Abstract: There is provided a control chip including a microcontroller unit (MCU), a bus arbiter, a first bus, a second bus, a void hardware, a cache controller, a flash controller and a flash memory, wherein the flash memory is recorded with a firmware. When the MCU does not receive an update instruction, the bus arbiter reads, according to a function command of the MCU, a function return value associated with the function command from the flash memory via the first bus, the cache controller and the flash controller. When the MCU receives the update instruction, the bus arbiter updates the firmware in the flash memory via the second bus and the flash controller, and the void hardware actively replies a void return value associated with the function command to the MCU to replace the function return value.

Abstract: An optical tracking device includes an optical detection module and a target component. The optical detection module includes an optical receiver. The target component includes a light penetrating body with at least one mark and movably disposed adjacent to the optical detection module. The target component allows an illumination beam penetrating into the light penetrating body, so that the optical detection module acquires a detection image containing a pattern of the mark for tracking a relative movement between the target component and the optical detection module.

Abstract: There is provided an optical encoding system including a photodiode array and a code disk opposite to each other. The code disk is arranged with multiple code slits at a ring area corresponding to the photodiode array. A length direction of each photodiode of the photodiode array has at least one deviation angle with respect to a length direction of the multiple code slits to reduce the total harmonic distortion in photocurrents.

Abstract: A game board device is provided for carrying and identifying game pieces that are divided into different piece types. The game board device includes a board, a plurality of optically identifying modules, and a processing module electrically coupled to the optically identifying modules. The optically identifying modules respectively correspond in position to detection regions of the board. Each of the optically identifying modules includes a light emitter that can emit light toward the corresponding detection region and a light receiver that can receive light reflected by the corresponding detection region. When any one of the detection regions is in an unoccupied mode, the corresponding optically identifying module can emit an unoccupied signal. When any one of the detection regions is in an occupied mode, the corresponding optically identifying module enables an identification signal that corresponds to the piece type of the corresponding game piece to be emitted therefrom.
