Abstract: A device includes a processor, a radar sensor with a transmitter, a first receiver, and a second receiver. The device operates the sensor in a first operational mode that utilizes the transmitter and the first receiver, but not the second receiver. The device detects, using the sensor in the first operational mode, possible motion of an object within a threshold distance from the sensor. Responsive to detecting possible motion of the object, the device transitions the sensor from the first to a second operational mode that utilizes the transmitter and the first and second receivers. The device transmits, while using the sensor in the first operational mode, a first number of radar frames in a first time interval and transmits, while using the sensor in the second operational mode, a second number of radar frames in the first time interval, the second number being greater than the first number.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for facilitating the placement of props on maps by an automated prop placement tool that makes use of a trained machine learning mechanism. The machine learning mechanism is trained based on one or more training maps upon which props have been placed. The machine learning mechanism may be trained to suggest placement based on (a) spatial rules relating, (b) prop-specific rules, (c) prop-to-fixed-object distances between props and map structures, and (d) distances between props. Once the machine learning mechanism is trained, the prop placement tool may be provided as input (a) map data that defines a target map and (b) prop data that specifies the set of target props to be placed on the target map. Based on this input and the machine learning mechanism's trained model, the prop placement tool outputs a suggested placement, for each of the target props, on the target map.
