Abstract: A storage device may recover from an uncorrectable read failure in a control block. The storage device includes a memory device divided into blocks. The blocks on the memory device may include control blocks for storing control information for accessing host data. A controller on the storage device may identify when an uncorrectable read failure occurs in a first control block. The controller may quarantine the first control block and notify a host device of the uncorrectable read failure. Based on a response from the host device, the controller may recover the storage device to operate in a normal mode such that a recovered storage device excludes the first control block from use.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to radiopaque polymer formulations comprising thermoplastic polymer and a filler. The filler comprises 25 wt % to 45 wt % of tungsten and 35 wt % to 55 wt % of barium sulfate.

Abstract: A microscope imaging system includes an objective (18) configured to collect light from a biological sample (S) for forming a magnified image of the biological sample. The microscope imaging system also includes a camera (14) including an imaging sensor. The imaging sensor is configured to detect the magnified image of the biological sample. The microscope imaging system further includes a tube lens (16) positioned between the objective and the camera. The tube lens is configured to project the magnified image of the biological sample onto the imaging sensor of the camera. The tube lens is spaced apart from the imaging sensor of the camera by a distance (D2) less than a focal length of the tube lens.

Abstract: A storage device postpones entry into a read-only mode due to faulty blocks that cannot be written to on a memory device. The memory device is divided into blocks. Blocks used for storing host data are placed in a main area pool, blocks used for storing host data and for peak write operations are placed in a burst pool, and blocks used for storing control information are placed in the control pool. A controller executes a read-only mode extension protocol to determine when a number of faulty blocks in the main area pool, control pool, or burst pool is approaching a threshold for placing the storage device in a read-only mode. If the storage device is approaching the read-only mode, the controller reduces and/or repurposes a number of the blocks used for storing host data in the burst pool to prevent the storage device from entering the read-only mode phase.

Abstract: Some implementations relate to an automated assistant that can provide assistant suggestions based on content that the user has requested for the automated assistant to render at a computing device. In some instances, an assistant suggestion can correspond to a portion of the content that is not being rendered at the computing device but that is part of the content that the user is accessing. In other instances, an assistant suggestion can be based on data that can indicate how one or more users may have interacted with their automated assistant when viewing the content. Therefore, an assistant suggestion can correspond to an assistant operation that may have been initialized by another user who had previously viewed the content. In some implementations, an arrangement of the assistant suggestions can be modified according to which part of the content a user is viewing and/or user distance.

Abstract: A device is described for providing state information of an automatic valet parking system. The device includes at least one off-board infrastructure component, which is located, in particular fixedly disposed within a parking area assigned to the automatic valet parking system. The infrastructure component is adapted for outputting state information of the automatic valet parking system. Thus, pieces of state information of the automatic valet parking system can be efficiently communicated.
