Publication number: 20260070733Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate to apparatuses and methods for brewing tea via pods. The pods can be configured to work with existing pod-based espresso machines to build up pressure within the pod thereby enabling better brewing of teas (e.g., matcha, chai, etc.). The pods can have interlocking ribs or tabs configured to interface with the espresso machine to prevent leakage during the brewing process. The pods can be completely biodegradable (e.g., compostable). In some embodiments, the pods can include bilayer films/meshes disposed at the top and bottom of the body of the pod. In some embodiments, the bilayer films include non-woven PLA fabrics and papers with specific mesh sizes configured to allow the existing espresso machines to pierce the films and enable brewing of the teas. The tea powders (e.g., matcha powder) disposed within the pods have specific meshes to enable proper dispersion in water without agglomeration of the matcha particles in the finished beverage.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2025Publication date: March 12, 2026Inventors: Chen Peng, Luna Yu, Junwei LV

Publication number: 20250277051Abstract: The present disclosure relates to anti-CD3 and anti-CD38 antibodies or antigen-binding fragments thereof. The present disclosure also relates to bispecific antibodies targeting both CD3 and CD8. To expand the therapeutic index, the bispecific antibodies may contain masking domains to minimize systemic toxicity. The unmasking of the shielded bispecific antibodies occurs predominantly by proteases and enzymes in the tumor microenvironment or in the disease tissues. The present disclosure also provides a unique design that employs a human VHO single domain molecule linked to the hinge region of an antibody, which may allow better tissue penetration than conventional antibodies.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 1, 2022Publication date: September 4, 2025Inventors: Mark CHIU, Man-Cheong FUNG, Mark TORNETTA, Brian WHITAKER, Pu PU, Ying JIN, Chen PENG, Kenneth Cheung KWONG, Ao YU, Glenn Mark ANDERSON

Publication number: 20250176468Abstract: A system, apparatus and method are provided for robotically assisting the harvest of a crop. Instrumented picker carts include sensors for detecting amounts of harvested crop (e.g., fill ratios) of containers carried by the carts, communication modules for communicating their locations and detected crop amounts to a field computer, and components for signaling for robotic service. The field computer predicts when a cart that requests service will have a full container and where it will be located at that time, then decides whether to approve the request. If the request is approved, a robot is assigned and is given (or generates) a path to the cart's predicted location, and begins moving toward the location so as to arrive near (and preferably before) the predicted time. Robots include means for moving (e.g., wheels, motors, steering components, power sources), navigation modules, computing components for controlling their movement, and communication modules.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 10, 2024Publication date: June 5, 2025Applicant: The Regents of the University of CaliforniaInventors: Stavros Vougioukas, Chen Peng, Dennis L.

Publication number: 20250029166Abstract: A computing system generates recommendations for users within the context of a network service. To account for objectives of various users associated with the network service, some of which may not reach optimality at the same time, the computing system generates values associated with each of the objectives separately. For example, for each objective, the system may train a computer model to produce a representative value. To generate a recommendation of an entity for a user, the system uses the generated objective values as inputs to an optimization algorithm. The optimization step may use linear programming or quadratic programming to generate a recommendation score, for example. This two-step process allows the system to account for multiple objectives and makes the system easily adaptable to change when the set of objectives is updated.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 3, 2024Publication date: January 23, 2025Inventors: Yuyan Wang, Xian Xing Zhang, Isaac Suyu Liu, Yuanchi Ning, Chen Peng

Patent number: 11157579Abstract: A delivery coordination system selects restaurant listings for presentation to a user by filtering out restaurants that are unlikely to be of interest to the user, while ensuring that restaurant listings are selected to encourage the success of all restaurants using the delivery coordination system. In response to receiving the listings request from a client device, the delivery coordination system selects a filtered set of restaurant listings from the plurality of restaurant listings stored by the delivery coordination system by applying filtering criteria to the plurality of stored restaurant listings. The delivery coordination system generates conversion scores for the restaurant in the filtered set of restaurant listings and selects restaurant listings to present to the user from the filtered set of restaurant listings based on selection factors, which can include the generated conversion scores. The delivery coordination system transmits the selected restaurant listings to the client device.Type: GrantFiled: May 29, 2020Date of Patent: October 26, 2021Assignee: Uber Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Xian Xing Zhang, Sidney Zhang, Yuyan Wang, Mihir Gogate, Yuanchi Ning, Chen Peng, Isaac Liu, Calvin Lee
