  • Publication number: 20250352087
    Abstract: The inventors discovered that three-dimensional posture and time series motion data are capable of providing robust, accurate and objective assessments of patient musculoskeletal health. Through the coupling of novel kinematic modeling and dimensionality reduction techniques, the invention is able to utilize posture and motion trajectory data in order to identify various neuromuscular and musculoskeletal conditions previously indistinguishable through the use of conventional clinical assessments. Further, by leveraging recent advancements in motion capture technologies, the invention provides approaches and systems adapted for remote implementation, allowing for quantitative and objective assessments to be collected over time and at reduced cost. Methods of generating a biomechanical assessment for a patient are provided.

  • Publication number: 20190286216
    Abstract: Methods and systems for attention-based rendering on an entertainment system are provided. A tracking device captures data associated with a user, which is used to determine that a user has reacted (e.g., visually or emotionally) to a particular part of the screen. The processing power is increased in this part of the screen, which increases detail and fidelity of the graphics and/or updating speed. The processing power in the areas of the screen that the user is not paying attention to is decreased and diverted from those areas, resulting in decreased detail and fidelity of the graphics and/or decreased updating speed.
