  • Publication number: 20190138485
    Abstract: An example computing device includes a module interface to communicate with a peripheral device. The computing device also includes a hot swapping prediction circuit to detect a physical movement of the computing device and to generate a hot swapping prediction signal based on the detected physical movement. The computing device further includes a processor coupled to the hot swapping circuit. The processor is to, in response to detecting the hot swapping prediction signal from the hot swapping circuit, change a parameter of a peripheral device detection operation to be executed by an operating system of the computing device.

  • Publication number: 20190138486
    Abstract: An example peripheral device includes a module interface to receive power and data communication from a computing device. The peripheral device also includes an attachment tab to affix the peripheral device to a lower side of the computing device. The peripheral device further includes a latch to control an engagement of the attachment tab with the computing device. The peripheral device further includes a sensing circuit to detect a change in position of the latch. The peripheral device further includes a controller to, in response to detecting the latch moving from a locked position to an unlocked position, indicate a hot unplug prediction to the computing device via the module interface.

  • Publication number: 20190121772
    Abstract: Example implementations relate to transmitting signals via USB ports. For example, a system according to the present disclosure, may include a host module including a plurality of USB ports, a first expansion module, and a second expansion module. The first expansion module may include a first USB port and a second USB port. The first expansion module may receive a signal from the host module at a first USB port, and direct the signal to a second USB port. The first expansion module may transmit the signal to a second expansion module via a second USB port.

  • Patent number: 10250798
    Abstract: Examples of an apparatus, method, and instructions included on a machine-readable non-transitory storage medium are disclosed herein. In an example of the method, a first state is provided to enable a camera to record an image, a second state is provided to disable the camera, and a third state is provided to permit the camera to be enabled and disabled. Also in this example of the method, a button is actuated in the third state to an on position to enable the camera to record an image or an off position to disable the camera. Additionally in this example of the method, a signal is generated via an input device in the on position of the button to enable the camera to record an image or disable the camera.

  • Publication number: 20190094843
    Abstract: Based on at least one manufacturing process characteristics associated with a manufacturing process, a prediction time at which to execute a selected machine learning model selected from multiple trained machine learning models is determined, and at the prediction time, the selected machine learning model is executed. Executing the selected machine learning model predicts a control set point for future values of state variables of the manufacturing process, for controlling the manufacturing process. Based on at least one of the manufacturing process characteristics, a learning time at which to train a machine learning model is determined, and at the learning time, the machine learning model is trained based on historical process data associated with the manufacturing process.

  • Patent number: 9948894
    Abstract: A device may include videoconferencing circuitry. The videoconferencing circuitry may access video data of a user captured through a camera. The videoconferencing circuitry may further determine, for the captured video data, that a user portion of the user is not in a field of view of the camera, such as the hand of the user. The videoconferencing circuitry may augment the video data to include a virtual representation of the user portion of the user and transmit the video data augmented with the virtual representation of the user portion to a remote videoconferencing device.

  • Patent number: 8296330
    Abstract: The hierarchical approach may start at the bottom of the hierarchy. As it moves up the hierarchy, knowledge from children and cousins is used to classify items at the parent. In addition, knowledge of improper classifications at a low level are raised to a higher level to create new rules to better identify mistaken classifications at a higher level. Once the top of the hierarchy is reached, a top down approach is used to further refine the classification of items.
