    Abstract: In an embodiment, an SOC includes a global communication fabric that includes multiple independent networks having different communication and coherency protocols, and a plurality of input-output (I/O) clusters that includes different sets of local functional circuits. A given I/O cluster may be coupled to one or more of the independent networks and may include a particular set of local functional circuits, a local fabric coupled to the particular set of local functional circuits, and an interface circuit coupled to the local fabric and configured to bridge transactions between the particular set of local functional circuits and the global communication fabric. The interface circuit may include a programmable hardware transaction generator circuit configured to generate a set of test transactions that simulate interactions between the particular set of local functional circuits and a particular one of the one or more independent networks.

    Abstract: A pair of eyeglasses may include one or more adjustable lenses that are each configured to align with a respective one of a user's eyes. The adjustable lenses may each include electrically modulated optical material such as one or more liquid crystal cells. The liquid crystal cells may include arrays of electrodes that extend along one, two, three, four, or more than four directions. Control circuitry may apply control signals to the array of electrodes in each liquid crystal cell to produce a desired phase profile. Each lens may be foveated such that portions of the lens within the user's gaze exhibit a different phase profile than portions of the lens outside of the user's gaze. The control circuitry may adjust the location of the optically distinct area so that it remains aligned with the user's gaze.

    Abstract: A securement arm for an optical device includes a first portion having a first electronic component, the first portion connected to a viewing frame of the optical device. The securement arm also includes a second portion having a second electronic component coupled to the first portion by a spring element. The spring element can include a plastic deformation element and an elastic element. The securement arm also includes an electrical connector extending through the spring element and electrically connecting the first electronic component and the second electronic component.

    Abstract: In some embodiments, a computer system changes visual appearance of visual representations of participants moving within a simulated threshold distance of a user of the computer system. In some embodiments, a computer system arranges representations of users according to templates. In some embodiments, a computer system arranges representations of users based on shared content. In some embodiments, a computer system changes a spatial arrangement of participants in accordance with a quantity of participants that are a first type of participant. In some embodiments, a computer system changes a spatial arrangement of elements of a real-time communication session to join a group of participants. In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates interaction with groups of spatial representations of participants of a communication session. In some embodiments, a computer system facilitates updates of a spatial arrangement of participants based on a spatial distribution of the participants.
