Patent number: 12182714Abstract: A method of identifying a defensive alignment and an offensive alignment in a set-piece is disclosed herein. A computing system receives one or more streams of tracking data. The computing system identifies a set-piece contained in the one or more streams of tracking data. The computing system identifies a defensive alignment of a first team and an offensive alignment of a second team. The computing system extracts, via a convolutional neural network, one or more features corresponding to a type of defensive alignment implemented by the first team by passing the set-piece through the convolutional neural network. The computing system scans the set-piece, via a machine learning algorithm, to identify one or more features indicative of a type of offensive alignment implemented by the second team. The computing system infers the type of defensive alignment implemented by the first team.Type: GrantFiled: January 22, 2019Date of Patent: December 31, 2024Assignee: STATS LLCInventors: Paul Power, Jennifer Hobbs, Patrick Lucey

Patent number: 12174070Abstract: A spatial Fourier transform spectrometer is disclosed. The Fourier transform spectrometer includes a Fabry-Perot interferometer with first and second optical surfaces. The gap between the first and second optical surfaces spatially varies in a direction that is orthogonal to the optical axis of the Fourier transform spectrometer. The Fabry-Perot interferometer creates an interference pattern from input light. An image of the interference pattern is captured by a detector, which is communicatively coupled to a processor. The processor is configured to process the interference pattern image to determine information about the spectral content of the input light.Type: GrantFiled: August 15, 2022Date of Patent: December 24, 2024Assignee: University of HawaiiInventor: Paul Lucey

Patent number: 5976075Abstract: An endoscope system according to the present invention is characterized by an imaging assembly that a user can alternatively attach to a first deployment assembly and to a second deployment assembly. The image assembly has a distal end configured for detecting image information and a proximal end configured for delivering the image information to a location remote from the imaging assembly distal end. The deployment assembly for deploying the imaging assembly includes a support member and a connecting member. The connecting member is carried on the support member and is removably and replaceably mountable with the imaging assembly housing for connecting the support member to the imaging assembly.Type: GrantFiled: December 15, 1997Date of Patent: November 2, 1999Assignees: University of Massachusetts, Smith & Nephew, Inc.Inventors: Richard Beane, Steven W.

Patent number: 5808813Abstract: A variable-focus variable-magnification optical coupler is provided, for coupling an endoscope to a variety of different cameras having image planes at different positions while maintaining "true-zoom" functioning of the optical coupler. By "true-zoom", it is meant that the focal length of the optical coupler's lens system can be varied without having the image out of focus. That is, once an image is focussed with the optical coupler, the image remains in focus even when the size of the image is changed by a zoom lens of the coupler. In one embodiment, the optical coupler includes an adjustment mechanism which is actuated to move a focus lens and a zoom lens assembly together along the length of the coupler relative to a camera mount. In another embodiment, an adjustment mechanism moves a back focal lens is moved relative to the camera mount to account for the different image plane of the camera.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 1996Date of Patent: September 15, 1998Assignee: Smith & Nephew, Inc.Inventors: Paul Lucey, Yuri Kazakevich
