  • Publication number: 20240152196
    Abstract: An apparatus includes a light modulator configured to modulate light to display frames of images based on display image data, and a controller coupled to the light modulator. The controller is configured to obtain a sequence of image data to be displayed by the light modulator; produce the display image data based on the sequence of image data; transmit the display image data to the light modulator; determine, based on the sequence of image data, to enter one or more sleep modes that reduce power usage by the controller, the light modulator, or an interface between the controller and the light modulator compared to a normal operation mode; and enter one or more extended sleep modes that have lower power usage than the one or more sleep modes if an extended sleep mode signal is detected in the sequence of image data.

  • Patent number: 11976215
    Abstract: Solutions to the problems of scuffing and chipping of the paint films in high traffic areas and in tight spaces, such as dressing rooms in department stores, where multiple scrapings of the wall paints are created by consumers, clothes hangers, shoes, etc., and hallways and conference rooms in office and other commercial buildings are disclosed. Wax seeded latex polymers admixed with an added wax in architectural compositions and optionally with polyurethane resin are utilized to create paint films that are resistant to scuffing and chipping.

  • Patent number: 11964124
    Abstract: Guided relay infusion systems and methods are provided. A guided relay infusion system may be a portion of an infusion pump that can simultaneously deliver a medical fluid from two syringes. When a first one of the syringes is running out of the medical fluid and a second one of the syringes is more full of the medical fluid than the first one of the syringes, guided relay messages are provided for a relay handoff from the first one of the syringes to the second one of the syringes that ensures a smooth continuous delivery of more of the medical fluid than the first one of the syringes holds.

  • Publication number: 20020191197
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for optical multi-angle in situ CMP endpoint detection include a sensor block having light emitting channels, light receiving channels and an opening where the light emitting channels terminate and the light receiving channels originate and means for determining endpoint based on the amount of reflected light that is received from the light receiving channels. At least a portion of the sensor block is embedded in a polishing pad backer such that the light emitting channels can emit light through a polishing pad window to the surface of a wafer and the light receiving channels can receive light reflected from the wafer surface through the polishing pad window. Connectors may be used to connect a light source to the light emitting channels and a light detector to the light receiving channels.
