  • Patent number: 11108393
    Abstract: An optical keyswitch includes a keycap, a supporting mechanism having a protrusion disposed under the keycap to support the keycap to move downward or upward, and a switch module including a circuit board, an emitter, and a receiver. The emitter and the receiver are electrically connected to the circuit board. The emitter emits an optical signal to the receiver. When the keycap is not pressed, the receiver receives the optical signal of a first intensity. When the keycap is pressed, the protrusion moves along with the keycap, and the protrusion changes the optical signal received by the receiver to have a second intensity different from the first intensity, so the switch module is triggered to generate a triggering signal.

  • Publication number: 20210197390
    Abstract: A method for determining a standard depth value of a marker includes obtaining a maximum depth value of the marker. A reference depth value of the marker is obtained based on a depth image of the marker, and a Z-axis coordinate value of the marker is obtained based on a color image of the marker. When the reference depth value and the Z-axis coordinate value are both less than the maximum depth value, and a difference between the reference depth value and the Z-axis coordinate value is not greater than 0, the depth reference value is set as the standard depth value of the marker; and when the difference is greater than 0, the Z-axis coordinate value is set as the standard depth value of the marker.

  • Publication number: 20210182287
    Abstract: A user preference hierarchy is determined from user response to images. Images may be tagged using machine learning models trained to determine values for images. Products are clustered according to product vectors. Images of products within a cluster are clustered according to composition and groups of images are selected from image clusters for soliciting feedback regarding user preference for products of a cluster. Feedback is used to train a user preference model to estimate affinity for a product vector. A user may provide feedback regarding a price point and products are weighted according to a distribution about the price point. The distribution may be asymmetrical according to direction of movement of the price point. Filters may be dynamically defined and presented to a user based on popularity and frequency of occurrence of attribute-value pairs of search results and based on feedback regarding the search results.
