  • Publication number: 20200082241
    Abstract: Embodiments described herein provide a system comprising a non-volatile storage memory, a controller, and a cognitive memory. The storage memory can store data. During operation, the controller programs a function for the system based on a configuration file. The function indicates one or more operations for the data stored in the storage memory. The cognitive memory can include a set of neuron memory cells, which can store a knowledge base for facilitating the function and execute a pattern matching operation between the data stored in the storage memory and the data stored in the set of neuron memory cells. The controller can then execute the one or more operations within the system based on an output of the pattern matching operation from the cognitive memory.

  • Patent number: 9092689
    Abstract: The present invention is directed to an apparatus which can acquire, readout and perceive a scene based on the insertion, or embedding of photosensitive elements into or on a transparent or semi-transparent substrate such as glass or plastic. The substrate itself may act as the optical device which deflects the photons of an incident image into the photosensitive elements. A digital neural memory can be trained to recognize patterns in the incident photons. The photosensitive elements and digital neural memory elements may be arranged with light elements controlled in accordance with the patterns detected. In one application, intelligent lighting units provide light while monitoring surroundings and/or adjusting light according to such surroundings. In another application, intelligent displays display images and/or video while monitoring surroundings and/or adjusting the displayed images and/or video in accordance with such surroundings.

  • Patent number: 7796841
    Abstract: An apparatus which can acquire, readout and perceive a scene based on the insertion, or etching of photosensitive elements into or on a transparent or semi-transparent substrate such as glass. The substrate itself acts as the optical device which deflects the photons incident to the reflected image into the photosensitive elements. Photosensitive elements are interconnected together by a transparent or opaque wiring. A digital neural memory can be trained to recognize specific scenery such as a human face, an incoming object, a surface defect, rain drops on a windshield and more. Other applications include image-perceptive car headlight and flat panel display detecting and identifying the viewer's behavior (gaze tracking, face recognition, facial expression recognition and more). Yet another application includes sliding doors perceiving the direction and speed of an individual coming towards that door.
