  • Patent number: 11973979
    Abstract: A method of displaying images forming part of a digital reality stream, the method including, for each image to be displayed in one or more encoder processing devices, generating compressed image data by differentially compressing image data indicative of the image in accordance with system operation and the content of the digital reality stream so that different parts of the image are compressed using a different degree of compression, wirelessly transmitting the compressed image data to a display device using a wireless communications link, and, in one or more decoder processing devices associated with the display device, differentially decompressing the compressed image data to thereby generate image data indicative of the image to be displayed.

  • Publication number: 20230288464
    Abstract: Various implementations described herein relate to systems and methods for determining abnormal leakage current of a capacitor by determining a number of recent leakage current values for the capacitor and determining a maximum upper limit, minimum upper limit, maximum lower limit, and minimum lower limit based on leakage current values different from the recent leakage current values. A present upper limit and a present lower limit are determined for the recent leakage current values. Abnormal leakage current is determined in response to determining that the present upper limit being greater than an upper threshold (determined based on the maximum upper limit and the minimum upper limit) or the present lower limit being less than a lower threshold (determined based on the maximum lower limit and the minimum lower limit).

  • Publication number: 20230096376
    Abstract: Unified automation of application development and delivery is provided. An automation pipeline execution coordinator may define a pipeline specification that includes actions to be performed, a triggering event definition and specification for determining execution context. The coordinator may concurrently detect triggering events for multiple pipelines matching the pipeline specification, and responsive to the detecting, determine execution contexts for the pipelines. The coordinator may then execute the multiple pipelines, where execution may proceed independently for pipelines with differing execution contexts. For pipelines sharing an execution context, execution of various actions of the respective pipelines may be coordinated. Execution context may be determined according to the specification for determining execution context, which may include an overridable default specification that determines context by locations of source data related to the triggering event.
