    Abstract: Methods and systems for generating physiological metrics for display on a computing device are disclosed herein. In some implementations, an exemplary system comprises a torso wearable device including a wireless transmitter and a sensor, and non-transitory computer-readable media (CRM). The CRM, when executed by a computing device in communication with the wireless transmitter, can perform operations comprising: receiving the input signals representing respiration of the user; displaying a graphical user interface to the user; receiving one or more user inputs associated with a desired metric; displaying on the graphical user interface a first visualization corresponding to the desired metric; and displaying on the graphical user interface a second visualization corresponding to a physiological metric based on the input signals generated from the sensor. The second visualization can change in real time based on real time angular displacement of the sensor in response to the respiration of the user.

  • Patent number: 11917493
    Abstract: UE location determined by collecting and preprocessing signal data at a detector and sending extracted data to a remote locate server. The detector buffers samples from signals provided by receive channels, detects known reference signals from receive channels based on reference signal parameters, isolates symbols carrying the reference signal from frames, extracts data from symbols, and sends extracted data to locate server. The locate server receives the extracted data, estimates locate observables based on the extracted data and calculates the UE location based on the estimated locate observables, the reference signal parameters and the extracted data. The detector and/or the server may also generate correlation coefficients between reference signals carrying spectrum received from a serving cell and utilize the correlation coefficients to cancel a serving cell signal in symbols that include known in advance reference signals from the serving cell and one or more neighboring cells of the wireless system.

  • Publication number: 20240060851
    Abstract: A method, system, and computer program product for determining a core-to-ferrule offset of a ferrule for a fiber optic connector. A reference ferrule is physically aligned with a core imager by positioning the reference ferrule so that edges of the reference ferrule in a plurality of profile images are aligned with fiducial markers in the images. The reference ferrule is incrementally rotated about its longitudinal center access, a core image captured at each rotational angle, and a reference core-to-ferrule offset determined based on the core images. A test ferrule is physically aligned with the core imager by positioning the test ferrule so that edges of the test ferule are aligned with the edges of the reference ferrule in a plurality of profile images. The core-to-ferrule offset of the test ferrule is then determined based on an offset between the test and reference cores in a composite core image.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes a CPU core, a first cache subsystem coupled to the CPU core, and a second memory coupled to the cache subsystem. The first cache subsystem includes a configuration register, a first memory, and a controller. The controller is configured to: receive a request directed to an address in the second memory and, in response to the configuration register having a first value, operate in a non-caching mode. In the non-caching mode, the controller is configured to provide the request to the second memory without caching data returned by the request in the first memory. In response to the configuration register having a second value, the controller is configured to operate in a caching mode. In the caching mode the controller is configured to provide the request to the second memory and cache data returned by the request in the first memory.

  • Patent number: 11887239
    Abstract: A system provides the ability to import large engineering 3D models from a primary 3D rendering software into a secondary 3D rendering software that does not have the tools of the resources to render the larger 3D model on its own. The system uses a plugin to combine 3D data from the two software sources, and then return the combined 3D data to the secondary 3D rendering software. Components of the system can be remote or cloud based, and the system facilitates video streaming of 3D rendered models that can be manipulated on any computer capable of supporting a video stream.

  • Patent number: 11852549
    Abstract: The hybrid measurement system includes an evanescent prism coupling spectroscopy (EPCS) sub-system and a light-scattering polarimetry (LSP) sub-system. The EPCS sub-system includes an EPCS light source system optically coupled to an EPCS detector system through an EPCS coupling prism. The LSP sub-system includes an LSP light source optically coupled to an optical compensator, which in turn is optically coupled to a LSP detector system via a LSP coupling prism. A support structure supports the EPCS and LSP coupling prisms to define a coupling prism assembly, which supports the two prisms at a measurement location. Stress measurements made using the EPCS and LSP sub-systems are combined to fully characterize the stress properties of a transparent chemically strengthened substrate. Methods of processing the EPCS and LSP measurements and enhanced configurations of the EPCS and LPS sub-systems to improve measurement accuracy are also disclosed.
