  • Patent number: 12196710
    Abstract: Provided are an alternating current field based defect identification method and an array detection probe. The evaluation method includes the following steps: obtaining a magnetic field Bx signal in direction X and a magnetic field Bz signal in direction Z; removing a background magnetic field of each of the magnetic field Bx signal in the direction X and the magnetic field Bz signal in the direction Z, and obtaining a magnetic field Bx1 signal in the direction X and a magnetic field Bz1 signal in the direction Z without background magnetic fields; drawing an array image of the Bx1 signal and an array image of the Bz1 signal; and locating a distortion zone corresponding to disturbance at the same time and position in the array image of the Bx1 signal and the array image of the Bz1 signal.

  • Patent number: 11461905
    Abstract: Implementations generally relate to determining a kinematic sequence. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining a video of a person performing an action. The method further includes determining from the video a plurality of points associated with the person, where the determining of the plurality of points is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes converting two-dimensional (2D) coordinates of the plurality of points to three-dimensional (3D) coordinates, where the converting is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes determining a movement of the plurality of points based at least in part on the 3D coordinates.

  • Patent number: 11222428
    Abstract: Implementations generally relate to determining golf swing characteristics. In some implementations, a method includes obtaining a video of a person performing an action. The method further includes determining from the video a plurality of points associated with the person, where the determining of the plurality of points is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes determining a plurality of three-dimensional (3D) coordinates for each point of the plurality of points, where the determining of the 3D coordinates is performed for each frame of the video. The method further includes determining a movement of the plurality of points based at least in part on the 3D coordinates. The method further includes determining one or more movement errors based at least in part on the movement of the plurality of points.
