  • Patent number: 11972042
    Abstract: A gaze detection assembly comprises a plurality of infrared (IR) light emitters configured to emit IR light toward a user eye and an IR camera configured to sequentially capture IR images of the user eye. A controller is configured to, during a reference frame, control the plurality of IR light emitters to emit IR light toward the user eye with a reference intensity distribution. During the reference frame, an IR image is captured depicting a first glint distribution on the user eye. Based at least in part on the first glint distribution, during a subsequent frame, the plurality of IR light emitters are controlled to emit IR light toward the user eye with a subsequent intensity distribution, different than the reference intensity distribution. During the subsequent frame, a second IR image is captured depicting a second glint distribution on the user eye.

  • Patent number: 11954637
    Abstract: A method for inferring a status asset information from data of a first type gathered by a first asset tracking device is provided. The method includes determining that a first asset tracking device coupled to a first asset and a second asset tracking device coupled to a second asset are travelling together, that the first asset tracking device has a first operating mode, and that the second asset tracking device has a second operating mode, which is different from the first operating mode of the first asset tracking device. In response, the second asset tracking device enters into a low-power mode in which it either does not gather data of the first type or does so at a reduced rate. Status information related to the second asset may be inferred from data of the first type gathered by the first asset tracking device.

  • Publication number: 20240105280
    Abstract: Disclosed is a method of analysing genetic data about an organism comprising receiving a plurality of input units. Each input unit comprises information about the association between genetic variants in a region of the genome and phenotypes or phenotype combinations. The method comprises carrying out iterations comprising, for each variant determining for which of the phenotypes or phenotype combinations the variant is causal based on the input units. If the variant is causal for phenotypes or phenotype combinations, a sampled effect size is determined of the variant on the phenotypes or phenotype combinations based on the input units and information about correlations between the variants in the region. For each variant, a prediction effect size is determined variant on the phenotypes or phenotype combinations based on an average across the iterations of the sampled effect sizes or of posterior effect sizes calculated using the sampled effect sizes.

  • Patent number: 11932365
    Abstract: An apparatus that facilitates search and rescue, for example, in open water. The apparatus comprises a substrate with a particular geometry and a perimeter. The apparatus further comprises a cover positioned atop the substrate with the cover also having a particular geometry and perimeter, which correspond to the geometry and perimeter of the substrate. An air-tight seal seals the substrate perimeter to the cover perimeter and creates a sealed internal region. A liquid-releasable vessel holding an illuminable dye located in the sealed internal region, along with an activator that is also located in the sealed internal region. When the liquid-releasable vessel releases the illuminable dye, the illuminable dye reacts with the activator, thereby resulting in illumination of the illuminable dye. The liquid-releasable vessel comprises an opening with a release mechanism (e.g., clamp, etc.).
