  • USING PERSONALIZED KNOWLEDGE PATTERNS TO GENERATE PERSONALIZED LEARNING-BASED GUIDANCE
    Publication number: 20220139245
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention are directed to a computer-implemented method of generating personalized learning-based guidance. The computer-implemented method includes receiving at a question and answer (Q&A) module a user inquiry from a user. A knowledge pattern model of Q&A module is used to identify a knowledge pattern of the user, wherein the knowledge pattern of the user includes a learning-assist process that assists a discovery process implemented by the user and through which the user discovers an answer to the user inquiry. The knowledge pattern is used to generate the personalized learning-based guidance, wherein the personalized learning-based guidance includes a communication configured to assist the user with performing a task of acquiring a target knowledge that can be used by the user to generate the answer to the user inquiry.

  • REAL-TIME MAPPING OF PROJECTIONS ONTO MOVING 3D OBJECTS
    Publication number: 20220053174
    Abstract: A “Concurrent Projector-Camera” uses an image projection device in combination with one or more cameras to enable various techniques that provide visually flicker-free projection of images or video, while real-time image or video capture is occurring in that same space. The Concurrent Projector-Camera provides this projection in a manner that eliminates video feedback into the real-time image or video capture. More specifically, the Concurrent Projector-Camera dynamically synchronizes a combination of projector lighting (or light-control points) on-state temporal compression in combination with on-state temporal shifting during each image frame projection to open a “capture time slot” for image capture during which no image is being projected. This capture time slot represents a tradeoff between image capture time and decreased brightness of the projected image.
