Patent number: 10412551Abstract: Based on an idea that there is a correlation between the number of mobile terminals 300 detected inside a facility (that is, a detected terminal count) and visitors of the facility, the number of users using the facility (that is, a crowd condition of the facility) is estimated using a WiFi function provided in the mobile terminals 300. Consequently, the crowd condition of the facility can simply be estimated while costs are suppressed to be low, compared to conventional methods in which, e.g., infrared modules or Web cameras are provided at entrances/exits of a facility to estimate a crowd condition.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2016Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: Recruit Co., Ltd.Inventors: Ryuichiro Maezawa, Kazunori Okubo

Patent number: 10409481Abstract: A presentation system capable of detecting one or more gestures and contacts on a touch sensitive display. The presentation system can displaying indicia of such contacts, such as when a user writes with a fingertip, and can remove or alter such indicia responsive to other gestures and contacts. The system can accurately distinguish between types of gestures detected, such as between a writing gesture and an erasing gesture, on both large and small touch sensitive displays, thereby obviating the need for a user to make additional selective inputs to transition from one type of gesture to another. The presentation system can distinguish between gestures appropriate for one type of writing and another. For example the system can determine that gestures correspond to writing in Chinese versus English, and display the writing in a style that is appropriate for that language.Type: GrantFiled: June 6, 2017Date of Patent: September 10, 2019Assignee: Polycom, Inc.Inventors: Shu Gao, Alain Nimri

Patent number: 10394946Abstract: The technology disclosed relates to formulating and refining field extraction rules that are used at query time on raw data with a late-binding schema. The field extraction rules identify portions of the raw data, as well as their data types and hierarchical relationships. These extraction rules are executed against very large data sets not organized into relational structures that have not been processed by standard extraction or transformation methods. By using sample events, a focus on primary and secondary example events help formulate either a single extraction rule spanning multiple data formats, or multiple rules directed to distinct formats. Selection tools mark up the example events to indicate positive examples for the extraction rules, and to identify negative examples to avoid mistaken value selection. The extraction rules can be saved for query-time use, and can be incorporated into a data model for sets and subsets of event data.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2017Date of Patent: August 27, 2019Assignee: SPLUNK INC.Inventors: Jesse Miller, Micah James Delfino, Marc Robichaud, Catherine Anne Hanson, David Carasso

Patent number: 10387518Abstract: A system and method are disclosed for controlling metadata associated with content on an electronic device that includes displaying interface screens for user entry of metadata control instructions, accepting user instructions, modifying metadata of applicable content, and associating the modified metadata with the applicable content. The system can export and/or store the applicable content along with modified metadata. The system can automatically modify metadata according to one or more profiles. Relevant profiles can be determined based on the export mechanism, destination or type of content. The system can add watermarks to indicate metadata modification. The system can display metadata for user modification. The content can include photos, videos or other content. The system can display metadata and geolocation indicators for each content item that indicate whether that item has associated metadata and geolocation information. The user can selectively modify metadata of selected content.Type: GrantFiled: July 3, 2017Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Inventor: Deacon Johnson

Patent number: 10387113Abstract: Approaches provide for controlling, managing, and/or otherwise interacting with mixed (e.g., virtual and/or augmented) reality content in response to input from a user, including voice input, device input, among other such inputs, in a mixed reality environment. For example, a mixed reality device, such as a headset or other such device can perform various operations in response to a voice command or other such input. In one such example, the device can receive a voice command and an application executing on the device or otherwise in communication with the device can analyze audio input data of the voice command to control the view of content in the environment, as may include controlling a user's “position” in the environment. The position can include, for example, a specific location in time, space, etc., as well as directionality and field of view of the user in the environment.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2018Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: METRIK LLCInventors: Keara Elizabeth Fallon, Vincent George Lubsey

Patent number: 10388120Abstract: A localized sound projection system can coordinate the sounds of speakers to simulate the placement of an auditory cue in a 3D space. The system can include a plurality of speakers configured to output auditory signals and a sound localization controller configured to control the plurality of speakers to coordinate the auditory signals to simulate an origination location of a patient alarm. The sound localization controller can determine adjusted auditory signals and control a plurality of speakers to output the plurality of adjusted auditory signals. A method for dynamically controlling speaker settings in a medical environment can include determining volume settings corresponding to a speaker, monitoring a level of ambient noise corresponding to a room of a patient, controlling the volume settings of the speaker to reduce or increase a sound level output of a speaker. A patient monitoring system can be configured to physically manipulate medical devices in response to audible commands.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2018Date of Patent: August 20, 2019Assignee: Masimo CorporationInventors: Bilal Muhsin, Ammar Al-Ali
