    Abstract: A bitline precharge system is provided for a semiconductor memory device. The bitline precharge system comprises a voltage comparator circuit to output a reference voltage signal based on an input wordline voltage supply level (VDDWL), and a periphery power supply voltage (VDDP) level. A voltage control circuit is electrically coupled to a periphery power supply and the voltage comparator circuit to output a precharge voltage (VDDM) level based on the reference voltage signal and the periphery power supply voltage (VDDP) level. A bitline precharge circuit is electrically coupled to the voltage control circuit and a plurality of bitlines of the memory device to precharge the plurality of bitlines based on the precharge voltage (VDDM) level in response to a precharge enable signal during one of a read operation to read data from the memory device and a write operation to write data from the memory device. Further, the at least one bitline is discharged from the precharge voltage (VDDM) level during at least one of the read operation or the write operation.

    Abstract: An untethered apparatus for performing inside-out device tracking based on visual-inertial simultaneous location and mapping (SLAM) includes a dynamic vision sensor (DVS) configured to output an asynchronous stream of sensor event data, an inertial measurement unit (IMU) sensor configured to collect IMU data associated with motion of the apparatus at a predetermined interval, a processor and a memory. The memory contains instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to accumulate DVS sensor output over a sliding time window, the sliding time window including the predetermined interval, apply a motion correction to the accumulated DVS sensor output, the motion correction based on the IMU data collected over the predetermined interval, generate an event-frame histogram of DVS sensor events based on the motion correction, and provide the event-frame histogram of the DVS sensor events and the IMU data to a visual inertial SLAM pipeline.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein provide a method for reducing power dissipation in a Static Random Access Memory (SRAM) device. The method includes determining, by the tracking circuit, whether at least one SRAM Bit-Cell discharges power from at least one BL exceeding a pre-defined voltage level required for a sense amplifier to perform a read operation. Furthermore, the method includes reducing, by the WL driver, the power discharged from the at least one BL by controlling a WL voltage power supply switch of the WL driver using a SAE signal and adjusting a pulse width of the at least one WL to pull down the at least one WL using a NMOS circuit when the at least one SRAM Bit-Cell discharges the power from the at least one BL exceeding the pre-defined voltage level.

    Abstract: A system for determining and tracking camera pose includes a dynamic vision sensor (DVS) configured to generate a current DVS image, an inertial measurement unit (IMU) configured to generate inertial data, and a memory. The memory is configured to store a 3-dimensional (3D) map of a known 3D environment. The system may also include a processor coupled to the memory. The processor is configured to initiate operations including determining a current camera pose for the DVS based on the current DVS image, the inertial data, the 3D map, and a prior camera pose.

    Abstract: A method of camera pose and plane estimation may include detecting a marker within a 3-dimensional (3D) environment by detecting, using a Dynamic Vision Sensor (DVS), a first plurality of light sources arranged in a known shape and blinking at a first frequency, wherein the known shape corresponds to the marker, determining an orientation and an identity of the marker based upon detecting, using the DVS, a second plurality of light sources corresponding to the marker and blinking at a second frequency different from the first frequency. A camera pose for the DVS may be determined based upon the known shape, the orientation, and the identity of the marker using the processor.

    Abstract: Autoregressive content rendering for temporally coherent video generation includes generating, by an autoencoder, a plurality of predicted images. The plurality of predicted images is fed back to the autoencoder network. The plurality of predicted images may be encoded by the autoencoder network to generate a plurality of encoded predicted images. The autoencoder network encodes a plurality of keypoint images to generate a plurality of encoded keypoint images. One or more predicted images of the plurality of predicted images are generated by the autoencoder network by decoding a selected encoded keypoint image of the plurality of encoded keypoint images with an encoded predicted image of the plurality of encoded predicted images of a prior iteration of the autoencoder network.
