Publication number: 20240104793Abstract: Techniques are disclosed to add augmented reality to a sub-view of a high resolution central video feed. In various embodiments, a central video feed is received from a first camera on a first recurring basis and time-stamped position information is received from a tracking system on a second recurring basis. The central video feed is calibrated against a spatial region encompassed by the central video feed. The received time-stamped position information and a determined plurality of tiles associated with at least one frame of the central video feed are used to define a first sub-view of the central video feed. The first sub-view and a homography defining placement of augmented reality elements on the at least one frame of the central video feed are provided as output to a device configured to use the first sub-view and the homography display the first sub-view.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 5, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Erik Schwartz, Michael Naquin, Christopher Brown, Steve Xing, Pawel Czarnecki, Charles D. Ebersol, Anne Gerhart

Publication number: 20240085513Abstract: A process to partition a video feed to segment live player activity includes receiving, on a first recurring basis, a transmission of a central video feed from a first camera. The central video feed is calibrated against a spatial region represented in at least two dimensions that is encompassed by the central video feed. The process includes receiving, on a second recurring basis, a respective time-stamped position information from each tracking device in a plurality of tracking devices. Each tracking device is worn by a corresponding subject on the spatial region and transmits positional information that describes a time-stamped position of the corresponding subject in the spatial region. The process uses the received information and the calibration to define a first sub-view of the central video feed associated with a first subject. The first sub-view comprises a corresponding sub-frame associated with the first subject.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 20, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Erik Schwartz, Michael Naquin, Christopher Brown, Steve Xing, Pawel Czarnecki, Charles D.

Patent number: 11918912Abstract: A process to track and provide positional information for display on a remote device includes receiving, on a first recurring basis, time-stamped position information of participant(s) in a competition. The time-stamped position information is captured by a telemetry tracking system during the competition and describes a time-stamped position of each of one or more corresponding participants in a predetermined spatial region. The process includes communicating at least a subset of time-stamped position information to the remote device on a second recurring basis. The remote device uses the time-stamped position information to overlay a representation of one or more of said participants onto a first virtual reproduction of at least a relevant portion of the predetermined spatial region to produce and display an instance of a compiled virtual scene that shows a respective position of each of the participant(s) on the first virtual reproduction of the predetermined spatial region.Type: GrantFiled: March 15, 2022Date of Patent: March 5, 2024Assignee: Infinite Athlete, Inc.Inventors: Erik Schwartz, Michael Naquin, Christopher Brown, Steve Xing, Pawel Czarnecki, Charles D.

Patent number: 11813529Abstract: In an embodiment, a process to predict an outcome of a competition includes receiving time-stamped position information of participant(s), the time-stamped position information captured by a telemetry tracking system during the competition. The process includes calculating while the competition is ongoing a covariate parameter for each of one or more participants at a point in time, where each respective covariate parameter is derived from the time-stamped position information of a corresponding participant at the point in time. The process includes predicting the outcome of the competition, as of the point in time, based at least in part on (i) a difference between a calculated competitor strength of the first competitor the second competitor based on historical data associated with the competitors, and (ii) the calculated first covariate parameter(s).Type: GrantFiled: March 22, 2022Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Tempus Ex Machina, Inc.Inventors: Erik Schwartz, Michael Naquin, Christopher Brown, Steve Xing, Pawel Czarnecki, Charles D.

Patent number: 11112016Abstract: A valve assembly is provided, the valve assembly comprising a body that defines a fluid flow path between an inlet and an outlet with a frangible member between the inlet and the outlet across the fluid flow path so as to block fluid flow The valve assembly also includes a member for rupturing the frangible member, a spring biasing the rupturing member into contact with the frangible member and a member for retaining the rupturing member away from the frangible member. A magnet is spaced apart from the retaining member, and a non-magnetic sleeve is disposed between the magnet and the retaining member. The non-magnetic sleeve blocks a magnetic field provided by the magnet. Also included is a trigger for removing the non-magnetic sleeve, wherein, when the non-magnetic sleeve is removed, in use, the magnetic field attracts the retaining member to release the rupturing member to cause rupture of the frangible member.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2019Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: GOODRICH CORPORATIONInventors: Ćukasz Wiktorko, Pawel Czarnecki
