  • Patent number: 11929383
    Abstract: A pixelated image sensor capable of simultaneously supporting an EVS mode and an image-frame capture mode of operation. An individual pixel of the sensor comprises two distinct sets of subpixels involved in the two modes, respectively, and at least two corresponding, functionally different and independent electrical circuits. The metal interconnect structure of the image-sensor IC is implemented using a wiring topology in which spatial overlap between the wirings of the two electrical circuits is optimized (e.g., minimized) to reduce inter-circuit crosstalk when the two circuits are active at the same time. Such wiring topology may be beneficial, e.g., due to the resulting improvements in the image quality for both operating modes.

  • Patent number: 11927811
    Abstract: In some implementations, an optical component of a microscope may capture an image of a profile of a ferrule and a connector of an optical fiber based on the ferrule being received by a first opening of a first connector adapter of the microscope. A mechanical axis of the ferrule may be orthogonal to an optical path from a camera of the microscope to the ferrule when the ferrule is received by the first opening. One or more processors associated with the microscope may process the image to determine a measurement of a chamfer of the ferrule. The optical component may capture an image of an endface of the ferrule based on the ferrule being received by a second opening of a second connector adapter. The mechanical axis of the ferrule may be axially aligned with the optical path when the ferrule is received by the second opening.

  • Patent number: 11929941
    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to method and a system for managing a decentralized access to a resource. A user of a client device having a third-party application installed therein request to join the mesh network based on invite received from the owner of the IoT gateway. The mesh network comprises one or more IoT gateway. One gateway is identified based on the topology of the client device, and an optimal connection between the client device and the identified gateway is determined. The third-party application may send a resource access request for accessing a resource of the mesh network and access the requested resource through the optimal connection route thus determined. Thus, the disclosure enables a peer-to-peer mesh network infrastructure that allows secure access to the resource by a third-party application without using a cloud server to route the resource access request from the client device to the gateway.

  • Patent number: 11928525
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for ordering events within a distribution computing system are described. In one aspect, a method includes receiving, by an upward node from one or more nodes of a distributed computing system, event fragments for corresponding events that have occurred within the distributed computing system. Each event fragment includes an age parameter that indicates an age of the corresponding event from a perspective of a node that sent the event fragment to the upward node. The upward node calculates, for each event, a corresponding disentangled time based on a received time that represents a time at which the upward node received the event fragment for the event and the age of the event indicated by the age parameter for the event. The upward node arranges the events in an order according to the disentangled time for each event.

  • Patent number: 11930723
    Abstract: An ionic redox transistor comprises a solid channel, a solid reservoir layer, and a solid electrolyte layer disposed between the channel and the reservoir layer. The channel exhibits a substantially linear current-voltage relationship in a first range of voltages, and a nonlinear current-voltage relationship in a second range of voltages that is greater than the first range of voltages. One or both of the substantially linear current-voltage relationship or the nonlinear current-voltage relationship of the channel is varied by changing the concentration of ions such as oxygen vacancies in the channel. Ion or vacancy transport between the channel and the reservoir layer across the electrolyte layer occurs in response to applying a voltage between the channel and the reservoir layer. Subject to the first range of voltages, the channel can function as a synapse device. Subject to the second range of voltages, the channel can function as a neuron device.
