  • Patent number: 11373281
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for anchor frame switching in an imaging system are described. A device may generate a pixel map based on a set of frames. A first subset of frames of the set of frames have a first exposure and a second subset of frames of the set of frames have a second exposure different than the first exposure. The device may determine a region of the pixel map representing motion between at least two frames of the first set of frames. If the device determines that a quantity of motion pixels in the region is higher than a threshold, the device may select a short exposure frame as an anchor frame, beginning at a later frame. Otherwise, the device may maintain using a long exposure frame as the anchor frame.

  • Publication number: 20220091683
    Abstract: A ring input device, and more particularly to pressure-sensitive input mechanisms within the ring input device that detect pressure to initiate an operation, is disclosed. Because finger rings are often small and routinely worn, electronic finger rings can be employed as unobtrusive communication devices that are readily available to communicate wirelessly with other devices capable of receiving those communications. Ring input devices according to examples of the disclosure can detect press inputs on its band to generate inputs that can then be wirelessly communicated to companion devices.

  • Publication number: 20220085401
    Abstract: A flow battery system and methods are provided for eliminating crossover issues of active materials in redox flow batteries. A solid adsorbent with large specific surface area is disposed in an electrolyte of at least one half-cell, in contact with the electrolyte. During a charging process, the active material in a charged state is captured and stored on surfaces of the adsorbent, so that concentrations of the active material in the electrolyte in the charged state is reduced and the crossover is inhibited. During a discharging process, the active material is desorbed from the adsorbent to the electrolyte and pumped into the stack for reaction. The flow battery stack can have a microporous membrane separator. The electrolyte of the flow battery includes zinc iodide as active material and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as an additive.
