Abstract: Facilitating collaboration in a multiuser communication session includes detecting initiation of an interaction between a user of a first device and a virtual object in a multiuser communication session, where the first device and a second device are active in the multiuser communication session, and where state information is synchronized among the first device and second device in the multiuser communication session.

A representation of the multiuser communication session at the first device and a representation of the multiuser communication session at the second device are inconsistent in accordance with the suspended synchronization of the state information.

Abstract: Increases in current drawn from power supply nodes in a computer system can result in unwanted drops in the voltages of the power supply nodes until power supply circuits can compensate for the increased load. To lessen the effects of increases in load currents, a decoupling circuit that includes a diode may be coupled to the power supply node. During a charge mode, a control circuit applies a current to the diode to store charge in the diode. During a boost mode, the control circuit can couple the diode to the power supply node. When the voltage level of the power supply node begins to drop, the diode can source a current to the power supply node using the previously stored charge. The diode may be directly coupled to the power supply node or be part of a switch-based system that employs multiple diodes to increase the discharge voltage.

Abstract: A light emitter that operates through a display may cause display artifacts, even when the light emitter operates using non-visible wavelengths. To mitigate artifacts caused by a light emitter operating through a display, the display may have a higher density of thin-film transistor sub-pixels than emissive sub-pixels. This allows for a region in the display to include emissive sub-pixels but be free of thin-film transistor sub-pixels. The light emitter may operate through this region in the display. Additionally, to reduce the amount of space occupied in the inactive area of a display by gate driver circuitry, at least a portion of the gate driver circuitry may be positioned in the active area of the display. To accommodate the gate driver circuitry, emissive sub-pixels may be laterally shifted relative to corresponding thin-film transistor sub-pixels.

The radio front end circuitry coupled with the processor circuitry can be configured to transmit the PUCCH using the determined PRBs and before the dedicated PUCCH resource configuration. The dedicated PUCCH resource configuration can include initial access before Radio Resource Control (RRC) connection setup.
