  • LASER PROJECTOR
    Publication number: 20180203337
    Abstract: A laser projector includes a light-mixing module and a light-splitting module. The light-mixing module provides a laser beam which includes first polarized light and second polarized light. The light-splitting module includes a dichroic mirror, a half-wave plate, a phosphor wheel module, and a light-guiding rod. The dichroic mirror allows the first polarized light to pass and reflects the second polarized light. The half-wave plate receives the first polarized light which passes the dichroic mirror and converts the first polarized light into third polarized light. The phosphor wheel module receives the second polarized light reflected by the dichroic mirror, and provides a stimulated light which passes the dichroic mirror. The light-guiding rod receives the stimulated light and the third polarized light, thereby providing an illumination beam.

  • Generating a Compact Video Feature Representation in a Digital Medium Environment
    Publication number: 20180173958
    Abstract: Techniques and systems are described to generate a compact video feature representation for sequences of frames in a video. In one example, values of features are extracted from each frame of a plurality of frames of a video using machine learning, e.g., through use of a convolutional neural network. A video feature representation is generated of temporal order dynamics of the video, e.g., through use of a recurrent neural network. For example, a maximum value is maintained of each feature of the plurality of features that has been reached for the plurality of frames in the video. A timestamp is also maintained as indicative of when the maximum value is reached for each feature of the plurality of features. The video feature representation is then output as a basis to determine similarity of the video with at least one other video based on the video feature representation.
