20140105386 | COMPUTING GENUS-2 CURVES USING GENERAL ISOGENIES - An Igusa class polynomial over rational numbers is computed from a set of Igusa class polynomials modulo a set of small primes. The set of Igusa class polynomials modulo a set of small primes is computed by finding all of the maximal curves in the isogeny class for each of the small primes. In particular, for each prime number in a set of prime numbers, a curve in the isogeny class for the prime number is identified, for example through a random search. Given a curve in this isogeny class, isogenies of general degree are applied to the identified curve, until an initial maximal curve, i.e., a curve with a maximal endomorphism ring, is found in this isogeny class. After an initial maximal curve in the isogeny class is found, all other maximal curves in this isogeny class are found by applying isogenies of general degree to the initial maximal curve. This set of maximal curves for the set of prime numbers defines set of Igusa class polynomials modulo the small primes. A Chinese remainder approach is then applied to construct an Igusa class polynomial over the rational numbers from the computed set of Igusa class polynomials modulo the small primes. | 04-17-2014 |

A test subject is positioned in front of the patient display a known distance therefrom, and a camera captures an image of the test subject's eyes, to allow gaze direction determination to be performed. The captured images are displayed to a clinician user by a controlling test application, the clinician making a determination based on the images as to whether the test subject saw a target graphic or video when it was displayed. The clinician user then makes an appropriate input into the controlling test application, which also logs the position at which the target image was displayed. By displaying target graphics at multiple locations on the screen and logging the clinician inputs, the controlling test application is able to build up a plot of the peripheral vision field of the test subject. This plot can then be graphically displayed to the clinician user, and stored with the test results for future clinical use. | 06-21-2012 |

20090135140 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR ACCURATE LIFT-DETECTION OF AN INPUT DEVICE - Various systems and methods are employed for lift-detection. Beam triangulation can be used, and in one embodiment, an optical lift detection module is separate from the optical tracking module. In one embodiment, a capacitive lift detection technique is used. A capacitor is built into the bottom case of the mouse. When the mouse is resting on a surface, the surface material serves as a dielectric for the capacitor, while air serves as the dielectric when the mouse is lifted. This dielectric change leads to a change in the capacitance value, leading to detection of lift. In one embodiment, a capacitor with an easily compressable material inserted between the two electrodes is used. In another embodiment, a mechanical plunger with an elastic membrane is used for lift detection. Lift detection can be tunable and/or customizable.

20160043754 | SINGLE TONE RF SIGNAL GENERATOR - A single tone RF signal generator and a method of generating a single tone RF signal. The single tone RF signal generator includes an output and a power amplifier that has an input. The power amplifier is operable to receive an RF signal including a first harmonic corresponding to a single tone signal to be produced by the signal generator. The power amplifier is also operable to amplify the RF signal. The power amplifier is further operable to provide the amplified RF signal to the output of the signal generator. The single tone RF signal generator further includes a feedback circuit connected between the output of the signal generator and the input of the power amplifier. The feedback circuit is configured to add one or more predistortion harmonics to the RF signal received by the power amplifier for cancelling harmonics in the amplified RF signal provided by the power amplifier. | 02-11-2016 |
