Abstract: Embodiments of the present systems and methods may provide techniques that may provide the capability to autonomously and automatically identify cases of suspected abuse, which may then be subject to follow up review and action. For example, in an embodiment, a system for identifying potential physical abuse in a location may comprise at least one video camera provided at the location and a computer system comprising a processor, memory accessible by the processor, and computer program instructions stored in the memory and executable by the processor to cause the computer system to perform: receiving video data from the at least one video camera, identifying potential physical abuse from the video data, the identification being to within a predetermined confidence level, and transmitting information indicating that a potential human threat has been identified.

Abstract: Optimization algorithms and techniques to predict and simulate motion and various performance of a digital human model. The human body is modeled as a kinematics system represented by a series of segments connected by joints that represent musculoskeletal joints such as the wrist, elbow, shoulder, clavicle and pelvis. Optimization tools are used to determine the rotation at each degree of freedom of each joint that minimizes a performance measure.

Abstract: A graphical interface system and method of use allows robot programs to be graphically created and visualized in three dimensional space in a CAD environment. Using either on-line or off-line techniques, an operator enters robot positions and orientations in space into the interface to define robot configurations. Trajectories between configurations are entered or generated and are displayed along with the configurations. The state of the end effector is also entered and visually communicated. A special state can be designated. The special state has associated therewith programming code for controlling robot actions at a configuration and the robot environment at the configuration. When such a state is designated by the user, programming code written in a special language is entered and stored in association with a particular configuration. After all robot configurations, states and trajectories are entered, the system creates robot control data.
