  • Patent number: 10482903
    Abstract: A method for selectively interacting with multi-devices is provided. The method includes the following steps: receiving identical voice information transmitted by a plurality of terminal devices respectively; performing voice recognition on the received voice information; calculating energy of a wake-up word in respective voice information; and comparing the energy of one wake-up word with another, and transmitting feedback information to the terminal devices according to an energy comparison result and a voice recognition result. By calculating the energy of the wake-up word in respective voice information transmitted by respective devices, the distances between respective device and a user can be distinguished. A unique response can be ensured by determining that the device closest to the user responds to the user's request, thus ensuring the user experience.

  • Publication number: 20190151946
    Abstract: A laser 3D printing method for metal workpiece and system thereof, and the method comprises the following steps: step one, performing 3D sintering to metal powder by using a continuous laser or a pulse laser; step two, performing laser-induced shock wave impact to a 3D sintered component by using a short pulse width laser; step three, polishing the 3D sintered component obtained after the step two by using a continuous laser or a pulse laser. When the workpiece to be printed comprises powders of various materials, select a laser wavelength, pulse energy and pulse width according to an optical characteristic of the powder of each material, use the three steps to realize a printing of functionally graded materials. Compared with the prior art, the laser 3D printing system for metal workpiece could improve the occurrence of holes, over-burning and spheroidization phenomenon, thereby increasing the density of the metal workpiece.

  • Publication number: 20190155023
    Abstract: A method for correcting wavefront distribution of an optical system by laser, mainly utilizes the action of the laser to form a desired refractive index spatial distribution inside an optical component, thereby correcting a wavefront distortion existing in an optical system, or to obtain an optical system having a desired wavefront distribution. The optical component processed by the method could effectively correct the wavefront distortion existing in the optical system, to meet specific use requirements, and the optical component could be used in various optical systems. At the same time, the method has the characteristics of fast speed, computer-aided one-step forming and no subsequent processing, and is a new method for optical system design and wavefront distortion correction.

  • Patent number: 5754757
    Abstract: This invention relates to a computing system, a fail-silent node for use in a computing system and a method of organizing information so that a number of microprocessors in a computing node, which are arranged to receive messages from other components in the computing system and to process the received messages so as to transmit the results of this processing to other components in the system, compare the results of their processing and send nothing out from the node unless either all the microprocessors in the mode produce identical results or more than half of the microprocessors in the node produce identical results. This is achieved by manipulating the order in which messages are processed by each microprocessor so as to ensure that each microprocessor in the node receives the same messages, orders these same messages so that messages within each microprocessor are processed in the same order, thus ensuring, if all the microprocessors are functioning correctly, that the same results are produced.
