  • Publication number: 20250045095
    Abstract: Deep learning accelerator (DLA) hardware performs task preemption. The DLA hardware executes a first task by using a neural network of multiple layers on a given input. In response to a stop command from a DLA driver to stop execution of the first task, the DLA hardware completes a current operation of the neural network and sending an interrupt request (IRQ) to the DLA driver. The DLA hardware then receives a second task from the DLA driver. The DLA hardware executes the second task to completion before resuming the execution of the first task.

  • Patent number: 12073585
    Abstract: A pose estimation apparatus and method for a robotic arm to grasp a target based on monocular infrared thermal imaging vision are provided. The pose estimation apparatus includes a monocular infrared thermal imaging camera, a laser ranging module, an edge computing platform, and an embedded processor. The monocular infrared thermal imaging camera can perform imaging based on a temperature difference between a target and an environment in smoke, combustion, and explosion environments in which a specialized robot works. The laser ranging module can assist in measuring a distance of a to-be-grasped target. An algorithm process is deployed on the edge computing platform. The embedded processor completes motion control of a robotic arm.

  • Patent number: 10377024
    Abstract: A tool assembly for screwdriver with quick-release drill bits includes a bit main body, a sliding sleeve, a spring and a locating bolt. The bit main body has a shaft, and an outer periphery of a front end of the shaft has a plurality of axial cutting surfaces to form a connecting portion with a polygonal cross section. The sliding sleeve comprises a rear end and a front end, and a driving hole with a polygonal cross section axially penetrates through the sliding sleeve. An engaging groove formed at an inner periphery of the driving hole is located adjacent to the rear end of the sliding sleeve. The spring, the locating bolt and the engaging groove are configured to effectively shorten lengths of the connecting portion of the main body and the sliding sleeve thus lowering the manufacturing cost and increasing the competitive advantage in the market.
