  • Publication number: 20240424342
    Abstract: An electronic device includes at least one processor that identifies a cyclic change related to an arm swing of a user from a three-dimensional acceleration measured by a first measurer. The at least one processor defines a two-dimensional plane containing a plane of the arm swing of the user from the three-dimensional acceleration measured at a wrist of the user, detects the cyclic change as a motion on an arc centered at a shoulder of the user in the two-dimensional plane, and obtains an angle of the arm swing.

  • Patent number: 12154298
    Abstract: When estimating color for a marker candidate region that is smaller in size than a DeBayer filter, a sever estimates the color of the marker candidate region using HSV average values that are the average values of the hue H, the saturation S, and the brightness V of the marker candidate region, in consideration of the Bayer array of color filters. Furthermore, the server appropriately corrects the HSV average values and converts the pixel format to convert the HSV average values to RGB (RGB average value values), and sets the RGB average values in all pixels of a marker region.
