  • Publication number: 20230306930
    Abstract: A system for updating an image on a display device is disclosed. The display device includes pixels in a pixel array. The system includes a display subsystem for executing commands and displaying images, the display subsystem also includes a parser for receiving image frame data, and extracting updated image data and commands. A storage device is used for storing the updated image data in an updated cache location according to the commands. A loader is used for reading the commands to identify and fetch the updated image data from the storage device. Display backplane circuitry is used for receiving the updated image data from the loader and for updating pixel driver circuitry for pixels within the updated image data. The examples described are ideal for driving micro-displays such as LCoS micro-LED displays.

  • Publication number: 20220125449
    Abstract: An endoscopic device for retrieving an object from within a human body is disclosed. The device includes a support assembly, a transmitting assembly, a wire, and a net element. The support assembly has a base and a tubular member. The transmitting assembly includes a handle and a motion transmitting link fixed to the handle and extending through at least a portion of the tubular member. The wire defines a loop portion and two leg portions. A proximal end of each leg portion is secured to the link by a first connection and the two leg portions are secured to each other by at least a second connection distal from the first connection. The net element has a distally protruding portion secured to the loop portion and a proximally protruding portion secured relative to the leg portions.

  • Patent number: 8449066
    Abstract: A method responds to an over-temperature condition in a printhead. The method includes generating a first electrical signal corresponding to a temperature in a printhead, monitoring the first electrical signal with a first electronic circuit to terminate delivery of electrical power to a printhead in response to detection of a safety event, and monitoring the first electrical signal with a second electronic circuit to regulate an amount of electrical power delivered to the printhead.
