Abstract: Under an embodiment of the invention, a computer system includes a user interface (UI) for virtual tours of modeled real estate. The UI includes three ways to navigate the modeled real estate. The first navigation element is a 3D UI element that provides a 3D view of the property and enables the user to freely navigate in the XY plane of the virtual model. The second navigation element is a 2D map of the real property overlaid on a portion of the 3D UI element. The 2D map overlay enables navigation in the XY plane of the virtual model. The third navigation element is a 1D text element of the real property overlaid on a portion of the 3D UI element. The 1D text overlay enables navigation along the Z axis or the XY plane of the virtual model.

The optical flow switch includes a network of photonic switches arranged between input and output ports of the optical flow switch. The network of photonic switches spans two or more reticles, and the two or more reticles may include photonic switching arrangements corresponding to repeated reticle masks or sets of reticle masks. The optical flow switch may be mounted to a glass substrate to form an optical flow switch package.

Abstract: A network of matrix processing units (MPUs) is provided on a device, where each MPU is connected to at least one other MPU in the network, and each MPU is to perform matrix multiplication operations. Computer memory stores tensor data and a master control central processing unit (MCC) is provided on the device to receive an instruction from a host device, where the instruction includes one or more tensor operands based on the tensor data. The MCC invokes a set of operations on one or more of the MPUs based on the instruction, where the set of operations includes operations on the tensor operands. A result is generated from the set of operations, the result embodied as a tensor value.
