  • Patent number: 11388682
    Abstract: In one example, a device may include a transceiver to receive a signal at a first transmit power from an access point via a wireless network connection. The first transmit power may be based on a feedback received signal strength indicator (RSSI) value. Further, the device may include a noise detection unit to determine device noise generated in the device and a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) monitoring unit to determine that an SNR value associated with the wireless network connection falls below a threshold due to the device noise. Furthermore, the device may include a control unit to modify the feedback RSSI value upon determining that the SNR value falls below the threshold and transmit the modified feedback RSSI value to the access point via the transceiver.

  • Publication number: 20220047244
    Abstract: An automated three dimensional mapping and display system for a diagnostic ultrasound system is presented. According to the invention, ultrasound probe position registration is automated, the position of each pixel in the ultrasound image in reference to selected anatomical references is calculated, and specified information is stored on command. The system, during real time ultrasound scanning, enables the ultrasound probe position and orientation to be continuously displayed over a body or body part diagram, thereby facilitating scanning and images interpretation of stored information. The system can then record single or multiple ultrasound free hand two-dimensional (also ā€œ2Dā€) frames in a video sequence (clip) or cine loop wherein multiple 2D frames of one or more video sequences corresponding to a scanned volume can be reconstructed in three-dimensional (also ā€œ3Dā€) volume images corresponding to the scanned region, using known 3D reconstruction algorithms.

    Abstract: A calibration method (1) for a recording device (2). The method includes receiving, with a data interface (11) of a data processing system (3), a first data set (21) with an image and three dimensional information generated by the recording device (2). At least one person (4), within a field of view (8) of the recording device (2), is detected with an object detection component (12). Two or more attributes (5), of the person (4), are determined by an attribute assignment component (13). The attributes include an interest factor for an object and a location of the person (4). A descriptor (9) is generated based on the determined attributes (5). The data processing system calculates an attention model with a discretized space within the field of view based on the descriptor(s).
