  • Publication number: 20240422949
    Abstract: A heat dissipation structure of an electronic device is provided. The heat dissipation structure includes a substrate, connectors, clamps, a bracket and a heat sink. The substrate has a first surface and a second surface, and the first surface is provided with a control chip and connector holders. The connectors are disposed on the connector holders of the substrate. The clamps are used to affix the connectors to the substrate. The bracket is affixed to the substrate and has locking holes. The heat sink is affixed to the substrate through the locking holes of the bracket. The clamps are provided with elastic structures to respectively elastically press the upper surfaces of the connectors. The second surface of the substrate is provided with a stiffener to reinforce the strength of the substrate and provide heat conduction.

  • Patent number: 10719953
    Abstract: A system tracks poses of a passive object using fiducial markers on fiducial surfaces of a polygonal structure of the object using image data captured by a camera. The system includes an object tracking controller that generates an estimated pose for a frame of the image data using an approximate pose estimation (APE), and then updates the estimated pose using a dense pose refinement (DPR) of pixels. The APE may include minimizing reprojection error between projected image points of the fiducial markers and observed image points of the fiducial markers in the frame. The DPR may include minimizing appearance error between image pixels of the fiducial markers in the frame and projected model pixels of the fiducial markers determined from the estimated pose and the object model. In some embodiments, an inter-frame corner tracking (ICT) of the fiducial markers may be used to facilitate the APE.

  • Patent number: 9329677
    Abstract: The present invention is related to a social system and process used for bringing virtual social network into real life, which is allowed for gathering and analyzing a social message of at least one interlocutor from virtual social network so as to generate at least one recommended topic, allowing a user to talk with the interlocutor through the utilization of the recommended topic, and then capturing and analyzing at least one speech and behavior and/or physiological response of the interlocutor during talking so as to generate an emotion state of the interlocutor. The user is allowed to determine whether the interlocutor is interested in the recommended topic through the emotion state of interlocutor. Thus, it is possible to bring the social message on virtual network into real life, so as to increase communication topics between persons in real life.

  • Patent number: 6163262
    Abstract: Urine detecting and signalling device for use in a diaper includes two pieces of flat conductive foil and a control unit. The two pieces of the foil are positioned under an absorbent material of the diaper. Each of the foil has an inner end located in the diaper, and an outer end protruding from lateral side of the diaper. The control unit has two end conductors, and a circuit electrically connected to the end conductors. The control unit is detachably fitted on the diaper with the end conductors electrically connected to the outer ends of the foil. The circuit and the foil are completed by urine of the diaper flowing into the absorbent material to activate a load of the circuit to alert the attending person.
