  • Patent number: 11783612
    Abstract: A system configured to reduce false positives when performing human presence detection is provided. In addition to calculating a Human Detection (HD) confidence score during human presence detection, the system may use human keypoint detection (HKD) techniques to calculate a true positive (TP) confidence score and detect false positives based on a combination of the two confidence scores. For example, the device system may generate keypoint data, which indicates a location and maximum confidence value for individual keypoints associated with a human body. The system may input the keypoint data to a model configured to generate the TP confidence score, such as a logistic regression model that is configured to receive numerical values as inputs (e.g., HD confidence score and 17 keypoint confidence values) and generate the TP confidence score. The system then detects false positives using the TP confidence score and may remove corresponding bounding boxes.

  • Patent number: 11367306
    Abstract: An autonomous mobile device (AMD) or other device may perform various tasks during operation. The AMD includes a camera to acquire an image. Some tasks, such as presenting information on a display screen or a video call, may involve the AMD determining whether a user is engaged with the AMD. The AMD may move a component, such as the camera or the display screen, to provide a best experience for an engaged user. Images from the camera are processed to determine attributes of the user, such as yaw of the face of the user, pitch of the face of the user, distance from the camera, and so forth. Based on the values of these attributes, a user engagement score is determined. The score may be used to select a particular user from many users in the image, or to otherwise facilitate operation of the AMD.

  • Patent number: 11172122
    Abstract: Devices, systems and methods are disclosed for improving facial recognition and/or speaker recognition models by using results obtained from one model to assist in generating results from the other model. For example, a device may perform facial recognition for image data to identify users and may use the results of the facial recognition to assist in speaker recognition for corresponding audio data. Alternatively or additionally, the device may perform speaker recognition for audio data to identify users and may use the results of the speaker recognition to assist in facial recognition for corresponding image data. As a result, the device may identify users in video data that are not included in the facial recognition model and may identify users in audio data that are not included in the speaker recognition model. The facial recognition and/or speaker recognition models may be updated during run-time and/or offline using post-processed data.

  • Patent number: 10277813
    Abstract: A viewing device, such as a virtual reality headset, allows a user to view a panoramic scene captured by one or more video capture devices that may include multiple cameras that simultaneously capture 360° video data. The viewing device may display the panoramic scene in real time and change the display in response to moving the viewing device and/or changing perspectives by switching to video data being captured by a different video capture device within the environment. Moreover, multiple video capture devices located within an environment can be used to create a three-dimensional representation of the environment that allows a user to explore the three-dimensional space while viewing the environment in real time.
