Abstract: Embodiments of the present application provide a method and a device for controlling train formation tracking, the method comprising: obtaining a current distance between a first train and a second train in a train formation, wherein the first train is adjacent to the second train and located behind the second train; determining a target tracking mode of the first train based on the current distance, wherein the target tracking mode is one of a speed tracking mode, a distance tracking mode and a braking mode; and tracking the second train, by the first train based on the target tracking mode. Tracking efficiency is improved according to the method of the embodiments of the present application.

Abstract: A heat exchanger includes a collecting pipe, a number of heat exchange tubes and a distribution pipe. A pipe wall of the distribution pipe defines a number of through holes communicating with the collecting pipe. The through holes are a first through hole, . . . an (n?1)th through hole and an nth through hole disposed in sequence along a direction from a first end to a second end of the distribution pipe. A distance between an (i+1)th through hole and an ith through hole is: di=?iL0, i=1, 2, . . . n?1, ?=0.618, L0 is a distance between adjacent heat exchange tubes. As a result, uniformity of refrigerant distribution in the heat exchanger is improved.

Abstract: Examples of eye-imaging apparatus using diffractive optical elements are provided. For example, an optical device comprises a substrate having a proximal surface and a distal surface, a first coupling optical element disposed on one of the proximal and distal surfaces of the substrate, and a second coupling optical element disposed on one of the proximal and distal surfaces of the substrate and offset from the first coupling optical element. The first coupling optical element can be configured to deflect light at an angle to totally internally reflect (TIR) the light between the proximal and distal surfaces and toward the second coupling optical element, and the second coupling optical element can be configured to deflect at an angle out of the substrate. The eye-imaging apparatus can be used in a head-mounted display such as an augmented or virtual reality display.

Abstract: Several unique hardware configurations and methods for freeform optical display systems are disclosed. A freeform display system includes primary freeform optical element(s) and secondary freeform optical element(s) in tiled arrangements to expand the horizontal field of view (FOV) or the vertical field of view. The system may include a variable focusing system that produces intermediate pupil and changes the focal distance of a single focal plane or switches among multiple focal planes for rendering objects in focus while resolving accommodation-convergence conflict. The system may map light samples to appropriate light rays in physical space and use a cluster of projectors to project the mapped light rays to produce the light field of the virtual display content. Methods for making tiled freeform optical display systems and methods for producing virtual content with variable focus freeform optics and rendering light fields are also disclosed.
