  • Patent number: 11522005
    Abstract: Methods of forming trench structures of different depths in a semiconductor substrate are provided. A first mask forming a first opening and a second opening is provided on the semiconductor substrate. The semiconductor substrate is etched through the first and second openings, thereby forming a first trench and a second trench. Trench structure material is deposited in the first and second trenches, thereby forming first and second trench structures. A second mask is provided on the first mask, wherein the second mask covers the first opening and has a third opening superimposed over the second opening of the first mask.

  • Patent number: 11522864
    Abstract: A first request is received for a temporary alternate identifier for a user, wherein the user is identified within a service using a user service identifier, and wherein the temporary alternate identifier assists in transferring the user service identifier from the service to a resource. In response to the first request, the temporary alternate identifier is generated and associated with the user service identifier. The temporary alternate identifier is then provided the user, and the temporary alternate identifier is also provided by the user to the resource. A second request is received, from the resource, for an associated service identifier that is associated with the temporary alternate identifier. An indication is then provided, to the resource, that the user service identifier is the associated service identifier.

  • Patent number: 11520332
    Abstract: An autonomous mobile device (AMD) uses sensors to explore a physical space and determine the locations of obstacles. Simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) techniques are used by the AMD to designate as keyframes some images and their associated descriptors of features in the space. Each keyframe indicates a location and orientation of the AMD relative to those features. Anchors are specified relative to keyframes. A marker is specified relative to one or more anchors. Because markers are associated with features in the physical space, they maintain their association with the physical space through various processes such as SLAM loop closures. Markers may specify locations in the physical space, such as navigation waypoints, navigation destinations such as a goal pose for exploring an unexplored area, as an observation target to facilitate exploration, and so forth. Markers may also be used to specify block listed locations to be avoided during exploration.

  • Patent number: 11521408
    Abstract: Features for analyzing one or more images with image recognition to detect bounds to accurately convert physical text (e.g., pilot logbooks, aviation-related documents, journey logbooks, aircraft mechanics work orders, airframe logbooks, propeller logbooks, and engine logbooks) into digital format. Based on the predefined bounds, character recognition, e.g., OCR/ICR/ICR engine(s), may be used to convert each cell to a digital format. A decision engine determines, based on reinforcement learning data, the correct value of each cell based on a confidence of the character recognition. The decision engine may be a series of logical filtering, sorting, context rules (e.g., REGEX rules for specific columns) and suggestions based on the reinforcement learning model used to normalize the imperfections associated with the character recognition technologies. The final result is a serialized digital format that can be exported to an endpoint (e.g., spreadsheets, database, etc.).
