Patent number: 12164730Abstract: A human body detecting sensor system includes a first electrode, a second electrode, a drive circuit, a detection circuit, and a comparison circuit. The second electrode is connected to the first electrode via a capacitor. The drive circuit generates a first signal having a prescribed frequency for driving the first electrode. The detection circuit detects a second signal generated at the second electrode in response to the first signal being supplied to the first electrode. The comparison circuit compares the first signal with the second signal. The comparison circuit detects a touch and/or an approach of an object, which has an impedance in a certain range corresponding to a human body, with respect to at least one of the first and second electrodes when a phase difference between the first signal and the second signal is within a prescribed range.Type: GrantFiled: November 19, 2021Date of Patent: December 10, 2024Assignee: Alps Alpine Co., Ltd.Inventors: Jared Bytheway, Tomoki Yamada

Patent number: 12034637Abstract: Systems and methods are provided to use a signed connection identifier to route packets of network traffic. Each network host can include a network device that independently routes the packets of network traffic without sharing state information with other network devices. A network device can receive a packet of network traffic and determine if the packet of network traffic includes a signed connection identifier. If the packet does not include a signed connection identifier, the network device can perform a load balancing operation to select a network host for the packet and generate a signed connection identifier for the packet identifying the selected network host. If the packet does include a signed connection identifier, the network device can encapsulate the packet and route the packet to a particular network host based on the signed connection identifier.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2021Date of Patent: July 9, 2024Assignee: Amazon Technologies, Inc.Inventors: Emmanuel Papirakis, Cameron Jared Bytheway, Matthias Einwag, Yashwanth Yadavalli, Yuchao Li, Jorge Peixoto Vasquez
