摘要:
Optical apparatus includes an image sensor and objective optics, which are configured to collect and focus optical radiation over a range of wavelengths along a common optical axis toward a plane of the image sensor. A dispersive element is positioned to spread the optical radiation collected by the objective optics so that different wavelengths in the range are focused along different, respective optical axes toward the plane.

A method includes receiving from multiple transducers respective signals including reflections of a transmitted signal from a target. An image of the target is produced irrespective of sparsity of the received signals, by computing transducer-specific frequency-domain coefficients for each of the received signals, deriving, from the transducer-specific frequency-domain coefficients, beamforming frequency-domain coefficients of a beamformed signal in which the reflections received from a selected direction relative to the transducers are emphasized, and reconstructing the image of the target at the selected direction based on the beamforming frequency-domain coefficients.

A method for decoding includes receiving channel inputs for respective bits of a super code word that includes at least first and second component code words having a shared group of bits. At least the first and second component code words are iteratively decoded, and, in response to recognizing that the first and second component code words contain errors only within the shared group of bits, the first and second component code words are jointly decoded.

A method for processing data includes receiving a temporal sequence of depth maps of a scene containing a humanoid form having a head. The depth maps include a matrix of pixels having respective pixel depth values. A digital processor processes at least one of the depth maps so as to find a location of the head and estimates dimensions of the humanoid form based on the location. The processor tracks movements of the humanoid form over the sequence using the estimated dimensions.

A communication system includes multiple communication nodes and a processor. The communication nodes are configured to communicate over a tropospheric scattering channel. The processor is configured to communicate with the communication nodes over a secondary communication network, different from the tropospheric scattering channel, so as to control communication of the communication nodes over the tropospheric scattering channel.

A method for processing data includes receiving a depth map of a scene containing a humanoid form. The depth map is processed so as to identify three-dimensional (3D) connected components in the scene, each connected component including a set of the pixels that are mutually adjacent and have mutually-adjacent depth values. Separate, first and second connected components are identified as both belonging to the humanoid form, and a representation of the humanoid form is generated including both of the first and second connected components.

A recovery unit for recovering data includes an antenna and a first wireless transceiver. The first wireless transceiver is configured to communicate via the antenna only with a second wireless transceiver of a storage unit that holds records associated with the data. When an event damaging at least some of the data occurs and the recovery unit is brought into proximity with the storage unit, the recovery unit receives the records from the storage unit for recovery of the data.

Embodiments of the invention provide apparatus and methods for interactive reality augmentation, including a 2-dimensional camera (36) and a 3-dimensional camera (38), associated depth projector and content projector (48), and a processor (40) linked to the 3-dimensional camera and the 2-dimensional camera. A depth map of the scene is produced using an output of the 3-dimensional camera, and coordinated with a 2-dimensional image captured by the 2-dimensional camera to identify a 3-dimensional object in the scene that meets predetermined criteria for projection of images thereon. The content projector projects a content image onto the 3-dimensional object responsively to instructions of the processor, which can be mediated by automatic recognition of user gestures.

A method for communication includes allocating in a memory of a host device a contiguous, cyclical set of buffers for use by a transport service instance on a network interface controller (NIC). First and second indices point respectively to a first buffer in the set to which the NIC is to write and a second buffer in the set from which a client process running on the host device is to read. Upon receiving at the NIC a message directed to the transport service instance and containing data to be pushed to the memory, the data are written to the first buffer that is pointed to by the first index, and the first index is advanced cyclically through the set. The second index is advanced cyclically through the set when the data in the second buffer have been read by the client process.
摘要:
A method includes, in a processor that executes instructions of program code, monitoring the instructions in a segment of a repetitive sequence of the instructions so as to construct a specification of register access by the monitored instructions. In response to detecting a branch mis-prediction in the monitored instructions, the specification is corrected so as to compensate for the branch mis-prediction. Execution of the repetitive sequence is parallelized based on the corrected specification.
