Publication number: 20180253894Abstract: Techniques are provided for 3D model reconstruction of dynamic scenes using hybrid foreground-background processing. A methodology implementing the techniques according to an embodiment includes receiving multiple static images of a scene. Each static image is generated by a static camera, positioned at a fixed location and oriented at a fixed viewing angle. The method also includes receiving multiple dynamic images of the scene, each dynamic image generated by a movable camera. The method further includes performing 3D reconstruction of the scene foreground, based on the static images, and performing 3D reconstruction of the scene background, based on the static images and the dynamic images. The method further includes superimposing the reconstructed 3D foreground and 3D background, with alignment based on calibration parameters (e.g., focal length, principal point, rotation, or translation) of the static and movable cameras, to provide a hybrid 3D reconstruction of the scene for 3D rendering.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 2, 2016Publication date: September 6, 2018Applicant: INTEL CORPORATIONInventors: RANGANATH KRISHNAN, DEEPAK S.

Patent number: 9985958Abstract: Apparatus, methods, and systems described herein are for segmentation, handshaking, and access control solutions for Opendots technology. One embodiment described a charging pad that includes a plurality of conductive strips, switches, and decipher circuitry. A switch is coupled to the plurality of conductive strips whereas the decipher circuitry is coupled to the plurality of conductive strips and the switch. In response to contact with one conductive strip of the plurality of conductive strips, the decipher circuitry determines whether a security password has been received. The switch allows a voltage higher than a threshold voltage level to be supplied to an external device if the security password is received by the decipher circuitry. However, the switch can also prevent a voltage higher than a threshold voltage level to be supplied to an external device if the security password is not received by the decipher circuitry.Type: GrantFiled: March 26, 2016Date of Patent: May 29, 2018Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Bo Qiu, Jianfang Zhu, Anand S.

Publication number: 20160092665Abstract: An initial authentication of a user, if successful, causes a token to be stored on, and presented from, a wearable device (WD). The WD continually monitors one or more of the wearer's vital signs to confirm that (1) the WD is being worn by a living person rather than an inanimate simulacrum, and (2) the WD is still worn by the same person who underwent the authentication. The token can be read by a token-reader on at least one protected device (PD). If the token is valid, its presentation serves as authentication and the token-reader grants the user access to the PD. If the WD vital-sign signal is interrupted when the user removes the WD, the WD stops presenting the token and can no longer be used to access a PD.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 27, 2014Publication date: March 31, 2016Inventors: Melissa A. Cowan, Ramune Nagisetty, Jason Martin, Richard A. Forand, Conor P. Cahill, Bradley A. Jackson
