Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for real-time deployment of machine learning systems. One of the operations is performed by the system receiving video data from a video image capturing device. The received video data is converted into multiple video frames. These video frames are encoded into a particular color space format. The system renders a first display output depicting imagery from the multiple encoded video frames. The system performs an inference on the video frames using a machine learning network to determine the occurrence of one or more objects in the video frames. The system renders a second display output depicting graphical information corresponding to the determined one or more objects from the multiple encoded video frames. The system then generates a composite display output including the imagery of the first display output overlaid with the graphical information of the second display output.

Abstract: A mesh receiver, computer readable storage medium and method for a very small aperture terminal (VSAT) performing communications in a satellite-based network. The mesh receiver includes a receiver that receives a plurality of TDMA mesh carriers simultaneously in the network in plural channels. The mesh carriers have a transmitted frequency, transmitted gain, and transmitted timing that is unknown to the mesh receiver. The mesh receiver also includes circuitry configured to blindly derive gain, frequency, and timing values from the received mesh carriers, and a demodulator that demodulates the received TDMA mesh carriers and generates demodulated bursts for packets of the communications based on the blindly derived gain, frequency, and timing values.

Abstract: A position detector apparatus includes a detector part, wiring, a resin part, a resin body, a terminal, and a lead frame. The resin part has a thickness at a wiring side portion of the detector part that is greater than a thickness on a side opposite to the wiring side portion. Therefore, when injection-molding the resin part, due to a thickness change of the resin part, the detector part is pressed against a metal mold and a position of the detecting part is fixed. Further, the resin body has a thick-resin portion and a thin-resin portion. The thickness of the thin-resin portion allows a predetermined amount of dislocation of the detector part. Therefore, if the detector part is exposed, water is prevented from intruding the lead frame and the terminal.
