Patent number: 11910245Abstract: Systems and methods for transitioning a call between two devices are disclosed herein. An origin device for the call is determined based on a first position of an ultra-wideband (UWB) device. A destination device for the call is then determined based on a second position of the UWB device. The UWB device sends transition commands to both the origin device and the destination device, each transition command including an identifier of the other device. Using the identifier of the origin device, the destination device connects to the call the origin device is currently participating in. When the origin device detects that the destination device has connected to the call, the origin device disconnects from the call.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 2022Date of Patent: February 20, 2024Assignee: Meta Platforms Technologies, LLCInventors: Peter Andrew Matsimanis, Igor Gurovski, Pascal Alexander Bentioulis, Tahir Turan Caliskan, Per Ingemar Kristiansson, Per-Erik Bergstrom

Patent number: 11496790Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling a smart streaming device are disclosed herein. The smart streaming device is controlled based on a position of an ultra-wideband (UWB) device. Based on the position of the UWB device, one or more service events for the smart streaming device can be conducted. For example, a privacy mode of the smart streaming device can be enabled or disabled based on the position of the UWB device. In another example, a distance can be determined between the smart streaming device and the position of the UWB device. Based on the distance, an output configuration of the smart streaming device can be set, such as dynamically adjusting volume or text size on the smart streaming device.Type: GrantFiled: February 17, 2021Date of Patent: November 8, 2022Assignee: Meta Platforms Technologies, LLCInventors: Peter Andrew Matsimanis, Igor Gurovski, Pascal Bentioulis, Turan Caliskan, Per Kristiansson, Per-Erik Bergstrom

Patent number: 10326917Abstract: A monitoring camera is equipped with a touch sensor in a camera cover glass, which senses positions of objects touching or being close to the cover glass. The touch sensor aids the camera in separating image data depicting objects on the cover glass from image data depicting the monitored scene. This information may be used when choosing image capture settings, by indicating to the camera which image regions are less important to take into account, and to avoid false alarms which otherwise may occur when rain drops or insects on the cover glass are mistaken for events in the scene.Type: GrantFiled: May 19, 2016Date of Patent: June 18, 2019Assignee: AXIS ABInventors: Igor Gurovski, Thomas Ekdahl
