  • Publication number: 20250135348
    Abstract: In an interaction method, a first flyable prop is generated in a virtual scene when a first cast operation is triggered by a first virtual object. The first flyable prop is associated with a virtual skill and the first virtual object is associated with a first camp. The first flyable prop that is controlled to move along a first flight trajectory is displayed. The first flight trajectory is determined based on the first cast operation. The first flyable prop is controlled to move along a second flight trajectory when a second flyable prop is detected within a target range of the first flyable prop. The second flyable prop is generated based on a second cast operation performed by a second virtual object. The second virtual object is associated with a second camp. The second flight trajectory is different from the first flight trajectory.

  • Publication number: 20250131122
    Abstract: A system includes a text receiver, a rule-based privacy checklist module, a personalized learning module, and a reasoning module. The text receiver converts user input into a machine-readable format. The rule-based privacy checklist module retrieves privacy norms from a database, processes these norms into annotated rules, and compares input data against them to create a structured report. The personalized learning module, using a fine-tuned BERT, classifies contextual information for privacy violations and generates a local privacy report. The reasoning module integrates multi-turn dialogues, applies chain-of-thought reasoning to evaluate the entire context for private information, and delivers comprehensive cloud-based privacy judgments and reports.

  • Publication number: 20250036437
    Abstract: Some embodiments provide a method for configuring a first Pod in a container cluster to perform layer 7 (L7) services for a logical router. At a second Pod that performs logical forwarding operations for the logical router, the method receives configuration data for the logical router from a network management system that defines a logical network for which the logical router routes data messages and performs L7 services. The method provides a set of Pod definition data to a cluster controller to create the first Pod. After creation of the first Pod, the method provides to the first Pod (i) networking information to enable a connection between the first and second Pods and (ii) configuration data defining the L7 services for the first Pod to perform the L7 services on data traffic sent from the second Pod to the first Pod.

  • Patent number: 12207154
    Abstract: A method for providing better connecting signals is disclosed. Coordinates of multiple mobile terminals are obtained. Distances between a mobile Wi-Fi (MIFI) device and the mobile terminals are calculated according to received signal strength indicator (RSSI) values between the mobile terminals and the MIFI device, and a relative coordinate of the MIFI device is then calculated based on the distances. Unit vectors of the mobile terminals relative to the MIFI device are calculated according to the relative coordinate of the MIFI device and the coordinates of the mobile devices. Reference signal receiving power (RSRP) values of the mobile terminals are calculated and are multiplied by the unit vectors to obtain RSRP vectors of the mobile terminals. The RSRP vectors are added up to generate a position where the MIFI device moves to a base station.
