Abstract: In a general aspect, a method for determining a location of motion detected by wireless communication devices in a wireless communication network includes obtaining motion data associated with a first time frame. The motion data includes a set of motion indicator values. The method also includes generating a first probability vector based on the set of motion indicator values and obtaining a second probability vector generated from motion data associated with a prior time frame. The method additionally includes obtaining a transition probability matrix that includes transition values and non-transition values. The method further includes determining, by operation of a data processing apparatus, a location of the motion detected from the wireless signals exchanged during the first time frame.

Abstract: Disclosed are co-polymers which are produced from reactive monomer mixtures and which have both high refractive index and a high Abbe number. These materials are well suited for use as implantable ophthalmic devices and have a refractive index which may be edited through application of energy. When used for an intraocular lens, the high refractive index allows for a thin lens which compresses to allow a small incision size.

Abstract: A method of detecting a seizure includes collecting volatile organic compounds with a collector material of a collector; separating a mixture of the volatile organic compounds into its constituent chemicals with a gas chromatography column; ionizing the constituent chemicals to create ionized chemicals and detecting the ionized chemicals; and analyzing the ionized chemicals to identify seizure-indicative volatile organic compounds.

Abstract: In a general aspect, a motion detection system detects gestures (e.g., human gestures) and initiates actions in response to the detected gestures. In some aspects, channel information is obtained based on wireless signals transmitted through a space by one or more wireless communication devices. A gesture recognition engine analyzes the channel information to detect a gesture (e.g., a predetermined gesture sequence) in the space. An action to be initiated in response to the detected gesture is identified. An instruction to perform the action is sent to a network-connected device associated with the space.

Abstract: In a general aspect, a method is presented for determining a motion zone for a location of motion detected by wireless signals. In some aspects, the method includes obtaining a time series of statistical parameters derived from sets of channel response data. The method also includes identifying time intervals in the time series of statistical parameters, each time interval associated with a respective motion zone in the space. The method additionally includes determining, by analyzing multiple time windows within each of the time intervals, ranges of motion-zone parameters associated with each respective motion zone. The method further includes storing, in a database of a motion detection system, the ranges of motion-zone parameters for the respective motion zones. The ranges of motion-zone parameters are used to identify one of the motion zones based on a motion event detected by the motion detection system.
