  • Patent number: 11902901
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for the detection of human presence in front of a plurality of sensors such as those of speakers and a device with a processor, such as a television. Data gathered from the plurality of sensors may be analyzed by the processor to determine if one or more humans are present proximate to the device. Based on the determined presence or absence of one or more humans, further actions including, inter alia, activating a sleep mode for the one or more humans, shutting off the device in a green mode, or alerting an owner-user to the presence of an intruder can be taken.

  • Publication number: 20240031646
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for the detection of human presence in an energy efficient manner using a plurality of sensors such as those of a battery-powered device such as a television remote, and a device with a processor, such as a television. Data gathered from an initial television WiFi radio scan, or an initial low-powered detection scan from the television remote, may be analyzed by the processor to determine a potential presence of one or more humans are present proximate to the device. If there is such a potential presence, the device remote can enter a full-powered detection mode to accurately determine the presence or absence of one or more humans, and take further actions.

  • Publication number: 20220256467
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for the detection of human presence in front of a plurality of sensors such as those of speakers and a device with a processor, such as a television. Data gathered from the plurality of sensors may be analyzed by the processor to determine if one or more humans are present proximate to the device. Based on the determined presence or absence of one or more humans, further actions including, inter alia, activating a sleep mode for the one or more humans, shutting off the device in a green mode, or alerting an owner-user to the presence of an intruder can be taken.

  • Publication number: 20220038775
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for detecting human presence in front of a plurality of sensors, such as speaker sensors, and a device with a processor, such as a television. An example method includes varying, during a collection routine, a respective signal strength of one or more of a plurality of transmitters. The example method further includes receiving results of the collection routine in a form of raw data from a plurality of sensors. The example method further includes determining, by at least one processor, a respective geographical position of one or more humans present within a predetermined geographical range of the at least one processor based on the raw data from the plurality of sensors. Subsequently, the example method includes executing an action based on the respective geographical position of the one or more humans.
