Abstract: A system and method are described for compensating for frequency and phase offsets in a multiple antenna system (MAS) with multi-user (MU) transmissions (“MU-MAS”).

Abstract: A system for dynamically adapting the communication characteristics of a multiple antenna system (MAS) with multi-user (MU) transmissions (defined with the acronym MU-MAS), such as a distributed-input distributed-output (DIDO) communication system. For example, a system according to one embodiment of the invention comprises: one or more coding modulation units to encode and modulate information bits for each of a plurality of wireless client devices to produce encoded and modulated information bits; one or more mapping units to map the encoded and modulated information bits to complex symbols; and a MU-MAS or DIDO configurator unit to determine a subset of users and a MU-MAS or DIDO transmission mode based on channel characterization data obtained through feedback from the wireless client devices and to responsively control the coding modulation units and mapping units.

Abstract: A system is described for capturing images comprising: a display for displaying graphical images and text; a plurality of apertures formed in the display; an image detector array configured behind the display and configured to sense light transmitted through the apertures in the display, the light reflected from a subject positioned in front of the display; and image processing logic to generate image data using the light transmitted through the apertures, the image data representing an image of a subject.

Abstract: A method is described comprising: applying phosphorescent paint to specified regions of a performer's face and/or body; strobing a light source on and off, the light source charging the phosphorescent paint when on; and strobing the shutters of a first plurality of cameras synchronously with the strobing of the light source to capture images of the phosphorescent paint, wherein the shutters are open when the light source is off and the shutters are closed when the light source is open.
