Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) transfers information across the World Wide Web by routing packets of data from the web’s most available servers to a client, whose browser then builds a webpage (or streams media) from those packets. MPEG’s Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), Apple’s HTTP Live Streaming, Microsoft Smooth...

Invention Description Conventional electrode drying processes act as a massive bottleneck in lithium-ion battery (LIB) manufacturing. Current processes typically rely on large convection ovens followed by vacuum post-drying to remove residual solvent and moisture. These steps are energy-intensive, require a large factory footprint, and add complexity...

Invention Description Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) translate continuous analog signals into discrete digital numbers. Because modern computing relies on digital data, which is easier to store, manipulate, and transmit, ADCs are the bridge connecting the physical world to electronics. Better ADCs are vital for supporting next-gen technologies...

Invention Description Because of their advantageous weight, strength, and durability properties, complex composite materials are increasingly replacing traditional metal and alloy components in many industries. Testing of these composites is necessary for detecting manufacturing flaws, which are often critical but invisible, and ensuring structural...

Invention Description Globally, wildfire frequency and severity are increasing, creating significant challenges for rapid detection and suppression, especially in remote or difficult-to-access areas. Traditional suppression methods, such as ground crews, retardants and manned aircraft can be costly, labor-intensive, and face limitations with access...

Invention Description Accurate classification of brain tumors from MRI scans is critical for diagnosis and treatment planning, but distinguishing between tumor types can be challenging due to similarities in imaging features. Traditional deep learning models often require substantial computational resources and may struggle to efficiently capture complex...

Invention Description Materials used in space missions must withstand extreme conditions such as radiation exposure, thermal cycling, and mechanical stress while maintaining long-term performance and reliability. Traditional polymers can degrade under these harsh environments and are often difficult to recycle or reuse, limiting sustainability in long-duration...

Invention Description Navigating complex and obstacle-rich environments is a major challenge for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), especially in spaces where GPS signals are unavailable or prior environmental maps do not exist. Traditional drones are highly vulnerable to collisions, which can disrupt navigation, damage hardware, and limit their effectiveness...

Invention Description Long-range imaging systems are often affected by atmospheric turbulence, which can introduce blur, distortion, and reduced image quality. Traditional turbulence simulators typically ignore depth-dependent variations, limiting their ability to accurately represent real-world imaging conditions. This lack of realism can hinder the...

Invention Description Soft exosuits have the potential to improve mobility and reduce physical strain during walking, but providing effective assistance across different users and walking conditions remains challenging. Traditional learning control systems often require extensive tuning, large amounts of training data, or simulation environments that...
