Patent number: 11928756Abstract: To present augmented reality features without localizing a user, a client device receives a request for presenting augmented reality features in a camera view of a computing device of the user. Prior to localizing the user, the client device obtains sensor data indicative of a pose of the user, and determines the pose of the user based on the sensor data with a confidence level that exceeds a confidence threshold which indicates a low accuracy state. Then the client device presents one or more augmented reality features in the camera view in accordance with the determined pose of the user while in the low accuracy state.Type: GrantFiled: September 22, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Mohamed Suhail Mohamed Yousuf Sait, Andre Le, Juan David Hincapie, Mirko Ranieri, Marek Gorecki, Wenli Zhao, Tony Shih, Bo Zhang, Alan Sheridan, Matt Seegmiller

Patent number: 10761137Abstract: Embodiments herein describe techniques for binning integrated circuits (ICs) using an adaptive binning system that can re-bin the ICs in response to receiving a new or updated test specification. Unlike static binning systems, in one embodiment, the binning system receives measured test data from a testing system. Put differently, instead of a testing apparatus simply indicating whether an IC does (or does not) satisfy the criteria in the test specification, the testing apparatus provides measured test data to the binning system. The binning apparatus can then store the received test data. As such, if a new test specification is received or generated, the binning system can use the already saved test data to re-bin the ICs using the criteria in the new test specification without having to re-test the ICs. In this manner, the binning system can re-categorize the ICs as customer needs or customer demand changes.Type: GrantFiled: January 3, 2018Date of Patent: September 1, 2020Assignee: XILINX, INC.Inventors: Lee N. Chung, Randy J. Simmons, Arnold Louie, Dahshi Shen, Felino E. Pagaduan, Tony Le

Publication number: 20200269013Abstract: A tubular sheath for enclosing an expandable balloon attached to the distal portion of a catheter encloses and protects the expandable balloon. The tubular sheath is configured to be slidable and removable from the catheter. The tubular sheath may include a longitudinal splitting element that is removable as a result of a force applied to the longitudinal splitting element. The longitudinal splitting element is configured to split the wall of the tubular sheath in response to the force. Alternatively, the tubular sheath may include a gripping portion that has relatively poor cohesive strength to adjacent portions of the tubular sheath. The tubular sheath is configured to be removable in response to a force applied to the gripping portion.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 13, 2020Publication date: August 27, 2020Inventors: John Wilson Traxler, Michael Baldwin, Joseph Duffy, John Kantor, Tony Le, Asim Malik, Susan Peterson, Emily Schoenhoff, Eric Hallberg, Steven Holt, Erik Svensson, Ronan Cleary, Sameer Singh, Steven Holmgren, Janet Komatsu, Traci Colgan, Gregory Hopper, Marcel Fuhrer
