  • Publication number: 20250181643
    Abstract: The system determines whether content such as an image is suitable for content modification based on one or more criteria. The system includes decision engines or modules configured to evaluate one or more suitability metrics based on corresponding criteria such as publication status, restriction status, context, compatibility, and classification. If content is unsuitable for content modification because of entities or context depicted therein, privacy status, incompatibility with content modification, properties of the content file itself, or other aspects, the system generates a tag indicating the content is unsuitable for content modification. If content is suitable for content modification because of entities or context depicted therein, publication status, compatibility with content modification, properties of the content file itself, or other aspects, the system generates a content modification tag indicating the content is suitable for content modification.

  • Patent number: 12111183
    Abstract: A rotary angle measuring arrangement includes a shaft, and a rotary angle measuring system which detects a rotary shaft movement. The rotary angle measuring system includes an excitation unit connected to the shaft which generates a magnetic field, a magnetic field sensor, a PCB arrangement, and an evaluation electronics arranged on the PCB arrangement and electrically connected to the magnetic field sensor. The PCB arrangement includes a first PCB section arranged perpendicular to a longitudinal axis of the shaft, and a second PCB section angled with respect to the first PCB section and electrically connected thereto. The magnetic field sensor is arranged on the first PCB section. The magnetic field is detectable via the magnetic field sensor. A parallel projection of the second PCB section onto a longitudinal plane parallel to the longitudinal axis and a parallel projection of the excitation unit onto the longitudinal plane at least partially overlap.

  • Publication number: 20240320712
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for inserting contextual advertisements into a virtual environment. While presenting a virtual environment, a media device receives speech input. The media device selects an advertisement from an advertisement database based on the speech. The media device then determines the current environment of the virtual environment and generates a virtual object that is related to the current environment. The media device overlays the selected advertisement over the generated virtual object and displays the generated virtual object in the virtual environment.

  • Patent number: 11964547
    Abstract: This disclosure relates to a motor vehicle with an arrangement configured to oppose movement of a vehicle door, and a corresponding method. An example motor vehicle includes a body, a door configured to slide relative to the body between an open position and a closed position, and a bracket connected to the door. The bracket includes a slot. Further, a locking arm is mounted to the body, and, when the door is in the closed position, the locking arm is configured to move such that the locking arm is received in the slot.

  • Publication number: 20230414573
    Abstract: An ophthalmic composition for the prevention, control and treatment of presbyopia symptoms comprising a synergistic combination of pilocarpine, brimonidine, oxymetazoline, hyaluronic acid, bromfenac and optionally a vasoconstrictor in a single low concentration dose to improve near vision ability and increase depth of focus is described. In addition, the side effects of pilocarpine administered separately, such as eye redness, headache, and dryness of the eye, are reduced and are better tolerated in patients suffering from presbyopia.

  • Publication number: 20230356578
    Abstract: The present invention is a detachable device for protecting exterior mirrors of vehicles. As a non-limiting embodiment, the detachable device includes a housing and an impact-resistant, impact-absorbing and/or impact-deflecting material. The detachable device may also include a housing securing element, a proximity sensor, and/or a signaling light or indicator. As a non-limiting example, the housing preferably includes a front wall, at least one side wall, a top wall, an exterior surface, an interior surface, and a chamber for retaining the impact-resistant, impact-absorbing and/or impact-deflecting material. The housing may also include a bottom wall. Preferably, the housing is dimensioned and configured for being as large as or larger than the corresponding exterior mirror of a vehicle so as to be able to provide sufficient protection for the corresponding exterior mirror when the housing surrounds the mirror or is positioned a certain distance in front (or a corresponding direction) of the mirror.

  • Publication number: 20230273373
    Abstract: An interface device for performing off-chip coupling in optical waveguides includes an optical waveguide core for propagating light of a particular wavelength or a plurality of wavelengths and an array of radiative elements configured to change the propagation direction of the light. The optical waveguide core is configured to control the effective refractive index of the propagation mode of the light. The device can thus serve as an optical antenna for coupling between a waveguide mode and a free-space propagating beam or a plurality of free-space propagating beams in an arrayed configuration.
