  • Publication number: 20240250430
    Abstract: An antenna assembly includes a first dielectric material, a ground plane above the first dielectric material, and two or more patch antennas above the ground plane. In an example, the ground plane has a first aperture slot, and a second aperture slot that is non-intersecting with the first aperture slot. The antenna assembly further includes a second dielectric material separating the two or more patch antennas from the ground plane. In an example, the first dielectric material comprises a printed circuit board (PCB). In some examples, the ground plane and the two or more patch antennas are manufactured using additive manufacturing techniques (such as three-dimensional printing techniques), and in some such examples, the second dielectric material includes dielectric foam. For example, the dielectric foam supports the two or more patch antennas above the ground plane.

  • Publication number: 20240250431
    Abstract: An antenna assembly includes a ground plane having a first aperture slot and a second aperture slot. The first and second aperture slots are non-intersecting and substantially symmetrical with each other about an imaginary plane of symmetry that divides the ground plane into two substantially symmetrical halves, and that is orthogonal to the ground plane. The antenna assembly includes a first patch antenna above the ground plane, and a second patch antenna above the first patch antenna. The first patch antenna is separated from the ground plane, and the second patch antenna is separated from the first patch antenna. The imaginary plane also divides the first patch antenna into two substantially symmetrical halves, and divides the second patch antenna into two substantially symmetrical halves. A first feed line and a second feed line are at least in part below the first aperture slot and the second aperture slot, respectively.

  • Publication number: 20240246768
    Abstract: A conveyor drive roller for a conveyor system. The conveyor drive roller has a hollow drum rotatably connected to a first stationary shaft and a second stationary shaft, and defines a sealed chamber. The chamber at least partially encloses means to rotate the hollow drum about the first and second stationary shafts. A pressure relief valve is positioned on the conveyor drive roller in fluid communication with the inside of the chamber. The pressure relief valve is configured to reduce a gas pressure increase inside of the chamber caused by a rise in a temperature of the conveyor drive roller during operation.

  • Patent number: 12039602
    Abstract: A system and method are provided that, among other things, can reduce the burden on receiving computers, increase data throughput, reduce system failure, and provide components of a scalable and flexible network architecture. Specifically, the system and method provide a multichannel-multicast network environment for use in dynamically assigning data to channels. This configuration is particularly useful in a trading network environment, as it effectively performs channel reassignments in a way not to disturb the receipt of the underlying data. While the example embodiments described herein pertain to electronic trading, the principles of the present invention may be equally applied in other environments where the advantages presented herein are beneficial.

  • Publication number: 20240219749
    Abstract: Anti deep fake headgear distorts the path of light rays passing from a wearer's face. The distortion effect is random due to the headgear having optical distortion devices which dangle freely in front of the wearer's face and may both swing in two dimensions and rotate in a third dimension or may themselves bend. A circlet or bridge with temples and temple tips is worn about the crown of the head or around the face from ear to ear, with an extension from the front carrying one or more suspension members in turn carrying one or more optical distortion devices. The suspension members may be limber members and the optical distortion devices may be lenses, Fresnel lenses, strips of transparent or translucent and flexible materials, Fresnel lenses, material simply having a refractive index different than air, etc.

  • Publication number: 20240168296
    Abstract: An electronic device may include a first bias lens that transmits world light to an output coupler on a waveguide. The output coupler may transmit the world light while coupling image light out of the waveguide. A second bias lens may transmit the world light and the image light to an eye box. A tint layer may transmit the world light towards the output coupler. The tint layer may be planar and layered onto a planar surface of the first bias lens or another lens, may be separated from the first bias lens by an air gap, may be non-parallel relative to the waveguide, and/or may be curved and separated from the first bias lens and the waveguide by air gaps. When planar, the tint layer may be provided with spacers between substrates or between the tint layer and the waveguide to maximize parallelism.

  • Patent number: 11983181
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing previews of deployment of data stream processing instructions sets, sometimes called pipelines, to a stream data processing system. Rather than deploying such an instruction set, which may cause detrimental side effects, previews can be facilitated by conversion of a data stream processing instructions set to a batch query that is applied to an existing data set. An output of the batch query can then be provided to an end user as a preview of output of the data stream processing instructions set, when implemented.
