Abstract: Examples described herein relate to allocating different lanes of an interface to different processor socket partitions and causing a processor socket partition to boot by accessing firmware by routing a request for the firmware to a device via one or more lanes of the interface and receiving the firmware from the one or more lanes. In some examples, the first host interface circuitry is to route an access to system address space for the first boot firmware to a particular lane of the first host interface circuitry.

Abstract: Optimizing compositor workload in steady state in processor devices is disclosed herein. In some aspects, a processor device is configured to perform image compositing by executing a compositor pipeline that comprises a compositor including a workload handler; a composer Hardware Abstraction Layer (HAL); a workload governor communicatively coupled to the composer HAL; and a display driver. The workload governor detects that the image compositing has entered a steady state, and transmits an indication to enter an accelerated mode to the workload handler. Upon receiving the indication, the workload handler places the compositor pipeline in the accelerated mode. While in the accelerated mode, the compositor transmits accelerated mode data directly to the display driver, bypassing the composer HAL.

Abstract: A windrower implement includes a merger attachment coupled to a frame rearward of an implement head. The merger attachment includes a conveyor positioned relative to the implement head to receive discharged crop material from the implement head and convey the crop material laterally relative to the central longitudinal axis to form a windrow laterally offset from the central longitudinal axis. A forming shield guides the crop material from the implement head to the merger attachment. A crop inflow sensor detects crop inflow rate through the implement head. A crop outflow sensor detects crop outflow rate on the conveyor of the merger attachment. A controller receives and compares signals from the sensors to detect crop material loss.

Abstract: Techniques of providing continual augmented reality navigation include combining first and second 6DoF poses from, respectively, a localization from a map in a vicinity of a location to an image and from predicted 6DoF poses based on IMU data. The first 6DoF pose is based on a visual positioning system that uses map data from a vicinity of a location combined with an image from the world-facing camera of the AR smartglasses that provides 6DoF pose in world coordinates independent of the IMU. The second 6DoF pose is based on compensated rotational velocity and acceleration measurements derived from IMU intrinsic values.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for coordinating interactions between a user device and a plurality of accessory devices. In one example, a user device receives information identifying one or more accessory devices in communication with the user device. The user device may implement accessory interaction instances for each of the identified accessories. A first accessory interaction instance can be associated with a first accessory among the identified accessories and receive a first audio input from the first accessory corresponding to a user request. The first accessory interaction instance can process a portion of the received audio input and receive a first response from a server computer. The user device may then transmit the first response to the first accessory device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for estimating throughput of a crop material and controlling a belt speed of a cross conveyor. A conveyor can convey, and discharge, cut crop material from a merger device. A first sensor coupled to the conveyor provides information indicative of a weight or mass of the crop material on the conveyor, while another sensor can provide information regarding the speed at which the conveyor is operating. Such speed and weight or mass information can, along with calibration factors, be used to estimate a throughput of the crop material, including a rate at which crop material is being discharged from the merger device. The throughput estimation and information relating to the location and speed of travel of the associated agricultural vehicle, location of another windrow, target location for the discharged crop material, and selected windrow parameters can also be used to control the speed of the conveyor.

Abstract: One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for determining appropriate settings and controlling windrower performance based on the constituents of the target crop. Crop condition and constituents can be identified in the field using sensors in/at the windrower implement, such as constituent sensors and/or imaging sensors. An implement controller can receive sensor data from the sensor array and generate crop condition data indicative of a condition of the target crop. The controller can also generate actuator adjustment data indicative of an adjustment to the roller assembly in the windrower implement to meet a target crop dry-down characteristic. One or more actuators can be used to adjust the roller assembly of the windrower implement based at least on the adjustment data, which can be done automatically or by an operator to the roller systems in the implement.

Abstract: To mitigate undesirable outcomes due to crosstalk in an ambient light sensor reading resulting from light emission from an electronic display, statistics may be gathered to determine and compensate for the crosstalk. For example, the ambient light sensor may detect ambient light levels while the electronic display is temporarily paused to reduce or eliminate crosstalk between the light produced by the electronic display and the ambient light sensor. However, the ambient light sensor may retain charge from a previous light emission, creating back-emission crosstalk. The ratio of back-emission to front-emission (e.g., present light emission) may not be linear, and the degree of nonlinearity may vary with pixel value, color component, display brightness, temperature, and so on. As the ambient light sensor is affected by back-emission, compensation for the nonlinearity between the front-emission and the back-emission may be obtained to estimate the crosstalk induced on the ambient light sensor.
