  • Publication number: 20200396031
    Abstract: The techniques described herein relate to methods, apparatus, and computer readable media configured to schedule individual orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) resources on an upstream channel to serve a data transmission request from a downstream device. A schedule for a set of available resources on the upstream channel to serve the data transmission request is generated, based on a dynamic bit loading profile, including generating data indicative of a first bit loading profile for a first set of resources from the set of available resources for a first burst, and data indicative of a second bit loading profile for a second set of resources from the set of available resources for a second burst. The schedule is transmitted to a downstream device, such that the downstream device is configured to encode the first burst using the first bit loading profile and the second burst using the second bit loading profile.

  • Publication number: 20200372782
    Abstract: An in-vehicle life detection system and detection method thereof are provided. The system includes a control unit, an electromagnetic wave detection module, and a warning module. The method includes following steps: vehicle condition identifying step, life form detecting step, and warning step. Upon receiving an engine off signal and a driver absence signal, the control unit emits a detection activation signal, activating the electromagnetic wave detection module to emit an electromagnetic wave for detecting a life form. When the life form is detected, the warning module sends a warning signal, indicating that the life form is left in the vehicle when the vehicle is in the engine off status with the doors closed. Thus, the tragedy of a life form remaining inside the vehicle incapable of calling for help is avoided.

  • Patent number: 10841491
    Abstract: Aspects of the embodiments are directed to passive depth determination. Initially, a high power depth map of a scene can be created. An object in the scene can be identified, such as a rigid body or other object or portion of an object. A series of lower power or RGB images can be captured. The object can be located in one or more of the lower power or RGB images. A change in the position of an object, represented by a set of pixels, can be determined. From the change in position of the object, a new depth of the object can be extrapolated. The extrapolated depth of the object can be used to update the high power depth map.
