    Abstract: The present application relates to a temperature detection circuit and method, an electronic device, and a computer-readable storage medium. The temperature detection circuit includes: a temperature detection module, configured to charge a charging module based on a detected temperature; a timing module, configured to detect the voltage of the charging module to determine a charging rate of the temperature detection module, generate a first time signal corresponding to the charging rate, and send the first time signal to the processing module; and a processing module, configured to determine a target temperature value through the first time signal. The temperature detection module is configured to charge the charging module based on the detected temperature, so that the charging rate can quickly reflect the detected temperature, which ensures the rate of temperature detection. Meanwhile, the charging rate can accurately match the target temperature value corresponding to the current temperature.

  • Patent number: 12282022
    Abstract: A rapid, ultrasensitive and inexpensive nanoplasmon-enhanced scattering (nPES) assay that directly quantifies tumor-derived EVs from as little as 1 ?{umlaut over ({acute over (?)})}, of plasma is described herein. This assay uses binding of gold nanospheres and nanorods with EV- and tumor-derived EV-specificities to produce a local plasmon effect that enhances tumor-derived EV detection sensitivity and specificity. This nPES approach is also a non-invasive method for assessing pancreatic cancer stage and treatment response that can be easily refined for clinical use, and is readily adapted for diagnosis and monitoring of other conditions with disease-specific EV proteins.

  • Patent number: 12277800
    Abstract: The subject matter described in this disclosure can be embodied in methods and systems for stabilizing video. A computing system determines a stabilized location of a facial feature in a frame of video accounting for its location in a previous frame. The computing system determines a physical camera pose in virtual space and maps the frame into virtual space. The computing system determines an optimized virtual camera pose using an optimization process that determines (1) a difference between the stabilized location of the facial feature and a location of the facial feature when viewed from a potential virtual camera pose, (2) a difference between the potential virtual camera pose and a previous virtual camera pose, and (3) a difference between the potential virtual camera pose and the physical camera pose. The computing system generates the stabilized view of the frame using the optimized virtual camera pose.

  • Patent number: 12167134
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs stored on a computer-readable storage medium, for video stabilization. In some implementations, a computer system obtains frames of a video captured by a recording device using an optical image stabilization (OIS) system. The computing system receives (i) OIS position data indicating positions of the OIS system during capture of the frames, and (ii) device position data indicating positions of the recording device during capture of the frames. The computing system determines a first transformation for a particular frame based on the OIS position data for the particular frame and device position data for the particular frame. The computing system determines a second transformation for the particular frame based on the first transformation and positions of the recording device occurring after capture of the particular frame. The computing system generates a stabilized version of the particular frame using the second transformation.

  • Publication number: 20240169498
    Abstract: Systems and methods for real-time image deblur and stabilization can utilize sensor data for estimating motion blur without the high computational cost of image analysis techniques. The estimated motion blur can then be utilized to generate a motion blur kernel for image correction. The systems and methods can further refine the correction by processing the motion blur kernel with a polynomial filter to generate a sharpening kernel. The systems and methods can provide for real-time correction even with minimal to no stabilization masking.
