Publication number: 20220333950Abstract: Systems and methods for vehicle-based determination of HD map update information. Sensor-equipped vehicles may determine locations of various detected objects relative to the vehicles. Vehicles may also determine the location of reference objects relative to the vehicles, where the location of the reference objects in an absolute coordinate system is also known. The absolute coordinates of various detected objects may then be determined from the absolute position of the reference objects and the locations of other objects relative to the reference objects. Newly-determined absolute locations of detected objects may then be transmitted to HD map services for updating.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 19, 2021Publication date: October 20, 2022Inventors: Amir Akbarzadeh, Ruchita Bhargava, Bhaven Dedhia, Rambod Jacoby, Jeffrey Liu, Vaibhav Thukral

Patent number: 10552666Abstract: A candidate human head is found in depth video using a head detector. A head region of light intensity video is spatially resolved with a three-dimensional location of the candidate human head in the depth video. Facial recognition is performed on the head region of the light intensity video using a face recognizer.Type: GrantFiled: August 1, 2017Date of Patent: February 4, 2020Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Robert M. Craig, Vladimir Tankovich, Craig Peeper, Ketan Dalal, Bhaven Dedhia, Casey Meekhof

Patent number: 9703940Abstract: A computing system such as a game console maintains and updates a biometric profile of a user. In one aspect, biometric data of the user is continuously obtained from a sensor such as an infrared and visible light camera, and used to update the biometric profile using a machine learning process. In another aspect, a user is prompted to confirm his or her identify when multiple users are detected at the same time and/or when the user is detected with a confidence level which is below a threshold. A real-time image of the user being identified can be displayed on a user interface with user images associated with one or more accounts. In another aspect, the biometric profile is managed by a shell on the computing system, where the shell makes the biometric profile available to any of a number of applications on the computing system.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2014Date of Patent: July 11, 2017Assignee: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Ronald Forbes, Bhaven Dedhia, Tim Keosababian, Tommer Leyvand, Jinyu Li, Timothy Gerken

Patent number: 8929668Abstract: Classifying pixels in a digital image includes receiving a primary image from a primary image sensor. The primary image includes a plurality of primary pixels. Depth information from a depth sensor is also received. The depth information and the primary image are cooperatively used to identify whether a primary pixel images a foreground subject or a background subject.Type: GrantFiled: June 28, 2013Date of Patent: January 6, 2015Assignee: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Bhaven Dedhia, Tommer Leyvand
