Abstract: Systems and devices configured by an algorithm to prevent or limit a speaker over-excursion are disclosed. The disclosed algorithm is computationally efficient because it exploits a relationship between an audio signal and a speaker's excursion that exists at low-frequencies, below a self-resonance of a speaker. The disclosed algorithm combines the low-frequency excursion protection with a high-frequency, transient excursion protection. The combined approach allows the transient excursion protection to use a shorter delay than otherwise possible. The shorter delay allows for a compressor to apply attenuation to a transient audio signal before a momentum of the speaker, caused by the transient audio signal, grows too large to be controlled.

Abstract: A system generates a user hand shape model from a single depth camera. The system includes the single depth camera and a hand tracking unit. The single depth camera generates single depth image data of a user's hand. The hand tracking unit applies the single depth image data to a neural network model to generate heat maps indicating locations of hand features. The locations of hand features are used to generate a user hand shape model customized to the size and shape of the user's hand. The user hand shape model is defined by a set of principal component hand shapes defining a hand shape variation space. The limited number of principal component hand shape models reduces determination of user hand shape to a smaller number of variables, and thus provides for a fast calibration of the user hand shape model.
