  • Method and system of enforcing privacy policies for mobile sensory devices
    Patent number: 10592687
    Abstract: A method and device for classifying collected images. The method and device include instructions to compare a captured image to a known set of images to determine the location depicted therein; and applying a classification upon the image based upon the determined location depicted therein and whether the determined location indicates that the image has the potential to depict privacy sensitive information.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 9, 2014
    Date of Patent: March 17, 2020
    Assignees: Indiana University Research and Technology Corporation, United States of America as Represented by The Secretary of The Navy
    Inventors: Apu Kapadia, Robert E. Templeman, David Crandall, Mohammed Korayem
  • Method and apparatus for virtual 3D model generation and navigation using opportunistically captured images
    Patent number: 9998684
    Abstract: A method and device for opportunistically collecting images of a location via a mobile device, the device including algorithms that allow the selective winnowing of collected images to facilitate the creation of a 3D model from the images while minimizing the storage needed to hold the pictures.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 15, 2014
    Date of Patent: June 12, 2018
    Assignees: Indiana University Research and Technology Corporation, The United States of America as Represented by the Secretary of the Navy
    Inventors: Apu Kapadia, Md Zahidur Rahman, David Crandall, Robert E. Templeman

  • System and method for measuring power generated during legged locomotion
    Patent number: 8744783
    Abstract: A system and method is provided for calculating power generated by a body during legged locomotion. The system includes at least one accelerometer to measure acceleration of the body during legged locomotion, at least one force sensor to measure a plurality of propulsive force impulses created by the body during legged locomotion, and a processor configured to calculate the power generated by the body during legged locomotion using output signals from both the at least one accelerometer and the at least one force sensor.
