Publication number: 20210311381Abstract: The disclosed technology generally relates to displays, and more particularly to projection screens configured to display images with increased brightness and improved contrast and uniformity by using optical layers to control the direction and shape of the return light profiles. The disclosed technology comprises an optical layer configured such that incident light from a light source is directed towards specific positions for all locations on the reflective or transmissive display medium, and a light profile shaping optical layer configured to shape an intensity distribution of light reflected or transmitted from projection screen, prior to displaying the image to a viewer. The direction controlling optical layer and the light profile shaping optical layer may be combined into a single optical medium.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 11, 2019Publication date: October 7, 2021Inventors: Michael Wang, Ye Yuan, Kenneth Hwang, Peter M. Baumgart, Stephen Christopher Kekoa Hager

Publication number: 20210295358Abstract: A system includes a hardware processor and a memory storing software code for controlling distribution of ad surveys to target audiences. For each target audience, the hardware processor executes the software code to receive ad data describing an ad volume distributed to the target audience during a predetermined time interval of an ad campaign, and to receive survey data describing a survey volume distributed to the target audience and a survey response volume collected from the target audience during the predetermined time interval. The software code also determines a next survey sampling rate for the target audience based on the ad data and the survey data, such that the volume of survey responses collected from the target audience during matches an ad distribution volume for the target audience within a predetermined threshold during each predetermined time interval of the ad campaign.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 17, 2020Publication date: September 23, 2021Inventors: Binbin Li, Maxim Budninskiy, Joshua Rangsikitpho, Jamie Auslander, Kenneth Hwang, Amanda Conrad, Simon Asselin
