Patent number: 12169503Abstract: The subject matter herein provides a method, apparatus and computer program product that combines, in one intuitive interface, visualization user interfaces (UIs) as used for descriptive analytics, with workflow UIs as used for predictive analytics. These interfaces provide a visual workspace front-end. The workspace is coupled to a back-end that comprises a data processing engine that combines progressive computation, approximate query processing, and sampling, together with a focus on supporting user-defined operations, to drive the front-end efficiently and in real-time. The processing engine achieves rapid responsiveness through progressive sampling, quickly returning an initial answer, typically on a random sample of data, before continuing to refine that answer in the background. In this manner, any operation carried out in the platform immediately provides a visual response, regardless of the underlying complexity of the operation or data size.Type: GrantFiled: May 15, 2023Date of Patent: December 17, 2024Assignee: Einblick Analytics, Inc.Inventors: Zeyuan Shang, Emanuel Zgraggen, Tim Kraska, Benedetto Buratti, Philipp Eichman, Navid Karimeddiny, Charles Meyer, Wesley Runnels

Patent number: 12167547Abstract: Examples are disclosed that relate to display devices and mounting brackets for securing a bezel to a display device. In one example, a display device comprises a display unit and a bezel comprising at least one pocket. The display device comprises a mounting bracket comprising a display unit attachment portion affixed to the display unit and at least one tongue that extends at least partially into the at least one pocket. Adhesive binds the at least one tongue to at least one surface of the at least one pocket, thereby coupling the bezel to the display unit via the mounting bracket.Type: GrantFiled: April 26, 2022Date of Patent: December 10, 2024Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Joseph Juseop Park, John Charles Meyer, Bruce James Sandmeyer, Brian Walter Aznoe, Dallas Jamison Cutler, James David Wahl

Patent number: 11181354Abstract: A countersink go/no-go gauge is configured to aid a determination of whether a countersink aperture for a rivet is formed to a desired depth. The countersink go/no-go gauge includes a head having a depth defined between a top surface and a bottom surface and a shaft extending from the top surface of the head. The depth of the head is substantially equal to a desired depth of a countersink aperture. In some embodiments the go/no-go gauge includes tolerance features to provide a range for an acceptable countersink depth.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2021Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: United States of America as represented by the Secretary of the Air ForceInventor: Charles Meyer

Publication number: 20190212361Abstract: A sample vessel retention mechanism for an inverted microscope having an optical objective and a scanning probe microscope (SPM) head. The inverted microscope includes a platform for supporting a sample vessel, in which is formed an aperture sized to provide a passage for the objective of the inverted microscope to approach the sample vessel from below. The retention mechanism provides a vacuum region formed in the platform, with the vacuum region being barometrically coupled with a vacuum generator. Establishment of a vacuum in the vacuum region prevents or substantially reduces oscillation of the sample vessel floor in an operating frequency range of the SPM head.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 7, 2019Publication date: July 11, 2019Inventors: Charles Meyer, Shuiqing Hu, James Shaw, Chanmin Su
