  • Patent number: 12293532
    Abstract: A method of depth map completion is described. A color map and a sparse depth map of a target scenario can be received. Resolutions of the color map and the sparse depth map are adjusted to generate n pairs of color maps and sparse depth maps of n different resolutions. The n pairs of color maps and the sparse depth maps can be processed to generate n prediction result maps using a cascade hourglass network including n levels of hourglass networks. Each of the n pair is input to a respective one of the n levels to generate the respective one of the n prediction result maps. The n prediction result maps each include a dense depth map of the same resolution as the corresponding pair. A final dense depth map of the target scenario can be generated according to the dense depth maps.

  • Publication number: 20240227203
    Abstract: In a state estimation method for a legged robot, first sensor information and second sensor information of the legged robot are received. First state information of the legged robot for a period of time is determined, via a first Kalman filter, based on the first sensor information and the second sensor information. Third sensor information of the legged robot is received. Second state information of the legged robot is determined, via a second Kalman filter, based on the third sensor information and the first state information for the period of time. First state information of the legged robot at a current time is updated based on the second state information of the legged robot, to determine state information of the legged robot at the current time.

  • Publication number: 20230077413
    Abstract: Onboarding one or more wireless devices to different wireless networks in a wireless system. A gateway/access point apparatus selects from a user interface a trigger service set identifier (SSID) among a plurality of available onboarding trigger SSIDs, each onboarding trigger SSID corresponding to a different wireless network. The gateway/access point apparatus transmits the onboarding trigger SSID to a wireless device, initiates an onboarding procedure between the wireless device and the gateway/access point apparatus, and establish a network connection between the wireless device and a wireless network based on the onboarding procedure, the wireless network corresponding to the transmitted onboarding trigger SSID. The selecting, the transmitting, the initiating, and the establishing are performed for each of the one or more wireless devices for establishing a network connection to a different one of the one or more wireless networks using a corresponding onboarding trigger SSID.
