  • Publication number: 20240096784
    Abstract: Some embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an integrated chip including an extended via that spans a combined height of a wire and a via and that has a smaller footprint than the wire. The extended via may replace a wire and an adjoining via at locations where the sizing and the spacing of the wire are reaching lower limits. Because the extended via has a smaller footprint than the wire, replacing the wire and the adjoining via with the extended via relaxes spacing and allows the size of the pixel to be further reduced. The extended via finds application for capacitor arrays used for pixel circuits.

  • Publication number: 20220383641
    Abstract: A safety system for a vehicle includes a camera and a central control device. The camera is configured to obtain a first image. When the central control device determines that the vehicle is in a straight-moving state, the central control device determines whether a target object is in a first range on a side of the vehicle according to the first image. When the central control device determines that the vehicle is in a turning state, the central control device determines whether the target object is in a second range on the side of the vehicle according to the first image, wherein the second range is larger than the first range.

  • Patent number: 11450261
    Abstract: An image display system increases the data volume of a control signal in a frame of analog image so as to process an analog image in real time. A method for increasing the data volume of the control signal, which is used in the image display system, includes increasing the time for transmitting the control signal, changing an encoding method of the control signal to increase a data volume which is transmitted in unit time or outputting an analog image signal and the control signal at the same time. Therefore, the data volume of the control signal in a frame of image can be increased.

  • Publication number: 20160068945
    Abstract: A method for beautifying a surface of a reinforced glass contains steps of: forming a shielding layer on a non-pattern area of a surface of a body of a reinforced glass in an acid resistant ink printing manner or an ink developing manner; plating a dielectric layer on the surface of the body in a vacuum magnetron sputtering manner; plating a metallic isolation layer; plating a metallic reflecting layer, which is colorful or transparent, on a pattern area; plating the metallic isolation layer; plating a protective layer; removing the shielding layer by ways of detergent to form the pattern area on the metallic reflecting layer on the surface of the body. Thereby, the metallic reflecting layer in the pattern area does not oxidize, discolor, and deteriorate in reinforcing process of the body at high temperature, and the pattern area of the metallic reflecting layer does not fade.

  • Publication number: 20080212679
    Abstract: A memory-efficient motion estimation technique for high-resolution video coding is proposed. The main objective is to reduce the external memory access, especially for limited local memory resource. The reduction of memory access can successfully save the notorious power consumption. The key to reduce the memory access is based on center-biased algorithm in that the center-biased algorithm performs the motion vector searching with the minimum search data. While considering the data reusability, the proposed dual-search-windowing approaches use a secondary windowing as an option per searching necessity, by which the loading of search windows can be alleviated and hence reduce the required external memory bandwidth, without significant quality degradation.
