  • Patent number: 11940388
    Abstract: Example methods are provided to improve placement of an adaptor (210,220) to a mobile computing device (100) to measure a test strip (221) coupled to the adaptor (220) with a camera (104) and a screen (108) on a face of the mobile computing device (100). The method may include displaying a light area on a first portion of the screen (108). The first portion may be adjacent to the camera (104). The light area and the camera (104) may be aligned with a key area of the test strip (221) so that the camera (104) is configured to capture an image of the key area. The method may further include providing first guiding information for a user to place the adaptor (210,220) to the mobile computing device (100) according to a position of the light area on the screen (108).

  • Patent number: 8158474
    Abstract: A semiconductor device, such as a PMOS transistor, having localized stressors is provided. Recesses are formed on opposing sides of gate electrodes such that the recesses are offset from the gate electrode by dummy spacers. The recesses are filled with a stress-inducing layer. The dummy recesses are removed and lightly-doped drains are formed. Thereafter, new spacers are formed and the stress-inducing layer is recessed. One or more additional implants may be performed to complete source/drain regions. In an embodiment, the PMOS transistor may be formed on the same substrate as one or more NMOS transistors. Dual etch stop layers may also be formed over the PMOS and/or the NMOS transistors.

  • Publication number: 20100235163
    Abstract: A Chinese character or word encoding system and method for encoding a Unicode Differentiation Index (UDI) into the least significant 3 bits of one of the three component color of the foreground color of the RTF Chinese text. This encoded UDI value allows the correct identification of the encoded Chinese word. It also allows the identification of the traditional Chinese or simplified Chinese counterpart correctly. Further, the encoded UDI allows the identification of the font file differentiator when user is generating a correct Dualese script for a given Chinese word, wherein Dualese refers to a dual-script-in-one type of script.
