Abstract: Systems and methods include an image capture component configured to capture infrared images of a scene, and a logic device configured to identify a target in the images, acquire temperature data associated with the target based on the images, evaluate the temperature data and determine a corresponding temperature classification, and process the identified target in accordance with the temperature classification. The logic device identifies a person and tracks the person across a subset of the images, identify a measurement location for the target in a subset of the images based on target feature points identified by a neural network, and measure a temperature of the location using corresponding values from one or more captured thermal images. The logic device is further configured calculate a core body temperature of the target using the temperature data to determine whether the target has a fever and calibrate using one or more black bodies.

Abstract: A multi-user video recorded which provides filtering of the recorded program and/or electronic program guide on a user-by-user basis. Users can be prevented from seeing specified channels, programs, etc. in the EPG, and/or from viewing them. Users can be prevented from seeing and/or watching programs that other users have recorded on the video recorder.

Abstract: An improved audio-visual playback system which identifies and displays only high-interest segments of a program, according to peaks or thresholds of positive and negative user interaction events from a multitude of other users of the program. A personal video recorder which receives a history of positive user interaction events such as “thumbs up” approval events, jump backward events, and rewind events, and negative user interaction events such as “thumbs down” disapproval events, jump forward events, and fast forward events. If prior viewers gave high interest approval for a segment, either by affirmatively voting “thumbs up” or by rewatching the segment, the playback system plays that segment; otherwise the segment is skipped or muted, such that user can watch only the “highlights”.

Abstract: Vectorscope automatic burst positioning for properly aligning a vectorscope display uses a microprocessor (22) to control a phase shifter (14) according to the amplitudes of the chrominance components demodulated from an input color video signal during the burst interval. The demodulated chrominance components are sampled and digitized (18), and the digitized values are tested to determine whether they fall within a predetermined window. The microprocessor applies a statistical approach over a range of phase values to compute a final phase control signal value for the phase shifter that properly aligns the vectorscope display.
