  • Publication number: 20230396557
    Abstract: Example methods and systems for policy-aware traffic forwarding for multiple types of network traffic are described. In one example, a computer system may extract identification information associated with a first client, wherein the first client is associated with a first type of network traffic and obtain a first policy associated with the first client. In response to detecting first network traffic of the first type from the first client, the computer system may (a) interwork the first network traffic into a data plane entity associated with the second type of network traffic, and (b) forward the first network traffic via the data plane entity according to the first policy. In response to detecting second network traffic of the second type from a second client, the computer system may forward the second network traffic via the data plane entity according to a second policy associated with the second client.

  • Patent number: 11369316
    Abstract: There is provided a system architecture including a PPG hardware module and a MEMS hardware module. The PPG hardware module processes PPG raw data, which is generally composed of analog signals or digital signals. The PPG hardware module filters the raw data for later digital calculation to, for example, find out frequency signals with higher peak values. The PPG hardware module then outputs the selected frequency signals to an MCU for heart rate calculation. The MEMS hardware module receives MEMS raw data from a motion detector made of MEMS elements. The MEMS raw data represents motion status of a user that could possibly affect the heart rate determination result. The MEMS hardware module filters the raw data for later digital calculation to find out frequency signals with higher peak values caused by motion.

  • Patent number: 11294171
    Abstract: A light sensing method, applied to a light sensing system comprising a light sensor and at least one light source. The light sensor comprises a plurality of light sensing units. The light sensing method comprises: controlling the light sensor to capture images according to the light source; generating an exposure condition according brightness that each of the light sensing units senses, to control all the light sensing units to generate a target brightness distribution according to the exposure condition; and controlling the light sensing units to sense light from the light source according to the exposure condition. The light sensing system can have a better SNR via adjusting the exposure condition for each one of the light sensing units. Such light sensing method can be applied to compute physiological parameters.
