  • Publication number: 20240098183
    Abstract: A marking method on image combined with sound signal, a terminal apparatus, and a server are provided. In the method, a first image is displayed. A selection command is detected. A target sound signal is embedded into a speech signal so as to generate a combined sound signal. The combined sound signal is transmitted. The selection command corresponds to a target region in the first image, and the selection command is generated selecting the target region through an input operation. The target sound signal corresponds to the target region of the selection command, and the speech signal is obtained by receiving sound. Accordingly, all attendants in the video conference are able to make makings on a shared screen.

  • Patent number: 11923251
    Abstract: A method includes forming a gate stack, which includes a gate dielectric and a metal gate electrode over the gate dielectric. An inter-layer dielectric is formed on opposite sides of the gate stack. The gate stack and the inter-layer dielectric are planarized. The method further includes forming an inhibitor film on the gate stack, with at least a portion of the inter-layer dielectric exposed, selectively depositing a dielectric hard mask on the inter-layer dielectric, with the inhibitor film preventing the dielectric hard mask from being formed thereon, and etching to remove a portion of the gate stack, with the dielectric hard mask acting as a portion of a corresponding etching mask.

  • Patent number: 9575237
    Abstract: A light guide element and a light source device using the same are provided. The light guide element has a main body. The main body has a hollow portion with a cone shape and a microstructure pattern formed on the main body. The cone-shaped hollow portion has a bottom portion and a top portion. The bottom portion is located on the bottom surface of the main body, and has a first hollow cross section area. The top portion is opposite to the bottom surface, and has a second cross section area smaller than the first cross section area. The microstructure pattern includes high-density areas and low-density areas to improve a light distribution caused by the cone-shaped hollow portion. The light source device includes the light guide element and a ht emitting diode (LED). The LED is used to emit light into the cone-shape hollow portion through the bottom portion.
