Patent number: 11811841Abstract: Visual content to be displayed on a display of a user device is received. Obfuscation data for obscuring the visual content is generated and the obscured visual content is displayed on the display. A request to stop obscuring the visual content is transmitted from the user device to a remote device, in response to a drag gesture detected at the user device. As the drag gesture is performed, the obfuscation data is modified to reduce a level of obfuscation applied to the visual content before the request has been accepted, so that the visual content remains obscured but with a lower level of obfuscation. If the request is subsequently accepted at the remote device, the display is controlled to stop obscuring the visual content, thereby rendering the visual content fully visible on the display.Type: GrantFiled: March 2, 2022Date of Patent: November 7, 2023Assignee: Streamsure Solutions LimitedInventor: James William Rands

Publication number: 20230333561Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for controlling device movement based on a movement command. Issues on accurately controlling movement of a device such as a programmable robot and rover are addressed by first determining a command type of the movement command, followed by determining specific types of controllers for a high-level controller and a low-level controller based on the determined command type. When the command type is a linear movement, a Proportional-Integral-Derivative (PID) controller is used at the high-level controller and a Proportional/Proportional-Integral (PPI) controller is used at the low-level controller to accurately control a target distance. When the command type is an angular movement, the PPI controller is used at the high-level controller and the PID controller is used at the low-level controller to accurate control the end-heading of the device.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 21, 2022Publication date: October 19, 2023Applicant: SPHERO, INC.Inventors: David E.
