HOLOGRAM PROJECTION SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE AND VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME

A system projects holograms inside a vehicle using a special setup. It has a controller that manages the entire process, a housing with holes on top, and a water storage area. A sprayer connected to the water casing creates a mist by spraying water through the holes. The system also includes a device that emits light to create holographic images in the mist. Together, these parts work to display various patterns and images for passengers to see.

DETECTING DEEPFAKE CONTENT

A method has been developed to find deepfake videos. It starts by analyzing the video and adding notes based on what is found. Then, different verification models are chosen based on these notes, including one that isn't specifically trained to spot deepfakes. The results from this model are compared to a known real video to see how they match. Finally, the outcomes from all the models are combined to figure out how likely it is that the video was made using deepfake technology.

Universal mRNA Vaccine to Treat Dementia-Causing Neurodegenerative Disorders

A new type of vaccine uses mRNA technology to help treat brain diseases that cause dementia, like Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. It works by creating antibodies that target and remove harmful proteins that misfold in the brain. These proteins include Aβ42, Tau, and α-Synuclein, which are linked to various neurodegenerative disorders. The vaccine is designed to generate specific parts of these proteins, called epitopes, to trigger an immune response. This approach aims to slow down or stop the progression of these serious conditions.

METHOD OF REDUCING UNDESIRED LIGHT INFLUENCE IN EXTREME ULTRAVIOLET EXPOSURE

A new method helps create patterns on surfaces using light. First, a special light-sensitive layer is placed on a surface, and then a transparent layer is added on top. This top layer lets extreme ultraviolet (EUV) light pass through but blocks deep ultraviolet (DUV) light. Next, the surface is exposed to EUV radiation, which goes through the top layer to affect the light-sensitive layer below. This process reduces unwanted light interference during pattern creation.

SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES WITH ELECTRICAL FUSES AND METHODS OF FABRICATING THE SAME

A semiconductor structure has two sides: a top surface and a bottom surface. On the top surface, there is a semiconductor device, while the bottom surface has a layer of metal. Two conductive paths, called vias, connect the metal layer to the top surface and run in parallel. An electrical fuse is placed above the semiconductor device and connects to these two conductive paths. This design helps improve the functionality and reliability of semiconductor devices.

DISCOVERY REFERENCE SIGNAL DESIGN FOR QUASI CO-LOCATION AND FRAME TIMING INFORMATION IN NEW RADIO USER EQUIPMENT

A new method helps in sending signals for synchronization in mobile networks. It starts by figuring out an index number for the signal based on its position and how many signals are being used. Then, it calculates a shift value to adjust this index number. Next, it determines the timing for when the signal should be sent. Finally, the signal is transmitted to user devices at the right time using radio technology.

SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF

A fin field effect transistor (Fin FET) is a type of semiconductor device that has a fin-shaped structure sticking out from an insulating layer on a substrate. This fin structure consists of different layers, including a well layer, an oxide layer, and a channel layer. A gate structure sits on top of part of the fin and runs in a direction that is perpendicular to the fin. The device also has a source and a drain, each with a special stressor layer that fits into cut-out sections of the fin, helping to improve performance. Lastly, there is a dielectric layer that connects the oxide layer and the stressor layer in these recessed areas.

FULL-COLOR uLED DISPLAY DEVICE WITHOUT ELECTRICAL CONTACT AND MASS TRANSFER

A new type of full-color μLED display device has been developed that doesn’t require direct electrical connections or complicated mass transfer processes. It features a lower transparent layer with driving electrodes and an upper layer with special optical structures. The display uses tiny μLED crystals that can emit red, green, and blue light to create full-color images. A control module sends signals to light up these crystals without needing to connect them directly to the driving electrodes. This design simplifies manufacturing, reduces production time, and lowers costs for creating μLED displays.

REDUCING SETUP TIME FOR ONLINE MEETINGS

An online meeting system helps users connect quickly when they want to start or join a meeting. When a user makes a request, a special screen appears that shows controls for the meeting. Before the user activates these controls, the system prepares the meeting by sharing necessary connection details. Once the user is ready and activates the controls, audio and video can be transmitted for the meeting. This process reduces the time it takes to set up an online meeting.

HAPTIC FEEDBACK SYSTEM AND METHODS

A wearable device uses a special fluid that changes its thickness when pressure is applied. This fluid is contained in specific areas of the device. When force is applied to these areas, it alters how the fluid behaves, making the device easier or harder to move in certain directions. This technology allows users to feel different sensations through the device. Overall, it enhances the experience by providing realistic feedback based on movement or interaction.
