  • Publication number: 20230246372
    Abstract: The present utility model discloses a multi-position change-over device and a multi-side socket with it, wherein each of at least three sides of a core frame is arranged with a first slot and a second slot which are paired; meanwhile, the first slots located on two adjacent sides are intersected to form the first mounting grooves used for installing a first conducting sheet and the second slots located on two adjacent sides are intersected to form the second mounting grooves used for installing a second conducting sheet so that the first slots located on two adjacent sides share one first conducting sheet and the second slots located on two adjacent sides share one second conducting sheet in order to make the core frame smaller, save the consumption of the first conducting sheet and the second conducting sheet and improve the assembly efficiency and thus make the whole multi-side socket smaller, more exquisite, easier to carry and cost-lower.

  • Patent number: 11705682
    Abstract: A multi-position conversion device and a conversion socket with the multi-position conversion device; the first pin, the second pin, the first connecting sheet and the second connecting sheet are installed together onto the main frame to modularize and integrate the conversion device; therefore, only one main frame is needed to complete the installation of the first pin, the second pin, the first connecting sheet and the second connecting sheet, and this can effectively decrease the volume of the multi-position conversion device and thus decrease the volume and weight of the whole conversion socket, prevent the conversion socket from sagging due to gravity and thus increase the corresponding user experience and safety; meanwhile, after being modularized, the multi-position conversion device is installed directly into the housing and thus can decrease the assembling steps, reduce the assembling difficulty and finally improve the assembling efficiency.

  • Patent number: 11119322
    Abstract: An imaging display system in the field of augmented reality technology comprises a waveguide structure (14) disposed on an outer surface of an exit surface (7) of a polarization beam splitter (3) of an optical engine module (A). The waveguide structure is tubular. One end (15) of the waveguide structure is connected to the exit surface and together with the exit surface forms a preset angle (?). The other end of the waveguide structure is a free end. The imaging display system expands an eye motion box (EMB) by means of the waveguide structure. The preset angle formed between the waveguide structure and the exit surface causes light (22) incident on the waveguide structure to undergo total internal reflection inside the waveguide structure.

  • Patent number: 10701534
    Abstract: In a vehicle-to-vehicle communication system, an intersection-located road side unit (RSU) having two omni-antennas applies spatial filtering to the antennas' RX signals to recover first and second overlapping basic safety messages (BSMs) concurrently transmitted by two intersection-approaching vehicles that have no direct line of sight (NLOS) between them. The RSU retransmits each BSM for receipt by the other vehicle using either an omnidirectional retransmission technique in which the two messages are sequentially transmitted using an omnidirectional beam-pattern, a directional retransmission technique in which the two messages are sequentially transmitted using directional beam-patterns, or an XOR retransmission technique in which the RSU applies an XOR operation to the two BSMs and transmits the resulting XOR message using an omnidirectional beam-pattern. A receiving vehicle can apply an XOR operation to the XOR message and a local copy of the first BSM message to recover the second BSM message.

  • Publication number: 20190293943
    Abstract: Example systems and methods are described that help increase the situational awareness of a user of a helmet, such as a motorcycle helmet. One or more cameras are physically coupled to the helmet, where each camera includes a lens and an associated image sensor. Each camera is configured to generate a video feed, which is presented to a user on a display. The video feed represents a field-of-view around the helmet, and may be projected onto a surface, such as the visor of the helmet, thereby enabling enhanced situational awareness for the user of the helmet.
