Patent number: 12126917Abstract: An Internet of Things (IoT) or vehicle dash cam may store both a high-resolution and low-resolution video stream on a device. The video streams are selectively accessible by remote devices. Because of the relatively smaller storage requirements of low-resolution video files, retaining of additional video data on the vehicle device (beyond what would be possible with only high-resolution video) is possible. The user may be provided an option to adjust the amount of low-resolution and high-resolution video to store on the device. A combined media file may be generated by a device to include time-synced high-resolution video, low-resolution video, and/or metadata for a particular time period.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2022Date of Patent: October 22, 2024Assignee: SAMSARA INC.Inventors: Sabrina Shemet, Matthew Basham, John Charles Bicket, Mathew Chasan Calmer, Justin Delegard, Derrek Harrison, David Liang, Ava O'Neill, Cassandra Lee Rommel, Meelap Shah, Casey Takahashi, Ingo Wiegand

Patent number: 12112555Abstract: Techniques are presented for detecting when drivers drive while drowsy. In some implementations, a drowsiness model is trained with data associated with inward videos and outward videos captured during a trip. The inward videos capture the inside of the cabin with the driver, and the outward videos capture the view in front of the vehicle in the direction of travel. Further, a device at the vehicle periodically calculates a drowsiness scale index value that indicates the level of drowsiness of the driver. Calculating the drowsiness scale index value includes obtaining a set of inward frames from the inward videos; for each inward frame, creating a face image by cropping the inward frame; obtaining a set of outward frames from the outward videos; calculating inward embeddings of the face images and outward embeddings of the outward frames; and calculating, by the drowsiness model, the drowsiness scale index value.Type: GrantFiled: April 12, 2024Date of Patent: October 8, 2024Assignee: Samsara Inc.Inventors: Sung Chun Lee, Nathan Hurst, Yan Wang, Olamide Akintewe, Justin Levine, Kenshiro Nakagawa, Cole Jurden, Rachel Demerly, Aravindh Ramesh, Kevin Lai, Jovanna Bubar, Shirish Nair, Maisie Wang
