    摘要: A thin-film semitransparent photovoltaic device can include: a transparent substrate; a front electrode including a transparent and electrically conductive material, arranged on the transparent substrate; one or more photoactive layers referred to as absorbers; one back electrode including a stack of at least one metal conductive layer in contact with the absorber and of a metal barrier layer deposited uniformly over the whole of the metal conductive layer; a metal contact pickup layer; and a contact pickup region (10). The thickness of the metal barrier layer is greater than 5% of the thickness of the metal conductive layer and is greater than 5 nm.

    摘要: An electronic fitness device comprises an optical transmitter, a first lens, an optical receiver, and a second lens. The optical transmitter is operable to transmit an optical signal. The first lens covers at least a portion of the optical transmitter and is operable to direct the optical signal into the skin of a user in a first direction outward from a center of the electronic fitness device. The optical receiver is operable to receive optical signals modulated by the skin of the user and to generate a photoplethysmogram (PPG) signal resulting from the optical signal. The second lens covers at least a portion of the optical receiver and is operable to receive a modulated optical signal from the skin of the user in a second direction inward toward the center of the electronic fitness device and to direct the modulated optical signal toward the optical receiver.

    摘要: A shot tracking and feedback system is disclosed that uses a camera to track a shot fired from a weapon and a moving target, such as a clay target. Radar may be used in conjunction with the camera to track the shot and the moving target. Tracking the moving target and the shot allows for determination of the paths of the shot and the target to determine and provide performance feedback, such as whether the shot was above or below the target and/or to the left or right of the target. The performance feedback and additional information may be provided on a display of the system or a user device having a display (e.g., watch, smartphone, etc.). A user may utilize the presented information to improve shooting accuracy.

    摘要: A marine sonar device comprises a display, a sonar element, and a processing element. The display displays sonar images. The sonar element generates a sonar beam during a ping and presents transducer signals. The processing element is configured to instruct the sonar element to generate the sonar beam at a first frequency during a first ping, receive a first transducer signal resulting from received reflections of the sonar beam at the first frequency, filter the first transducer signal to exclude frequencies other than the first frequency, instruct the sonar element to generate the sonar beam at a second frequency during a second ping, the second frequency being different from the first frequency, receive a second transducer signal resulting from received reflections of the sonar beam at the second frequency, and filter the second transducer signal to exclude frequencies other than the second frequency.

    摘要: A navigation device is disclosed that provides navigational guidance to boats needing to cross a boundary line at a milestone event time. Port and starboard laylines and guidelines may be displayed with the boundary line using wind direction data. The port and starboard layline angles may change with the wind direction, while their lengths may represent a distance traversed by the boat tacking at the port and starboard layline angles for a target time period at a target speed. A predictor line may be displayed extending from the boat in the direction in which the boat is traveling and may have a length indicating a distance traversed by the boat at its current speed until the milestone event time. The predictor line length and color may provide feedback regarding whether the boat will cross the boundary too early or too late given its current speed and direction.

    摘要: Various techniques are described that relate to the manner in which marine devices may generate and display a water depth contour map while navigating a body of water. The contour map includes contour lines associated with determined contour line data that indicate geolocations of underwater terrain existing at depths of the body of water specified by the contour lines. A boundary enclosing a region of interest for the body of water may be determined and the contour map may include contour lines determined using the determined contour line data within the region of interest. The boundary may correspond to a natural shoreline along the perimeter of a body of water or a portion of the body of the water. The boundary corresponding to a shoreline may be automatically identified based on a stored map by identifying geographic locations along the perimeter of the body of water.

    摘要: Techniques are provided for implementing a system that can perform a range estimation of a target object at power levels both below and above an pre-defined power threshold. In embodiments, the system first performs a lower-power measurement, which may be sufficient to estimate the range to the object. If the low-power measurement is unsuccessful, the system then performs a fault check to ensure proper operation of the device. If the fault check is passed, the system may then perform a high-power measurement of the range to the object. Results may be provided to a user by a visual display.

    摘要: A wearable electronic device including a housing including a watch face, a protective material, a display, a touch panel comprising a plurality of touch sensors, a first watch hand, a first watch hand actuation apparatus, a memory, and a processor. In embodiments, the processor is configured to receive a touch signal from at least one of the plurality of touch sensors, determine a position of the first watch hand, identify a signal threshold of a touch sensor by selecting one of a plurality of signal thresholds stored in the memory, and identify a touch input received by the touch sensor once the touch signal received from the corresponding touch sensor exceeds the selected signal threshold.
