  • Patent number: 11098765
    Abstract: An elastic short-pin type universal joint includes a first base, a second base, a jointer, a first elastic member, two second elastic members, and four short pins. The first base engages the second base to form a space therebetween. The jointer is received in the space between the first and the second bases. The jointer has a first bore passing through the jointer, a second bore, and a third bore. The first elastic member is received in the first bore of the jointer, and the second elastic members are received in the second bore and the third bore. The short pins are urged by ends of the first elastic member and the second elastic members to press the first base and the second base respectively. As a result, the first base is able to rotate related to the second base in all directions.

  • Publication number: 20210253046
    Abstract: In general, one or more loads, such as a sensor suite of an autonomous (or semi-autonomous) vehicle, may be configured to draw power from a supercapacitor. A switching mechanism can selectively connect or disconnect the one or more loads and the supercapacitor from a voltage source of a vehicle power system. By systematically disconnecting the voltage source from the supercapacitor and the one or more loads, the exposure of the voltage source to the one or more loads is minimized. Accordingly, the exposure of the voltage source of the vehicle power system to potentially damaging short circuits or power surges that may arise in relation to the one or more loads can also be minimized.

  • Patent number: 11088677
    Abstract: A signal receiving device includes a first amplifier, a duty cycle adjuster and a common mode feedback circuit. The first amplifier receives an input signal, a reference voltage and a bias voltage. The first amplifier generates a first common current based on the bias voltage and, based on the first common current, generates a first output signal and a second output signal complementary to each other by comparing the input signal and the reference voltage. The duty cycle adjuster charges and discharges a selected capacitor according to the first output signal or the second output signal to generate a sensing voltage, and generates a common reference voltage according to the sensing voltage. The common mode feedback circuit generates the bias voltage by comparing the common reference voltage and the reference voltage.

  • Patent number: 11048978
    Abstract: Methods and systems for meta-learning are described for automating learning of child tasks with a single neural network. The order in which tasks are learned by the neural network can affect performance of the network, and the meta-learning approach can use a task-level curriculum for multi-task training. The task-level curriculum can be learned by monitoring a trajectory of loss functions during training. The meta-learning approach can learn to adapt task loss balancing weights in the course of training to get improved performance on multiple tasks on real world datasets. Advantageously, learning to dynamically balance weights among different task losses can lead to superior performance over the use of static weights determined by expensive random searches or heuristics. Embodiments of the meta-learning approach can be used for computer vision tasks or natural language processing tasks, and the trained neural networks can be used by augmented or virtual reality devices.
