Patent number: 11720060Abstract: A single-shot Fresnel non-coherent correlation digital holographic device based on a polarization-oriented planar lens, comprising: A polarization-oriented planar lens (1) for wavefront modulation and beam splitting, a focusing element (2), a half-wave plate (3) with a small hole and a polarization imaging camera (4). Incident light passes through the polarization-oriented planar lens (1) and the focusing element (2) and is divided into two beams with different polarizations, that is, focused and parallel or focused and divergent beams, wherein the focused beam passes through the small hole of the half-wave plate (3), the parallel or divergent beam passes through the half-wave plate (3), so as to make the polarization of the two beams consistent behind pass through the half-wave plate (3).Type: GrantFiled: February 9, 2021Date of Patent: August 8, 2023Assignee: Shanghai Institute of Optics And Fine Mechanics, Chinese Academy of SciencesInventors: Jun Liu, Dong Liang, Qiu Zhang

Publication number: 20210038778Abstract: A vacuum suction acne remover includes a main control module, a vacuum suction module including a suction head and a vacuum pump connected to the suction head and controllable by the main control module to generate a suction force at the suction head for sucking out acne from the skin, and a camera module having an imaging lens controllable by the main control module to capture the image of the area being sucked by the vacuum suction module. During the suction process of the vacuum suction module, the camera module can observe the image of the suction area, and the suction of the vacuum suction module can be adjusted according to the depth of the acne displayed on the screen to avoid blind acne removing action and incomplete cleaning and to prevent the skin from being damaged due to excessive suction, thereby improving the efficiency and cleanliness of acne removal.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 5, 2019Publication date: February 11, 2021Inventors: Mike CHEN, Yan-Qiu ZHANG

Publication number: 20210038777Abstract: A visual beauty instrument includes a control module, an image acquisition module, a suction control module, a fill light module, a suction nozzle assembly and a mobile terminal. The image acquisition module collects the image signal of the suction area and feeds back the image signal to the control module. The control module analyzes the image signal and controls the suction control module and the fill light module. The suction control module sucks up the acne and blackheads on the skin surface by the suction nozzle assembly. The fill light module improves the recognition of acne and blackheads. The invention can observe the distribution and size of blackheads and acne in the inner layer of the skin and compare the number of blackheads and acne before and after suction, ensuring thorough cleaning, improving removal efficiency and preventing skin damage caused by excessive suction.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 10, 2019Publication date: February 11, 2021Inventors: Mike CHEN, Yan-Qiu ZHANG

Patent number: 10462188Abstract: A computer network security system includes a central controller in communication with software-based endpoint agents operating on individual host computers. The endpoint agents monitor new connection requests to and from their respective hosts, comparing the connections to cached rules obtained from the controller, and holding new connections while escalating requests for applicable rules and/or directives to the controller in real-time when no applicable rules are available in their caches. The endpoint agents can be configured to present a pop-up dialog requesting enhanced authentication credentials from a user on a host in response to a connection request from a restricted network-based application. The pop-up dialog enables enhanced or two-factor authentication functionality to be overlaid on any networked application regardless of the application's inherent authentication capability.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2018Date of Patent: October 29, 2019Assignee: OPAQ Networks, Inc.Inventors: John Ondy Terrill, Thomas James Cross, Scott Michael Davis, Qiu Zhang
