  • Patent number: 11231777
    Abstract: A method of controlling a device is provided. The method includes receiving eye movement information of a user. A gazed position within a display area of the device is identified based on the eye movement information of the user. A position of a cursor corresponding to the gazed position is corrected based on the eye movement information. A control command corresponding to an area within the display area of the device is generated, based on the gazed position and the eye movement information. An operation of the device is controlled based on the control command.

  • Publication number: 20210187943
    Abstract: Apparatus and method for a painting machine are provided. The painting machine may include an end effector controlled by custom software. The painting machine may include a self-contained medium circulation system. The custom control software may be capable of coordinated n-axis manipulation of an end. Illustrative end effectors may include an inkjet head, brush, air brush or any suitable tool for applying ink, paint, color and/or texture to a surface. For example an end effector may utilize oil-based ink or ultraviolet-cured ink. Illustrative surfaces may include canvas, paper, brick, glass etc. The custom control software may control manipulation of the end effector based on a variety of electronic inputs. The custom software may manipulate different end effectors in different ways depending on the input data, type of ink/paint being used, type of surface receiving the ink/paint or any other variable.
