  • Publication number: 20220174198
    Abstract: An electronic device includes a camera and a position detection component arranged in an accommodating cavity. The position detection component includes a circuit board, a bracket, a first magnet, and a Hall sensor. The camera of the electronic device is arranged on the bracket, and the camera can stretch out of or retract into the accommodating cavity constituted by a housing. The Hall sensor includes a first working surface and a second working surface which respectively extend in different directions. The Hall sensor senses a magnetic field of the first magnet through the first working surface and the second working surface and generates induction signals. The induction signals are used to determine a stretching-out position and a retracting position of the camera.

  • Patent number: 11150159
    Abstract: An adaptive loading method for real-time hybrid simulation testing based on a space frame model. The system initial delay is controlled to be close to 0 before the loading of seismic wave by a dual compensation strategy for the initial delay based on the initial delay compensation and the adaptive loading segment, thereby solving the problem of insufficient estimation and compensation of the initial delay in the real-time hybrid simulation. In addition, the test substructure of the space frame model is equated as a test element, and the overall displacement response corresponding to the test substructure in the overall model is converted to the actual loading relative displacement of the test substructure by using the signal conversion module, thereby realizing the real-time loading of the large-scale spatial frame model with great rigidity.

For example, the methods receive from a plurality of sensing elements in a sensor array, first image data captured with a first exposure parameter, and second image data captured with a second exposure parameter. The methods partition first image data and second image data and determine values for each partition. The methods compute banding errors based on the determined values of the partitions for first image data and second image data. The methods also determine a banding error correction to one or more of first image data and second image data based on the banding errors. Further, the methods perform an automatic correction of the banding errors on one or more of first image data and second image based on the banding error correction.
