Publication number: 20230229009Abstract: A fixed map augmented reality system includes at least one beacon, a detector on a headset and a displayer. The beacon is mounted on or integrated with a physical element and emits light modulated with fixed map data related to a location of the light-emitting element of the physical element. When viewing the beacon, the detector decodes the modulated light into the fixed map data and determines a physical relationship of the beacon with respect to the detector. The displayer uses the physical relationship to generate a display overlay on the headset of the fixed map data related to the physical element. The display overlay includes a human-readable message of data related to the physical element and a display connection connecting the human-readable message to a location in a frame-of-reference associated with the physical element.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 16, 2023Publication date: July 20, 2023Inventor: Daniel GREENSPAN

Patent number: 10153784Abstract: Integrated circuits, systems and methods are disclosed in which data bits protected by error correction code (ECC) detection and correction may be increased such that a combination of primary and additional bits may also be ECC protected using existing ECC allocation, without affecting ECC capabilities. For example, the additional bits may be encoded into phantom bits that are in turn used in combination with the primary bits, to generate an ECC. This ECC may then be combined with the primary bits to form a code word. The code word may be transmitted (or stored) so that when the data bits are received (or retrieved), assumed values of the phantom bits may be decoded, using the ECC, back into the additional bits without the phantom bits or the additional bits ever having transmitted (or stored).Type: GrantFiled: January 23, 2017Date of Patent: December 11, 2018Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Daniel Greenspan, Asaf Rubinstein, Julius Yuli Mandelblat

Publication number: 20180212766Abstract: A content protection system includes an encrypter to encrypt fragments of a datastream, each with one of a multiplicity of related encryption keys, so as to require a decrypter to use limited exhaustive key searches to determine the corresponding decryption keys. The encrypter includes a key generator to generate the encryption keys and an individual key encrypter to encrypt each the fragment with its associated encryption key. Each encryption key is a function of a disclosed key and an additional random parameter. A content presentation system includes a fragment selector and a key deriver. The fragment selector selects a fragment of a datastream to present to a user based on a user selection. The key deriver finds the value of the additional random parameter to determine the individual key for decrypting the selected fragment.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 24, 2018Publication date: July 26, 2018Inventor: Daniel GREENSPAN
