Patent number: 11754676Abstract: Various devices, systems and methods for performing targeted sleep tracking are presented herein. Multiple digital radar data streams from multiple antennas may be received. A direction optimization process may be performed to determine a first weighting and a second weighting. The first weighting may be applied to a first digital radar data stream. The second weighting may be applied to a second digital radar data stream. The weighted first digital radar data stream and the weighted second digital radar data stream may be combined to create a first directionally-targeted radar data stream.

Publication number: 20220390952Abstract: A computer-implemented method when executed by data processing hardware causes the data processing hardware to perform operations. The operations include detecting a candidate support surface at an elevation less than a current surface supporting a legged robot. A determination is made on whether the candidate support surface includes an area of missing terrain data within a portion of an environment surrounding the legged robot, where the area is large enough to receive a touchdown placement for a leg of the legged robot. If missing terrain data is determined, at least a portion of the area of missing terrain data is classified as a no-step region of the candidate support surface. The no-step region indicates a region where the legged robot should avoid touching down a leg of the legged robot.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2022Publication date: December 8, 2022Inventors: Jeffrey Yu, Benjamin John Swilling, Eric Cary Whitman

Publication number: 20220145914Abstract: A mobile device mounting system includes two jaws. The first jaw is generally fixed in position to a wheeled vehicle. The second jaw is pivotably connected to the first jaw via a hinge. The second jaw can be positioned into a closed or open position relative to the first jaw. A biasing element is used to move the second jaw towards the closed position. A support element spans the first and second jaws and may be used to support the mobile device when the mobile device is placed in the mounting system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 20, 2022Publication date: May 12, 2022Inventors: Jeffrey YU, Nicholas FOLEY

Patent number: 8572494Abstract: An extensible software framework is used for the development and customization of XML based Web service deployment descriptors. The framework may provide for the mapping and synchronization of XML data fragments in the XML files to user interface components, resulting in an interface that can be used for the development and customization of the Web service configuration. This mechanism may allow concurrent read and write accesses to the XML based Web service deployment descriptors. The mechanism may be extensible, providing for the mapping between the user interface and the XML data fragments to be customized. Additional extensibility may come from the ability of the framework to readily accommodate the situation where the complete configuration of the Web service is described in multiple XML files. The resulting editor may present one unified display of all of the information across multiple files.Type: GrantFiled: July 14, 2004Date of Patent: October 29, 2013Assignee: International Business Machines CorporationInventors: Rupam Sinha Kuehner, Jeffrey Yu Kwan Liu, Allan S.
