Publication number: 20250025345Abstract: The invention pertains to a vented goggle that optimizes air circulation to enhance user comfort and mitigate fogging. Key features include a frame that houses a lens and has both an inlet and an outlet for airflow, with a channel connecting the two. The frame's exterior surface faces away from the user, while its interior surface contacts the user's face. A vented cover can be incorporated on the outlet, and liner material may be applied to the interior surface or inner periphery of the frame for enhanced comfort. Multiple pairs of inlets and outlets can be included for superior ventilation. A removable insert forms a duct in the channel and also serves as an attachment point for a goggle strap. The design offers improved performance and comfort in a variety of environments and activities.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 18, 2023Publication date: January 23, 2025Inventors: Doug Davidson KARLSON, Justin Marc HERTEL

Patent number: 10701042Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a server learning new words generated by user client devices in a crowdsourced manner while maintaining local differential privacy of client devices. A client device can determine that a word typed on the client device is a new word that is not contained in a dictionary or asset catalog on the client device. New words can be grouped in classifications such as entertainment, health, finance, etc. A differential privacy system on the client device can comprise a privacy budget for each classification of new words. If there is privacy budget available for the classification, then one or more new terms in a classification can be sent to new term learning server, and the privacy budget for the classification reduced. The privacy budget can be periodically replenished.Type: GrantFiled: October 12, 2018Date of Patent: June 30, 2020Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Abhradeep Guha Thakurta, Andrew H. Vyrros, Umesh S. Vaishampayan, Gaurav Kapoor, Julien Freudiger, Vivek Rangarajan Sridhar, Doug Davidson
