  • Publication number: 20250130198
    Abstract: A method includes following steps. A beating pulse of a cardiac cell is monitored by using a biologically sensitive field-effect transistor (BioFET) disposed within a semiconductor substrate. A temperature around the cardiac cell is detected by using a temperature-sensing diode disposed within the semiconductor substrate. In response to the detected temperature falling below a predetermined threshold, the cardiac cell is heated by using a heater disposed within the semiconductor substrate. The cardiac cell is placed within a fluid containment region above the BioFET, and the temperature-sensing diode occupies a larger area within the fluid containment region than the heater.

  • Patent number: 12280889
    Abstract: An aerial vehicle is configured to operate within indoor spaces. The aerial vehicle is programmed with positions of waypoints within three-dimensional space, and to calculate a trajectory for traveling through such waypoints in a manner that minimizes snap of the aerial vehicle. Where a distance between a pair of the waypoints is sufficiently long, the aerial vehicle inserts intervening waypoints for planning purposes, and programs the aerial vehicle to travel at a maximum speed between the intervening waypoints. Upon detecting an obstacle with a first range using one or more sensors, the aerial vehicle reduces its speed and monitors a second, shorter range using the sensors, and compensates for motion between such readings.

    Abstract: The present application relates to a power-off protection method and apparatus, a device, and a storage medium. The main technical solution includes: in response to power sourcing equipment (PSE) being about to stop supplying power to a power device (PD) within a predetermined time, sending a first link layer discovery protocol (LLDP) message to the PD; receiving a second LLDP message, which is replied by the PD according to the first LLDP message; and powering off the PD according to the second LLDP message. The present application can not only avoid the interruption of the current tasks of a PD as much as possible, but can also record power-off reasons, so as to facilitate tracing to maintain the normal operation of a device, thereby ensuring the security of data and the device.

  • Patent number: 12283568
    Abstract: Alignment of devices formed on substrates that are to be bonded may be achieved through the use of scribe lines between the devices, where the scribe lines progressively increase or decrease in size from a center to an edge of one or more of the substrates to compensate for differences in the thermal expansion rates of the substrates. The devices on the substrates are brought into alignment as the substrates are heated during a bonding operation due to the progressively increased or decreased sizes of the scribe lines. The scribe lines may be arranged in a single direction in a substrate to compensate for thermal expansion along a single axis of the substrate or may be arranged in a plurality of directions to compensate for actinomorphic thermal expansion.
