  • Publication number: 20210103875
    Abstract: Described herein are embodiments of a system that permits various entities (e.g., hiring, staffing, and client computer systems and/or devices) involved in the placement of a candidate to a job to interact systematically to carry out functions that conventional systems are unable to perform. These functions may, for example, include synchronizing systems of different entities involved in placing a worker, effectively tracking a temporary workers during a placement and/or hiring process, and post placement activities. To this end, systems and method are provided that permit a handshake process between disparate systems to complete a candidate placement process, timesheet approval and processing, consolidated invoicing, customized analytics and reporting, supplier onboarding of temporary workers, and post-hiring tracking, among other novel tools, interfaces and functionality.

  • Publication number: 20210104221
    Abstract: A method includes receiving text input data for conversion into synthesized speech and determining, using a hotword-aware model trained to detect a presence of a hotword assigned to a user device, whether a pronunciation of the text input data includes the hotword. The hotword is configured to initiate a wake-up process on the user device for processing the hotword and/or one or more other terms following the hotword in the audio input data. When the pronunciation of the text input data includes the hotword, the method also includes generating an audio output signal from the text input data and providing the audio output signal to an audio output device to output the audio output signal. The audio output signal when captured by an audio capture device of the user device, configured to prevent initiation of the wake-up process on the user device.

  • Publication number: 20210102798
    Abstract: An angle sensor can have a plurality of magnetic field sensing elements configured to detect a magnetic field and generate a respective plurality of magnetic field signals. In response to these magnetic field signals, a processor generates an uncorrected angle signal that is indicative of an angle of the magnetic field. An error corrector generates an error value using one or more of the previous samples of the uncorrected angle signal, and a summation element applies the error value to a current sample of the uncorrected angle signal to generate a corrected angle signal. The error corrector can generate the error value by applying a correction factor to a previous sample of the uncorrected angle signal, or by applying a correction factor to a predicted current sample of the uncorrected angle signal.

  • Publication number: 20210100807
    Abstract: The present invention generally relates to the transdermal delivery of various compounds. In some aspects, transdermal delivery may be facilitated by the use of a hostile biophysical environment. One set of embodiments provides a composition for topical delivery comprising a phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitor and/or a salt thereof, and optionally, a hostile biophysical environment and/or a nitric oxide donor. In some cases, the composition may be stabilized using a combination of a stabilization polymer (such as xanthan gum, KELTROL® BT and/or KELTROL® RD), propylene glycol, and a polysorbate surfactant such as Polysorbate 20, which combination unexpectedly provides temperature stability to the composition, e.g., at elevated temperatures such as at least 40° C. (at least about 104° F.), as compared to compositions lacking one or more of these.

  • Publication number: 20210101432
    Abstract: An electronically controller external damper reservoir assembly (eRESI) can be connected to a passive damper and/or substituted for an existing external reservoir to provide semi-active damping control. The eRESI includes a reservoir and a variable base valve assembly actuated by an actuator. A controller is in communication with the actuator and a sensor providing input signal indicative of vehicle movement and is programmed to generate a damping control signal to the actuator based on the input signal, to dynamically control the damping force outputted by a passive damper hydraulically connected to the eRESI. A P/T sensor can be installed to a gas chamber of a vehicle damper to generate a P/T signal indicative of the pressure and temperature of the gas. The controller is programmed to determine a damper position of the damper based on the P/T signal.

  • Publication number: 20210103348
    Abstract: This document describes techniques that enable facilitating user-proficiency in using radar gestures to interact with an electronic device. Using the described techniques, an electronic device can employ a radar system to detect and determine radar-based touch-independent gestures (radar gestures) that are made by the user to interact with the electronic device and applications running on the electronic device. For the radar gestures to be used to control or interact with the electronic device, the user must properly perform the radar gestures. The described techniques therefore also provide a tutorial or game environment that allows the user to learn and practice radar gestures in a natural way. The tutorial or game environments also provide visual feedback elements that give the user feedback when radar gestures are properly made and when the radar gestures are not properly made, which makes the learning and practicing a pleasant and enjoyable experience for the user.
