Publication number: 20240086495Abstract: First images that are screenshots from a first version of a software component are obtained. Second images that are screenshots from a second version are obtained. A collection of image deviations that includes pair-wise image deviations between pairs of images are identified. A pair of images includes a first image from the first images and a corresponding second image from the second images. An image deviation indicates a portion of the second image identified as differing from a spatially corresponding portion of the first image. The image deviations are grouped into deviation groups. At least some of the second images are associated with at least some of the deviation groups. A subset of the second images corresponding to a deviation group is output responsive to a selection of an indication of the deviation group.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 12, 2022Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Divesh Gandhi, Atul Mangat, Vidya Priyadarshini Narayanan, Shubham Jaiswal, Anand Kumar Ganesh, Saurabh Kakran

Publication number: 20230239602Abstract: An electronic device such as a voice-controlled speaker device may have a housing characterized by a vertical longitudinal axis. A flexible substrate such as a flexible mesh substrate with component support regions coupled by flexible segments may be wrapped around the housing and the vertical axis. The housing may have surface regions with compound curvature. The flexible substrate may conform to the regions with compound curvature. A fabric spacer layer may be interposed between the flexible substrate and the housing. Electrical components such as input-output devices may be mounted to the component support regions. A display may be formed from an array of light-emitting devices that are mounted on respective component support regions. Light from the light-emitting devices may pass through the fabric spacer layer toward the housing and back out away from the housing. An outer fabric layer may cover the mesh.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 4, 2023Publication date: July 27, 2023Inventors: Daniel D. Sunshine, Kathryn P. Crews, Tirshathah A. Hunter, Kathleen A. Bergeron, Mingjing Ha, Shubham A. Gandhi, Paul S. Drzaic, Yung-Yu Hsu, David W. Lum

Patent number: 11450297Abstract: An electronic device such as a head-mounted device may have a display that is viewable by a user from eye boxes. The electronic device may have a gaze tracking system that monitors a user's eyes in the eye boxes to gather gaze direction information. The display may have a central portion and a peripheral portion. The peripheral portion may have a lower resolution than the central portion and may be used in displaying content that is viewable in a user's peripheral vision. During operation, control circuitry in the electronic device may adjust peripheral content on the peripheral portion to correct for parallax-induced mismatch between the peripheral content and central content on the central portion of the display. The control circuitry may also depower peripheral pixels that are determined to be unviewable based on the gaze direction. Diffusers may be used to hide seams between the central and peripheral display portions.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2019Date of Patent: September 20, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: William W. Sprague, David W. Lum, Pretesh A. Mascarenhas, Shubham A. Gandhi, Tyler B. Milhem

Patent number: 11442503Abstract: An electronic device such as a wearable electronic device may have a band. The band may form a stand-alone device or a strap for a wristwatch unit or other device. Electrical components may be mounted on flexible printed circuit substrates. A substrate may be encapsulated by elastomeric polymer material or other material forming the band. The elastomeric polymer material may form cavities that receive the electrical components. Components such as light-emitting diodes may be mounted to the flexible printed circuit substrates so that the light-emitting diodes are located in the cavities. Reflective sidewalls in the cavities may reflect light from the light-emitting diodes outwardly through a thinned portion of the band. Light-diffusing material in the cavities may be formed from clear polymer with light-scattering particles.Type: GrantFiled: May 17, 2018Date of Patent: September 13, 2022Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Yung-Yu Hsu, Shubham A. Gandhi, Mingjing Ha, Paul S. Drzaic, Chang-Chia Huang, Han-Chieh Chang, Bryce T. Bradford, David W. Lum, Bhaskar Banerjee, Adam Adjiwibawa, David A. Doyle, Hong Luo, Michael J. Brown

Patent number: 11003289Abstract: Flexible touch sensor panels can be implemented on a strap of a wearable device. A flexible touch sensor panel can provide an additional touch sensitive surface for a user to activate functions on the wearable device without covering a touch screen of the wearable device. In some examples, the flexible touch sensor panels can include electrode connectors configured to electrically couple touch electrodes of the flexible touch sensor panel. In some examples, the electrode connectors can have a serpentine routing pattern configured to allow the touch electrodes to move closer together or farther apart while maintaining electrical coupling between the touch electrodes. In some examples, the touch electrodes can have gaps configured to allow light to pass through the gaps. In some examples, an LED panel can be formed below or one or more waveguide layers can be formed above the flexible touch sensor panel.Type: GrantFiled: September 6, 2019Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Yung-Yu Hsu, Mingjing Ha, Paul S.
