  • Patent number: 11977333
    Abstract: A single layer process is utilized to reduce swing effect interference and reflection during imaging of a photoresist. An anti-reflective additive is added to a photoresist, wherein the anti-reflective additive has a dye portion and a reactive portion. Upon dispensing the reactive portion will react with underlying structures to form an anti-reflective coating between the underlying structure and a remainder of the photoresist. During imaging, the anti-reflective coating will either absorb the energy, preventing it from being reflected, or else modify the optical path of reflection, thereby helping to reduce interference caused by the reflected energy.

  • Publication number: 20240127683
    Abstract: In an example method, a mobile device obtains a signal indicating an acceleration measured by a sensor over a time period. The mobile device determines an impact experienced by the user based on the signal. The mobile device also determines, based on the signal, one or more first motion characteristics of the user during a time prior to the impact, and one or more second motion characteristics of the user during a time after the impact. The mobile device determines that the user has fallen based on the impact, the one or more first motion characteristics of the user, and the one or more second motion characteristics of the user, and in response, generates a notification indicating that the user has fallen.

  • Patent number: 11847467
    Abstract: A boot method for an embedded system is provided. The embedded system includes two mainboards each provided with a baseboard management controller (BMC), a non-volatile memory unit and a network adapter. When the embedded system is turned on, each of the BMCs performs a boot procedure, and then loads an operating system (OS) image file from a corresponding non-volatile memory unit to execute an operating system. When one BMC fails to load the OS image file or to execute the operating system, the BMC causes the corresponding network adapter to communicate with the other network adapter to acquire the OS image file from the non-volatile memory unit on the other mainboard, so as to replace the OS image file in the corresponding non-volatile memory unit, and directly loads the OS image thus acquired to execute the operating system.
