Abstract: A data collection system that performs data collection of human-driven robot actions for robot learning. The data collection system includes: i) a wearable computation subsystem that is worn by a human data collector and that controls the data collection process and ii) a human-machine operation interface subsystem that allows the human data collector to use the human-machine operation interface to operate an attached robotic gripper to perform one or more actions. A user interface subsystem receives instructions from the wearable computation subsystem that direct the human data collector to perform the one or more actions using the human-machine operation interface subsystem. A visual sensing subsystem includes one or more cameras that collect raw visual data related to the pose and movement of the robotic gripper while performing the one or more actions. A data collection subsystem receives collected data related to the one or more actions.

Abstract: An Artificial Intelligence (AI) system for monitoring and/or processing a data collection process involving one or more data collection subjects. The AI system includes an AI module. The AI module is configured to instantiate in a computer readable hardware storage device the following: an AI monitoring module that is configured to instantiate the following: a health protocol check submodule configured to check if one or more health safety rules and protocols are being satisfied by the one or more data collection subjects during the data collection process, an environmental condition check submodule configured to check if data collection rules or protocols are being satisfied by the one or more data collection subjects during the data collection process, and an AI processing module configured to remove any PII of the one or more data collection subjects from the data collected during the data collection process.

Abstract: A system and method for dynamically cropping a video transmission includes or cooperates with an image capture device. The image capture device is oriented such that the field of view captures a desired scene from which a region of interest may be automatically determined by a processor utilizing a human pose estimation model including predefined keypoints or key areas. The image capture device may have a common resolution such as 1080p. The processor applies a bounding box over each frame or image corresponding to the region of interest and crops the image to the region of interest. A stabilization algorithm is applied to the cropped image to reduce jitter. The cropped image is rescaled and transmitted to a viewer. A system on the viewer's end may be configured to scale up the rescaled image to a higher resolution using a suitable artificial intelligence modality.

Abstract: A disinfection monitoring system and method for performing monitoring of a disinfection system is provided. The disinfection monitoring system may include one or more image capture devices configured to capture a set of images or videos of an object to be disinfected, such as a user's hands, fingers, and body during an disinfection procedure. An AI module performs detection and detection-based tracking from the captured image or video to determine a quality of the disinfection procedure. The detection and detection-based tracking is performed using keypoint or key area based detection of the user's hands, fingers, and body during the disinfection procedure. A disinfection data collection system generates a ground-truth score from the set of images or videos that indicate a quality of the overall disinfection procedure and/or a quality of each step in the overall disinfection procedure. The ground-truth score is used to train the disinfection monitoring system.

Abstract: A remote security system and method for securing a workstation including a display within a space may comprise at least one image capture device, at least one lock mechanism configured to cooperate with an entrance to the space, and at least one network access security device configured to cooperate with the workstation. The system may comprise internal components configured to cooperate with external components including a processor configured to determine from a captured image the presence of an unauthorized person, device, or activity. The captured image may be processed and annotated using an artificial intelligence modality.
