Publication number: 20240096183Abstract: A system providing various improved processing techniques for haptic feedback is described. An acoustic field is defined by one or more control points in a space within which the acoustic field may exist. Each control point is assigned an amplitude value equating to a desired amplitude of the acoustic field at the control point. Transducers are then controlled to create an acoustic field exhibiting the desired amplitude at each of the control points. When human skin interacts with the acoustic field, vibrations of the skin are interpreted by mechanoreceptors being excited and sending signals to the brain via the nervous system. Improved processing techniques allow for more efficient real-world operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 16, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Thomas Andrew Carter, Benjamin John Oliver Long, Sriram Subramanian

Publication number: 20230419036Abstract: Random token segmentation may be implemented for next token prediction. Text data may be received for training a machine learning model to predict a next token given input text tokens. Multiple tokens may be determined from the text data. Different ones of the multiple token may be randomly segmented in to sub-tokens. The machine learning model may then be trained using the multiple tokens including the respective sub-tokens as a training data set.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 22, 2022Publication date: December 28, 2023Applicant: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Zijian Wang, Yuchen Tian, Mingyue Shang, Praphruetpong Athiwaratkun, Ming Tan, Parminder Bhatia, Andrew Oliver Arnold, Ramesh M Nallapati, Sudipta Sengupta, Bing Xiang, Atul Deo, Ankur Deepak Desai

Patent number: 10940625Abstract: A method and apparatus for extrusion of an article is provided. A die assembly can apply flows of thermoplastic material to an array of reinforcing cables to form a composite extrusion. A slider fabric can be bonded to one side of the composite extrusion. After exiting the die assembly, the slider fabric can act to support the extrudate as it passes along an elongate mandrel, which can cause the base of the slider fabric to change shape from a flat profile to the final internal profile of the article. The extruded article can then be cooled to solidify the material. The die can include cooling for the slider fabric and means for promoting penetration of the thermoplastic into reinforcing cables.Type: GrantFiled: April 27, 2018Date of Patent: March 9, 2021Assignee: EHC CANADA, INC.Inventors: Andrew Oliver Kenny, Douglas James Weatherall, Viqar Haider, Ronald Harold Ball, Alexander Stuart Caunce, Reginald Anthony Butwell
