  • Patent number: 9739743
    Abstract: A plug side surface of a plug housing is provided with a claw portion. The claw portion includes a plug lock surface facing in a direction away from a connector mounting surface. Each assistant fitting of a receptacle connector includes a receptacle lock surface that faces in a direction approaching the connector mounting surface and is opposed to the plug lock surface in a mated state. The plug lock surface includes a lock maintaining surface and an unlocking surface. Assuming that an angle formed between a reference plane and the lock maintaining surface is a lock maintaining angle and an angle formed between the reference plane and the unlocking surface is an unlocking angle, the lock maintaining angle is smaller than the unlocking angle.

  • Publication number: 20170229135
    Abstract: Systems and methods for adjusting audio levels in a plurality of audio signals are disclosed. One or more input signals containing one or more audio signals are depacketized. The audio signals are analyzed to determine if audio levels of the signals correspond to a desired audio level for at least some of the signals. The audio levels of signals that do not correspond are adjusted. Packets that do not require adjustment and the resulting adjusted packets are combined to form one or more output signals corresponding to the one or more input signals.

  • Publication number: 20170223363
    Abstract: Various embodiments are described herein for methods and systems for operating a video compression system. In one example embodiment, the method of operating a video compression system includes determining an encoding complexity limit for an encoding module within the video compression system, determining signal complexity of an input signal to the video compression system, comparing the encoding complexity limit to the signal complexity at an adaptive scaling module within the video compression system, and if the signal complexity is determined to be greater than the encoding complexity limit, manipulating the resolution of the input signal at the adaptive scaling module to generate an output signal.
