Abstract: Provided is a display device including a display panel, an optical sensor, a timing controller, a scan driver, a data driver, and an image controller. The timing controller controls an image refresh rate of the display panel based on a refresh rate control signal. Thus, the display device provides improved visibility.

Abstract: Methods and devices for enabling controls of an imaging device may include receiving a data stream with a request for at least one control of an imaging device, wherein the at least one control is related to Universal Serial Bus (USB) video. The methods and devices may include identifying a defined functionality of the at least one control and transmitting the data stream to the imaging device to specify the operation of the imaging device based on the defined functionality of the at least one control. The methods and devices may also include generating metadata information from received video frame packets from an imaging device. The methods and devices may include identifying metadata information in the header of a video packet when the header size exceeds the standard header size. The methods and devices may include generating a metadata buffer with the identified metadata information.

Abstract: Technology related to virtualizing sensors is disclosed. In one example of the disclosed technology, a method can be used to allocate resources of a computing system. The method can include enumerating hardware sensors and software modules that are capable of interacting with one another. A topology can be negotiated that is compatible with capabilities of the enumerated hardware sensors and software modules. A first request can be received from a first requestor to configure at least one of the enumerated hardware sensors and software modules. The at least one of the enumerated hardware sensors and software modules can be configured in response to the received first request.

Abstract: Systems and methods providing a photo sequence mode for a camera system are provided. In one embodiment, a camera system comprises a camera, a controller and a camera driver. The camera system may be a part or subsystem of a smart device, a mobile device, a tablet, a laptop, a camera or the like. The photo sequence mode is capable of affecting image capture for a camera system that may have a slower response time that the most advanced digital camera (e.g. one that has a relatively small latency period between the time the user “clicks” the camera and the time the image is captured). In photo sequence mode, the camera system may set up prior to click indication. For example, pre-click or pre-processing image buffers may be allocated, image sensor may be warmed up and pre-click images may be stored in a limited number of pre-processing buffers.

Abstract: Disclosed here is an air conditioner and the control method thereof comprising an outdoor unit having an outdoor heat exchanger for the heat exchanging of the outdoor air and refrigerant; at least one indoor unit corresponding to the outdoor unit and having indoor heat exchanger for the heat exchanging of the room air and refrigerant; an expansion valve installed on the refrigerant pipe connecting the outdoor heat exchanger and the indoor heat exchanger, and expanding the refrigerant; and a control device controlling the opening speed of the expansion valve in accordance with the operation modes of the indoor unit.

Abstract: A resonator of a low frequency oscillation washing machine mounted to an outer periphery of a washtub has an outer periphery shaped so that a distance between the rotational center of the washtub and the outer periphery of the resonator gradually varies between points on the outer periphery of the resonator. At least one discharging hole is provided in a portion of the outer periphery of the resonator which is the farthest from the rotational center of the washtub within the varying portion.

Abstract: A washing net attaching and detaching structure of a fully automatic washing machine with a washing course of dry-marked clothes is shaped as a basket which is attachably and detachably installed within a washtub for being vibrated in the up and down directions in accordance with a reciprocal ascending and descending movement of a driving member to preserve and wash laundry indicated with a dry mark. The washing net has a diameter smaller than an inner circumference of an upper end of the washtub for being easily attached and detached to and from the washtub during the cleaning of dry-marked clothes to provide a convenience to a user and prevent damage to the laundry caused by the laundry being bitten in the lower portion of the washing net, thereby significantly improving the efficiency and reliability of the product.

Abstract: A washing apparatus of a fully automatic washing machine incorporated with a washing course of dry-marked clothes includes a motor shaft installed to a motor mounted to an outer tub for being rotated by the driving of the motor, a driving member coupled with the motor shaft for reciprocally ascending and descending together with the rotational movement of the motor shaft, and a washing net joined to the driving member for being vibrated in up and down directions in accordance with the reciprocal ascending and descending movement of the driving member to preserve and clean the laundry indicated with the dry mark, in which the driving member is installed to the center of a washing blade and inserted with the washing net. Thus, the washing net housing with the laundry thereon is vibrated in up and down directions while the driving member reciprocally ascends and descends along with the driving of the motor.
