Abstract: Calibration signals are transmitted across a touch panel in order to establish a baseline heat map. The touch panel may have a variety of differently transmitted frequencies and or patterns of signals that are able to help establish a baseline heat map upon which future touch events can be compared in order to improve characteristics of the receipt of the touch events by, for example, improving the ability to determine coupling.

Abstract: A pressure adaptive sensor system has at least one transmitting antenna and at least one receiving antenna adapted to receive a signal from at least one transmitting antenna. A measurement of received signals is used in order to determine pressure of an operable portion of the electrode on an object. The determined pressure is used by a pressure actuator to alter a contact profile when an electrode is in contact with skin or a surface.

Abstract: A rifle scope including a display, at least one optical sensor to capture video of a view area, and image processing circuitry coupled to the display and the at least one optical sensor. The image processing circuitry is configured to select visual elements within a sequence of frames of the video and to align the visual elements within adjacent frames of the sequence of frames to produce a video output corresponding to the view area that is stabilized relative to a target. The image processing circuit is configured to provide the video output to the display.

Abstract: A precision guided firearm (PGF) includes a trigger assembly and an optical device coupled to the trigger assembly. The optical device includes an optical sensor configured to capture video of a view area and includes at least one motion sensor. The optical device is configured to process video frames of the video to determine a distance between an aim point of the PGF and a selected location on a target and to determine a trajectory of the aim point based on the video frames and motion data from the at least one motion sensor.

Abstract: A precision guided firearm (PGF) includes a trigger assembly and an optical device coupled to the trigger assembly. The optical device is to predict a time when an aim point of the PGF is less than a programmable threshold distance from a selected location on a target and to control the trigger assembly to discharge the PGF at the time.

Abstract: An optical apparatus includes an optical sensor configured to capture a digital image of an animal within a view area, a processor coupled to the optical sensor, and a memory coupled to the processor. The memory is configured to store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to determine a distance to the animal, determine edges of the animal, and calculate measurements of selected portions of the animal in response to determining the edges and the distance. The memory further stores instructions that, when executed, cause processor to automatically calculate a prey score for the animal in response to calculating the measurements.

Abstract: A rifle scope includes at least one optical sensor configured to capture a video of a view area, a display, a processor coupled to the display and to the at least one optical sensor, and a memory accessible to the processor. The memory stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to receive user input that identifies a target within the video, apply a visual tag to the target within the video, and adjust the visual tag to track the target within a sequence of frames. The memory further stores instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to provide the video including the visual tag to the display.
