| 20100324910 | TECHNIQUES TO PROVIDE A STANDARD INTERFACE TO A SPEECH RECOGNITION PLATFORM - Techniques and systems to provide speech recognition services over a network using a standard interface are described. In an embodiment, a technique includes accepting a speech recognition request that includes at least audio input, via an application program interface (API). The speech recognition request may also include additional parameters. The technique further includes performing speech recognition on the audio according to the request and any specified parameters; and returning a speech recognition result as a hypertext protocol (HTTP) response. Other embodiments are described and claimed. | 12-23-2010 |

| 20080303780 | DRIVING METHODS AND CIRCUIT FOR BI-STABLE DISPLAYS - The disclosure is directed toward driving methods and a driving circuit which are particularly suitable for bi-stable displays. In certain embodiments, methods provide the fastest and most pleasing appearance to the desired image while maintaining the optimal image quality over the life expectancy of an electrophoretic display device. | 12-11-2008 |
| 20090096745 | APPROACH TO ADJUST DRIVING WAVEFORMS FOR A DISPLAY DEVICE - The present invention is directed to methods for adjusting or selecting driving waveforms in order to achieve a consistent optical performance of a display device. When a method of the present invention is applied, even if there are changes in the display medium due to temperature variation, photo-exposure or aging, the optical performance can be maintained at a desired level. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20100194789 | PARTIAL IMAGE UPDATE FOR ELECTROPHORETIC DISPLAYS - The present invention is directed to methods for partial image updates. Such methods provide the display controller the ability to update selected areas of an image that require updating and leave other areas unchanged. The methods also allow for multiple waveforms to be used for specific regions, giving the display the capability of updating each region with its own waveform. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100196651 | MOLD MANUFACTURING OF AN OBJECT COMPRISING A FUNCTIONAL ELEMENT, TRANSFERING PROCESS AND OBJECT - This invention relates to an object having a functional element embedded in its top surface and processes for its manufacturing. The object is in general formed by molding, stamping, lamination or a combination thereof. The functional element is includes any electrical or mechanical elements that are capable of performing a function. | 08-05-2010 |
| 20100271407 | REFLECTIVE DISPLAY DEVICES WITH LUMINANCE ENHANCEMENT FILM - The present invention is directed to reflective display devices with a luminance enhancement structure on its viewing side and at least an auxiliary layer and/or edge sealing. The structure increases the overall reflectance by reducing the total internal reflection, and as a result, the brightness of a display device is increased. | 10-28-2010 |

| 20100074314 | Margin Test Methods And Circuits - Described are methods and circuits for margin testing digital receivers. These methods and circuits prevent margins from collapsing in response to erroneously received data, and can thus be used in receivers that employ historical data to reduce intersymbol interference (ISI). Some embodiments detect receive errors for input data streams of unknown patterns, and can thus be used for in-system margin testing. Such systems can be adapted to dynamically alter system parameters during device operation to maintain adequate margins despite fluctuations in the system noise environment due to e.g. temperature and supply-voltage changes. Also described are methods of plotting and interpreting filtered and unfiltered error data generated by the disclosed methods and circuits. Some embodiments filter error data to facilitate pattern-specific margin testing. | 03-25-2010 |
| 20100266006 | SIGNALING SYSTEM WITH SELECTIVELY-INHIBITED ADAPTIVE EQUALIZATION - An integrated circuit having a receiver that selectively inhibits incoming data from being used to update adaptively generated controls. Sampling circuitry generates a plurality of samples of an incoming signal. Control circuitry generates an inhibit signal in either a first state or a second state according to whether the plurality of samples meets a randomness criterion. Tap weight update circuitry receives the inhibit signal from the control circuitry and updates a plurality of equalizer tap weights based on the plurality of samples if the inhibit signal is in the first state. The tap weight update circuitry refrains from updating the plurality of equalizer tap weights based on the plurality of samples if the inhibit signal is in the second state. | 10-21-2010 |
