  • Patent number: 11415801
    Abstract: A personal, electronic target vision system renders targets in the field of view of the user in real-time so that the user can visualize where the targets are relative to him, in an orientation analogous to unaided human vision. An electronic vision device exchanges target selection information with a target vision server which returns to the electronic vision device the corresponding selected target location information for rendering selected targets in accordance with the user's changing viewpoint. The target vision server queries a target information server in order to access, filter and provide the real-time target location information required by the electronic vision device. A surveillance system of sensors and target tracking systems provides the target information server with target location information.

  • Patent number: 11417061
    Abstract: Devices and techniques are generally described for three dimensional mesh generation. In various examples, first two-dimensional (2D) image data representing a human may be received. In various further examples, bounding box data identifying a location of the human in the first 2D image data and joint data identifying locations of joints of the human may be received. Second 2D image data representing a cropped portion of the human may be generated using the bounding box data and the joint data. A three-dimensional (3D) mesh prediction model may be used to determine a pose, a shape, and a projection matrix for the human. The 3D mesh prediction model may be used to determine a transformed projection matrix for the portion of the human represented in the second 2D image data.

  • Patent number: 11410419
    Abstract: An enhanced vision system includes a first optic subsystem and a transparent photodetector subsystem disposed within a common housing. The first optic subsystem may include passive devices such as simple or compound lenses, active devices such as low-light enhancing image intensifiers, or a combination of passive and active devices. The transparent photodetector subsystem receives the visible image exiting the first optic subsystem and converts a portion of the electromagnetic energy in the visible image to a signal communicated to image analysis circuitry. On a real-time or near real-time basis, the image analysis circuitry detects and identifies structures, objects, and/or individuals in the visible image. The image analysis circuitry provides an output that includes information regarding the structure, objects, and individuals to the system user contemporaneous with the system user viewing the visible image.

  • Patent number: 11410690
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally related to a two dimensional magnetic recording (TDMR) read head having a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). Both the upper reader and the lower reader have a dual free layer (DFL) MTJ structure between two shields. A synthetic antiferromagnetic (SAF) soft bias structure bounds the MTJ, and a rear hard bias (RHB) structure is disposed behind the MTJ. The DFL MTJ decreases the distance between the upper and lower reader and hence, improves the area density capacity (ADC). Additionally, the SAF soft bias structures and the rear head bias structure cause the dual free layer MTJ to have a scissor state magnetic moment at the media facing surface (MFS).

  • Patent number: 11409831
    Abstract: Logs representative of interactions by users or services with interfaces, such as clickstream logs, are generated by combining logs associated with cached data with logs associated with data generated in response to a request. When a first response to a request is generated and a portion of the response data is cached, a first log representative of interactions with the cached data is stored in association with a log identifier. When a second request is received at a subsequent time and the cached data is used to generate a second response, a second log representative of interactions with the response data will include the log identifier for the first log. In response to the log identifier, the first log is accessed and combined with the second log to form a third log representative of interactions with both the cached data and response data for the second response.

  • Patent number: 11410119
    Abstract: A user undertakes an event, such as adding, removing, or otherwise interacting with an item stowed at a fixture. Using successive samples of weight data that occur during an event, a plurality of vectors are generated that are indicative of a weight change and a location associated with the fixture. The vectors are processed to determine where within the fixture the event took place. Hypotheses are generated that describe predicted interactions involving predicted locations that correspond to those indicated by the vectors. The hypotheses are ranked and then one is selected as a solution. The predicted values associated with the selected hypothesis are then used to generate interaction data that indicates one or more types of item and quantities of the items that were added, removed, or otherwise handled by the user.
