20120105280 | SYNCHRONIZED MEASUREMENT SAMPLING IN A NAVIGATION DEVICE - In a hot start mode of a navigation device, the process of obtaining pseudo-range measurements can be synchronized with the processes of tracking navigation satellites and initializing a positioning unit to compute a position, velocity, and time (PVT) solution of the navigation device. This can influence a time instant at which the pseudo-range measurements are determined and a time to first fix, depending on whether the navigation device is in a strong or weak signal environment. A measurement unit can receive a first indication that a predetermined number of navigation satellites have been acquired and that navigation signals transmitted by the acquired navigation satellites have been locked. The measurement unit can receive a second indication that the positioning unit has been initialized to compute the PVT solution. In response to receiving both indications, the measurement unit can obtain the pseudo-range measurements. Accordingly, the positioning unit can compute the PVT solution. | 05-03-2012 |

20160033697 | MICROFABRICATION - Microfabrication processes and apparatuses for fabricating microstructures on a substrate are disclosed. The substrate has a current diffraction grating pattern formed by current surface modulations over at least a portion of the substrate's surface that exhibit a substantially uniform grating linewidth over the surface portion. An immersion depth of the substrate in a fluid for patterning the substrate is gradually changed so that different points on the surface portion are immersed for different immersion times. The fluid changes the linewidth of the surface modulations at each immersed point on the surface portion by an amount determined by the immersion time of that point, thereby changing the current diffraction grating pattern to a new diffraction grating pattern formed by new surface modulations over the surface portion that exhibit a spatially varying grating linewidth that varies over the surface portion. | 02-04-2016 |
20160033784 | Optical Components - Various optical components are disclosed herein, which have diffraction gratings formed by modulations of at least portions of their outer surfaces. The gratings exhibit gradually varying characteristics that vary over the surface portion so as to gradually vary the manner in which the incident light is diffracted at different points on the surface portion. Display systems incorporating such optical components are also disclosed. | 02-04-2016 |
20160035539 | Microfabrication - A microfabrication apparatus for fabricating a microstructure on a substrate is disclosed and comprises a partitioning system arranged to provide an aperture, a particle source that can generate a beam of particles for patterning the substrate and a substrate holder which supports the substrate. Relative motion is effected between the aperture and the substrate over a portion of the substrate's surface so that different points on the surface portion are exposed at different times. Whilst that motion is ongoing, one or more exposure conditions are varied so that the different points are subject to different exposure conditions. Corresponding microfabrication processes and products obtained thereby are also disclosed. | 02-04-2016 |
