  • SUBSTITUTIONARY PORTABLE CALIBRATION DEVICE METHOD FOR CORRECTION OF MAGNETOMETER OF ACCESS POINT
    Publication number: 20240142547
    Abstract: A method for calibrating a magnetometer of a device is provided. The method includes collecting, with a portable calibration device having a magnetometer, magnetic field measurements in a spatial region about a mounting location where the device is to be installed for operation, estimating magnetometer compensation parameters to correct for magnetic field distortion at the mounting location based on the magnetic field measurements collected by the portable calibration device, and configuring the device installed at the mounting location based on the magnetometer compensation parameters.

  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR AGGREGATING AND CURATING MEDIA CONTENT
    Publication number: 20170068741
    Abstract: A method and system for aggregating and curating a plurality of media content pieces. The method including the steps of aggregating a plurality of media content pieces from various sources and curating each of the plurality of media content pieces to determine metadata associated with each of the plurality of media content pieces including an ideology level for each of the media content pieces. Each of the media content pieces and determined metadata are stored in a database. The stored/aggregated media content pieces are then made accessible to a user using a search feature that selects at least one of the plurality of media content pieces based upon metadata stored in the database.

  • Continually Updating a Channel of Aggregated and Curated Media Content Using Metadata
    Publication number: 20160352854
    Abstract: A method and system for aggregating and curating a plurality of media content pieces. The method including the steps of aggregating a plurality of media content pieces from various sources and curating each of the plurality of media content pieces to determine metadata associated with each of the plurality of media content pieces including an ideology level for each of the media content pieces. Each of the media content pieces and determined metadata are stored in a database. The stored/aggregated media content pieces are then made accessible to a user using a search feature that selects at least one of the plurality of media content pieces based upon metadata stored in the database. A user also can define a channel of media using metadata. The system selects, and continually updates, a list of media content pieces matching the metadata.
