Publication number: 20250102317Abstract: An indoor location is mapped into a grid comprising grid cells, each cell associated with items or objects detected as being present in the corresponding cell. The grid, grid cells, and linked items and/or objects are generated and updated using an Augmented Reality (AR) algorithm that maps a physical environment into cells and measures distances and directions within the environment relative to each cell. Walking paths (routes) to the items within the indoor location are generated using the grid information. As a user walks a path, the user's position within the indoor location is mapped and tracked to the cells and the path revised based on the user's actual position. A user device provides video via an AR application to track the user's position; a rendering of the position and path are superimposed within the video being viewed by the user on the user-operated device.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 16, 2024Publication date: March 27, 2025Inventors: Ryan Scott Elliott, John Edward Haney, Kip Oliver Morgan, Andrew Michael Reusche

Patent number: 9681091Abstract: A system and method as described herein involve materially improving the quality of encoded content generated on systems or platforms such as remote or CPE (Customer Premises Equipment) platforms. An aspect of the described system and method comprises profiling the source content, for example, on a per title basis, and generating profile information as a set of metadata that reflects the optimal transcoding parameters. This metadata is transmitted along with the content to be transcoded to the remote device which can then perform a superior process on the content, compared to a generic non-hinted transcode. Other aspects of the described system and method comprise separation of profiling analysis from the actual transcoding at a remote location, and encapsulation of profile information with the program content for delivery to the remote premises.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2012Date of Patent: June 13, 2017Assignee: THOMSON LICENSINGInventor: Thomas Edward Elliott

Patent number: 9400553Abstract: Embodiments that relate to scaling a visual element displayed via a display device are disclosed. In one embodiment a method includes receiving and using gaze tracking data to determine gaze locations at which a user is gazing on the display device. Depth tracking data is received and used to determine that a user's pointer is at a predetermined location. In response, a locked gaze location on the screen is locked, where the locked gaze location includes at least a portion of the visual element. In response to locking the locked gaze location, the visual element is programmatically scaled by a predetermined amount to an enlarged size. A user input selecting the visual element is then received.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2013Date of Patent: July 26, 2016Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLCInventors: Bernard James Kerr, Edward Elliott, Morgan Kolya Venable

Publication number: 20140052848Abstract: A technique involves placing a data acceleration engine between an end user device and a host device. The host device provides data associated with a client application to the data acceleration engine, which provides the data to the end user device. If the data acceleration engine is on the host device, content from a datastore is served to the data acceleration engine as if the data acceleration engine were a client running the client application locally; therefore, latency normally associated with a network between the content datastore and the client device is eliminated. If the data acceleration engine is on the end user device and has received at least some data in advance of a relevant query, responses to the query also do not have latency associated with a network. The data acceleration engine can be implemented as a series of data acceleration engines between end user and host devices.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 16, 2013Publication date: February 20, 2014Applicant: DATA ACCELERATOR LTD.Inventors: Matthew Clothier, Sean Corbett, Edward Elliott, Martin Kirkby, Robert A'Court, Andrew McNeil

Patent number: 6213030Abstract: Apparatus for the treatment of volatile material(s) in contaminated material(s) including a retort assembly which includes a rotatable retort disposed at least partially within a combustion chamber with a heater to indirectly heat the contents of the rotatable retort. A feeder feeds the contaminated material(s) to the retort. The apparatus further includes a pathway for passing contaminated material(s) to the retort and a conduit for passing the combustion gases from an afterburner to the retort assembly to provide additional heat for heating the contaminated material in the retort. The apparatus may also include a high temperature filter which can filter the volatiles before entering the afterburner.Type: GrantFiled: May 3, 1999Date of Patent: April 10, 2001Assignee: Tox Free SystemsInventors: Struan Glen Robertson, Edward Elliott Finsten
