  • Publication number: 20240121238
    Abstract: The technology disclosed teaches performing biometric app free authentication or authorization of a user to access a web-based application, with the user interacting with a workstation browser running on a workstation to access the web-based application using built-in resources of a smart/mobile device. A web application uses methods to authenticate and authorize users before the users are permitted to access the application. A demand exists for improving the security and ease of use of authentication and access management. Access management and authentication of users has evolved to more than just entering a username and password. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) is common. The numerous paths involved in authentication use numerous forms of identification of users during the authentication journey.

  • Patent number: 11927668
    Abstract: Disclosed are techniques for employing deep learning to analyze radar signals. In an aspect, an on-board computer of a host vehicle receives, from a radar sensor of the vehicle, a plurality of radar frames, executes a neural network on a subset of the plurality of radar frames, and detects one or more objects in the subset of the plurality of radar frames based on execution of the neural network on the subset of the plurality of radar frames. Further, techniques for transforming polar coordinates to Cartesian coordinates in a neural network are disclosed. In an aspect, a neural network receives a plurality of radar frames in polar coordinate space, a polar-to-Cartesian transformation layer of the neural network transforms the plurality of radar frames to Cartesian coordinate space, and the neural network outputs the plurality of radar frames in the Cartesian coordinate space.

  • Patent number: 11899132
    Abstract: Embodiments provided herein allow for identification of one or more regions of interest in a radar return signal that would be suitable for selected application of super-resolution processing. One or more super-resolution processing techniques can be applied to the identified regions of interest. The selective application of super-resolution processing techniques can reduce processing requirements and overall system delay. The output data of the super-resolution processing can be provided to a mobile computer system. The output data of the super-resolution processing can also be used to reconfigure the radar radio frequency front end to beam form the radar signal in region of the detected objects. The mobile computer system can use the output data for implementation of deep learning techniques. The deep learning techniques enable the vehicle to identify and classify detected objects for use in automated driving processes.

  • Patent number: 11722626
    Abstract: A system determines an object-design for a three-dimensional model of an object. The object-design may exhibit a design continuity. The system breaks the object-design in to spatial patterns corresponding to the discrete surfaces making up the outward surface of the object. The system then generates flattened patterns by projecting the spatial patterns into a two-dimensional plane. The system prints the flattened patterns on to designated regions of material sheets in an orientation that preserves the design continuity of the object-design. The regions may be extracted from the sheets and then joined at their edges to form a cover for object that exhibits the continuity of the object design.
