  • Patent number: 12261956
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for preserving user privacy when selecting content are described. In some aspects, a method includes receiving a data element identifying a set of candidate digital components and, for each candidate digital component, a set of distribution parameters for the candidate digital component. For each candidate digital component, encrypted selection data for the candidate digital component is provided as input to a cryptographic analysis application running in a trusted hardware module of a client device. The encrypted selection data represents the set of distribution parameters for the candidate digital component and is encrypted using a zero-knowledge proof protocol. The cryptographic analysis application is configured to determine a measure of match between the selection data and user attributes of a user of the client device.

  • Patent number: 12226794
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a spreading unit having a shaper for spreading viscous material, in particular sealing material, on a component, wherein the shaper has a first shaping contour for shaping the viscous material in the process of the spreading, wherein at least a second shaping contour of the shaper for shaping the viscous material can be brought by means of an actuator, in a direction of spreading, into superimposition with the first shaping contour, so that a shape of the shaper is adjustable during an application process.

  • Patent number: 12131533
    Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide visualizations of non-visible features of a physical environment, at the location of the non-visible features in the physical environment. The non-visible features may include wireless communications signals, sounds, airflow, gases, subsonic and/or ultrasonic waves, hidden objects, or the like. A device may store visual contexts for visualizations of particular non-visible features. The device may obtain a depth map that allows the device to determine the location of the non-visible feature in the physical environment and to overlay the visualization on a user's view of that location. In this way, the non-visible feature can be visualized its correct location, orientation, direction and/or strength in the physical environment.

  • Publication number: 20240280171
    Abstract: The valve module can be installed regardless of an oil level, for example of an oil level of an oil sump of a motor vehicle. By means of a buffer volume having an overflow it is always guaranteed that a leakage flow conveyed past a valve piston includes no air but consists solely of hydraulic medium, since the overflow guarantees a level of hydraulic medium which lies above an upper face of the valve piston in a preferred installation position. As a result, foaming of the hydraulic medium can be prevented. The valve module can also be installed above the oil sump, for example in an upper region of a gearbox of the motor vehicle. In addition, the oil from the overflow can be used for cooling/lubrication of further drive train components.

  • Patent number: 11831608
    Abstract: In various examples, firewalls may include machine learning models that are automatically trained and applied to analyze service inputs submitted to input processing services and to identify whether service inputs are desirable (e.g., will result in an undesirable status code if processed by a service). When a service input is determined by a firewall to be desirable, the firewall may push the service input through to the input processing service for normal processing. When a service input is determined by the firewall to be undesirable, the firewall may block or drop the service input before it reaches the input processing service and/or server. This may be used to prevent the service input, which is likely to be undesirable, from touching a server that hosts the input processing service (e.g., preventing a crash).
