Abstract: Provided is a filter lens and a method for preparing the filter lens. The filter lens includes a copper complex, wherein the copper complex is formed from a copper compound providing copper ions, phosphoric acid represented by formula 1 herein, and at least one phosphorus-containing compound represented by formulas 2 to 4 herein, wherein the OD value of the filter lens for the incident light wavelength of 930 nm to 950 nm is greater than 4. The present disclosure enables a filter lens to have the function of filtering out near-infrared instead of using a traditional filter component and thus the size of the assembled optical lens module is reduced. The filter lens can further filter out light having other specific wavelengths, and thereby the number of lenses in the assembled optical lens module is reduced.

The ring portion is attached a first end of the stem portion. The at least one winged extension is attached to a second end of the stem portion. The base portion receives and securely locks the eye bolt therein. The base portion includes a collar and a platform secured to the collar. The collar forms a first aperture therein. The platform forms a second aperture therein. The platform includes a spring being located at least partially within the second aperture. A first end of the spring is attached to the platform. The second aperture formed in the platform is in spaced communication with the first aperture formed in the collar.

Abstract: Cable release devices and methods are disclosed. The device includes a frame defining an aperture. The frame is sized to fit around a connector on a printed circuit board (PCB) within a computer system with the connector extending into the aperture. The device further includes a post extending from the frame. The device further includes a lever connected to the post. The lever includes a first end positioned such that the first end aligns with a latch of a cable when the cable is connected to the connector and when the frame is around the connector such that actuation of the lever causes the lever to depress the latch. The actuation causes the release of the cable from being retained by the connector.

Abstract: In an example, in response to detecting a connection with a host computing made with a data and/or power delivery cable, a display device can present BIOS settings obtained from the host computing device via an on-screen display (OSD) of the display device and transmit inputs to the BIOS settings made via the OSD to the host computing device via the connection. Once received, the host computing device can store the inputs to the BIOS settings in a memory shared with an embedded controller (EC) of the host computing device. The EC can affect certain BIOS settings from the shared memory until the BIOS accesses the BIOS setting inputs from the shared memory and formally implement them during a subsequent, later reboot.

Abstract: An adjustable bracket for enclosing an open frame power supply unit (PSU) is disclosed. The adjustable bracket includes a first bracket section having a first primary plate and a first secondary plate extending generally vertically from one end of the first primary plate; and a second bracket section having a second primary plate and a second secondary plate extending generally vertically from one end of the second primary plate, the first secondary plate and the second secondary plate being generally parallel such that the first secondary plate faces the second secondary plate. The second primary plate is movably coupled to the first primary plate such that the adjustable bracket can be in a compact, intermediately extended, or fully extended configuration by adjusting the bracket according to a width of the open frame PSU, the width being different for a first open frame PSU than for a second open frame PSU.

Abstract: Example implementations relate to power supplied to ports based on charge amounts. In some examples, a computing device can include a charge storage device, an I/O port, and a processor, where the processor is to determine a charge amount of the charge storage device and an operating mode of the computing device, and determine an amount of power to be supplied to the I/O port based on the charge amount and the operating mode.

Abstract: An example computing device comprises: a media capture device to capture media; a pin coupled to the media capture device to communicate an unlock signal to the media capture device; and a basic input/output system interconnected with the pin, wherein, to control activation of the media capture device, the basic input/output system is to: store an authentication parameter, receive, from the media capture device, an unlock request; in response to the unlock request, verify an authentication input against the authentication parameter, and in response to a successful verification, send the unlock signal to unlock the media capture device via the pin.

Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to flexible control of devices installed on a vehicle. A controller may be configured to control a plurality of devices (e.g., original equipment manufacturer (OEM) devices and/or aftermarket devices) based on input via one or more OEM-installed switches. The controller may be configured to receive input from the one or more switches and control, based on a currently activated functionality of the controller, either a first device (e.g., an OEM device associated with the one or more switches) or a second device (e.g., an after-market device). Activation and/or deactivation of a functionality of the controller to control a specific device (e.g., an OEM device or an after-market device) may be based on a predetermined sequence as input via the one or more switches.

Abstract: Aspects of this disclosure relate to side-view mirror assemblies in vehicles and associated mirror controllers. A side-view mirror assembly may be configured with mirror tilt, power extend/retract, and power fold/unfold functionalities that may be electronically controllable via a mirror controller. The mirror controller may be interfaced with a tilt control switch and the side-view mirror assembly. The mirror controller may be configured to receive commands, via the mirror tilt control switch, and activate and/or deactivate the power extend/retract and power fold/unfold functionalities. Based on activation of the power extend/retract and power fold/unfold functionalities, the mirror tilt control switch may be used to cause extension, retraction, folding, and/or unfolding of a side-view mirror.

Abstract: Examples of computing devices for adjusting a display setting of an external display device are described herein. In an example, a computing device may include a power delivery (PD) controller that may transmit the display setting to the external display device, upon detecting that the external display device is connected to the computing device. In an example, the display setting may be transmitted in accordance with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) PD protocol. Once the external display device has adjusted a display panel based on the display setting, an acknowledgement may be sent to the PD controller.

Abstract: Examples of computing devices for modifying a feature in a standby mode based on power source capacity are described herein. In an example, a computing device may include a power source and a controller. While the computing device is in a standby mode and is being powered by the power source, the controller may monitor a remaining capacity of the power source. Upon determining that the capacity of the power source is below a threshold, the controller may modify a setting of a feature of the computing device.

Abstract: In an example, a computing device may include a battery, a controller to monitor an operation of the battery, and a basic input/output system (BIOS). The BIOS may initiate a boot process to load an operating system of the computing device. Further, the BIOS may obtain information associated with the operation of the battery from the controller during the boot process. Furthermore, the BIOS may update a log data structure to record the obtained information. Also, the BIOS may determine a health status of the battery based on the updated log data structure and output a notification, during the boot process, indicative of health of the battery based on the determined health status.
