    Abstract: When the speed of head movement exceeds the processing capability of the system, a reduced depiction is displayed. As one example, the resolution may be reduced using coarse pixel shading in order to create a new depiction at the speed of head movement. In accordance with another embodiment, only the region the user is looking at is processed in full resolution and the remainder of the depiction is processed at lower resolution. In still another embodiment, the background depictions may be blurred or grayed out to reduce processing time.

  • Publication number: 20200057504
    Abstract: Techniques and apparatuses are described that implement a smartphone-based radar system capable of detecting user gestures using coherent multi-look radar processing. Different approaches use a multi-look interferometer or a multi-look beamformer to coherently average multiple looks of a distributed target across two or more receive channels according to a window that spans one or more dimensions in time, range, or Doppler frequency. By coherently averaging the multiple looks, a radar system generates radar data with higher gain and less noise. This enables the radar system to achieve higher accuracies and be implemented within a variety of different devices. With these accuracies, the radar system can support a variety of different applications, including gesture recognition or presence detection.

In the contact state, the controller controls the transmitter to send the switch information SW1 at a first bit rate. In the hover state, the controller controls the transmitter to send the switch information SW1 at a second bit rate smaller than the first bit rate. A technical advantage includes lowering the possibility of a failure to receive downlink signals when the stylus is in hover state, even though the stylus sends the downlink signals with the same intensity as when the stylus is in contact state.

    Abstract: A touch module includes a touch panel unit, a conductive adhesive layer and a circuit board. The touch panel unit includes a substrate, a touch sensing structure disposed on the substrate, a signal transmitting structure disposed on the substrate and electrically connected to the touch sensing structure, and a protection layer covering a part of a surface of the signal transmitting structure. The protection layer and the substrate are disposed at two opposite sides of the signal transmitting structure. The conductive adhesive layer has a main portion which covers a region of the signal transmitting structure on which the protection layer is not disposed, and a cover portion which extends from the main portion and covers the protection layer. The circuit board is disposed on the conductive adhesive layer, and the circuit board and the signal transmitting structure are disposed at two opposite sides of the conductive adhesive layer.

  • Publication number: 20200057531
    Abstract: A single volume soft sensor capable of sensing real-time continuous contact and stretching. An electrical impedance tomography (EIT) technique with support vector machine (SVM) learning is employed to estimate changes of resistance distribution on the sensor caused by fingertip contact even during sensor deformation events. A deformation switch is incorporated to maintain the localization during deformation events.

    Abstract: The present invention enables making a response that (i) increases a user's motivation to cheer for an event and (ii) motivates the user to visit an event site to cheer. A totalizing system (100) includes a server (3) and a terminal system (10). In a specific mode, the terminal system (i) detects a user's behavior including motion and utterance, (ii) transmits a cheering point calculated with reference to the behavior which has been detected, and (iii) displays a result of totalization obtained. The server makes a totalization of a cheering point obtained and transmits a result of the totalization.
