VEHICLE, DETERMINATION METHOD, AND NON-TRANSITORY COMPUTER-READABLE MEDIUM
A vehicle includes an information acquisition unit configured to acquire a movement of a body of a driver; and a controller configured to determine whether the movement of the body of the driver acquired by the information acquisition unit is a normal pattern of the driver.
Imaging using gated elements
Exemplary methods and systems may image an object of interest using one or more waveguide assemblies including gated elements. The gated elements may be configurable in a transmission state, a reception state, or a passive state. The exemplary methods and systems may deliver electromagnetic energy (e.g., microwave energy) to an object of interest using a gated element of a waveguide assembly configured in a transmission state and sample scattered field using a gated element of another waveguide assembly configured in the reception state while the remainder of gated elements are configured in the passive state.
METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR MONITORING AND INFLUENCING GESTURE-BASED BEHAVIORS
Methods and systems are provided herein for analyzing, monitoring, and/or influencing a user's behavioral gesture in real-time. A gesture recognition method may be provided. The method may comprise: obtaining sensor data collected using at least one sensor located on a wearable device, wherein said wearable device is configured to be worn by a user; and analyzing the sensor data to determine a probability of the user performing a predefined gesture, wherein the probability is determined based in part on a magnitude of a motion vector in the sensor data, and without comparing the motion vector to one or more physical motion profiles.
APPARATUS FOR IN VIVO DIELECTRIC SPECTROSCOPY
The apparatus includes a sensor having a multi-portion dielectric composite. A microstrip transmission line is formed on the dielectric composite and includes an input section, radiator portion, and an output section. The dielectric material adjacent the radiator portion is selected to substantially match that of the certain portions of a live organism being sensed, allowing other constituents of the organism to be sensed. This allow the radiator portion to effectively respond as if it were embedded inside the organism, removing substantial uncertainly from the measurement process. By then applying a plurality of signals to the sensor, the reflected and transmitted components of the signal can be measured and used to determine the amount of certain constituents are present in the organism.
ESTIMATION METHOD AND ESTIMATION DEVICE
An estimation method includes: transmitting transmission signals using M transmission antenna elements; receiving reception signals by N reception antenna elements; calculating, from the reception signals, a first matrix whose components are complex transfer functions indicating propagation characteristics between the transmission antenna elements and the reception antenna elements; estimating, using the first matrix, a position and an orientation of a living body relative to an estimation device; when the estimated position is in a first identification region and the estimated orientation is in a predetermined range from a first direction, identifying the living body based on time waveforms of the reception signals and a first training signal which is obtained in advance in the first identification region and corresponds to the living body; and adding, as an identification region for identifying the first living body identified, a new identification region based on an estimated position of the first living body identified.
