  • Publication number: 20240370217
    Abstract: Technical solutions are described that enable passengers on a commercial passenger vehicle interact with each other during a trip using their electronic devices by communicating using an on-board communication platform. The platform can provide an in-flight shared virtual environment or world that is accessible and traversable by passengers and that includes real-world and/or virtual for passengers to consume. Passengers can create or use virtual avatars to preserve anonymity and privacy while interacting and communicating with others within the in-flight shared virtual environment or world. Data records/logs capturing cross-passenger interactions or communications within the in-flight shared virtual environment can be purged after the vehicle's flight.

  • Publication number: 20240367795
    Abstract: Technical solutions are described that provide in-flight virtual experiences for passengers onboard a commercial passenger vehicle. In some examples, the in-flight virtual experiences simulate real-life experiences that relate to the respective travels or journeys of the passengers. For example, the in-flight virtual experiences can simulate, in various extended reality (XR) forms (e.g., virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), mixed reality (MR)), tourism attractions at journey destinations, vendor goods and services, and the like. The in-flight virtual experiences are provided via virtual experience applications implemented by an in-vehicle system, and multiple passengers can interact and collaborate in a combined session for a virtual experience application.

  • Patent number: 9621143
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to detecting and minimizing timing problems created by clock domain crossing (CDC) in integrated circuits. In various embodiments, one or more timing parameters are associated with a path that crosses between clock domains in an integrated circuit, where the one or more timing parameters specify a propagation delay for the path. In one embodiment, the timing parameters may be distributed to different design stages using a configuration file. In some embodiments, the one or more parameters may be used in conjunction with an RTL model to simulate propagation of a data signal along the path. In some embodiments, the one or more parameters may be used in conjunction with a netlist to create a physical design for the integrated circuit, where the physical design includes a representation of the path that has the specified propagation delay.
