  • Patent number: 12234569
    Abstract: A fabricating method of a non-enzyme sensor element includes a printing step, a coating step and an electroplating step. In the printing step, a conductive material is printed on a surface of a substrate to form a working electrode, a reference electrode and an auxiliary electrode, and a porous carbon material is printed on the working electrode to form a porous carbon layer. In the coating step, a graphene film material is coated on the porous carbon layer of the working electrode to form a graphene layer. In the electroplating step, a metal is electroplated on the graphene layer by a pulse constant current to form a catalyst layer including a metal oxide.

  • Patent number: 12056670
    Abstract: The disclosed technology provides solutions for improving work ticketing triage and in particular, for improving the triage of work orders for detected failure events (or predicted failure events) for a fleet of vehicles, such as a fleet of autonomous vehicles (AVs). In some aspects, a process of the disclosed technology can include steps for receiving field data, processing the field data to identify two or more potential failure events associated with at least one AV from among one or more AVs, and automatically generating a work order for each of the two or more potential failure events. In some aspects, the process can further include steps for calculating a dynamic priority number for each of the two or more potential failure events and sorting the work orders based on the dynamic priority. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.

  • Patent number: 8587714
    Abstract: A method for capturing an image, suitable for an image capturing apparatus with a flash lamp, is provided. In the invention, a pre-flash image is captured when a pre-flash is fired by the flash lamp. An intensity of a main flash is estimated. Whether the pre-flash image is overexposed is determined for calculating an overexposure number. A brightness comparison data is looked up according to the overexposure number and a brightness target value, so as to reduce a photosensitivity. A raw image is captured according to the reduced photosensitivity when the main flash is fired by the flash lamp.

  • Patent number: 8351778
    Abstract: A method for adjusting brightness of an image, suitable for an image capturing apparatus with a flash lamp, is provided. In the method, an intensity of a main flash of the flash lamp is raised, and a sensitivity is reduced. When the main flash is fired by the flash lamp, a raw image is captured according to the reduced sensitivity for calculating a brightness mean value. A gain ratio is calculated according to the brightness mean value and a brightness target, so as to use the gain ratio to compensate the brightness of the raw image.

  • Patent number: 7345959
    Abstract: A method of data storage in an optical storage media under multiple specifications. When a data is provided to store in a data area of the optical storage media under Mount Rainier (M3) specification, a first index of the data area under M3 specification is stored into a first data index area, i.e. an area of M3 file allocation table, of the optical storage media. Further, a conversion of the logical address of the data area from M3 specification to Method Two (M2) specification is proceeded, and a second index of the data area under M2 specification can be obtained and stored into a second data index area, i.e. an area of M2 file allocation table, which is in a general application area (GAA) under M3 specification, of the optical storage media.
