  • Patent number: 9746675
    Abstract: A head-mounted display device is disclosed, which includes an at least partially see-through display, a processor configured to detect a physical feature, generate an alignment hologram based on the physical feature, determine a view of the alignment hologram based on a default view matrix for a first eye of a user of the head-mounted display device, display the view of the alignment hologram to the first eye of the user on the at least partially see-through display, output an instruction to the user to enter an adjustment input to visually align the alignment hologram with the physical feature, determine a calibrated view matrix based on the default view matrix and the adjustment input, and adjust a view matrix setting of the head-mounted display device based on the calibrated view matrix.

  • Patent number: 9691116
    Abstract: Systems and methods using intelligent barcodes for processing mail, packages, or other items in transport are provided. Systems and methods allowing end-to-end visibility of a mail stream by uniquely identifying and tracking mail pieces are also provided. Systems and methods include the use of standardized intelligent barcodes on mail pieces, a seamless process for mail acceptance, continuous mail piece tracking, and feedback on mail quality in real time. In one embodiment, systems and methods using intelligent barcodes allow a mailing service to provide enhanced acceptance, sorting, tracking, address correction, forwarding, and delivery services. In another embodiment, systems and methods using intelligent barcodes allow a mailing service to identify a mail piece as undeliverable-as-addressed (UAA) and determine a final disposition for the mail piece.

  • Patent number: 9658947
    Abstract: Ranking of fault-test pairs is performed using first and second multitudes of waveform statistics. The first multitude of waveform statistics includes first value-change information regarding variations in logics HIGH and LOW for each bit of each reference output resulting from a test run of the design code. The second multitude of waveform statistics includes second value-change information regarding variations in logics HIGH and LOW for each bit of each faulty output resulting from a test run of the design code injected with a fault. Relative differences between the first and second multitudes of waveform statistics for each bit of each faulty output with respect to the corresponding reference output are determined. A waveform difference based on the relative differences for each signal of each faulty output is determined. A ranking result of fault-test pairs is determined according to the waveform differences of the faulty outputs.

  • Patent number: 9658686
    Abstract: Various embodiments relating to using motion based view matrix tuning to calibrate a head-mounted display device are disclosed. In one embodiment, the holograms are rendered with different view matrices, each view matrix corresponding to a different inter-pupillary distance. Upon selection by the user of the most stable hologram, the head-mounted display device can be calibrated to the inter-pupillary distance corresponding to the selected most stable hologram.

  • Publication number: 20160262569
    Abstract: A grilling insert is adapted for use in a barbecue grill having a recessed cooking chamber. The grilling insert comprises a double-wall thermal barrier and a radiant heat chamber. The double-wall thermal barrier is adapted for extending across the recessed cooking chamber of the barbecue grill, and for dividing the cooking chamber into direct-heating and indirect-heating cooking sections. The radiant heat chamber is formed adjacent the double-wall thermal barrier, and is designed for holding loose combustible material within the direct-heating cooking section of the barbecue grill. The cooking temperature in the direct-heating cooking section is relatively high, and is reduced in the indirect-heating cooking section by the double-wall thermal barrier.
