Multi-touch auto scanning
ActiveUS20080162996A1Digital data processing detailsDetecting faulty computer hardwareEngineeringCalibration function
A system and method for autonomously scanning a sensor panel device, such as a multi-touch panel, is disclosed. In one embodiment, the system and method disables a sensor panel processor after a first predetermined amount of time has elapsed without the sensor panel device sensing any events. One or more system clocks can also be disabled to conserve power. While the processor and one or more system clocks are disabled, the sensor panel device can periodically autonomously scan the sensor panel for touch activity. Accordingly, if one or more results from the autonomous scans exceed a threshold, the sensor panel device re-enables the processor and one or more clocks to actively scan the sensor panel. If the threshold is not exceeded, then the sensor panel device continues to periodically autonomously scan the sensor panel without intervention from the processor. Furthermore, the sensor panel device can periodically perform calibration functions to account for any drift that may be present in the system.

Size-based analysis of fetal DNA fraction in maternal plasma
ActiveUS20130237431A1Health-index calculationMicrobiological testing/measurementAbnormal tissue growthBlood plasma
A fractional concentration of clinically-relevant DNA in a mixture of DNA from a biological sample is determined based on amounts of DNA fragments at multiple sizes. For example, the fractional concentration of fetal DNA in maternal plasma or tumor DNA in a patient's plasma can be determined. The size of DNA fragments in a sample is shown to be correlated with a proportion of fetal DNA and a proportion of tumor DNA, respectively. Calibration data points (e.g., as a calibration function) indicate a correspondence between values of a size parameter and the fractional concentration of the clinically-relevant DNA. For a given sample, a first value of a size parameter can be determined from the sizes of DNA fragments in a sample. A comparison of the first value to the calibration data points can provide the estimate of the fractional concentration of the clinically-relevant DNA.

The digital background calibration circuit comprises a pseudo random number generator, pipelined circuits with calibration functions and a digital background calibration engine. Based on the structure of the traditional pipelined analog-to-digital converter, a primary-stage pipelined circuit and a secondary-stage pipelined circuit are modified in the circuit disclosed in the invention to realize the injection of random signals and the digital background calibration engine is used to associate the random signals so as to realize the real-time extraction and compensation of error information, thereby avoiding the influence of irrational factors of the traditional pipelined analog-to-digital converter (such as capacitor mismatching, limitations of operational amplifier gains and the like) on the conversion precision of the analog-to-digital converter. The technology can lower the design difficulty of an analog circuit and ensure the performance of a system. At the same time, because of the simple algorithm and the low implementation complexity, the calibration circuit can be used to effectively reduce the area of the chip and lower the power consumption of the system, thereby being especially applicable to a high-speed system.

Open-loop light intensity calibration systems and methods
InactiveUS6239554B1Reduce lightReduce inconsistencyPhotometry using reference valuePhotometry using wholly visual meansEffect lightVisual perception
The input light settings in many vision systems often do not correspond to fixed output light intensities. The relationships between the measured output light intensity and the input light intensity are inconsistent between vision systems or within a single vision system over time. This inconsistency makes it difficult to interchange part-programs even between visions systems of one model of vision systems, because a part program with one set of light intensity values might produce images of varying brightness on another vision system. However, many measurements depend on the brightness of the image. To solve this problem, a reference lighting curve is generated for a reference vision system, relating an input light intensity value to a resulting output light intensity. A corresponding specific lighting curve is generated for a specific vision system that corresponds to the reference vision system. A calibration function is determined that converts a reference input light intensity value into a specific input light intensity value. Accordingly, when an input light intensity value is input, the specific vision system is driven at a corresponding specific input light intensity value such that the output light intensity of the specific vision system is essentially the same as the output light intensity of the reference vision system when the reference vision system is driven at the input light intensity value. Thus, in a vision system calibrated using these lighting calibration systems and methods, the specific lighting behavior of that vision system is modified to follow a pre-defined, or reference, lighting behavior.
