Patent number: 10488975Abstract: Embodiments are directed to gesture recognition in a computing device. Touch-based input by the user is monitored based on an output from a touch sensor. Gestures are directed from among the touch-based input. The detected gestures are analyzed to assign gesture characteristic profiles to the detected gestures according to profiling criteria. A sequential event log is tabulated representing counts of series of gestures based on assigned characteristic profiles and on temporal sequencing of the gestures. Circumstances for invocation of gesture detection re-calibration are assessed based on the tabulated series of gestures.Type: GrantFiled: December 23, 2015Date of Patent: November 26, 2019Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Fai Yeung, Jinkui Ren, Tingqian Li, Tong Chen, Gregory Meunier

Patent number: 10062353Abstract: This disclosure is directed to a system to compensate for visual impairment. The system may comprise, for example, a frame wearable by a user to which is mounted at least sensing circuitry and display circuitry. The sensing circuitry may sense at least visible data and depth data. Control circuitry may then cause the display circuitry to visibly present the depth to the user based on the visible data and depth data. For example, the display circuitry may present visible indicia indicating depth to appear superimposed on the field of view to indicate different depths in the field of view, or may alter the appearance of objects in the field of view based on the depth of each object. The system may also be capable of sensing a particular trigger event, and in response may initiate sensing and presentation for a peripheral field of view of the user.Type: GrantFiled: June 27, 2016Date of Patent: August 28, 2018Assignee: Intel CorporationInventors: Fai Yeung, John Wei, Murat Yener
