  • Patent number: 11140442
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus are described for providing content playback options to content playback systems based on the capabilities of the systems. These techniques determine whether the content options should be provided based on the capabilities of a source device in a combined playback system. The version of the High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP) protocol used to initialize the connection between the source and sink devices is determined. Based on the version of the HDCP protocol used, an override message may be sent to the content service, in response to which the media player on the source device is directed to an content service endpoint corresponding to particular set of playback options.

  • Publication number: 20210303898
    Abstract: A sensor calibration target includes dark markings on a light substrate. The dark markings absorb more heat from a heat source than the light substrate, and are visually distinguishable from the light substrate. Thus, the dark markings are discernable by the both a camera and an infrared sensor of a vehicle during vehicle sensor calibration. The sensor calibration target may otherwise non-metallic but include a metallic feature for calibrating a radio detection and ranging (RADAR) sensor. The sensor calibration target may also include one or more apertures in the substrate for calibrating a light detection and ranging (LIDAR) sensor.

  • Patent number: 11129112
    Abstract: Methods and apparatuses are provided in which at least one parameter associated with a sidelink transmission is received from a base station. It is identified whether an uplink transmission is scheduled in a transmission time interval (TTI) in which a sidelink transmission to a second terminal is scheduled. The sidelink transmission is transmitted to the second terminal in the TTI in case that no uplink transmission is scheduled in the TTI. The sidelink transmission is transmitted based on a smaller transmission power value from two transmission power values.

  • Publication number: 20210284791
    Abstract: In various embodiments, the present invention is directed to a PPF-based copolymer for 3D printing applications and methods for its making and use. These copolymers have a viscosity in a printable viscosity range and allow light transmittance at curing wavelengths. In various embodiments, a lower viscosity copolymers are obtained by substitution of a portion of maleic anhydride with succinic anhydride and then forming a poly(propylene fumarate-co-succinate) copolymer by the copolymerization of maleic anhydride and succinic anhydride with propylene oxide via Mg(BHT)2(THF)2 catalyzed ring opening copolymerization (ROCOP). Because of their lower viscosities, these copolymers require less, if any, diethyl fumarate (DEF) to prepare the 3D printing resin, while the mechanical properties can still be adjusted as with a PPF polymer prepared without the succinic anhydride.

  • Patent number: 11121828
    Abstract: New radio (NR) Uplink (UL) transmissions in an NR physical UL channel can be configured for a user equipment (UE) to communicate with a base station (e.g., gNB). The structures and mechanisms for configured these communications different from long term evolution (LTE) in NR specifications. A UE can generate a UL transmission with symbols on the NR physical channel including demodulation-reference signal (DM-RS) symbols and uplink control information (UCI) symbols. The UL transmissions comprise a DM-RS symbol located at each first symbol with variable lengths. The UE generates the UL transmission as an NR physical UL channel with about a 50% DM-RS overhead with a same or more DM-RS symbols than UCI symbols in a sequential pattern (e.g., an alternating pattern). The UE further maps HARQ-ACK feedback on a PUSCH based a frequency first operation that initiates following the DM-RS symbol located at the first symbol.

  • Patent number: 11115668
    Abstract: This application relates to video encoding and decoding, and specifically to tools and techniques for using and providing supplemental enhancement information in bitstreams. Among other things, the detailed description presents innovations for bitstreams having supplemental enhancement information (SEI). In particular embodiments, the SEI message includes picture source data (e.g., data indicating whether the associated picture is a progressive scan picture or an interlaced scan picture and/or data indicating whether the associated picture is a duplicate picture). The SEI message can also express a confidence level of the encoder's relative confidence in the accuracy of this picture source data. A decoder can use the confidence level indication to determine whether the decoder should separately identify the picture as progressive or interlaced and/or a duplicate picture or honor the picture source scanning information in the SEI as it is.

  • Patent number: 11115691
    Abstract: A media processing tool adds custom data to an elementary media bitstream or media container. The custom data indicates nominal range of samples of media content, but the meaning of the custom data is not defined in the codec format or media container format. For example, the custom data indicates the nominal range is full range or limited range. For playback, a media processing tool parses the custom data and determines an indication of media content type. A rendering engine performs color conversion operations whose logic changes based at least in part on the media content type. In this way, a codec format or media container format can in effect be extended to support full nominal range media content as well as limited nominal range media content, and hence preserve full or correct color fidelity, while maintaining backward compatibility and conformance with the codec format or media container format.
