  • Publication number: 20230152652
    Abstract: Disclosed herein as methods, apparatuses, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems relating to reduction and/or identification of one or more health risks in a facility. For example, by sensing a bodily characteristic of an individual in a facility, e.g., by sensing at least one environmental characteristic. For example, by sensing surface cleanliness. For example, by tracking personnel in the facility. For example, by suggesting routes in an enclosure based at least in part in personnel concentration in the facility. Disclosed herein as methods, apparatuses, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems relating to monitoring occupancy of a facility.

  • Publication number: 20230132451
    Abstract: A network system in an enclosure includes one or more interactive targets such as tintable windows, HVAC components, sensors, computing devices, media display devices, and/or service devices. Diverse types of local and remote interfaces are employed for facilitating remote (e.g., indirect) manipulation of the interactive target(s), for example, using a digital twin (e.g., representative virtual model) of a facility and/or a mobile circuitry of a user. The environment and/or targets may be controlled according to preferences and/or requests of its user(s).

  • Publication number: 20230103284
    Abstract: An immersive digital experience for video conferencing simulates common presence of a virtual participant in a local environment. Such simulation may include (i) using a transparent media display having a portion of its pixels projecting the virtual participant's body image while keeping at least a portion of the background transparent (e.g., to visible light), (ii) disposing sensor(s) (e.g., camera) behind the transparent media display at the gaze of the participant, and/or (iii) using added virtual overlays (e.g., of plants, memorabilia, and/or furniture) to the virtual image (e.g., that are consistent with the local environment), e.g., to provide a sense of depth ranging from the overlays to the virtual participant projection and to the background showing through the transparent media display.

  • Publication number: 20230065864
    Abstract: Disclosed herein as methods, apparatuses, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems for sensor calibration in at least one enclosure. The calibration may include self-calibration of the sensor, e.g., automatically. The calibration may be performed automatically at or after deployment of the sensor in the enclosure. The calibration may utilize the data of the sensor to be calibrated and/or sensor data of adjacent sensor(s) in the enclosure.
