  • Publication number: 20240094360
    Abstract: The subject matter of this specification can be implemented in, among other things, systems and methods of optical sensing for pixel multiplexing and polarized beam steering. Described, among other things, is a system that includes a light source configured to generate a light and one or more optical devices, integrated on a photonic integrated circuit, configured to impart modulation to the generated light and deliver the modulated light to an interface coupling device. The interface coupling device can include a plurality of interface couplers (ICs), each IC configured to scatter the modulated light in a direction that makes at least 5 degrees with an optical axis of lens configured to transmit the light scattered by each IC along a respective direction of a plurality of directions.

  • Publication number: 20240004081
    Abstract: The disclosed aspects and implementations enable efficient disambiguation of spurious internal reflections in sensing (lidar, radar, or sonar) devices from reflections off closely positioned objects by imparting a longitudinal motion to the sensing devices, or components of such devices. In one implementation, the disclosed techniques involve outputting a transmitted wave and receiving a reflected wave generated by the transmitted wave while imparting, to a transceiver, a velocity along a direction of the transmitted wave. The techniques further involve detecting a difference of a transmitted wave frequency and a reflected wave frequency and determining whether the reflected beam is reflected from a real object located in an outside environment or is caused by an internal reflection within the sensing device.

  • Publication number: 20220151010
    Abstract: Configurations are described for maintaining a continuity and quality of wireless signal connection between a mobile device and systems. accessible through the internet. In particular, configurations are disclosed to address the challenge of a mobile device that moves through a physical environment wherein the best wireless connectivity performance is achieved by switching between available connection sources and constantly evaluating a primary connection with other available connections that may be switched in to become a new primary connection. The mobile device may be self-propelled or carried by some other mobilizing means.
