  • Publication number: 20240081705
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a non-contact fatigue detection system and method based on rPPG. The system and method adopt multi-thread synchronous communication for real-time acquisition and processing of rPPG signal, enabling fatigue status detection. In this setup, the first thread handles real-time rPPG data capture, storage and concatenation, while the second thread conducts real-time analysis and fatigue detection of rPPG data. Through a combination of skin detection and LUV color space conversion, rPPG raw signal extraction is achieved, effectively eliminating interference from internal and external environmental facial noise; Subsequently, an adaptive multi-stage filtering process enhances the signal-to-noise ratio, and a multi-dimensional fusion CNN model ensures accurate detection of respiration and heart rate.

  • Patent number: 11922110
    Abstract: Systems and techniques for generating responsive documents are described. Digital content is organized into a structure that defines how content is presented when a document is displayed by a computing device. To generate the responsive document, relationships are defined among different digital content objects, such as groups of content objects to be presented together and content objects that are to be presented as alternatives of one another. Responsive patterns are assigned to grouped content objects, where each responsive pattern defines different layout configurations for displaying grouped content objects based on computing device display characteristics. In some implementations, multiple responsive patterns are assigned to a single content group and individual responsive patterns are associated with activation ranges for display characteristics that activate the responsive pattern.
