  • Publication number: 20250124703
    Abstract: Methods, devices, or systems that may allow for remote monitoring of a capture area or the automatic inspection of a capture area, such as an adhesive board, among other things. In one aspect, the disclosed subject matter includes receiving an image of a capture area, generating current detection boxes associated with objects (e.g., pests) by performing object detection on the image, determining output boxes by comparing the current detection boxes with historical detection boxes, generating the output boxes, and transmitting an object count based on the output boxes.

  • Publication number: 20250124713
    Abstract: An adaptive object recognition system utilizes relevance-based weighting and scoring that may assist with accuracy and stability. The system receives multiple recognition results for objects across video frames. Weights are assigned to results based on their stability over frames and the relevance scoring of neighboring areas. This allows more confidence to be placed in consistent detections and clearer image regions. The system decouples high and low accuracy areas to apply appropriate thresholding. Temporal analysis is used to favor frequently detected objects. Weighted results are combined to generate final recognitions that are more robust to non-uniform image quality and noise.

  • Publication number: 20250124579
    Abstract: An image may be received from a sensor associated with a capture area. Background elements associated with the capture area may be removed and a cleaned image generated. Objects may then be detected in this cleaned image. A spatial partition model may be generated to understand z-index and partially obscured areas while preserving relative object sizes. This model may be used to determine and remove foreground elements that may obstruct objects of interest. Object detection may be performed again on the further cleaned image. Detected objects may be filtered based on predefined criteria for different object classes.

  • Publication number: 20250112488
    Abstract: Electric fields that can cause corrosion of contacts can be compensated for by embodiments of the present invention. For example, voltage waveforms at the contacts can be made to have a zero volt average, and therefore have a zero net electric field. Galvanic voltages generated by dissimilar metals used by a contact and a housing can generate an electric field, and currents motivated by the galvanic electric field can be blocked by capacitively coupling the contacts to their corresponding circuits.

  • Publication number: 20240418644
    Abstract: A photoplethysmographic (PPG) device is disclosed. The PPG device can include one or more light emitters and one or more light sensors to generate the multiple light paths for measuring a PPG signal and perfusion indices of a user. The multiple light paths between each pair of light emitters and light detectors can include different separation distances to generate both an accurate PPG signal and a perfusion index value to accommodate a variety of users and usage conditions. In some examples, the multiple light paths can include the same separation distances for noise cancellation due to artifacts resulting from, for example, tilt and/or pull of the device, a user's hair, a user's skin pigmentation, and/or motion. The PPG device can further include one or more lenses and/or reflectors to increase the signal strength and/or and to obscure the optical components and associated wiring from being visible to a user's eye.
