Patents by Inventor Marc Cameron

Marc Cameron has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 11828596
    Abstract: A system and method for aligning projection of an optical indicia on a surface of a large object is disclosed. A reference is disposed in proximity to the object. The reference includes a plurality of markers spaced at intermittent locations. A projection system projects optical indicia onto the surface of the object. A detection system detects the markers disposed upon the reference and signals an image of the markers to a processor for the processor to register a location of the projection system relative to the reference. The reference is aligned with a feature disposed upon the object enabling registration of the markers to the object. A location of the projection system relative to the object is established enabling the projection system to project the optical indicia onto the object to a predetermined location.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11454810
    Abstract: A method of reducing a chance of interference between operations of two electromagnetic systems (e.g., AR/VR systems) is provided. The method includes determining one or more first frequencies at which a first electromagnetic system is operating, identifying one or more second frequencies that do not interfere with the determined one or more first frequencies, and setting a second electromagnetic system to operate at the identified one or more second frequencies. Each of the first and the second electromagnetic systems includes a respective magnetic transmitter configured to generate magnetic fields, and a respective magnetic sensor configured to generate signals based on characteristics of the magnetic fields received at the magnetic sensor (e.g., from the respective magnetic transmitter).
