Patent number: 10809469Abstract: A method and a system for active alignment of a light source assembly along three dimensions in an optical bench plane are provided. The light source assembly, preferably a laser diode on its sub-mount, is actively aligned in three dimensions, longitudinal, transection and vertical along the optical bench. The light source assembly is attached on edge of the optical bench, via adhesion processes, such as solder welding. Optical components such as collimator lens, isolator, etc are first passively aligned on the optical bench using alignment marks and epoxy slots provided on the surface of the optical bench. Then, laser diode, mounted on a laser diode sub-mount, is aligned in X and Z direction. Thereafter, the light source assembly is pushed towards the edge of the optical bench and attached with the edge via a solder joint. Also, a compensator can be actively aligned until the optimum light intensity achieved.Type: GrantFiled: April 2, 2019Date of Patent: October 20, 2020Assignee: Cloud Light Technology LimitedInventors: Vincent Wai Hung, Vivian Wei Ma, Wing Keung Mark Mak, Chih Hsun Lin

Publication number: 20200294086Abstract: Device identifiers for devices, such as computing devices, software, and applications, etc., are analyzed to determine whether the device identifiers are associated with each other (e.g., are connected to each other) and how strongly the device identifiers are associated with each other. A stronger connection between two device identifiers may indicate that the device identifiers are connected to the same user, same computing device, or same household. Connections between device identifiers are identified and/or weighted if the device identifiers are associated with the same network or if the device identifiers use the same login information to access content. The identifiers and their connections may form a device graph. Content is targeted to the clients based on the device graph. The device graph may also be used to perform targeting and orchestration of advertising, attribution reporting, analytics, and content optimization across devices in the device graph.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2020Publication date: September 17, 2020Applicant: TAPAD, INC.Inventors: Are Helge Traasdahl, Dag Oeyvind Liodden, Vivian Wei-Hua Chang

Patent number: 10754913Abstract: A system and method is provided to track users across applications and devices, and to distinguish similar or different users among a number of commonly-used devices. Accordingly, systems and methods are provided for analyzing user device information to determine different users among a number of devices. In particular, user's behavior when using the devices is observed, and responsive to that observed behavior, is the determined whether a particular users are distinguishable from other users. For instance, it may be useful to distinguish between users that operate the same devices or exist within a similar network (e.g., a home network, a workplace network, etc.) for various purposes. For instance, it may be useful to distinguish between users for displaying advertising to these users, performing some other operation with respect to a subset of the users.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2015Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: TAPAD, INC.Inventors: Dag Oeyvind Liodden, Vivian Wei-Hua Chang

Publication number: 20190102854Abstract: Operations include aggregating, analyzing, and displaying information about prospects for an educational institution. The system may aggregate prospect information by traversing, for example, lower education databases, social networking websites, or testing organization databases. The system may evaluate prospects which are potential applicants to generate recommendations for contact by a recruiter. Alternatively, or additionally, the system may evaluate prospects which have applied for admission to the institution to generate recommendations for acceptance by an admission officer. The system may recommend a prospect based on the prospect's potential for success in the institution. Success may correspond to metrics such as a likelihood of graduating from the educational institution or a likelihood of obtaining employment subsequent to graduating from the institution. Prospects sharing attributes with previously successful students may be selected for recommendation.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2018Publication date: April 4, 2019Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Egidio Loch Terra, James Thomas McKendree, Vivian Wei Wong, Catherine H.

Publication number: 20190102851Abstract: Operations include identifying students at risk of dropping out or transferring from an academic institution. A student risk analyzer determines a risk score for a student, which may be used to determine whether the student is at-risk. The risk score may be based on a combination of factors. As an example, the risk score may be based on a similarity between (a) attributes of the student and (b) attributes of students that have previously dropped out or transferred to other institutions. A student retention interface displays risk information for students in aggregate form or individual form. The interface may display student information in a student-population view comprising aggregate student information. The interface may display a risk-category view comprising a subset of students. The interface may display an individual-profile view comprising detailed information about a particular student. The interface may allow for drill-down navigation between the views.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 8, 2018Publication date: April 4, 2019Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Egidio Loch Terra, James Thomas McKendree, Catherine H.

Publication number: 20190102747Abstract: An event management system generates and displays an event schedule for an attendee. An initial order of the event schedule is based on (a) events already completed by the attendee, (b) events to be completed by the attendee to meet an event completion target, and (c) a set of ordering rules associated with the set of events to be completed by the attendee. The event management system may include an interface for modifying the event schedule in accordance with the set of ordering rules. The interface may include an initial set of events, in an initial order with respect to a timeline. The event management system may receive user input including a proposed modification to the initial order of the events. The event management system may or may not permit the proposed modification based on the set of ordering rules.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 22, 2018Publication date: April 4, 2019Applicant: Oracle International CorporationInventors: Egidio Loch Terra, James Thomas McKendree, Catherine H.
