Substrate processing apparatus

Provided is a cooling device capable of controlling the temperature of an upper portion of a reactor, particularly, a gas supply device, for example, a shower head, by using a vortex tube. The cooling device may supply a cooling gas of a temperature lower than the temperature of the gas supply device heated to a high temperature, thereby easily controlling the temperature of the gas supply device.

SUBSTRATE PROCESSING APPARATUS, BEVEL MASK AND SUBSTRATE PROCESSING METHOD

Examples of a substrate processing apparatus include a chamber, a shielding component that is a susceptor or an upper cover provided in the chamber, and a bevel mask that is provided in the chamber and has an inclined surface on which a vertical distance from the shielding component increases toward a center side of the shielding component.

Computer vision based sign language interpreter

A system and method for translating sign language utterances into a target language, including: receiving motion capture data; producing phonemes/sign fragments from the received motion capture data; producing a plurality of sign sequences from the phonemes/sign fragments; parsing these sign sequences to produce grammatically parsed sign utterances; translating the grammatically parsed sign utterances into grammatical representations in the target language; and generating output utterances in the target language based upon the grammatical representations.

Controlling an ultrasonic surgical instrument according to tissue location

Various systems and methods for controlling an ultrasonic surgical instrument according to the location of tissue grasped within an end effector are disclosed. A control circuit can be configured to apply varying power levels, via a generator, to an ultrasonic transducer driving an ultrasonic electromechanical system to oscillate an ultrasonic blade. Further, the control circuit can measure impedances of the ultrasonic transducer corresponding to the varying power levels and determine a location of tissue positioned within the end effector according to a difference between the impedances of the ultrasonic transducer relative to a threshold.

Surgical network determination of prioritization of communication, interaction, or processing based on system or device needs

A surgical hub within a surgical hub network may include a controller having a processor, in which the controller may determine a priority of a communication, an interaction, or a processing of information based on a requirement of a device communicating with the hub. The device may be a smart surgical device. The requirement of the surgical device may comprise data processed by a device component of an associated system The controller may prioritize communication of the data processed by the device component of the associate system with the surgical device. A network of surgical hubs may include a plurality of surgical hubs. Each hub may have one of a plurality of controllers, in which a first of the plurality of controllers is configured to distribute an execution of a process and data used by the process among at least a subset of the plurality of surgical hubs.

MOBILE WEARABLE MONITORING SYSTEMS

This document describes technology comprising of one or more wearable devices (i.e. attached or applied to limbs, body, head or other body extremities but also applicable to implanted or physiologically attachable systems). These systems have a means of enabling diagnostic or prognostic monitoring applicable to monitoring relevant parameters and corresponding analysis determination and characterisation applicable to the onset or detection of events or health conditions of interest. One application relates to sleep monitoring and associate EEG sensors.

Ar glasses with predictive control of external device based on event input

This disclosure concerns an interactive head-mounted eyepiece with an integrated processor for handling content for display and an integrated image source for introducing the content to an optical assembly through which the user views a surrounding environment and the displayed content, wherein the eyepiece includes predictive control of external device based on an event input.

Enhanced NEF function, MEC and 5G integration

Methods, devices, and systems for third party edge cloud service providers (CSPs) to provide edge computing services to network service providers. The edge computing service is initialized in a network. Network information services of the network are discovered. A location of a cloud resource in the network may be dynamically changed. User plane traffic is steered toward the location of the cloud resource. In some embodiments, initializing the edge computing service includes transmitting an identity of a valid user and a data network name to a network function virtualization management and organization system, or transmitting a user subscription list to a network exposure function. In some embodiments, dynamically changing the location of a cloud resource and steering user plane traffic toward the location of the cloud resource includes determining a number of users of an edge application at a location, and a network requirement of the edge application.

Systems and methods for releveled bump planes for chiplets

An integrated circuit and a method for designing an IC wherein the base or host chip is bonded to smaller chiplets via DBI technology. The bonding of chip to chiplet creates an uneven or multi-level surface of the overall chip requiring a releveling for future bonding. The uneven surface is built up with plating of bumps and subsequently releveled with various methods including planarization.

Methods and systems for determining spatial patterns of biological targets in a sample

The present disclosure provides methods and assay systems for use in spatially encoded biological assays, including assays to determine a spatial pattern of abundance, expression, and/or activity of one or more biological targets across multiple sites in a sample. In particular, the biological targets comprise proteins, and the methods and assay systems do not depend on imaging techniques for the spatial information of the targets. The present disclosure provides methods and assay systems capable of high levels of multiplexing where reagents are provided to a biological sample in order to address tag the sites to which reagents are delivered; instrumentation capable of controlled delivery of reagents; and a decoding scheme providing a readout that is digital in nature.
