Publication number: 20230176203Abstract: To track an object with radar, and achieve greater than range resolution precision, the phase of a difference signal can be utilized and adjusted as the tracked object crosses between resolution ranges. Changes in the object's distance can be detected with greater than range resolution precision by utilizing the phase. Such changes can iteratively inform the determined distance across multiple phase cycles within a single distance range. As the movement of the object approaches, and then crosses, between resolution ranges, the phase as determined within an origin resolution range can be compared with a coincident phase within the destination resolution range and the difference can then be utilized to adjust the phase as the object then remains within the destination resolution range. Such phase adjustments can be applied across multiple resolution ranges, allowing for the tracking of an object, utilizing radar, while achieving greater than range resolution precision.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 6, 2021Publication date: June 8, 2023Inventors: Jouya JADIDIAN, Seyedsohrab MADANI, Mohammad MALIK, Muddassar ASLAM, Alfonsus LUNARDHI, Scott FULLAM, Rubén CABALLERO

Publication number: 20190391544Abstract: Various embodiments relating to controlling ambient environmental conditions to affect one or more human subjects wearing wearable computing systems are disclosed. In one example, a head-mounted computing system includes a see-through display configured to present an augmented reality image in front of an environment when viewed through the see-through display, a logic subsystem, and a storage subsystem. The storage subsystem may hold instructions executable by the logic subsystem to present the augmented reality image via the see-through display, and during presentation of the augmented reality image, send a command to control an environmental control system external to the head-mounted computing system. The command may be configured to trigger adjustment of an environmental parameter of the environment to enhance presentation of the augmented reality image.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2019Publication date: December 26, 2019Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Scott Fullam, Barry John Corlett
