Abstract:
A method of controlling an operation of an induction actuated container cover includes the steps of (a) normally retaining a cover panel of the container cover in a closed position; (b) detecting a target movement of a user by a sensor; (c) generating a first actuating signal to an actuation unit when the sensor detects the target movement of the user; (d) generating an actuation output from the actuation unit to the cover panel of the container cover, wherein the actuation output contains a decelerating and torque enhancing force which moves the cover panel of the container cover at an opened position; (e) pivotally actuating the cover panel of the container cover at the opened position via the actuation output to expose a storage cavity, and (f) generating a second actuating signal to pivotally actuate the cover panel of the container cover back to the closed position.

Abstract:
A method, computer program product and system for automatically determining an object display mode to provide a display for objects. Information about the objects to be displayed and information about a display area is received. An object display mode is selected according to the received information about the display area and according to the received information about the objects to be displayed. A display for the objects is then provided with the selected object display mode. Switching can be made between a single-page display mode and a paging display mode, and whether in the single-page display mode or in the paging display mode, the user can conveniently browse and select the display objects, and the browsing efficiency and user experience of object display for the user are improved.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments provide semiconductor devices including high-quality (i.e., defect free) group III-N nanowires and uniform group III-N nanowire arrays as well as their scalable processes for manufacturing, where the position, orientation, cross-sectional features, length and the crystallinity of each nanowire can be precisely controlled. A pulsed growth mode can be used to fabricate the disclosed group III-N nanowires and/or nanowire arrays providing a uniform length of about 10 nm to about 1000 microns with constant cross-sectional features including an exemplary diameter of about 10-1000 nm. In addition, high-quality GaN substrate structures can be formed by coalescing the plurality of GaN nanowires and/or nanowire arrays to facilitate the fabrication of visible LEDs and lasers. Furthermore, core-shell nanowire/MQW active structures can be formed by a core-shell growth on the nonpolar sidewalls of each nanowire.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an apparatus and method of frame synchronization in broad band wireless communication systems. In an apparatus of frame synchronization in a mobile station, a time variant phase rotation compensator eliminates time variant phase rotation carried in received signals by conjugated multiplication between adjacent signal samples. Then, the processed signal is fed into a delay correlator to calculate a plurality of correlations between two successive frames. A local power calculator acquires an average power of several symbols centered on delayed correlation values. A normalizer normalizes the delayed correlation values with a local average power corresponding to the delayed correlation values. A maximum value detector selects the maximum value from normalized correlation values to trigger frame synchronizing and timing signals.
Abstract:
A multiband antenna includes a long radiating branch, a short radiating branch, a short strip, a feed point, a grounding portion, a connecting portion, a long parasitic strip, and a short parasitic strip. The feed point, the long radiating branch, the short radiating branch, and the short strip are in a first plane. The grounding portion connects to the short strip. The connecting portion connects the long radiating branch, the short radiating branch, and the short strip. The long radiating branch, the short strip, and the connecting portion form a first inverted-L shaped antenna structure. The short radiating branch, the short strip, and the connecting portion form a second inverted-L shaped antenna structure. The long parasitic strip and the short parasitic strip are in a second plane and respectively connected to the grounding portion. The first plane is parallel to the second plane.
Abstract:
A lighting system generally includes a plurality of electrically interconnected modules. Each module includes a support, circuitry on the support, at least two light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) on the support and electrically connected to the circuitry, and a housing over the support for covering the circuitry. A first LED on a first surface of the support emits light in a first general direction and a second LED mounted on a second surface of the support emits light in a second general direction, which is opposite the first general direction.
Abstract:
An integrated process flow for forming an NMOS transistor (104) and an embedded SiGe (eSiGe) PMOS transistor (102) using a stress memorization technique (SMT) layer (126). The SMT layer (126) is deposited over both the NMOS transistor (104) and PMOS transistor (102). The portion of SMT layer (126) over PMOS transistor (102) is anisotropically etched to form spacers (128) without etching the portion of SMT layer (126) over NMOS transistor (104). Spacers (128) are used to align the SiGe recess etch and growth to form SiGe source/drain regions (132). The source/drain anneals are performed after etching the SMT layer (126) such that SMT layer (126) provides the desired stress to the NMOS transistor (104) without degrading PMOS transistor (102).
