  • Patent number: 11967161
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to a system of a delivery device for combining sensor data from various types of sensors to generate a map that enables the delivery device to navigate from a first location to a second location to deliver an item to the second location. The system obtains data from RGB, LIDAR, and depth sensors and combines this sensor data according to various algorithms to detect objects in an environment of the delivery device, generate point cloud and pose information associated with the detected objects, and generates object boundary data for the detected objects. The system further identifies object states for the detected object and generates the map for the environment based on the detected object, the generated object proposal data, the labeled point cloud data, and the object states. The generated map may be provided to other systems to navigate the delivery device.

  • Publication number: 20240113738
    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a PIM correction circuit. In a base station, TX and RX RF changes, band pass filters, duplexers, and diplexers can have severe memory effects due to their sharp transition bandwidth from pass band to stop band. PIM interference, generated by the TX signals and reflected onto the RX RF chain will include these memory effects. These memory effects make PIM cancellation complex, requiring complicated computations and circuits. However, the embodiments herein use a PIM correction circuit that separates the memory effects of the TX and RX paths from the memory effects of PIM, thereby reducing PIM cancellation complexity and hardware implementation cost.

  • Patent number: 11928947
    Abstract: A fall detection-based help-seeking method and an electronic device, to improve accuracy of fall detection performed by an electronic device and reduce a probability of mistakenly triggering automatic help-seeking of the electronic device. A solution includes: the electronic device includes a motion sensor and the motion sensor includes an acceleration sensor or a gyro sensor. The electronic device collects a first motion parameter of a user by using the motion sensor. The electronic device obtains a fall confidence of the first motion parameter if the first motion parameter matches a first preset fall parameter, where the fall confidence of the first motion parameter is used to represent a probability that the first motion parameter is a motion parameter collected when the user falls. The electronic device sends help-seeking information if the fall confidence of the first motion parameter is greater than a preset confidence threshold.

    Abstract: An electronic device may learn a specific somatosensory action completed by a user, and also record a specific remote control key selected by the user, and then the electronic device may associate the action with the key. When recognizing that the user completes the action, the electronic device may simulate a control signal generated by the key, to control a game operation. Accordingly, the user can simply and quickly transform a conventional game into a somatosensory game. In this process, a game manufacturer does not need to perform additional customization work, and the user does not need to use an additional somatosensory device.

  • Publication number: 20230401897
    Abstract: A method for preventing hand gesture misrecognition is provided. In the method for preventing hand gesture misrecognition, whether a user is exercising is recognized by obtaining motion data of the user in real time, to choose whether to disable a hand gesture recognition function. If the object user is exercising, the electronic device does not perform hand gesture recognition; or if the object user is not exercising, the electronic device performs hand gesture recognition. In addition, in the method, a trigger threshold for hand gesture recognition may further be adaptively adjusted based on a deflection angle between a human body plane of the user and a plane on which the electronic device is located.
