  • Patent number: 12286978
    Abstract: A nozzle for a fan assembly is described. The nozzle includes a first duct through which a first airflow moves, the first duct having a first outlet for emitting the first airflow. The nozzle further includes a second duct through which a second airflow moves, the second duct having a second outlet for emitting the second airflow. The first and second outlets are arranged such that the first and second airflows collide to generate a combined airflow having a direction defined by the relative flow rates of the first and second airflows. The first duct then includes a portion moveable to vary the flow rate of the first airflow.

  • Patent number: 12288417
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for extracting high resolution oculometric parameters. A video stream having a video of a face of a user is processed to obtain a set of oculometric parameters, such as eyelid data, iris data (e.g., iris translation, iris radius and iris rotation), and pupil data (e.g., pupil center and pupil radius) at a first resolution. A deconvolution process is performed on the video stream to improve accuracy or resolution of the oculometric parameters, based on stimulus information of a video stimulus displayed on a client device associated with the user, environment data of an environment in which the user is located, device data of the client device, etc. The oculometric parameters are then processed using a prediction model that is trained based on high resolution oculometric parameters obtained using eye tracking devices to predict oculometric parameters at a resolution greater than the first resolution.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for generating a response to a textual query relating to one or more molecules. In one aspect, a method comprises: receiving, from a user, data defining: (i) a chemical structure of each of one or more input molecules, and (ii) a textual query related to the one or more input molecules; generating a sequence of input tokens that jointly represents: (i) the chemical structure of each input molecule, and (ii) the textual query; and processing the sequence of input tokens that jointly represents: (i) the chemical structure of each input molecule, and (ii) the textual query, using a generative neural network to generate a sequence of output tokens defining data responsive to the textual query.

  • Patent number: 12289293
    Abstract: This document describes among other things, network security systems that incorporate a feedback loop so as to automatically and dynamically adjust the scope of network traffic that is subject to inspection. Risky traffic can be sent for inspection; risky traffic that is demonstrated to have high rate of threats can be outright blocked without further inspection; traffic that is causing errors due to protocol incompatibility or should not be inspected for regulatory or other reasons can be flagged so it bypasses the security inspection system. The system can operate on a domain by domain basis, IP address basis, or otherwise.

  • Patent number: 12289839
    Abstract: Processes for localized lasering of a lamination stack and graphene-coated printed circuit board (PCB) are disclosed. An example PCB may include a lamination stack, post-lamination, that may further include a core, an adhesive layer, and at least one graphene-metal structure. A top layer of graphene of the graphene-metal structure may have never been grown before the lamination process or may have been removed post-lamination such that a portion of the top layer of graphene is missing. The localized lasering process described herein may grow (for the first time) or re-grow the graphene layer of the exposed portion of the metal layer without adverse effects to the rest of the lamination stack or PCB and while promoting a uniform layer of graphene on the top surface. A process of growing graphene through application of molecular layer and a self-assembled monolayer (SAM), are also described herein.

  • Patent number: 12289638
    Abstract: A wireless station (STA) in a wireless local area network (WLAN) performs a method to avoid media access control (MAC) padding of a physical layer convergence protocol data unit (PPDU) (e.g., a trigger-based (TB) PPDU, etc.). The method can reduce current or power consumption by the STA, which can in turn optimize the STA and, in certain instances, the WLAN as whole. In one example, the method includes the STA receiving a trigger frame from an access point (AP). The trigger frame specifies a length of a PPDU. The method further includes the STA generating a TB PPDU based on the specifications in the trigger frame. In particular, the STA generates a PPDU that has a length that is less than the length specified by the trigger frame. The method also includes the STA transmitting the generated PPDU to the AP.
