  • Patent number: 12164997
    Abstract: A barcode reading application for a general-purpose computing device includes a motion detection module in addition to a decoding module. The motion detection module is configured to process image frames captured by a camera of the computing device for the purpose of performing motion detection. The barcode reading application can be configured so that the decoding module does not process captured image frames until motion has been detected in the camera's field of view. Because fewer processing resources are required for motion detection than for barcode reading, including motion detection capability in the barcode reading application can reduce processor usage in the computing device compared to a scenario where the decoding module is constantly processing captured image frames.

  • Patent number: 12158492
    Abstract: Second Harmonic Generation (SHG) can be used to interrogate a surface such as a surface of a layered semiconductor structure on a semiconductor wafer. In some instances, SHG is used to evaluate an interfacial region such as between metal and oxide. Various parameters such as input polarization, output polarization, and azimuthal angle of incident beam, may affect the SHG signal. Accordingly, such parameters are varied for different types of patterns on the wafer. SHG metrology on various test structures may also assist in characterizing a sample.

  • Patent number: 12146925
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a direct current (DC) transformer error detection apparatus for a pulsating harmonic signal, including a DC and pulsating harmonic current output module and an external detected input module, where the DC and pulsating harmonic current output module outputs a DC and a DC superimposed pulsating harmonic current to an internal sampling circuit and a self-calibrated standard resistor array; and the internal sampling circuit converts the input DC and the input DC superimposed pulsating harmonic current into a voltage signal, and sends the voltage signal to an analog-to-digital (AD) sampling and measurement component through a front-end conditioning circuit and a detected input channel. The DC transformer error detection apparatus can complete self-calibration for measurement of the DC and the pulsating harmonic signal on a test site.

  • Publication number: 20240362099
    Abstract: A baseboard management controller (BMC) may obtain hardware performance data for hardware devices installed in a server that includes the BMC, provide the hardware performance data to a smart network interface controller (Smart NIC) in the server, and receive from the Smart NIC a hardware failure alert that identifies a hardware device predicted to experience a failure based on the hardware performance data. Optionally, the BMC may access a container stored in firmware of the BMC, wherein the container includes a software application such as an artificial intelligence engine trained for hardware failure prediction. The BMC may copy the container to the Smart NIC for running the software application to analyze the hardware performance data and generate a hardware failure alert. The BMC may receive the alert and output a user notification identifying the hardware device that is subject to the alert.
