五角大樓讓無人潛艇浮出水面

人:美國
事:五角大樓讓無人潛艇浮出水面
時:2016/4
地:暗示可能將此類潛艇用於中國南海(那裏大部分區域是淺海)。
物:開發無人駕駛潛艇。這個術語已經成為美國阻止中國雄霸亞太區計劃的一部分

摘要:
「美國國防部揭開類似無人駕駛潛艇這些新科技產品的面紗,其中某些產品可能在2020年之前投入使用。這麼做的目的旨在不斷顯示自身的軍事優勢,試圖阻止中國和俄羅斯這樣的對手。」

Note:
The concept of the unmanned submarine comes from monitoring fishery resources, exploration and exploitation of the oceans and their biodiversity, etc. The unmanned self-propelled submarine vehicle was applied from 1984 by CNEXO (English: Centre National Pour L’exploitation Des Oceans). Now the USA develops many kind of weapons for threating China or Russia. For example, the patent US 20150375586 discloses a combined submersible vessel and unmanned aerial vehicle that has a propulsion system propelling the flying submarine in both airborne flight and underwater operation.

PS.
1.Unmanned submarine vehicle  
ABSTRACT
An unmanned self-propelled submarine vehicle is provided with a material exchanger-container having a vertical axis of symmetry aligned with both the vehicle's center of gravity and its center of volume. The exchanger-container has a moveable diaphragm which divides the interior into two compartments, a lower ballast compartment equipped with an unloading apparatus and an upper compartment adapted to receive collected material. Ballast is unloaded during material loading to maintain the weight of the vehicle constant during loading.

  
2.Combined submersible vessel and unmanned aerial vehicle
ABSTRACT
A combined submersible vessel and unmanned aerial vehicle preferably includes a body structure, at least one wing structure, at least one vertical stabilizer structure, and at least one horizontal stabilizer structure. A propulsion system is coupled to the body structure and is configured to propel the flyingsubmarine in both airborne flight and underwater operation. Preferably, the propulsion system includes a motor, a gearbox coupled to the motor and configured to receive power generated by the motor and provide variable output power, a drive shaft coupled to the gearbox and configured to transfer the variable output power provided by the gearbox, and a propeller coupled to the drive shaft and configured to accept power transferred to it from the drive shaft. The propeller is further configured to rotate and propel the flying submarine in both an airborne environment and in an underwater environment.

Samsaung取得高科技智慧型隱形眼鏡的專利

人:Samsaung
事:取得高科技智慧型隱形眼鏡的專利,雖然這些專利已在 2014 年通過
時:2016/4
地:USPTO
物:這款隱形眼鏡可以將畫面直接投射到穿戴者的眼球上。透過此項技術,未來 AR(擴增實境)將直接投影到使用者的眼球上,讓整體使用更具真實感,大幅提高 AR 的體驗。此外,這款隱形眼鏡還擁有相機、天線及多種動作感應器,並且可以透過「眨眼」控制,進行照片拍攝。而隱形眼鏡也可以連到個人的智慧手機上,進行簡易的資料運算。

摘要:
除了三星有在做智慧隱形眼鏡之外,Google 也已經申請兩項智慧型眼鏡的專利。其功能主要是醫療用途,透過隱形眼鏡來收集淚液,並藉由此偵測血糖,讓糖尿病患者更方便測得血糖,這和三星的發展方向完全不同。三星申請智慧隱形眼鏡專利的時間,和 Google 在美國通過偵測血糖的隱形眼鏡專利的時間相同,都是在 2014 年。

Note:
In the future we can be like a spy, and wear contact lenses in the crowd to monitor anybody and anywhere; or as the god of gamblers movie, man wears contact lenses with powerful multi-functions to win the gambling.

PS.
United States Patent 8,833,934  Google
Devices and methods for a contact lens with an outward facing light source 
Abstract
A body-mountable device can include a transparent material and a substrate at least partially embedded in the transparent material. The transparent material can have a mounting surface and a surface opposite the mounting surface. A light source can be disposed on the substrate and configured to emit light through the surface opposite the mounting surface. The light source can be controlled by circuitry disposed on the substrate. The circuitry can be configured to receive modulation instructions and modulate the light emitted by the light source based on the modulation instructions.

於36年後找到萊特兄弟飛機專利文獻

人:USPTO
事:萊特兄弟就其飛機發明申請專利,而申請表卻離奇失蹤36年,至日前美國當局才於1600公里外1個石灰岩洞找回這份重要文件。
時:2016/4
地:U.S.A
物:萊特兄弟於1903年初、首次成功動力飛行前9個月,向當局遞交了專利申請。該份編號為821393、項目名為「飛行器」(Flying Machine)的著名專利申請,其後一直被保存在首都華盛頓國家檔案局的「珍藏地下庫」(treasure vault)內。但直到當局於1980年再次翻查時,發現文件消失無蹤。


摘要:
成功進行首次動力飛行的美國萊特兄弟,曾就其飛機發明申請專利,該份申請表一直被珍藏在華盛頓國家檔案局中。不過,當局於2000年起開始尋找一系列失蹤文件,至3月底在堪薩斯城外1個石灰岩洞發現該份申請表,竟藏於1疊近5公尺高的文件當中,即時被送回國家檔案局。當局暫未知為何申請表會遠在1600公里外的山洞內,但相信是當年的人為失誤。而這份文件將會於5月20日起,放到國家檔案局博物館展覽。

Note:
When Wright brothers invented the flying machine in 1906, Dr. Sun Yat-sen with the revolutionary army for democracy fought the Qing Empire. When USA performs the patent act, China performs civil war for overthrowing corrupt regime. Now, civil aircraft, fighter aircraft or space shuttle is developed with new technology. The many countries comprising China perform patent act that is popular for everywhere.

