  • Publication number: 20240089663
    Abstract: A multifunctional sound device includes a housing, a sound unit, a vibrator, and a coil. The housing includes an accommodating cavity, and the sound unit is suspended in the accommodating cavity. The sound unit includes a frame, a vibration system, and a magnetic circuit system. The vibration system is fixed in the frame, and the magnetic circuit system drives the vibration system to vibrate and generate sound along a first direction, where the magnetic circuit system includes a magnetic gap. Since the speaker and the motor share one magnetic system, the sound unit and the vibrator are assembled in the housing, which greatly reduces occupied space. The sound unit and the vibrator form a dual-vibration system, and the sound unit cooperatively vibrates with the vibrator in addition to generating sound, which improves vibration effects and further avoids adding other components, thereby saving space.

  • Patent number: 9106584
    Abstract: An aspect of the disclosed technology is a general-purpose platform that may be used to provide resilient cloud services. Tasks may be written as procedures in general-purpose programming languages that directly manipulate resources via control interfaces. In one implementation, resource states, such as router configurations and virtual machine states, associated with a cloud customer that provides communications services, may be abstracted into tables in a relational or semi-structured database. State changes that have been written to the database tables are automatically propagated by the database to appropriate customer physical devices, such as network elements, thereby implementing various customer network operations.

  • Patent number: 8903086
    Abstract: A switcher device comprises a multiplexer coupled in-between at least one input and output cards. The multiplexer detects the presence of an event signal from an activated sink. In response to the detection of the event signal, a processor changes an address of an HDCP receiver from a first address to a second address for enabling the at least one source to authenticate with the input card and enabling the output card to authenticate with the at least one sink for security protocol encryption. In response to the non-detection of the event signal, the processor changes the address of an HDCP receiver from the second address to the first address for disabling the at least one source from initiating a first authentication with the input card, therefore the output card also does not attempt to initiate a second authentication with the at least one sink for security protocol encryption.

  • Patent number: 8898467
    Abstract: A switcher device comprises a multiplexer coupled in-between at least one input and output cards. The multiplexer detects the presence of an event signal from an activated sink. In response to the detection of the event signal, the switch dynamically switches to a closed position in order to enable the at least one source to authenticate with the input card and the output card to authenticate with the at least one sink for security protocol encryption. In response to the non-detection of the event signal, the switch switches dynamically to an open position in order to disable the at least one source from authenticating with the input card, therefore the output card also does not attempt to authenticate with the at least one sink for security protocol encryption.

  • Patent number: 8682940
    Abstract: The disclosed technology involves the use of relational databases in conjunction with declarative language and network-wide, database abstractions to manage and operate networks. The data model creates a logically centralized database abstraction and access point for managing data relevant to network management. Exemplary managed data includes router configurations, network status and provisioning data. This information resides in a single database system which is tightly integrated with the operational network. Transactional write operations are used to change network configurations, and enforce constraints to detect and prevent policy violations during operation. In accordance with one aspect of the disclosed technology, a network operation is implemented by means of a series of database commands—read and/or write—from and to database view tables.
