IPC: G06F3/01
Filed: 2016-12-15
Abstract: Presence of a control article 104, such as a user’s finger or a stylus, is detected in a first proximity zone 122 proximate a user computing device 102. In response, first data corresponding to a presentation mode of a user interface associated with the user computing device is displayed. In response to detecting the presence of the control article in a second proximity zone 124 proximate the computing device 102, defining a separate physical area than the first proximity zone, and separating the first proximity zone and the computing device, second data corresponding to an interactive mode of the user interface is displayed. In an embodiment, the presence of the control article in the zones is determined by a radar module transmitting radar signals. In another embodiment the control article is the hand of a user.

Patent GB-2587066-A (GB)
Title: Method for compensating gain flatness of transceiver
Inventor: QINSONG CHEN
IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 2020-06-09
Abstract: This invention addresses the problem of un-flatness of gain of a receiver or/and transmitter. A method of addressing such transmitter or receiver induced distortion is disclosed and is described by the applicant as “compensating for gain flatness”. The disclosed method involves using a signal generator to generate N single-tone signals which span a frequency range of interest. The power of each of the plurality of single-tone signal is measured to generate an N-point “gain flatness” signal Pn’ for the frequency interval. Linear phase information is added to Pn’ to generate an N-point complex sequence, Xn. An IFFT operation is performed on the sequence Xn to generate an N-point sequence Yn, which is presumably in the time domain. The invention is characterised by approximating the N-point time domain sequence Yn with a Q point sequence ZQ. This is preferably achieved using a feedback loop which minimises mean-square error (see Fig. 2). The approximated sequence ZQ is used to determine the coefficients of a complex FIR filter. The FIR filter is applied in a transmitter or a receiver.

Title: Techniques for enhancing skin renders using neural network projection for rendering completion
Inventor: Derek Edward Bradley
IPC: G06T15/00
Filed: 2022-01-26
Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for generating photorealistic images of head portraits. A rendering application renders a set of images that include the skin of a face and corresponding masks indicating pixels associated with the skin in the images. An inpainting application performs a neural projection technique to optimize a set of parameters that, when input into a generator model, produces a set of projection images, each of which includes a head portrait in which (1) skin regions resemble the skin regions of the face in a corresponding rendered image and (2) non-skin regions match the non-skin regions in the other projection images when the rendered set of images are standalone images or transition smoothly between consecutive projection images in the case when the rendered set of images are frames of a video. The rendered images can then be blended with corresponding projection images to generate composite images that are photorealistic.
