Publication number: 20250341454Abstract: The present disclosure provides solid-state optical test targets useful for evaluating the performance of an optical imaging system. The solid-state optical test targets comprise at least a first substrate made from a flat transparent material. In some embodiments, the solid-state optical test targets further comprise an opaque coating that forms a micropattern. The first substrate is positioned in direct contact with the micropattern. The optical test targets described herein lack a flow cell and lack a liquid, and are therefore solid-state apparatus. Since the solid-state optical test targets lack a flow cell and liquid, the thickness of the first substrate is adjusted to simulate the presence of a hypothetic flow cell which could be located for example below the first substrate. The adjusted thickness of the first substrate can simulate the collective effects of the first substrate and the hypothetical flow cell containing a fluid/liquid.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 15, 2025Publication date: November 6, 2025Inventors: Hui Zhen MAH, Sanchari SAHA, Michael PREVITE, Xiyi CHEN, Derek FULLER, Chiting CHANG, Cassandra NIMAN, Steve CHEN, Arash GHORBANI, Minghao GUO, Chaoyi JIN, Rui MA, Jordan NEYSMITH, Geoffrey PILAND, Daisong RONG, Bowen SCHWOERER, Russell HUDYMA

Patent number: 11562742Abstract: Some implementations are directed to selective invocation of a particular third-party (3P) agent by an automated assistant to achieve an intended action determined by the automated assistant during a dynamic dialog between the automated assistant and a user. In some of those implementations, the particular 3P agent is invoked with value(s) for parameter(s) that are determined during the dynamic dialog; and/or the particular 3P agent is selected, from a plurality of candidate 3P agents, for invocation based on the determined value(s) for the parameter(s) and/or based on other criteria. In some of those implementations, the automated assistant invokes the particular 3P agent by transmitting, to the particular 3P agent, a 3P invocation request that includes the determined value(s) for the parameter(s).Type: GrantFiled: January 15, 2021Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Ulas Kirazci, Bo Wang, Steve Chen, Sunil Vemuri, Barnaby James, Valerie Nygaard
