  • Patent number: 11756333
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for determining a posture of a user of an Information Handling System (IHS). One or more cameras of the IHS are utilized to generate a two-dimensional image of the user as they operate the IHS. Landmarks that correspond to physical features of the user are identified through processing of the two-dimensional image generated using the cameras. A time-of-flight sensor of the IHS is utilized to generate a three-dimensional image of the user. The identified physical feature landmarks of the user are overlayed onto the three-dimensional image, thus allowing distances from the IHS to each of the landmarks to be determined. Based on the overlay of the physical feature landmarks onto the three-dimensional image a posture of the user relative to the IHS is determined. The posture may be scored based on the degree to which the user's posture deviates from an ergonomic posture.

  • Patent number: 11758148
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a perceptual quality application determines an absolute quality score for encoded video content viewed on a target viewing device. In operation, the perceptual quality application determines a baseline absolute quality score for the encoded video content viewed on a baseline viewing device. Subsequently, the perceptual quality application determines that a target value for a type of the target viewing device does not match a base value for the type of the baseline viewing device. The perceptual quality application computes an absolute quality score for the encoded video content viewed on the target viewing device based on the baseline absolute quality score and the target value. Because the absolute quality score is independent of the viewing device, the absolute quality score accurately reflects the perceived quality of a wide range of encoded video content when decoded and viewed on a viewing device.
