  • Publication number: 20200066294
    Abstract: System and method for analyzing audio data are provided. Audio data captured by one or more audio sensors included in a wearable apparatus from an environment of a wearer of the wearable apparatus may be obtained. The audio data may be analyzed to detect a repetition in the audio data, the repetition may comprise a first occurrence of a repeated element followed by one or more successive occurrences of the repeated element. The audio data may be analyzed to determine whether the repetition is meaningful. The audio data may be analyzed to determine which of the one or more successive occurrences of the repeated element were produced by the wearer. A feedback may be provided to a user when the repetition is meaningless and all of the one or more successive occurrences of the repeated element were produced by the wearer.

  • Publication number: 20190258858
    Abstract: Systems and methods for hybrid processing of construction site images are provided. For example, image data captured from a construction site using at least one image sensor may be obtained. The image data may be analyzed to attempt to recognize an object depicted in the image data.
