Abstract: An audio system is proposed, dynamically playing optimized audio signals based on user position. A sensor circuits dynamically senses a target space to generate field context information. First speaker and second speaker are arranged for audio playback. A host device recognizes a user from the field context information, determines the user position corresponding to the target space, and adaptively assigns the user position as a target listening spot. A sensor circuit contains a camera capturing an ambient image out of the target space. A recognizer circuit analyzes the ambient image to obtain from the target space, the location, size, and acoustic attribute information of an ambient object, allowing the control circuit to accordingly perform a channel-based compensation operation on the target listening spot to generate optimized first channel audio signal and second channel audio signal.

Abstract: A video encoder and a video decoder are configured to take the variations in the third-dimensional parts of video frames into consideration. The video encoder determines how to generate compressed data of a late video frame according to a three-dimensional difference between an early video frame and the late video frame, and the video encoder includes a decision circuit and an encoding circuit. The decision circuit generates a decision result according to the three-dimensional difference between the early video frame and the late video frame. The encoding circuit performs a three-dimensional compression process to the late video frame when the decision result indicates that the three-dimensional difference satisfies a predetermined condition, and the encoding circuit performs a routine compression process to the late video frame when the three-dimensional difference does not satisfy the predetermined condition.

Abstract: A carrying device is provided. The carrying device includes a stand, an upper clamp connected to the stand, a lower clamp assembled to the stand, a manipulation mechanism assembled to the stand and interlinked with the lower clamp, and a supporting column assembled to the lower clamp. The manipulation mechanism can drive the lower clamp to move relative to the upper clamp, and the upper clamp and the lower clamp jointly define a receiving space therebetween. The supporting column is movable relative to the lower clamp, so that the carrying device can be adjusted in a first clamping mode or a second clamping mode. When the carrying device is in the first clamping mode, the supporting column is located in the receiving space and faces toward the upper clamp, so that the supporting column and the upper clamp can jointly clamp a plate part of a first structure.
