Disclosed herein are techniques for obtaining location data for a sensor fusion device. The techniques include transmitting or receiving a signal from or to the sensor fusion device. The techniques also include obtaining angle-based location data, based on the signal and on an angle-based location finding technique. The techniques also include determining location data for the sensor fusion device or an auxiliary device associated with the sensor fusion device, based on the angle-based location data.

Multi-sensor location data tracking

A method and apparatus is provided for providing local screen data of a source device, such as a personal computer, to a sink device, such as a television, game console, or home theatre system, at a rate determined by the sink device. In one example, the method and apparatus responds to requests from the sink device to provide local screen data by serving the local screen data to the sink device from a circular buffer. The local screen data is written to the circular buffer in FIFO order based on the requests from the sink device, and read from the circular buffer based on the requests.

Method and apparatus for providing local screen data to a sink device

An architecture for a power supply with an integrated UPS control system to which generic batteries may be connected. Such an architecture greatly reduces the overall cost, complexity, size and inefficiency of providing uninterruptible power to a device such as a computer system.

Power supply with integrated uninterruptible power control

A method for providing an integrated circuit with an option of increasing performance after fabrication is disclosed. The method includes performing a performance increase operation which increases the performance of the integrated circuit from a first performance level to a second performance level after the integrated circuit is fabricated.

Method of providing a customer with increased integrated circuit performance

A configurable performance module for use in an integrated circuit. The configurable performance module includes a performance control circuit which controls a performance level of the integrated circuit to enable changing the performance level of the integrated circuit from a first performance level to a second performance level after manufacturing of the integrated circuit is complete.

Integrated circuit having after market modifiable performance

The invention dynamically compensates for differences in data rates. In one embodiment, the status of an input buffer is monitored and used to change the number of oversamples within a frame. In another embodiment, a high frequency clock in the system is used to stall the codec for one clock. In both ways, distortion due to differences in data rates is reduced.

Variable codec frame length

The invention dynamically compensates for differences in data rates for multistreamed systems. Any or all of the streams in a multistreamed system may be individually compensated at one time. In one embodiment, the status of an input buffer is monitored and used to change the number of oversamples within a frame of one of the number of streams. In another embodiment, a high frequency clock in the system is used to stall one of the streams for one or more clock cycles. In both ways, distortion due to differences in data rates is reduced.

Variable code frame length for multistream applications

A multimedia system including an audio/video decoder/decompresser for decoding/decompressing a compressed encoded audio/video data stream to generate video images for display and audio signals for audible reproduction. The multimedia system includes an integrated system and video decoder with an audio/video synchronization circuit for substantially synchronizing the display of video images with audio playback. An audio presentation time stamp (APTS) is detected in the compressed/coded audio data stream in the integrated system and video decoder and stored in a data latch. The compressed/coded audio data stream is fed to an audio decoder which decodes/decompresses the audio data and outputs and audio signal. The audio decoder detects when audio data corresponding to an APTS had been output and sets a corresponding flag. The flag indicates to the integrated system and video decoder that a corresponding audio segment had been decoded/decompressed and output. The integrated system and video decoder then synchronizes the video output with the audio output by repeating or skipping frames of video data.
