  • Human radar
    Patent number: 10593058
    Abstract: Various devices and methods detect obstacles and/or people and then communicate that information to a user. One mobile device senses people and their relative angle orientation. Then it communicates the angle to the user. An apparatus uses a sensor component to detect heat sources within a field of view. In response to an object being detected, a processing component determines whether the object is a heat source; and, if the object is a heat source, a feedback component alerts the user. One method includes receiving a notification that an object is in a field of view of a device and a temperature of the object. A determination is made as to whether the object is a person based on the temperature. In response to determining that the object is a person, a user is alerted.
