  • Patent number: 11662861
    Abstract: An information handling system presents visual images at a display that includes a display panel having a capacitive touch detection surface supported by an indium tin oxide layer disposed between a front layer, such as polarizer, and a display cell. To prevent excessive charge build up associated with the capacitive touch detection surface, a conductive ink is applied at the display panel perimeter and interfaced with a ground at the rear side of the display panel. In one example embodiment, a non-conductive ink insulates the conductive ink from the display panel except as desired to transfer excess charge from the indium tin oxide layer. The conductive ink may interface directly with the indium tin oxide layer or indirectly through a second non-conductive ink having greater conductivity than the insulative non-conductive ink.

  • Patent number: 11658031
    Abstract: Implantation mask formation techniques described herein include increasing an initial aspect ratio of a pattern in an implantation mask by non-lithography techniques, which may include forming a resist hardening layer on the implantation mask. The pattern may be formed by photolithography techniques to the initial aspect ratio that reduces or minimizes the likelihood of pattern collapse during formation of the pattern. Then, the resist hardening layer is formed on the implantation mask to increase the height of the pattern and reduce the width of the pattern, which increases the aspect ratio between the height of the openings or trenches and the width of the openings or trenches of the pattern. In this way, the pattern in the implantation mask may be formed to an ultra-high aspect ratio in a manner that reduces or minimizes the likelihood of pattern collapse during formation of the pattern.

  • Publication number: 20230144893
    Abstract: Methods and systems described herein are directed to creating an artificial reality environment having elements automatically created from source images. In response to a creation system receiving the source images, the system can employ a multi-layered comparative analysis to obtain virtual object representations of objects depicted in the source images. A first set of the virtual objects can be selected from a library by matching identifiers for the depicted objects with tags on virtual objects in the library. A second set of virtual objects can be objects for which no candidate first virtual objects was adequately matched in the library, prompting the creation of a virtual object by generating depth data and skinning a resulting 3D mesh based on the source images. Having determined the virtual objects, the system can compile them into the artificial reality environment according to relative locations determined from the source images.

  • Publication number: 20230141069
    Abstract: A second stage regulator suitable for both right-handed and left-handed divers comprises a housing, a mouthpiece, a decompression mechanism, an exhaust mechanism and an airflow adjustment mechanism. The airflow adjustment mechanism can control the output air volume by adjusting the size of the vent. Even in the state of small air volume, the diver only needs to inhale a little to push the second stage output and inhale the air smoothly. The diver can control the direction of the airflow by operating the airflow adjustment mechanism to avoid being choked by the air when the air volume is large. The exhaust holes of the exhaust mechanism is arranged on the side and the exhaust mechanism is facing the left rear side of the housing, which can prevent the exhaust valve from being compressed due to the pressure of water flow when the diver is swimming.

  • Publication number: 20230143440
    Abstract: This disclosure provides a battery management system. The battery management system comprises a buck converter, a discharge loop, and a microprocessor. The microprocessor comprises a battery status monitoring circuit, a timer, and a controller. When the status of the battery is in a static state, the timer starts counting a time. If the time counted by the timer is greater than or equal to a time threshold, the controller controls that the buck converter executes a bucking to an output voltage of the battery, and then controls that the discharge loop executes a discharging to the battery. Accordingly, when the status of the battery is in a static state, the battery capacity can be discharged to a safe value moderately, so that the safety of the long-storage of the battery can be ensured, and the life of the battery can be prolonged.
