  • Publication number: 20240021062
    Abstract: Target monitoring and alert systems for identifying and tracking targets within radar data. Raw frame data is filtered to remove data relating to reflections from static objects. Moving targets are identified in the filtered data and their location is tracked over time generating target data. Neural networks may process the target data, calculate a fall likelihood score and generate a fall-alert if this is above an alert-threshold. A person identification module may extract the position and motion characteristics of each target from the data and generate a probabilistic identification of the target with a person.

  • Patent number: 10678348
    Abstract: A method for touch detection on an ungrounded pen enabled device includes sampling output in a frequency range of a signal emitted from a stylus over a stylus sampling window, detecting touch input from a finger or hand based on detecting a gain between a touch threshold and a stylus threshold, wherein the touch threshold is below the stylus threshold over at least two consecutive columns and two consecutive rows of the sensor and reporting coordinates of the touch input based on detecting the touch input. Stylus input is detected based on detecting a gain above a stylus threshold in at least one column and one row of the sensor and coordinates of the stylus are reported based on stylus input being detected. Sampling is performed simultaneously from both columns and rows of a grid based capacitive sensor.
