Abstract: In some implementations, a system may receive interaction data indicating an interaction time and amount. The system may categorize the interaction in a category of a plurality of categories. For each category, the system may compare a total category amount with an average category amount. The system may determine, for each category, a proportion of the total category amount relative to a total account amount. The system may transmit, to a user device, user interface data associated with a ring-shaped user interface element that includes a plurality of segments corresponding to the plurality of categories. The user interface data indicates a width of a particular segment that is based on the comparison of the total category amount for a corresponding category with the average category amount, and an arc length that is based on the proportion of the total category amount for the corresponding category to the total account amount.

Abstract: Devices and methods are provided for performing color correction of focal dispersion in high-harmonic lenses. The device comprises a multi-order diffractive engineered surface (MODE) lens comprising a MODE primary lens having height transitions in the front surface that segment it into annular zones and a color corrector comprising a diffractive Fresnel lens (DFL). Polychromatic light passing through the MODE primary lens experiences LCA that is corrected by the color corrector. The color corrector can be configured to correct Type 1 LCA resulting from a combined effect of the DFL and a refractive index change versus wavelength associated with material comprising the device that together produce a change in focus of the polychromatic light, as well as Type 2 LCA resulting from a cyclic variation in focal length versus wavelength caused by the abrupt changes in the height of the front surface of the MODE primary lens at the transitions.

Abstract: A voltage regulator having a multiple of main stages and at least one accelerated voltage regulator (AVR) bridge is provided. The main stages may respond to low frequency current transients and provide DC output voltage regulation. The AVR bridges are switched much faster than the main stages and respond to high frequency current transients without regulating the DC output voltage. The AVR bridge frequency response range can overlap with the main stage frequency response range, and the lowest frequency to which the AVR bridges respond may be set lower than the highest frequency to which the main stages respond.

Abstract: Cathode material from exhausted lithium ion batteries are dissolved in a solution for extracting the useful elements Co (cobalt), Ni (nickel), Al (Aluminum) and Mn (manganese) to produce active cathode materials for new batteries. The solution includes compounds of desirable materials such as cobalt, nickel, aluminum and manganese dissolved as compounds from the exhausted cathode material of spent cells. Depending on a desired proportion, or ratio, of the desired materials, raw materials are added to the solution to achieve the desired ratio of the commingled compounds for the recycled cathode material for new cells. The desired materials precipitate out of solution without extensive heating or separation of the desired materials into individual compounds or elements. The resulting active cathode material has the predetermined ratio for use in new cells, and avoids high heat typically required to separate the useful elements because the desired materials remain commingled in solution.

Abstract: An electronic device may include a lenticular display. The lenticular display may have a lenticular lens film formed over an array of pixels. A plurality of lenticular lenses may extend across the length of the display. The lenticular lenses may be configured to enable stereoscopic viewing of the display such that a viewer perceives three-dimensional images. The display may have a number of independently controllable viewing zones. The viewer may be particularly susceptible to artifacts caused by crosstalk at the edge viewing zones within the primary field of view of the display. Certain types of content may also be more vulnerable to crosstalk than other types of content. Therefore, to mitigate crosstalk artifacts, the pixel value for each pixel may be adjusted based on the viewing zone of the respective pixel and content information (such as texture information or brightness information) associated with the respective pixel.
