Publication number: 20230409102Abstract: A system and method of performing low-power keyword detection is provided. An acoustic signal is obtained comprising speech by an electronic device. The acoustic signal is preprocessed by transforming the acoustic signal to a frequency domain representation. The frequency domain representation is divided into a plurality of frequency bands. The plurality of frequency bands is provided to a neural network. At least one of a plurality of keywords or absence of any of the plurality of keywords is predicted. The acoustic signal can then be provided for additional processing by a higher power processing core.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 5, 2023Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Sam MYER, Vikrant TOMAR

Patent number: 10377131Abstract: A method of multi-color printing in a single pass using a fixed pagewide array of monochrome inkjet printheads. The printheads are aligned with each other in a media feed direction and the method includes the steps of: feeding print media along the media feed direction past a first printhead positioned furthest upstream in the array, a third printhead downstream of the first printhead and a second printhead positioned furthest downstream in the array; printing a yellow ink onto the print media using the first printhead; printing a black ink onto the print media using the third printhead; and printing a cyan or magenta ink onto the print media using the second printhead.Type: GrantFiled: January 24, 2018Date of Patent: August 13, 2019Assignee: Memjet Technology LimitedInventors: Angus North, Philip Palma, Brian Brown, Duncan McRae, Jognandan Prashar, Mile Jurevic, Sam Mallinson, Geordie McBain, Chia-An Lin, Sam Myers, Jeffrey Tsang, Benjamin Powell

Publication number: 20190241880Abstract: The present invention provides fusion proteins, polynucleotides, kits, as well as TALE- or CRISPR-Cas based systems and methods. The present invention relies on proximity-dependent biotinylation, which allows site-directed protein or DNA purification and identification. The present invention provides tools for delineating the genetics of disease mechanism and for the identification of therapeutic targets and markers.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 13, 2017Publication date: August 8, 2019Inventors: Steven A. Carr, Jason Wright, Sam Myers

Patent number: 9944065Abstract: A multi-color printer has an array of monochrome fixed inkjet printheads aligned in a media feed direction. The printer includes: a first printhead positioned furthest upstream relative to the media feed direction; a second printhead positioned furthest downstream relative to the media feed direction; and a third printhead positioned between the first and second printheads. Each printhead is supplied with a respective ink from a multi-color ink set, the first printhead being supplied with a lowest luminance ink of the ink set and the third printhead being supplied with a highest luminance ink of the ink set.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2014Date of Patent: April 17, 2018Assignee: MEMJET TECHNOLOGY LIMITEDInventors: Angus North, Philip Palma, Brian Brown, Duncan McRae, Jognandan Prashar, Mile Jurevic, Sam Mallinson, Geordie McBain, Chia-An Lin, Sam Myers, Jeff Tsang, Benjamin Powell

Patent number: 9469098Abstract: A method of printing from a fixed inkjet printhead having a plurality of ink planes. The method includes the steps of: feeding a print medium past the printhead in a media feed direction, the media feed direction defining relative upstream and downstream sides of the printhead; printing an image onto the print medium, the image being defined by image data; and printing a keep-wet pattern onto the print medium from each ink plane of the printhead, the keep-wet pattern being defined by a plurality of dots printed at a frequency sufficient to maintain hydration of each nozzle in the printhead. A first keep-wet pattern from a first ink plane is printed at a higher frequency than a second keep-wet pattern from a second ink plane, the first ink plane being furthest upstream in the printhead.Type: GrantFiled: July 10, 2014Date of Patent: October 18, 2016Assignee: Memjet Technology LimitedInventors: Angus North, Philip Palma, Brian Brown, Duncan McRae, Jognandan Prashar, Mile Jurevic, Sam Mallinson, Geordie McBain, Chia-An Lin, Sam Myers, Jeffrey Tsang, Benjamin Powell
