Patent number: 11940375Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the technical field of fiber-optic gas sensing and laser photoacoustic spectroscopy, and reliability of a gas detection system is improved by actively selecting a working frequency of low noise interference combined with an optical fiber photoacoustic sensing probe capable of isolating high-frequency noise. A gas enters a photoacoustic microcavity through gaps on a sound-sensitive diaphragm after diffusing into a miniature air chamber through a plurality of micropores. Photoacoustic excitation light is incident into the photoacoustic microcavity through a fiber-optic collimator and then excited to generate a photoacoustic pressure wave to cause the sound-sensitive diaphragm to vibrate periodically. An end face of a single-mode optical fiber and the sound-sensitive diaphragm constitutes a fiber-optic Fabry-Perot interferometer. The interferometer measures a deflection of the diaphragm and inverts a concentration of the to-be-measured gas.Type: GrantFiled: November 26, 2021Date of Patent: March 26, 2024Assignees: STATE GRID ANHUI ELECTRIC POWER RESEARCH INSTITUTE, Dalian University of TechnologyInventors: Fengxiang Ma, Ke Chen, Yue Zhao, Feng Zhu, Min Guo, Yu Tian, Xiaofang Yuan, Yabin Ma, Chen Hang

Patent number: 11893309Abstract: In response to a user interacting with a tangible peripheral assistant control device (e.g., depressing a button of the device), causing an automated assistant to perform one or more actions. The action(s) performed can be based on input previously provided by the user in configuring the peripheral assistant control device. The action(s) performed in response to interaction with the peripheral assistant control device can vary based on one or more conditions, such as which user is currently active, where the peripheral assistant control device is currently located (which can optionally be inferred based on which of multiple assistant computing devices the button is paired with), and/or the current state of one or more smart devices and/or other devices (e.g., as determined based on a device topology). A utility of the peripheral assistant control device can be automatically extended beyond what was specifically requested by a user during configuration.Type: GrantFiled: March 10, 2022Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Tomer Amarilio, Yuzhao Ni, Bryan Allen, Norbert Tydingco, Will Donnelly, Feng Yuan, Nathaniel Nesiba, Anurag Jain, Jacky Cheung, Ronghui Zhu, Chunya Hua, Gregory Kielian

Publication number: 20240012663Abstract: In various examples, source archives may be classified, sorted, downloaded, and installed using command files for container image generation. For example, a user may select source archives for inclusion in a container build operation, and the system may classify the source archives as belonging to one of any number of classes and/or sub-classes. Where a size of the source archive is below an associated threshold, the source archive may be included in the container image using native context copy operations. In contrast, where the size of the source archive is above the associated threshold, the source archive may be included in the container image using a local HTTP auto copy operation—e.g., by creating a local HTTP server, and generating a command line such that a container builder retrieves the archive information via the local HTTP server.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 7, 2021Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: Feng Yuan, Kaustubh Purandare
