Publication number: 20240427389Abstract: Examples herein relate to ambient noise level detection. For instance, in some examples an electronic device includes a cooling resource and a processor resource to alter an operational speed of the cooling resource from an initial operational speed to a first altered operational speed, detect an ambient noise level, compare the ambient noise level to a first noise threshold, and restrict the operational speed of the cooling resource to be less than the initial operational speed.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2021Publication date: December 26, 2024Applicant: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: CHIH-WEI HUANG, YI-YING LAI, CHIH-LING WEI, HUNG HUA PENG, DAVIS MATTHEW CASTILLO, CHING YU

Publication number: 20240248520Abstract: An example device comprises: a surface-type sensor to detect a type of surface on which the device is located; a proximity sensor; and a processor. The processor is to: in response to detecting, using the surface-type sensor, that the device is located on a soft-type surface, increase noise output of the device; and, in response to detecting, using the proximity sensor, that a plurality of persons are proximal the device, decrease the noise output of the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 10, 2021Publication date: July 25, 2024Applicant: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Yun David Tang, Nick Thamma, Hui Leng Lim, Yi Ying Lai, Davis Matthew Castillo, Pei Hsuan Li

Patent number: 11968512Abstract: In an example, a speaker device may include a first transducer and a second transducer. The first transducer may include a first diaphragm, a first magnetic circuit, and a first voice coil disposed in a magnetic gap of the first magnetic circuit to cause vibration of the first diaphragm. The second transducer may include a second diaphragm, a second magnet circuit, and a second voice coil disposed in a magnetic gap of the second magnetic circuit to cause vibration of the second diaphragm. Further, the speaker device may include a magnetic plate having a first surface coupled to the first transducer and a second surface coupled to the second transducer. The first surface is opposite to the second surface.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2022Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Yen-Hsin Ho, Yi-Ying Lai, Chen-Hui Hu, Chen-Yu Chang

Patent number: 8113692Abstract: A light source module for generating polarized light includes a light emitting element, a reflector, and an optical element. The light emitting element generates a light ray, and the reflector reflects the light ray towards the optical element. The optical element includes a light splitting face and a reflection face. The light splitting face receives the light ray, and an angle between the light splitting face and the incident light ray is at about a Brewster's Angle. After the light ray is irradiated to the light splitting face, the light ray is divided into a refraction light and a reflection light. The reflection face reflects the refraction light, and the reflection face is substantially perpendicular to a path of the refraction light. Therefore, a light source with a high degree of polarization is realized by a design of the light splitting face and the reflection face.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2009Date of Patent: February 14, 2012Assignee: Industrial Technology Research InstituteInventors: Jung-Tsung Chou, Hui-Lung Kuo, Pin-Chen Chen, Yi-Ying Lai, Sheng-Wen Lin
