    摘要: An electronic display includes a display panel, which includes an array of pixels and a driver configured to activate and deactivate the emission of light from each of the pixels in the array. The electronic display also includes a panel driver configured to generate and transmit an emission interrupt signal to the driver, wherein the emission interrupt signal causes the driver to deactivate the emission of light from all pixels in the array for a set period of time prior to a refresh of a line of pixels in the array.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and devices are provided to identify the occurrence, location, and/or severity of a fracture within an integrated circuit, even when the integrated circuit is not accessible to external inspection. One such method includes obtaining a measurement of a property of the integrated circuit through at least one contact of the integrated circuit. The measurement may include a resistance of a resistive pattern in the integrated circuit or a measurement of current-voltage behavior of a power supply of the integrated circuit. The measurement of the property may be compared to an expected baseline property. Based at least in part on this comparison, whether a fracture of the integrated circuit has occurred and a location of the fracture in the integrated circuit may be determined.

    摘要: Systems, methods, and devices for calibrating an electronic display to reduce or eliminate a mura artifact are provided. The mura artifact may be due to differential behavior of common voltage layers (VCOMs) in the electronic display. One method for reducing or eliminating the mura artifact may involve setting pixels of the electronic display to a first gray level and measuring a luminance difference between light and dark areas of a mura artifact on the electronic display. A value of an operating parameter of the electronic display may be adjusted while monitoring the luminance difference measurement. A value of the operating parameter that causes the luminance difference measurement to be within a specified range of acceptable luminance difference measurement values may be stored in the electronic display.

    摘要: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a method for determining a road vehicle velocity and slip angle. The current disclosure presents a technique for identifying a vehicle's velocity and slip angle, in the vehicle's coordinate frame. In one embodiment, two or more sensors are orthogonally located on the underside of the vehicle in order to obtain longitudinal and lateral velocity information for slip angle determination. In another embodiment, the two or more sensors can include an array of elements for beam steering and receiver beamforming. Spatial diversity is leveraged in identifying at least a slip angle and/or velocity of the vehicle. Doppler mapping is used as a means for slip angle determination and the clutter ridge of the Doppler map is embraced for identifying the slip angle.

    摘要: Some embodiments provide a sensor data-processing system which detects and classifies objects detected in an environment via fusion of sensor data representations generated by multiple separate sensors. The sensor data-processing system can fuse sensor data representations generated by multiple sensor devices into a fused sensor data representation and can further detect and classify features in the fused sensor data representation. Feature detection can be implemented based at least in part upon utilizing a feature-detection model generated via one or more of deep learning and traditional machine learning. The sensor data-processing system can adjust sensor data processing of representations generated by sensor devices based on external factors including indications of sensor health and environmental conditions. The sensor data-processing system can be implemented in a vehicle and provide output data associated with the detected objects to a navigation system which navigates the vehicle according to the output data.

    摘要: Sensor data captured at by different sensors may be shared across different sensor processing pipelines. Sensor processing pipelines may process captured sensor data from respective sensors. Some of the sensor data that is received or processed at one sensor data processing pipeline may be provided to another sensor data processing pipeline so that subsequent processing stages at the recipient sensor processing pipeline may process the combined sensor data in order to determine a perception decision. Different types of sensor data may be shared, including raw sensor data, processed sensor data, or data derived from sensor data. A control system may perform control actions based on the perception decisions determined by the sensor processing pipelines that share sensor data.
