  • Patent number: 10847212
    Abstract: A read and write data processing apparatus and method associated with computational memory cells formed as a memory/processing array provides the ability for selected write data in a bit line section to be logically combined (e.g. logically ANDed) with the read result on a read bit line, as if the write data were the read data output of another computational memory cell being read during the read operation. When accumulation logic is implemented in the bit line sections, the implementation and utilization of additional read logic circuitry provides a mechanism for selected write data in a bit line section to be used as the data with which the read result on the read bit line accumulates, before the newly accumulated result is captured and stored in the bit line section's read register.

  • Publication number: 20200301139
    Abstract: A head-up display system includes a display device, a liquid crystal cell and a driver circuit. The display device is configured to generate multiple images at a frame rate. Each image includes multiple image segments with an initial polarization. The liquid crystal cell includes multiple addressable segments. The addressable segments are aligned with the image segments. The addressable segments are individually controllable to selectively adjust the initial polarization of the image segments between two different polarizations. The driver circuit is in communication with the display device and the liquid crystal cell. The driver circuit is configured to control the addressable segments to pass each image segment that has visible content to a user with the initial polarization switched between the two different polarizations at a frequency greater than the frame rate of the images and attenuate sunlight incident on the display device at each image segment that has blank content.
