  • Publication number: 20240135514
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media that modify digital images via multi-layered scene completion techniques facilitated by artificial intelligence. For instance, in some embodiments, the disclosed systems receive a digital image portraying a first object and a second object against a background, where the first object occludes a portion of the second object. Additionally, the disclosed systems pre-process the digital image to generate a first content fill for the portion of the second object occluded by the first object and a second content fill for a portion of the background occluded by the second object. After pre-processing, the disclosed systems detect one or more user interactions to move or delete the first object from the digital image. The disclosed systems further modify the digital image by moving or deleting the first object and exposing the first content fill for the portion of the second object.

  • Publication number: 20240136760
    Abstract: A waterproof electrical connector includes a connector body and a waterproof cap. The connector body includes a mating island surrounded by a ring groove. The mating island defines a mating face and plural passageways. The passageways receive conductive terminals and penetrate through the mating face. A soft cushion is set inside the waterproof cap. The connector body includes a collar portion. The collar portion is higher than the mating face and forms an entrance cavity around the ring groove. When the cap covers the connector body, the soft cushion penetrates into the entrance cavity to press and seal the mating face.
