  • Patent number: 12124391
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to devices for using a configurable stacked architecture for a fixed function datapath with an accelerator for accelerating an operation or a layer of a deep neural network (DNN). The stacked architecture may have a fixed function datapath that includes one or more configurable micro-execution units that execute a series of vector, scalar, reduction, broadcasting, and normalization operations for a DNN layer operation. The fixed function datapath may be customizable based on the DNN or the operation.

  • Patent number: 12126378
    Abstract: An extended reality headset has light-based communication transceivers coupled to the extended reality headset. The relative position of a remote transceiver with respect to the current position and orientation of the extended reality headset is determined. A line-of-sight is calculated from the light-based communication transceivers to the remote transceiver. The light-based communication transceivers emit a light-based communications beam in accordance with the calculated line-of-sight. The light-based communications beam is adjusted in response to changes to the relative position of the remote transceiver with respect to the current position and orientation of the extended reality headset.

  • Patent number: 12124611
    Abstract: At least one aspect is directed to determining an estimate of an intersection of user identifiers in a first set of user identifiers and a second set of user identifiers. The first and second sets of user identifiers can be populated with user identifiers that have interacted with the same content item or content item campaign. Estimates of intersections of the first and the second sets can be determined based on a binomial vector approach, a vector of counts approach, or a hybrid approach. The binomial vector approach generates vectors based on k hashes of each user identifier in the first set and summing the vectors to generate a first vector. The intersection can be determined based on a dot product of the first vector and a second vector similarly generated from the second set of user identifiers.

  • Patent number: 12122133
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to novel, improved, modified or treated microporous membranes for use in textile related applications and which are preferably composed of two or more dissimilar porous membrane or material layers laminated together using heat, compression and/or adhesives. The preferred inventive laminated composite microporous membrane is modified using a technique or treatment such as microcreping to introduce permanent small, regularly spaced, crepes, profiles, compactions, pleats, or wrinkles into the laminated composite microporous membrane for the purpose of improving mechanical strength, elasticity and/or resiliency. In addition, the inventive microcreped microporous laminated membrane more preferably has significantly improved ‘hand’ or softness, has ‘next-to-the-skin’ softness, and/or is quiet without crinkling noises during movement, which may be desired performance properties or characteristics of or in textile garments, materials or applications.

  • Patent number: 12124863
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for filtering content at the operating system level. In one aspect, a method includes accessing, at a user device, data that includes content items that are to be presented by an application executing on the user device; prior to the content being presented by the application: for each content item, determining, at the user device and by a filtering model, whether the content item is to be presented by the application or filtered, for each content item that is determined to be presented by the application, allowing the application to present the content item, and for each content item that is determined to be filtered, precluding, by the filtering model by a system level filtering operation performed at an operating system level and separate from an application level at which the application is executing, presentation of the content item by the application.

  • Patent number: 12123248
    Abstract: A barrier operator feature enhancement device is designed to provide one or more features found in modern barrier operator devices and to incorporate those features into a previously installed barrier operator system. To facilitate ease of use, the barrier operator feature enhancement device can communicate with a large variety of barrier operators. Such communication may be wireless or wired, depending on the communication protocol implemented by a particular previously installed barrier operator. To facilitate the ease of installation, the device is designed to configure itself to operate with the communication protocol of the previously installed barrier operator. Once configured to be able to communicate with the previously installed barrier operator, the feature enhancement device works with the barrier operator to provide one or more additional features to enhance the capabilities of the previously installed barrier operator.

  • Patent number: 12125086
    Abstract: A processor-based system stores a plurality of card templates and a plurality of envelope templates in a database. The system receives a user selection of a selected card template from among the plurality of card templates. The system receives a user selection of a selected envelope template from among the plurality of envelope templates, wherein the selected envelope template includes an address block and non-text ornamentation. The system further receives a user-provided recipient name and a corresponding user-provided recipient address for inclusion in the address block of the selected envelope template. The system determines a potential overlap between the non-text ornamentation and the address block including the user-provided recipient name and the corresponding user-provided recipient address. In response to determining the potential overlap, the system causes an error message alerting of the potential overlap to be displayed on a graphical user interface (GUI) of a user computing device.
