HOTWORD DETECTION ON MULTIPLE DEVICES

An invention allows multiple devices to detect a specific word spoken by a user. The first device receives the spoken word and calculates the likelihood that it is the specific word. A second device also calculates this likelihood, and both devices compare their results to decide if further speech recognition processing is needed.

SECURE LIVE MIGRATION OF TRUSTED EXECUTION ENVIRONMENT VIRTUAL MACHINES USING SMART CONTRACTS

A new technology allows secure transfer of special virtual machines to different computers using smart contracts. It works by sending a request to move the virtual machine, receiving offers from other computers, and choosing the best one based on price. The virtual machine is then moved automatically to the chosen computer and the transfer details are recorded on a blockchain.

Complementary 2(N)-bit redundancy for single event upset prevention

An integrated circuit is designed with a special method called complementary 2(N)-bit redundancy to prevent single event upsets (SEU). This method involves storing a data value and its complementary value in separate storage elements, along with a multi-bit storage element to hold both values. The circuit also includes voting logic to detect and correct errors in the data values, and can adjust its criteria based on the type of SEU failures detected.

ROBOT FOR GRIPPING AN OBJECT USING DUAL FINGERS AND OBJECT GRIP METHOD THEREOF

This invention is a robot with two fingers that can grip objects. Each finger has a light emitter, a camera, and a polarization filter to help detect and grip objects. The robot is controlled by a processor that uses images from the cameras to identify objects and adjust the fingers to grip them within a specific range.

REAL-TIME SYSTEM FOR SPOKEN NATURAL STYLISTIC CONVERSATIONS WITH LARGE LANGUAGE MODELS

This invention allows people to have natural conversations with a computer using spoken language. Unlike other methods that only use text, this system lets users talk to the computer like they would to a person. It works by converting spoken words into text, analyzing the emotion behind them, and generating a spoken response that sounds like a real conversation.

SMART MIRROR STYLING SYSTEM AND METHOD

A smart mirror system uses a camera and imaging algorithms to create a body mask showing a person's size and shape. Artificial intelligence algorithms then suggest stylish clothing items from a database based on the user's preferences and body data. The system displays scaled images of the recommended clothing items on a mirror display, allowing the person to virtually try them on before making a purchase.

BRAIN ACTIVITY MONITORING BASED MESSAGING AND COMMAND SYSTEM

A system has been created that uses brain activity monitoring to send messages or commands to devices. Users generate signals by thinking about specific things, which are then used to determine the message or command. This technology allows for control of devices based on brain activity without needing direct correlation between thoughts and commands.

MODIFIED IMMUNE CELLS HAVIG ENHANCED FUNCTION AND METHODS FOR SCREENING THE SAME

Gene-edited modified immune cells, like T cells, are created with added receptors that target specific antigens, along with changes in their genetic makeup to boost their function. These enhanced immune cells can be used for treatments, and methods for screening them are also developed to identify those with improved immune responses. The invention focuses on improving the effectiveness, memory, and longevity of T cells engineered to fight diseases.

CHIMERIC RECEPTOR PROTEINS AND USES THEREOF

Fusion proteins have been created to enhance cell signaling when binding to antigens. These proteins consist of different components that help them respond better to antigens, even those with lower levels on target cells like solid tumors. Scientists have also developed host cells that can produce these fusion proteins, along with methods and compositions involving them.
