  • Publication number: 20240125068
    Abstract: A shark-attack-prevention ocean wall device is provided. The device is comprised of a post and net system that can be anchored into an ocean floor and provides a vertical net barrier. The barrier can be erected around a specific area of an ocean or other body of water to provide a swimming area free of dangerous animals, such as but not limited to sharks.

  • Patent number: 8144778
    Abstract: Systems and methods of motion compensated frame rate conversion are described herein. These systems and methods convert an input video sequence at a first frame rate to an output video sequence at a second frame rate through a novel motion estimation and motion vector processing stage that produces a motion field having a plurality of motion vectors that describe the movement of objects between input video frames from the perspective of an interpolated video frame. A subsequent motion compensated interpolation stage then constructs the interpolated video frame using an adaptively blended combination of a motion compensated prediction and a temporal average prediction of the pixel values from the input video frames.
