Patent number: 9626564Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for improving perceived eye-contact in video communications on personal communication devices that have a camera positioned offset slightly away from a display screen, such as found in tablets, mobile phones, laptops, desktops ultrabooks, all-in-ones, and the like. A three-dimensional mesh, such as a point cloud, may be created from an image and depth information that is captured of the user. A viewing direction of is determined by assessing the three-dimensional mesh and the mesh is rotated to minimize the angle between the viewing direction and a line of sight between the user's eyes and the camera.Type: GrantFiled: November 17, 2014Date of Patent: April 18, 2017Assignee: INTEL CorporationInventors: Raghavendra R.

Patent number: 9046991Abstract: A system and method for dynamically displaying structurally dissimilar thumbnail images generated from multiple pages of an electronic document based on a display size of a display device is disclosed. In one embodiment, one or more candidate images are selected based on a generated metric for dissimilarity for each one of multiple images associated with multiple pages of an electronic document, where the metric for dissimilarity for each one of the multiple images is generated by comparing each image of the multiple images with substantially previous images of the multiple images. Then, the selected one or more candidate images are dynamically displayed as structurally dissimilar thumbnail images based on a display size of a display device.Type: GrantFiled: January 21, 2010Date of Patent: June 2, 2015Assignee: HEWLETT-PACKARD DEVELOPMENT COMPANY, L.P.Inventors: Anbumani Subramanian, Prasenjit Dey

Publication number: 20130268476Abstract: A system and method for classification of moving objects and user authoring of new object classes is disclosed. In one embodiment, in a method of classification of moving objects, a moving object is inputted. Then, an object descriptor and a motion descriptor are extracted from the inputted moving object. Multiple initial candidate library object descriptors are identified from an object library and a motion library using the extracted object descriptor and the extracted motion descriptor. An initial object class estimate is identified based on the identified multiple initial candidate library object descriptors. Then, an initial residue is computed based on the extracted object descriptor and the identified multiple initial candidate library object descriptors associated with the initial object class estimate. The object class estimates are iteratively identified and it is determined whether the object class estimates converge based on a stopping criterion.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 24, 2010Publication date: October 10, 2013Applicant: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Yogesh Sankarasubramniam, Krusheel Munnangi, Anbumani Subramanian, Avinash Sharma, Serene Banerjee
