  • Patent number: 11368668
    Abstract: A system includes a head mounted display (HMD), a processor, and a memory. The HMD is configured to generate sensor data indicative of a gaze vector of a user and a position of the user. The processor is configured to communicate with the HMD. The memory is coupled to the processor and stores instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to obtain data indicating the gaze vector of the user and the position of the user. The instructions also cause the processor to determine a component vector for a virtual component of a virtual reality simulator based on the position of the user and a position of the virtual component. The instructions further cause the processor to calculate an alignment value based on the gaze vector and the component vector, and adjust a simulation setting of the virtual component based on the alignment value.

  • Publication number: 20110051560
    Abstract: The time and/or date display of a clock radio is settable remotely and automatically by a radio frequency information signal. The time and/or date display is initially set in manufacturing of the clock radio simultaneously to a plurality of clock radio units, and the display may also be adjusted with an adjusting radio frequency signal broadcast to a plurality of clock radio units simultaneously.

  • Publication number: 20100177902
    Abstract: An audio transmission system of an FM carrier frequency signal conveys an analog audio signal with minimum distortion, high signal to noise ratio, and minimum phase distortion. The system employs digital data processing blocks to generate a VHF FM carrier signal which is subsequently converted to an UHF FM carrier frequency signal for transmission wirelessly to a receiver for reproducing the audio signal.
