摘要:
The subject invention provides a parallel or closed loop mechanism for moving and positioning a member in space. The mechanism includes three branches each provided with at least two link members being serially connected together by a spherical elbow joint whereby the first and second link members are rotatable with respect to each other about any axis passing through a center of the first joint. The mechanism is provided with actuators for moving each branch and the first links of each branch are rigidly connected at an end portion thereof to the actuator means. The mechanism includes three revolute joints each defining a longitudinal axis of rotation. Each revolute joint is connected to an associated second link member so that the longitudinal axes of all third joints intersect at a point and the revolute joints are interconnected so that the three branches form three parallel or closed loops.

A four degree of freedom manipulator which comprises a pair of elongate rigid legs connected by a joint. The joint acts as an end-effector or an end-effector is attached thereto, The legs effectively intersect at a point in the joint. The positioning end of each leg is attached to a two degree of freedom positioning mechanism that can position it in a two dimensional plane. The connection between the leg and the positioning mechanism has two passive rotational degrees of freedom. Preferably five bar mechanisms are used as the positioning mechanisms. The manipulator can control the position and orientation of an end-effector.
摘要:
A time-domain inertial sensor comprising: a support structure having an electrode plane parallel to an x-y plane of an x-y-z mutually orthogonal coordinate system, wherein the support structure's largest dimension lies within the x-y plane; a proof mass having a first surface parallel to the x-y plane; wherein the proof mass is springedly coupled to the support structure such that the first surface is separated from the electrode plane by a gap; a driver configured to drive the proof mass to oscillate with respect to the support structure in approximately only the x-direction such that, while oscillating, the gap does not vary significantly; and a first, time-domain, proximity switch disposed to switch from an open state to a closed state each time the proof mass is in a first reference position with respect to the support structure.

Described are a backlight, a backlight assembly for use in an electronic device and an electronic device configured to activate the backlight's first light source and to activate the backlight's second light source independently of one another. The described double-sided backlight may illuminate either the primary display or the secondary display. The disclosed backlight includes two light sources, each used to direct light in opposite directions from the double-sided backlight. The light guide of the backlight is configured to direct light from the first light source in a first direction to exit the light guide via its first face, and to direct light from the second light source in a second direction different from the first direction to exit the light guide via its second face.

摘要:
An apparatus and method for timing calibration of write and read-back data exchanges between respective dies of an external memory/external device has a master arbiter or, alternatively, a test bus between a system bus master interface and an external memory controller for driving the external memory/external device, a calibration circuit under control of the master arbiter via a test bus master interface to provide stepped-through time delays for test data exchanges between the dies, and the calibration circuit obtains pass/fail data indicating pass or fail of the varied time delays for the test data exchanges. A processor system at the system bus master interface selects calibration values corresponding to pass data, and applies the calibration values to the respective dies for timing of write and read-back data exchanges between the dies.
摘要:
A method and system for a personal network. The method and system includes plural mobile location-aware client network devices with minimal CPU processing power and memory with a thin client application that uses secure tunneling/threads to send data to/from a home server network device and/or other server network devices on a personal network. The client devices can be voice activated. The home server network device and/or other server network devices do computational services requested by the plural mobile client network devices on demand and/or pre-programmed services. The secure tunneling/threads are also used across cloud and non-cloud communications network to/from other network devices and/or other mobile client network devices via the home network servers or other server network devices.
