  • Patent number: 12340590
    Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes a display device and a camera configured to generate image data reproducible as a series of images of a scene. Each of the series of images has a maximum field of view. A processor is configured to receive the image data, display at least a portion of the series of images, analyze the image data to determine if an object is recognized in each of the series of images, and generate a history of the series of images. The history is indicative of whether each of the series of images includes the object. Based at least in part on the history, the processor is configured to cause the display of the at least a portion of the series of images to be modified to: zoom in on the object, pan within the maximum field of view, zoom out on the scene, or any combination thereof.

  • Patent number: 12337792
    Abstract: Access to a vehicle is controlled by detecting gestures pointing to a virtual keypad. A setup mode preconfigures a sequence of touchpoints as a security key, wherein an administrant performs a timed series of distinct gestures according to a chosen number and location of touchpoints which are detected by the vehicle using captured real-time images. Touchpoints during a plurality of repetition trials provide respective sets of datapoints for each one of the distinct gestures in the series. A respective deviation contour is determined for each respective set and then expanded to represent regions of validity for respective touchpoints corresponding to the sequence of touchpoints. The expanded deviation contours are accepted as defining the sequence of touchpoints for the security key if there is no overlap between any expanded deviation contours to complete the setup mode.

  • Patent number: 12339336
    Abstract: A method for imaging a subject using a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system includes determining a tailored radio frequency (RF) pulse sequence having a plurality of refocusing pulses. In the method, a target peak RF pulse value is determined and a transfer function to convert a first refocusing pulse of the plurality of refocusing pulses to a modified refocusing pulse with the target peak RF pulse value is also determined. A modified RF pulse sequence is generated based on the transfer function and the plurality of refocusing pulses. Finally, magnetic resonance (MR) signals from the subject are acquired based on the modified RF pulse sequence and the medical image of the subject is generated based on the acquired MR signals.

  • Patent number: 12336555
    Abstract: A depuration process is employed for removing off-flavor contaminants from fish through an advanced oxidation process. Before the fish is harvested, the fish is transferred to a depuration tank or zone containing water. Off-flavor compounds leach from the tissue of the fish into the water in the depuration tank or zone. The water in the depuration tank or zone is circulated through an advanced oxidation reactor that, through an oxidation process, reduces the concentration of the off-flavor contaminants in the water.
