  • Patent number: 11914541
    Abstract: In example implementations, a computing device is provided. The computing device includes an expansion interface, a first device, a second device, and a processor communicatively coupled to the expansion interface. The expansion interface includes a plurality of slots. Two slots of the plurality of slots are controlled by a single reset signal. The first device is connected to a first slot of the two slots and has a feature that is compatible with the single reset signal. The second device is connected to a second slot of the two slots and does not have the feature compatible with the single reset signal. The process is to detect the first device connected to the first slot and the second device connected to the second slot and disable the feature by preventing the first slot and the second slot from receiving the single reset signal.

  • Patent number: 8567080
    Abstract: The invention provides a method of measuring and identifying foot arch type according to footprint data. The method includes: obtaining a static standing footprint having a foot contour including lateral and medial contours; obtaining a lateral ball and lateral heel tangent points of the footprint, and a medial ball and a medial heel tangent point of the footprint; obtaining a ball and a heel mid-point; obtaining a foot center axial line and a foot perpendicular bisector; obtaining the length of a foot width Lf as the length of the foot perpendicular bisector, and the width a foot arch La; and calculating a foot type index FTI by dividing the width of the foot arch La by the length of the foot width Lf (FTI=La/Lf), and identifying a foot arch type of the footprint by the foot type index FTI.
