  • Publication number: 20240104288
    Abstract: A system for manufacturing an integrated circuit includes a processor coupled to a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store executable instructions. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for generating a layout design of the integrated circuit that has a set of design rules. The generating of the layout design includes generating a set of gate layout patterns corresponding to fabricating a set of gate structures of the integrated circuit, generating a cut feature layout pattern corresponding to a cut region of a first gate of the set of gate structures of the integrated circuit, generating a first conductive feature layout pattern corresponding to fabricating a first conductive structure of the integrated circuit, and generating a first via layout pattern corresponding to a first via. The cut feature layout pattern overlaps a first gate layout pattern of the set of gate layout patterns.

  • Publication number: 20240104872
    Abstract: Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including a portal for viewing a stereo item (e.g., a photo or video) positioned a distance behind the portal. One or more visual effects are provided based on texture of one or more portions of the stereo item, e.g., texture at cutoff or visible edges of the stereo item. The effects change the appearance of the stereo item or the portal itself, e.g., improving visual comfort issues by minimizing window violations or otherwise enhancing the viewing experience. Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including an immersive view of a stereo item without using portal. Such a visual effect may be provided to partially obscure the surrounding 3D environment.

  • Publication number: 20210200787
    Abstract: Integrated glucose monitoring systems, comprising a memory configured to store data relating to at least two glucose measurements of a user, a glucose safe range, and exogenous data. Wherein the at least two glucose measurements of the user are at different time points t1 and t2; a user interface comprising a display; and a processor comprising computer-executable instructions. Wherein the computer-executable instructions determine a rate of change based on the at least two glucose measurements of the user; determine, based on the at least two glucose measurements of the user and the determined rate of change, a projected glucose level at a future time t3; and provide an alarm at the user interface if, based on at least one point of exogenous data, the projected glucose level at future time t3 is outside of the glucose safe range.

  • Patent number: 10872102
    Abstract: Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data and insulin delivery data are used to generate more reliable projected alarms related to a projected glucose levels. A memory stores endogenous data related to measurements of glucose level in a patient, and also stores exogenous data, such as insulin on board, both of which are used by a processor to create projected alarms. Profiles of CGM data are created for use in tuning patient-specific insulin data, such at basal rate, carb ratio, and insulin sensitivity. A processor searches for patterns in the data profiles and if found, recommended changes to patient-specific insulin data are provided to permit more accurate control over a patient's glucose levels.

  • Patent number: 10583251
    Abstract: Safety features are applied to an integrated insulin delivery system to enhance safety by controlling medication delivery including the automatic resumption of basal rate after a particular event, such as termination of a bolus, expiration of a time period, delayed resumption after the bolus has terminated, IOB comparison, and others. Other safety features include overriding a delivery control that may result in hypoglycemia, and terminating an extended bolus or temporary basal rate in view of a glucose signal indicating imminent carbohydrate deficiency. In another feature, an automatic resumption of a basal delivery rate is programmed into the delivery device to avoid the possibility of complete loss of delivery of insulin in the event that communication with the delivery device is disrupted.
