  • Publication number: 20190065960
    Abstract: An autonomous personal companion executing a method including capturing data related to user behavior. Patterns of user behavior are identified in the data and classified using predefined patterns associated with corresponding predefined tags to generate a collected set of one or more tags. The collected set is compared to sets of predefined tags of a plurality of scenarios, each to one or more predefined patterns of user behavior and a corresponding set of predefined tags. A weight is assigned to each of the sets of predefined tags, wherein each weight defines a corresponding match quality between the collected set of tags and a corresponding set of predefined tags. The sets of predefined tags are sorted by weight in descending order. A matched scenario is selected for the collected set of tags that is associated with a matched set of predefined tags having a corresponding weight having the highest match quality.

  • Patent number: 10155154
    Abstract: To derive three dimensional (3D) position and orientation of a 3-axis (or more) magnetometer/accelerometer device (such as may be implemented in VR or AR headset or computer game controller) without line of sight constraints, a spinning magnetic field is used to discriminate and remove the external (Earth's) magnetic field from the spinning magnetic field. This reduces the problem to finding the distance to the source of the magnetic field using a calibration table (or formula), finding two angles describing the deviation of the magnetic sensor from the axis of rotation of the spinning magnetic field and the phase around this axis, and from these values deriving the orientation of the sensor.