隔空操控三星Gear VR

人:三星VR
事:第三代 Gear VR
時:2016/3
地:USPTO
物:用过手机VR头盔的用户都应该清楚,手机VR头盔最不方便的地方就是操控,由于VR头盔不能实现向手机触屏那样的控制,只能通过头部的摆动、以及蓝牙手柄来控制,而且想要在头盔内切换App十分困难,而三星的这项隔空操控专利会让Gear VR的操控更加随心所欲,可以带来VR体验上的提升。

摘要:
美国专利局在二月底通过了一项三星的专利申请,三星的这款Gear VR在头盔的左侧上方配备了一个传感器模组,传感器模组可以隔空识别用户的手势操作,并与Gear VR的中的手机进行反馈,也就是你无需触屏/按键即可操作Gear VR。通过此功能对Gear VR中的手机进行任何触控操作,而且还可以实现快捷调节音量大小。

SENSOR BASED UI IN HMD INCORPORATING LIGHT TURNING ELEMENT
Abstract

A head-mounted display (HMD) system includes a head-mounted frame that encases a portable electronic device (PED) that includes a touch-less sensor, and the PED. The frame includes: a front slot to hold the PED and maintain contact with the PED's display face; an entry via dimensioned to prevent blockage of the sensor's field of view; and a light turning element positioned to redirect the sensor's field of view through an exit via in the frame and into open space outside of the frame. The PED includes: the sensor to detect a touch-less gesture; an image display to display image content on the PED's front display face; and processing circuitry configured to change modes from handheld mode to HMD operation mode based on a determination that the PED is encased by the frame and to select the image content based on input signals received from the sensor and the mode.

晶電VS光鋐

人:晶電VS光鋐(可成集團旗下,4956)
事:控告光鋐侵犯晶電4項紅外線LED專利
時:2016/3
地:台灣智財法院
物:紅外線LED應用在安控、虹膜辨識以及汽車夜視功能上,以感測、辨識功能為大宗,隨著功率大小不同,單顆報價落差極大,約當每顆新台幣1~10元之間,部分製程與四元高亮度LED晶粒(Ultra-High Brightness LED Chip)相同。晶電為全球第1大紅光LED製造廠,高亮度紅光LED也是晶電主要的獲利來源。

摘要:
晶電控告光鋐科技之LED產品如型號「BN-D4242J-A3」、「BN-D4242E-A3」等紅外線LED晶粒侵害晶元光電所擁有包括中華民國發明第141155號、第170789號、第202662號及第I283031號等4項發明專利。
據悉,光鋐已經收到晶電的訴訟文件,不過高層認為沒有侵權疑慮,會主張權利,並依照法律訴訟程序進行。

Note:
2005年底,晶電又合併了國聯光電。當時,晶電與國聯分別為國內前兩大LED上游磊晶廠,合併後晶電產品線更加完整,綜效立見,成為全球最大的四元LED廠商,也躍居台灣藍光LED中上游龍頭。合併完成後,國聯最大股東萬海集團也成為晶電的第二大股東,僅次於原來的最大股東億光電子。由於晶電的很多下游客戶與億光有業務競爭關係,為了降低這些客戶的疑慮,億光把晶電的董座禮讓給萬海集團。

I283031 利用低熔點金屬結合化合物半導體與高熱導係數基板的方法
METHOD FOR INTEGRATING COMPOUND SEMICONDUCTOR WITH SUBSTRATE OF HIGH THERMAL CONDUCTIVITY
本發明提供一種結合化合物半導體與高熱導係數基板的方法。本發明運用了一低熔點金屬,因其可於低溫(約在200℃)下融成液態之導接層來進行導接製程。本發明方法包含:提供一化合物半導體結構,其包括一基板及一磊晶層形成於基板上。然後,形成一第一導接層於磊晶層上。選擇一高熱導係數基板,其熱導係數大於化合物半導體結構之基板。然後,形成一第二導接層於高熱導係數基板上。於一溫度,加壓化合物半導體結構之基板及高熱導係數基板,使得第一導接層及第二導接層接觸,以形成一合金導接層。

170789 具有非單晶相中間層之金屬鍵結發光二極體
一種具有非單晶相中間層之金屬鍵結發光二極體及其製法,該製法包含下列步驟:在一第一基板上形成一半導體疊層、一非單晶相中間層、一金屬鍵結層,構成一第一疊層構造;選擇一第二基板上;將第一疊層構造與該第二基板結合在一起,構成一第二疊層構造;以及移除該第一基板。

141155 發光二極體及其製造方法
本發明運用了一高導電性與高反射性之金屬以避免發出之光被基板吸收掉,以及採用可融化成液態之焊接層來進行焊接製程,因此可獲得較佳之導接性質同時可在較低的溫度下進行焊接製程。本發明係提供垂直堆疊之發光二極體晶粒結構,因此僅需要一單一之導線,可使得發光二極體的配線變得更容易施行,並且可以降低製造成本。此外,本發明可以大幅降低發光二極體晶粒之尺寸,且具有較佳之散熱效果,因此發光二極體的效能穩定性較佳且可以被應用於較高的電流強度之下。

202662 於非透明基板製造高發光效率元件的方法
一種於非透明基板製造高發光效率元件的方法,分別於一第一基板上形成一半導體磊晶層、一第一導電層、一反射層及一第一導接層;及於一第二基板上形成一第二導接層。以加溫加壓之方式將該第一及第二導接層接合後去除第一基板及形成一第二導電層後,即可製造有較佳發光效率及較佳散熱效率之發光元件。
