  • Patent number: 11943735
    Abstract: An indoor target positioning method based on an improved convolutional neural network (CNN) model includes acquiring and preprocessing target camera serial interface (CSI) data of a to-be-positioned target and matching the preprocessed target CSI data with fingerprints in a positioning fingerprint database to obtain coordinate information of the to-be-positioned target. The generation method of the positioning fingerprint database includes: collecting indoor WiFi signals by a software defined radio (SDR) platform to obtain indoor CSI data corresponding to the WiFi signals, and preprocessing the indoor CSI data; partitioning the preprocessed indoor CSI data into a plurality of data subsets through a clustering algorithm; training an improved CNN model by the data subsets to obtain a trained improved CNN model; and generating the positioning fingerprint database by the trained improved CNN model and the preprocessed indoor CSI data.

  • Publication number: 20240094528
    Abstract: A wearable device may include a head-mounted display (HMD) for rendering a three-dimensional (3D) virtual object which appears to be located in an ambient environment of a user of the display. The relative positions of the HMD and one or more eyes of the user may not be in desired positions to receive, or register, image information outputted by the HMD. For example, the HMD-to-eye alignment may vary for different users and may change over time (e.g., as a user moves around and/or the HMD slips or is otherwise displaced). The wearable device may determine a relative position or alignment between the HMD and the user's eyes. Based on the relative positions, the wearable device may determine if it is properly fitted to the user, may provide feedback on the quality of the fit to the user, and may take actions to reduce or minimize effects of any misalignment.

  • Publication number: 20240078768
    Abstract: Features described herein generally relate to learning and recognizing object-centered routines. Particularly, object-centered routines can be learned and recognized by collecting data corresponding to a user. The data can include information representing interactions by the user with respect to objects in an environment. The routine can be learned by presenting a visual graph to the user. The user can define nodes associating an interaction with an object, specify a relationship between nodes, and arrange the nodes into segments. The visual graph can be stored, and a routine can be recognized based on the visual graph.

  • Patent number: 11924178
    Abstract: Disclosed is a system and a method for information distribution. The system comprises: a server for generating a group key and its corresponding key deriving parameter, wherein the server encrypts sensitive contents by using the group key to obtain encrypted information; and terminals configured to receive the encrypted information through an open channel, extract the group key, then decrypt the encrypted information by using the group key to obtain the original content. In the group forming process, each terminal encrypts its private identifier using the public key and submits the ciphertext to the server. In information distribution process, the server transmits the ciphertext of sensitive contents and the key deriving parameter to the terminals via open channel Because private information available only to respective group members is required for calculating the group key, this mechanism ensures that the sensitive content can be transmitted securely on the open channel.

  • Publication number: 20240027794
    Abstract: Systems and methods for regulating the speed of movement of virtual objects presented by a wearable system are described. The wearable system may present three-dimensional (3D) virtual content that moves, e.g., laterally across the user's field of view and/or in perceived depth from the user. The speed of the movement may follow the profile of an S-curve, with a gradual increase to a maximum speed, and a subsequent gradual decrease in speed until an end point of the movement is reached. The decrease in speed may be more gradual than the increase in speed. This speed curve may be utilized in the movement of virtual objections for eye-tracking calibration. The wearable system may track the position of a virtual object (an eye-tracking target) which moves with a speed following the S-curve. This speed curve allows for rapid movement of the eye-tracking target, while providing a comfortable viewing experience and high accuracy in determining the initial and final positions of the eye as it tracks the target.
