Publication number: 20240015439Abstract: Examples described herein relate to transitioning a playback session between portable playback devices such as “smart” headphones, earbuds, and handheld speakers with playback devices of a zone-based media playback system. Exemplary techniques facilitate continuity of playback when transitioning between locations (e.g., from at home to on-the-go or vice versa) or between listening paradigms (e.g., personal or out-loud playback of audio content). An example implementation includes detecting a swap trigger, determining the source playback device(s) and target playback device(s), and performing a playback session swap between the source playback device(s) and target playback device(s).Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2023Publication date: January 11, 2024Inventors: Dayn Wilberding, Youjin Nam, Tadeo T. Toulis, Jonathan Cole Harris, Patrick Devine, Nicholas A.J.

Publication number: 20210399153Abstract: Semiconductor structures including optically-transparent metamorphic buffer regions, devices employing such structures, and methods of fabrication. The optically-transparent metamorphic buffer is grown to provide a lattice constant transition between a smaller lattice constant and a larger lattice constant (or vice-versa), allowing materials with two different lattice constants to be monolithically integrated. Such buffer layer may include at least two elements from group V of the periodic table. The optically-transparent metamorphic buffer region may include digital-alloy superlattice structure (s) to confine material defects to the metamorphic buffer layer, and improve electrical properties of the metamorphic buffer layer, thereby improving the electronic properties of electronic devices such as optoelectronic devices and photovoltaic cells. Photonic devices such as solar cells and optical detectors containing such semiconductor structures.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 1, 2019Publication date: December 23, 2021Inventors: Philip DOWD, Jacob THORP, Michael SHELDON, Ferran SUAREZ

Patent number: 9836599Abstract: An unstructured event is detected and an unstructured event record is generated for the detected event. Case identifier (ID) conflation is performed to estimate a case ID that corresponds to the detected event, and event type identification is performed to estimate a type of the unstructured event. A business process model is applied to the unstructured event record, to identify a process that the unstructured event is related to. A user experience is generated based upon the event type, the case ID, and the corresponding process identified for the detected event.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2015Date of Patent: December 5, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Graham Andrew Michael Sheldon, Sedat Gokalp
