  • Patent number: 10375288
    Abstract: Systems and methods for motion capture are disclosed. In one arrangement a plurality of cameras are provided and a processing unit is configured to perform processing using image data from each of the plurality of cameras. Each of the cameras comprises an accelerometer and the processing unit is configured to perform processing that is dependent on an output from the accelerometers. In another arrangement each of the cameras comprises a temperature sensor and the processing unit is configured to perform processing that is dependent on an output from the temperature sensors.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20080060047
    Abstract: A receiver (3) for television signals has a primary video output (22a) connected to a primary TV (2a) and a secondary video output (22b) connected to a secondary TV (2b) at a remote location (42b). The receiver (3) can be controlled by an infrared remote control (28) either directly or from the remote location (42b) via a remote control extender (40). The primary TV (2a) may be a widescreen TV with a 16:9 picture format, while the secondary TV (2b) has a 4:3 picture format. The receiver (3) can output video signals suitable for either format, but must apply the same format to both the primary and secondary video outputs (22a, 22b). The receiver (3) detects whether control signals are arriving directly or via the remote control extender, and automatically selects the correct format. In another embodiment, a wireless audio base station (55) is connected to the receiver (3) for relaying audio signals and programme data to a wireless audio receiver (60).
