Abstract: Examples of noise suppression controls are described herein. In some examples, an electronic device includes a processor to classify, using a first machine learning model, an environment based on video of the environment to produce a classification. In some examples, the processor is to detect, using a second machine learning model, a situation in the environment based on the video to produce a detection. In some examples, the processor is to control noise suppression on audio captured from the environment based on the classification and the detection.

Abstract: In some examples, a wafer bow measurement system comprises a measurement unit including: a wafer support assembly to impart rotational movement to a measured wafer supported in the measurement unit; an optical sensor; a calibration standard to calibrate the optical sensor; a linear stage actuator to impart linear direction of movement to the optical sensor; a wafer centering sensor to determine a centering of the measured wafer supported in the measurement unit; and a wafer alignment sensor to determine an alignment of the measured wafer supported in the measurement unit.

Abstract: Rotational hardstop assemblies that provide greater than 360 degrees of non-continuous rotation for rotating mechanisms are provided. In certain embodiments, an assembly is used to provide 630 or more degrees of rotation for the shoulder axis of a robot, such as a wafer transfer robot. The rotational hardstop assemblies include opposing magnets as springs. According to various embodiments, the opposing magnets provide non-contact engagement and produce no contact noise nor have any wear over time. The rotational hardstop assemblies provide the ability to location from either direction of rotation of a robot cylindrical coordinate system.

Abstract: A work piece handling apparatus moves workpieces with a plurality of independently movable load cups that have combined multiple axes of motion. The apparatus can load and unload work pieces from a wet process station and move work pieces between wet process stations and maintain wet chemistry delivery to the workpiece without involving a robot. A method of work piece handling using the apparatus provides a significant throughput improvement by reducing the inherent time lag of pneumatic systems and eliminating multiple steps involving the robot during inter-station wafer transfer.

Abstract: In one embodiment, a wafer-handling robot in a wafer processing system is automatically calibrated by determining an orientation of the robot relative to a chassis of the wafer processing system, determining hand-off coordinates of a load port in the wafer processing system, and determining hand-off coordinates of a load lock in the wafer processing system. Also disclosed is a calibration fixture for automatically calibrating the wafer-handling robot to the load port.

Abstract: A handheld, battery-operated ultraviolet sterilization device having a cold cathode ultraviolet lamp enclosed in a protective chassis. The cold cathode ultraviolet lamp is a low voltage lamp and the power supplied by two AA batteries provides hours of lamp operation.
