  • Publication number: 20240118744
    Abstract: Systems and processes for an integrated sensor framework are provided. For example, a first electronic device receives at least one input including sensor data from a second device. A representation of a physical environment associated with the first electronic device is obtained based on sensor data from the first electronic device and the sensor data from the second device. Movement information corresponding to movement of an object within the physical environment is identified. Event information is determined corresponding to activity within the physical environment, wherein the event information is determined based on the identified movement information and the representation of the physical environment. Accordingly, an output is provided to the user based on the event information.

  • Patent number: 11897463
    Abstract: Implementations a method using a collision detection device associated with a user to detect a moving object in an environment and provide an alert to the user are provided. In some implementations the environment comprises at least one transmitter of opportunity. In some implementations, the collision detection device comprises a receiver and a processor. In some implementations, the method comprises receiving at the collision detection device Wi-Fi signals reflected from the moving object where the Wi-Fi signals originate from a Wi-Fi source not associated with the moving object. The method further comprises detecting, measuring, and tracking the Doppler effect of the Wi-Fi signals at the collision detection device to track velocity vector relative to the collision detection device. The method further comprises calculating the time of arrival of the moving object based on the velocity vector relative to the location of the collision detection device.
