Abstract: This disclosure enables various technologies for tracking various objects (e.g., mammals, animals, humans, pets) within various defined areas (e.g., rooms, apartments, residences, vehicles, tents) to determine whether those objects satisfy or do not satisfy various criteria, signatures, or thresholds, which may relate to health, safety, or security of those objects within those defined areas. These technologies may be enabled via various radars (e.g., time-of-flight radars, Doppler radars) positioned within those defined areas to track those objects therein. For example, some of such radars may operate in a Ku-band inclusively between about 12 GHz and about 18 GHz, a K-band inclusively between about 18 GHz and about 27 GHz, or a Ka-band inclusively between about 26.5 GHz and about 40 GHz, each of which has been unexpectedly found to be technologically beneficial for tracking those objects within those defined areas.

Abstract: A flexible and scalable software system architecture for implementing multimedia applications is disclosed. In one embodiment, the flexible and scalable software system architecture includes a platform abstraction layer (PAL), a device policy manager (DPM), a media engine, a library of commons (LoC) module, system management toolsets (SMT), one or more application services, an application control unit (ACU) and a user interface transaction layer (UITL). Further, the media engine is communicatively coupled between the PAL and the ACU, the LoC module is communicatively coupled to the ACU, the DPM, the media engine, the SMT, the PAL and the UITL, the DPM is communicatively coupled to the PAL, the ACU and the media engine, the ACU is coupled between media engine and the UITL, and the SMT is communicatively coupled to the ACU, the DPM, the media engine, the LoC module, the PAL and the UITL.
