Virtual Reality System with Modeling Poses of Tracked Objects by Predicting Sensor Data
A platform system receives sensor data describing the state and orientation of a tracked object and models the pose of the tracked object to determine user interactions with the platform system. To ensure that incorrect sensor data due to a saturation event or connection loss does not impact user experience, the platform system identifies regions for correction in sensor data streams based on the sensor data being at or above a saturation limit or not being received. The platform system predicts sensor data for an identified region of correction by applying a fit corresponding to points adjacent to the region for correction and determining predicted sensor data using the applied fit. The predicted sensor data is used to correct the modeled pose for the tracked object.

Smart height safety system
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a smart hook, a safety harness module, and associated electronic components that detect a safety state of a user by monitoring various parameters at the smart hook and safety harness module and determining whether the user is using proper safety protocol at extreme heights and/or whether the user has experienced a height-related accident. In an illustrative example, the user may don a safety harness that may include a module that contains sensors that monitor an acceleration/velocity/position of the user and/or ambient air pressure around the user. The module may receive wireless signals from at least one rebar hook having sensors that monitor the acceleration/velocity/position and gate position of the rebar hooks. A controller included with the safety harness module may use these sensors to advantageously determine the safety state of the user and generate alert/warning signals.
