  • Patent number: 10718853
    Abstract: An environmental control system, control apparatus, and control method thereof are provided. The control apparatus receives a plurality of sets of sensed signals from a trackable apparatus, wherein each set of sensed signals is sensed from one of a primary base station and a first secondary base station and the last set of sensed signals is sensed from the primary base station. The primary base station, the first secondary base station, and a second secondary base station have a common coverage area. The control apparatus determines that the trackable apparatus has moved at least a predetermined distance in the common coverage area in a direction away from the first secondary base station and toward the second secondary base station. In responses to the determination, the control apparatus transmits instruction signals to turn off the first secondary base station and turn on the second secondary base station.

  • Publication number: 20180224927
    Abstract: A positioning apparatus and method are provided. The positioning apparatus receives a plurality of inertial measurement values generated by an inertial measurement unit at a plurality of time points respectively, wherein the time points are within a time interval and the inertial measurement unit is included in a trackable apparatus. The positioning apparatus determines that the inertial measurement values conform to one of the following two conditions: (i) a frequency of the inertial measurement values conforms to a first predetermined condition and (ii) a signed magnitude of each of the inertial measurement values conforms to a second predetermined condition. After determining that the inertial measurement values conform to one of the two conditions, the positioning apparatus adjusts at least one original positioning location of the trackable apparatus within the time interval to at least one rectified positioning location according to at least one of the inertial measurement values.

  • Publication number: 20140078343
    Abstract: An embodiment of a method for generating multiple still images and a video file in parallel is disclosed. A first series of images from an image sensor is provided to at least one buffer. A second series of images are captured in response to reception of a user input for performing a multi-capture operation. The process further provides the first series of images from the buffer for processing along at least two processing paths concurrently with the capturing of the second series of images. The two processing paths then process the second series of images, and the processed first series of images and second series of images are stored into a memory unit. At least one of the processing paths processes only a predetermined portion of the first series of images and the second series of images. Images processed by each of the two processing paths are stored, respectively.
