  • Publication number: 20250117131
    Abstract: A method of identifying devolved sequences of handwriting motions is described. The method includes obtaining, via sensors of a wearable device of a computing system, data corresponding to a user attempting to perform a sequence of handwriting motions associated with one or more target inputs while wearing the wearable device. The method includes identifying, based on at least (i) the data corresponding to the user attempting to perform the sequence of handwriting motion and (ii) the one or more target inputs associated with the sequence of handwriting motions, a devolved sequence of handwriting motions to suggest to the user for inputting a respective target input of the one or more target inputs. The devolved sequence of handwriting motions is a different sequence and includes fewer handwriting motions as compared to the sequence of handwriting motions. And the method includes presenting a representation of the devolved sequence of handwriting motions.

  • Patent number: 12020682
    Abstract: A method for Parametric resynthesis (PR) producing an audible signal. A degraded audio signal is received which includes a distorted target audio signal. A prediction model predicts parameters of the audible signal from the degraded signal. The prediction model was trained to minimize a loss function between the target audio signal and the predicted audible signal. The predicted parameters are provided to a waveform generator which synthesizes the audible signal.

  • Publication number: 20210077389
    Abstract: The present invention relates to oral administration of water soluble cannabinoid and terpenoid concentrates on a flavored fibrous carrier. The compositions described herein provide an alternative to smoked cannabis that also avoid the slow action and unpredictable dosing of edible cannabis preparations. Water soluble concentrates of cannabinoids and terpenoids may be produced by derivatization reactions which are known in the art. Such water soluble concentrates enjoy significantly increased absorption by mucosal membranes of the mouth and may therefore be experienced by the consumer more quickly. Water soluble cannabinoid and terpenoid concentrates may be used in combination with each other and in combination with non-derivatized molecules which provides the user with fast and slow acting components in a single delivery vehicle.

    Abstract: An apparatus includes feeds to form analog beams. The feeds are divided into panels. The apparatus includes processing circuitry that divides a target area for communications coverage into regions, including a first region and a second region neighboring each other. The processing circuitry generates, for the first region, a first plurality of analog beams, forming a first cluster. The processing circuitry generates, in the first cluster from the first plurality of analog beams, a first plurality of hybrid beams arranged in a first arrangement in the first cluster. The processing circuitry generates, for the second region, a second plurality of analog beams, forming a second cluster. The processing circuitry generates, in the second cluster from the second plurality of analog beams, a second plurality of hybrid beams arranged in a second arrangement that is adjacent to the first plurality of hybrid beams in the first arrangement.

  • Patent number: 10750503
    Abstract: Information associated with a communication service need of the user is received from a user of a client computer system. A set of communication service requirements that indicate satellite resources required to satisfy the communication service need of the user are computed based on the received information, and transmitted to a server computer system. A first beam plan that satisfies the set of communication service requirements is received from the server computer system. The first beam plan includes information on satellite beams and spectra for allocation to the user when the first beam plan is deployed to provide a communication service to the user that satisfies the communication service need of the user. Instructions are transmitted to the server computer system to deploy the first beam plan. Information is received from the server computer system indicating that the first beam plan is deployed.

  • Patent number: 10498378
    Abstract: A beam plan that defines beams generated by a satellite that satisfy a set of communication service requirements is obtained. Fade condition information that indicates an amount of fade at particular geographic areas for one or more of the beams is obtained. A modification to the beam plan that mitigates the amount of fade at the particular geographic areas for the one or more of the beams is determined. The beam plan is modified based on the determined modification.

  • Patent number: 10220303
    Abstract: A method including displaying a multi-part visual cue that instructs a player to perform a gesture at a specified time, the multi-part visual cue including a first part indicating the gesture that is to be performed at the specified time, and a second part providing an indication of i) the specified time, and ii) a preparation period before the specified time, wherein the distance between the first and the second parts is variable over time, receiving, from a video camera, position information associated with positions of the player over time, determining a first displacement of the player using the position information, determining whether the first displacement of the player matches a first target displacement criterion associated with the multi-part visual cue, when the first displacement matches the first target displacement criterion within a timing window of the specified time, altering a gameplay characteristic of the video game.
