Patent number: 11048317Abstract: A communication device, method, and computer program product provide higher confidence in person detection by augmenting sensing with carbon dioxide sensing and contextual information. The communication device determines a current carbon dioxide level in a space in which the communication device is located. A processor of the communication device compares the current carbon dioxide level to a carbon dioxide baseline threshold that is indicative of presence of a person in the space. In response to determining that the current carbon dioxide level is greater than the carbon dioxide baseline threshold, the processor further determines whether at least one target is sensed within the space. In response to determining that at least one target is sensed in the space, the processor infers the presence of a person in the space and sets a control mode of the communication device that correlates to the presence of the person.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2019Date of Patent: June 29, 2021Assignee: Motorola Mobility LLCInventors: Nikhil Ambha Madhusudhana, Vivek K.

Patent number: 10873833Abstract: In aspects of location correlation in a region, a mobile device implements a location module that determines a current location of the mobile device in a region within communication range of a radio system based on location data received in radio signals from the radio system. The location module determines region coordinates at the current location of the mobile device in the region. The location module can then associate the region coordinates at the current location of the mobile device in the region with pixel grid coordinates determined from a digital image view as captured by a camera system in the region, and generate a location mapping of the region based on the current location and subsequent locations of the mobile device in the region. The location mapping correlates the locations of the mobile device in the region based on the pixel grid coordinates at the respective locations.Type: GrantFiled: September 30, 2019Date of Patent: December 22, 2020Assignee: Motorola Mobility LLCInventors: Vivek Kumar Tyagi, Douglas Alfred Lautner, Nikhil Ambha Madhusudhana, Sudhir C.
