  • Publication number: 20250086921
    Abstract: A system, apparatus, method and computer program product are provided for determining a mobile device integrity status. Images of a mobile device captured by the mobile device and using a reflective surface are processed with various trained models, such as neural networks, to verify authenticity, detect damage, and to detect occlusions. A mask is generated to enable identification of concave occlusions or blocked corners of an object, such as a mobile device, in an image. Images of the front and/or rear of a mobile device are processed to determine the mobile device integrity status such as verified, not verified, or inconclusive. A user is prompted to remove covers, remove occlusions, and/or move the mobile device closer to the reflective surface. A real-time response relating to the mobile device integrity status may be provided. The trained models may be trained to improve the accuracy of the mobile device integrity status.

  • Patent number: 11804775
    Abstract: In some examples, a device includes a selector circuit configured to deliver power to a first driver circuit, where the first driver circuit is configured to activate and deactivate a first switch of a postregulator. The device also includes a startup regulator and a controller configured to cause the selector circuit to deliver power from the startup regulator to the first driver circuit. The controller is also configured to determine that a boost regulator is operational after delivering power from the startup regulator to the first driver circuit. The controller is further configured to cause the selector circuit to deliver power from the boost regulator to the first driver circuit in response to determining that the boost regulator is operational.

  • Publication number: 20230247096
    Abstract: Various embodiments of the disclosure provide apparatuses, methods, and computer program products for network-centric augmented reality processing. Various embodiments provide advantages in network analytics, and additional advantages in positioning devices and/or objects in a premises to improve network quality at position(s) in the premises. Example embodiments process received camera data to map positions in an augmented reality environment to a networked device set, a network access device set, an object set, and/or a corner set indicted in the camera data. Additionally or alternatively, some embodiments generate an environment plot based on the processed camera data. Some embodiments additionally or alternatively enable initiation of a session for servicing of one or more devices in the premises, and/or providing device protection program information associated with the one or more devices.
