  • Publication number: 20230204517
    Abstract: An apparatus to detect optical flatness of an OLED display layer includes a light-emitting assembly, a light-receiving assembly, and an image processor. The light-emitting assembly includes a light source and a first enhancement element. The light source emits reference light through the first enhancement element. The first enhancement element enhances brightness of the reference light and guides the enhanced reference light to a display layer of a display device being detected. The light-receiving assembly receives light reflected by the display layer according to the reference light and generates an image thereof. The image processor receives the image and obtains a result of detection as to surface flatness of the display layer according to the image.

  • Patent number: 11153304
    Abstract: A central authentication service is for authentication of a user operating a computing device requesting access to a service provider. The central authentication service stores a universal group that includes principals from different types of identity providers, with the user of the computing device included as one of the principals. An access token generated by an identity provider associated with the computing device is received by the central authentication service. The central authentication service generates a universal token that includes group membership information for the universal group, and exchanges the access token with the universal token. The universal token is provided to the service provider, with the group membership information on the universal token to allow the service provider to determine if the user of the computing device has permission to access desired services.

  • Patent number: 10791056
    Abstract: A microservice architecture includes service instances collectively configured to cooperate with one another to provide a service, and a service router associated with the service instances and configured to receive a service request from a computing device. The service request includes a service request address. The service router includes a routing policy database with routing policies, with each routing policy including a routing policy address and a routing action. The service router queries the routing policy database with the service request address to find a routing policy having a routing policy address matching the service request address, and executes the routing action specified by the matched routing policy to complete routing of the service.

  • Publication number: 20150051736
    Abstract: A bracket of a robot demonstrator for supporting a tablet computer is disclosed. The bracket includes a bar linkage assembly, a first clamping member pivoted with the bar linkage assembly, and a second clamping member positioned opposite to the first clamping member and pivoted with the bar linkage assembly. A distance between the first clamping member and the second clamping member can be adjusted via adjusting a length of the bar linkage assembly for clamping and supporting the tablet computer.

  • Patent number: 8286253
    Abstract: When a resource-limited device (such as a mobile telephone) joins a network associated with an enterprise, the agent in the device generates digital signatures for all the files in the device and sends them to an enterprise controller. The controller compares them to the global signature database; it filters out the sensitive digital signatures and feeds them back to the agent in the device. The agent receives the feedback of digital signatures and consolidates them into its own local signature database. The agent analyzes each file that is attempting to be output from the device according to the local signature database and DLP policy. If the signature of the file is present in the local database then the action to output file is blocked. If a new file is created on the device, the agent generates and sends its digital signature to the controller for inspection. If the signature is sensitive, this new digital signature will be placed into the local signature database.
