Abstract: Touchscreen devices, designed with an assumed range of user abilities and interaction patterns, often present challenges for individuals with diverse abilities to operate independently. Prior efforts to improve accessibility through tools or algorithms necessitated alterations to touchscreen hardware or software, making them inapplicable for the large number of existing legacy devices. This disclosure introduces a hardware interaction proxy that performs physical interactions on behalf of users while allowing them to continue utilizing accessible interfaces, such as screen readers and assistive touch on smartphones, for interface exploration and command input. The proxy maintains an interface model for accurate target localization and utilizes exchangeable actuators for physical actuation across a variety of device types, effectively reducing user workload and minimizing the risk of mistouch.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method, according to one embodiment, includes: receiving copies of notes that were originally recorded by participants, the notes corresponding to a source document. Note fragments in the received copies of notes are identified and one or more machine learning models are used to compare the identified note fragments to pages and paragraphs in the source document that the respective note fragments are located in. Based at least in part on the comparison, the identified note fragments are merged with a copy of the source document to form a pseudo-source document. Furthermore, the pseudo-source document is output.

Abstract: A power converter includes a power converter circuit and a microcontroller that controls the power converter circuit. The microcontroller includes a power control unit and a processing unit. The power control unit adjusts the switching frequency of the power converter circuit based on thresholds of a resonant capacitor of the power converter circuit. The power control unit also generates event signals indicative of breaches of the thresholds by the resonant capacitor. When the processing unit receives an event signal from the power control unit indicative of a breach of one of the thresholds by the resonant capacitor, the processing unit determines whether the switching frequency falls outside a defined range based on the event signal. In response to determining that the switching frequency falls outside the defined range, the processing unit instructs the power control unit to clamp the switching frequency of the power converter circuit.
