  • Patent number: 11984419
    Abstract: Package structures and methods for manufacturing the same are provided. The package structure includes a first bump structure formed over a first substrate. The first bump structure includes a first pillar layer formed over the first substrate and a first barrier layer formed over the first pillar layer. In addition, the first barrier layer has a first protruding portion laterally extending outside a first edge of the first pillar layer. The package structure further includes a second bump structure bonded to the first bump structure through a solder joint. In addition, the second bump structure includes a second pillar layer formed over a second substrate and a second barrier layer formed over the second pillar layer. The first protruding portion of the first barrier layer is spaced apart from the solder joint.

  • Publication number: 20230127218
    Abstract: A method may include receiving, from a camera, image data representing an object in an environment and determining, based on the image data, a vertical position within the image data of a bottom of the object. The method may also include determining an object bottom ratio between the vertical position and a height of the image data and determining, by way of a distance projection model and based on the object bottom ratio, an estimate of a physical distance between the camera and the object. The distance projection model may define, for each respective candidate object bottom ratio of a plurality of candidate object bottom ratios, a mapping between (i) the respective candidate object bottom ratio and (ii) a corresponding physical distance in the environment. The method may additionally include generating an indication of the estimate of the physical distance between the camera and the object.
