board toward the battery. The module may include a first conductive tab electrically coupling the module with the first electrode terminal.

The second conductive tab may extend across the mold substantially parallel to the first surface of the circuit board.

Abstract: In some implementations, a user device (e.g., a computing device) can perform client-side personalization of search results. For example, a computing device can obtain search results matching user specified search parameters from a server device and/or from various services on the user device. The user device can score the search results based on various search result item attributes. After scoring, the user device can promote or demote search results items based on whether the search results item is relevant to recent user behavior. The promotion and/or demotion of search results items can cause search results items scores to be adjusted to generate a personalized score for each search result. The search results can then be ordered and/or presented based on the personalized score for each search results item. When presenting search results items, the user device can present information indicative of the source of the search results items.

Abstract: The systems described herein include a system and method for redeeming multiple redeemable codes. For example, a mobile device can be configured to enable redemption of multiple redeemable codes in a single transaction. In some implementations, the mobile device can store the plurality of redeemable codes for obtaining discounts on the items obtained from the merchant store. Particular implementations provide at least the following advantages: A mobile device can store and manage multiple redeemable codes for a user. The mobile device can automatically select and provide the redeemable codes to a point of sale terminal when the user is making a purchase. The codes can be automatically selected and applied to the purchased goods or services to generate a discount for the user. Redeemable codes can be automatically removed from the user's device after they have been used. Thus, the user is relieved of the burden of managing redeemable codes.

Abstract: A display may have an array of organic light-emitting diode display pixels. Each display pixel may include a drive transistor coupled in series with one or more emission transistors and a respective organic light-emitting diode (OLED). A semiconducting-oxide transistor may be coupled between a drain terminal and a gate terminal of the drive transistor to help reduce leakage during low-refresh-rate display operations. To compensate for variations in the threshold voltage of the semiconducting-oxide transistor, the magnitude of a high voltage level of a scan control signal provided to the gate terminal of the semiconducting-oxide transistor may be adjusted. Sensing circuitry may be used to sense a display current while displaying a calibration image. The sensed display current may be compared to an expected display current associated with the calibration image. Processing circuitry may update the high voltage level based on the actual display current compared to the expected display current.

According to various embodiments, the additive coil structure may be formed using an additive process.

Abstract: Fabric may be woven using a needle weaving machine. The needle weaving machine may have three weft fiber needles and two hooks for holding weft fibers from the weft fiber needles. One of the weft fiber needles may provide weft fibers to multiple hooks when weaving fabric with warp fibers held in a V-shaped profile. An electronic device may have a rectangular footprint with four curved corners. A length of fabric may be woven to form a case having four curved corners that match the four curved corners of the electronic device. The case may have a C-shaped profile with parallel upper and lower fabric portions coupled by a sidewall. Short rows of weft fiber may be used around the corners of the case to ensure that the upper and lower portions of the fabric lie flush with planar front and rear surfaces of the electronic device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for representing a virtual object in a real environment, having the following steps: generating a two-dimensional image of a real environment by means of a recording device, ascertaining a position of the recording device relative to at least one component of the real environment, segmenting at least one area of the real environment unmarked in reality in the two-dimensional image for identifying at least one segment of the real environment in distinction to a remaining part of the real environment while supplying corresponding segmentation data, and merging the virtual object with the two-dimensional image of the real environment with consideration of the segmentation data such that at least one part of the segment of the real environment is removed from the image of the real environment. The invention permits any collisions of virtual objects with real objects that occur upon merging with a real environment to be represented in a way largely close to reality.

Abstract: A method includes obtaining training samples that include images that depict objects and annotations of annotated key point locations for the objects. The method also includes training a machine learning model to determine estimated key point locations for the objects and key point uncertainty values for the estimated key point locations by minimizing a loss function that is based in part on a key point localization loss value that represents a difference between the annotated key point locations and the estimated key point locations values and is weighted by the key point uncertainty values.

Abstract: The present disclosure addresses a concept for capacitor scaling. A first capacitor is provided with a first signal capacitance between a first electrode and a second electrode of the first capacitor and with a first parasitic capacitance between the first capacitor's first electrode and AC ground. A sum of the first signal capacitance and the first parasitic capacitance yields a first total capacitance. A second capacitor is provided with a second signal capacitance between a first electrode and a second electrode of the second capacitor and with a second parasitic capacitance between the second capacitor's first electrode and AC ground. A sum of the second signal capacitance and the second parasitic capacitance yields a second total capacitance. While the first signal capacitance differs from the second signal capacitance, the first total capacitance equals the second total capacitance.
