  • Patent number: 11080520
    Abstract: Computer-implemented techniques are provided for machine recognition of gestures and transformation of recognized gestures to text or speech, for gestures communicate in a sign language such as American Sign Language (ASL). In an embodiment, a computer-implemented method comprises: storing a training dataset comprising a plurality of digital images of sign language gestures and an alphabetical letter assigned to each digital image of the plurality of digital images, training a neural network using the plurality of digital images of sign language gestures as input and the alphabetical letter assigned to each digital image as output, receiving a particular digital image comprising a particular sign language gesture, and using the trained neural network to classify the particular digital image as a particular alphabetical letter.

  • Patent number: 9769096
    Abstract: There are provided a method, apparatus, system and computer readable storage medium of adding an instant message contact. The method includes: receiving a joining-in request for a group from a client where a user locates, the joining-in request comprising a group identifier; acquiring audio and/or video information of other user in the group, based on the group identifier; and transmitting the audio and/or video information of the other user to the client where the user locates, for adding by the client where the user locates the instant message contact based on the audio and/or video information of the other user. Thereby, the mutual trust between unknown users is improved, and the success ratio of adding an unknown user as a contact and the ratio of turning into a contact from an unknown user are increased.

  • Patent number: 8930134
    Abstract: A positioning system for determining the location of a portable device includes a radio network. The radio network includes radio network nodes for communicating with the portable device and measuring signal strength from the portable device. The radio network also includes a Near Field Communication node for communicating with the portable device and at least initially providing the portable device with configuration information to enable the portable device to pair with the radio network nodes. The system also includes a positioning server for receiving signal strength information from the radio network, determining a location of the portable device, providing the portable device with a graphical representation of its location within a floorplan, receiving an indication of a desired product from the portable device, determining a location of the product, calculating and providing the portable device with a route from the location of the portable device to the product.

  • Publication number: 20050105471
    Abstract: An adaptive control method in real-time communication for taking measures against the conditions of the loss of a receiver report packet which is sent out from an apparatus at the side of receiving distributed data toward a distribution server, thereby achieving an appropriate data distribution adaptive to transmission path conditions and/or communication conditions: According to the method, a dynamic arrangement for the transmission interval of a receiver report packet is made between data distribution server (301) and data reception apparatus (101) Then, after starting the transmission/reception of real-time data, data distribution server (301) monitors the reception conditions of the receiver report packet in a unit of the arranged transmission interval, and then adaptively controls a data transmission rate, etc., based on a monitoring result.

  • Publication number: 20040165527
    Abstract: The present invention is related to method for the compression of a control traffic in media data transmission, which uses Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) and Real-time Control Protocol (RTCP), employed particularly in real-time or near-real-time multimedia data delivery in an Internet protocol (IP) network, within the allocated fractions of the available session bandwidth. To optimise the bandwidth efficiency for RTCP traffic and the to reduce the RTCP report/feedback interval the present invention provides a method comprising the steps of initialising the context of control traffic flow by initially transmitting context parameters and updating said context during the session if necessary using compressed control packets.
