Abstract: Methods and devices for determining whether a local version of content is stored on an electronic device associated with a user account on a backend system are described herein. In a non-limiting embodiment, the backend system may track and monitor the content stored on the electronic device using the associated user account. If an individual speaks an utterance requesting a particular content item, the backend system may determine, prior to sending the content to the electronic device, whether a local version is stored within the electronic device's memory. If so, the backend system may instruct the electronic device to output the local version, thereby reducing the amount of bandwidth consumed. The backend system may further be capable of predictively generating and then caching certain audio data to the electronic device.

Abstract: An air data probe includes a probe head defining a longitudinal axis between a forward tip and aft base. A port opening is defined in the forward tip. A first conduit is in fluid communication with the port opening to guide fluid flow from the port opening to a first chamber. The first chamber is downstream from the port opening. A second conduit, offset radially and circumferentially from the first conduit, is in fluid communication with the first chamber to guide fluid flow from the first chamber to a second chamber. The second chamber is downstream from the first chamber. The offset between the first and second conduits is configured to prevent particle ingestion from the port opening from entering the second conduit.

Example methods include receiving a request for content from a first device, determining first data representing a first device input type at the first device, determining an intended viewing distance value associated with the first device input type, and determining, using the intended viewing distance value, a first value for the first device, the first value representing a baseline density-independent number of pixels. Methods may include determining first content using the first value, and sending the first content to the first device, wherein the first content is to be rendered at the first device.

For instance, this disclosure describes an example electronic device that includes sensors, such as multiple front-facing cameras to detect orientation and/or location of the electronic device relative to an object and one or more inertial sensors. Users of the device may perform gestures on the device by moving the device in-air and/or by moving their head, face, or eyes relative to the device. In response to these gestures, the device may perform operations.

Abstract: 5G, New Radio (NR), numerology, receiver issues. The numerology scheme here consists in keeping the bandwidth constant but varying the subcarrier spacing (ie different tone spacing B for data and K*B for control channels), and correspondingly the symbol duration. Control symbols have a wider subcarrier separation but smaller symbol duration (In the case of beamforming reference signals, it would enable to train K beams in one symbol time period). Receiver issues: Embodiment 1 uses different Rx chains for data and control channels with different FFT sizes (size differing by factor K). Embodiment 2 uses a common identical FFT size (the one of the data channel) for both control and data: For the control channel, either repeat each control symbol K times prior to FFT and performs down-sampling afterwards and repeat it for each control symbol, or performs joint processing and FFT for all K control symbols jointly by either time domain linear combination or post FFT frequency processing.

Abstract: A laser system includes an integrated fiber laser front-end, configured to generate and output a pre-amplified first pulsed laser beam having predefined beam characteristics corresponding to a user defined pulse shape and a user defined pulse width setting selection of a controller. The first pulsed laser beam is generated from a master oscillator which outputs a CW laser beam to a temporal pulse shaper, which modulates the CW laser beam to output the first pulsed laser beam in response to an electrical pulse from an arbitrary wave generator and a DC bias voltage from an automatic modulator bias control circuitry. The first pulsed laser beam is pre-amplified to an output pulsed laser beam for laser peening or laser bond inspection. A beam detector is used to monitor beam characteristics, and to generate an error signal to be sent back as a feedback signal to the controller for adjustments and corrections.
