  • Publication number: 20240095868
    Abstract: A watermark embedding method includes the following steps. The input video signal is received by a processing circuit. Grayscale information of a watermark signal is generated by the processing circuit according to a time series data and a predetermined plane. During a dark sate and a bright state in each of a plurality of consecutive periods, phases of the time series data are opposite and integral values of the grayscales of the predetermined plane are the same. The processing circuit embeds the watermark signal into the input video signal to generate an output video signal with the watermark information. The display panel displays an image according to the output video signal.

  • Patent number: 10826246
    Abstract: An electrical connector includes an insulative housing and a plurality of contacts retained within the housing as a contact module. The housing includes a base and a mating tongue forwardly extending from the base. The contacts are arranged with two rows contacting sections respectively exposed upon two opposite surfaces of the mating tongue, and one row mounting sections for mounting to a same plane of a printed circuit board. Each contact has a linking section between the contacting section and the mounting section. The contacts are grouped by one grounding contact associated with a pair of neighboring differential pair signal contacts in an isosceles triangular configuration wherein the grounding contact is located at the top apex. The linking section of grounding contact of the outermost group is widened compared with those of the remaining contacts for lowering the corresponding impedance.
