The provided is an integrated multi-parameter (pressure, temperature, proximity) sensor based on optoelectronic integration and a fabrication method thereof. The sensor includes a flexible optical waveguide based on an optical mechanism and a flexible interdigitated electrode film based on an electrical mechanism and wound around the flexible optical waveguide, where the flexible optical waveguide is formed by inserting two optical fibers into a silicone tube, with the two optical fibers spaced apart from each other. The sensor achieves self-decoupled, crosstalk-free sensing of three parameters (pressure, temperature, proximity) through photoelectric-integrated multi-dimensional response signals. The sensor measures pressure via optical waveguide attenuation in the form of light intensity, measures temperature via the thermoresistive effect of the electrode in the form of resistance, and measures object proximity via the fringing electric field between the interdigitated electrodes in the form of capacitance.

Methods, apparatuses, and systems for protecting privacy are described. In an example, a first party encrypts a first data set, and sends a single-encrypted full data set to a second party. The second party re-encrypts the single-encrypted full data set to obtain a double-encrypted full data set, obtains a single-encrypted sampling data set, and sends the single-encrypted sampling data set to the first party. The first party encrypts the single-encrypted sampling data set to obtain a double-encrypted sampling data set, determines an intersection of the double-encrypted full data set and the double-encrypted sampling data set, performs upsampling on a complement other than the intersection in the double-encrypted sampling data set to obtain a noise-added intersection, and sends an element index of the noise-added intersection to the second party. The second party determines related information of common data based on the element index.

The present invention provides a method for planning a shortest possible three-dimensional path for autonomous flying robots to traverse from one location to the other in a geographical region, including translating a three-dimensional (3D) environment, discretizing the 3D environment into a graph of many grid cells or nodes, employing a modified any-angle path planning algorithm to calculate non-uniform traversal cost of each grid cell and by averaging the total traversal costs along the path to shorten the corresponding computation time, whilst incorporating operational costs other than the traversal cost specific to the autonomous flying robots to be traversed. The shortest possible path found by the present method does not only consider the path length, but also takes different costs of traversing and operating the flying robots into account, which increases its feasibility and flexibility to be applied in a wide variety of situations and technological areas.
