SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR GAZE AND POSE DETECTION TO ANTICIPATE OPERATOR INTENT
20230039764 · 2023-02-09 ·

A system and method for inferring operator intent by detecting operator focus incorporates cameras positioned within a cockpit or control space of a vehicle and oriented at an operator of the vehicle. The cameras capture images of the operator in a control seat; the images are analyzed (either individually or sequentially) to determine a gaze and/or body pose of the operator (including, e.g., a position and orientation of the torso and limbs). By comparing the determined gaze and/or body pose to the positions and orientations of potential focus targets within the control space (e.g., windows, display units, and/or control panels that the operator may engage with visually and/or physically), the system predicts the most likely future focus target or targets: what the operator is most likely to visually and/or physically engage with next. Operator intent may be further analyzed to identify potentially abnormal or anomalous behavior.

Electronic device and control method thereof

An electronic device and method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a foldable display that is at least partially foldable, at least one processor, and at least one memory. The processor implements the method, including detecting, by at least one processor, that a foldable display of the electronic device changes from an unfolded state to a partially folded state, configuring a first region of the foldable display to accept touch inputs in the partially folded state, and configuring a second region of the foldable display to accept non-touch inputs in the partially folded state.

Pilot and passenger seat

The present invention achieves technical advantages as a pilot and passenger seating. An aircraft employs a pilot seat, comprising a contoured structure having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, with left and right arm supports that include an articulated control knob, movable in three rectangular axes and rotatable about a vertical axis to provide one or more aircraft steering functions for an aircraft, and a touch-sensitive control surface for controlling one or more power system components. A passenger seat, having a contoured structure, having ergonomically formed and padded surfaces, a headrest, a seat, a left support member, and a right support member are adapted to cradle a portion of a passenger's body to support the passenger during travel.

Methods for manipulating objects in an environment

In some embodiments, an electronic device automatically updates the orientation of a virtual object in a three-dimensional environment based on a viewpoint of a user in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, an electronic device automatically updates the orientation of a virtual object in a three-dimensional environment based on viewpoints of a plurality of users in the three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, the electronic device modifies an appearance of a real object that is between a virtual object and the viewpoint of a user in a three-dimensional environment. In some embodiments, the electronic device automatically selects a location for a user in a three-dimensional environment that includes one or more virtual objects and/or other users.

Content size adjustment

One embodiment provides a method, including: receiving, at an information handling device, an indication to display content at a first size on a display screen, wherein only a portion of the content is viewable at the first size on the display screen; detecting, at the information handling device, a resize gesture; and adjusting, responsive to the resize gesture, a size of the content from the first size to a second size, wherein more than the portion of the content is viewable at the second size on the display screen. Other aspects are described and claimed.

Prestaging, gesture-based, access control system

A prestaging, gesture-based, access control system includes a local access assembly, a mobile device, a storage medium, and a processor. The assembly includes a controller to effect actuation between access and no-access states. The mobile device is carried by a user, and includes a detection system configured to detect a prestaging event inherently performed by the user toward an intent to gain access and followed by the detection of a primary intentional gesture specifically performed by the user toward the intent to gain access. The storage medium and the processor are configured to receive prestaging event information and primary intentional gesture information from the detection system, and execute an application to determine the performance of the prestaging event from the prestaging event information, then determine the performance of the primary intentional gesture from the primary intentional gesture information if the prestaging event is determined to have occurred.

Mobile terminal and control method therefor

The present invention relates to a device and a control method therefor and, more specifically, the device comprises: a memory for storing at least one command; a depth camera for capturing at least one hand of a user; a display module; and a controller for controlling the memory, the depth camera, and the display module. The controller controls the depth camera so as to capture the at least one hand of a user and controls the display module so as to output a visual feedback that changes on the basis of the captured hand of a user.

ONE-HAND OPERATION METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE

A one-hand operation method and an electronic device are provided. The method includes: displaying a first interface, where the interface is a user interface displayed on a screen; detecting a first trigger operation of a user; and displaying a floating interface based on the first trigger operation. After the user enables a “floating screen” function, the electronic device determines, based on an obtained length of a thumb of the user and an obtained position at which the user holds the electronic device, a region that can be operated by the user with one hand, and then presents the floating interface in that region.

CONNECTED ECOSYSTEM FOR LABORATORY ENVIRONMENT

A connected ecosystem for a laboratory environment comprises an electronic lab notebook, and instrumented biosafety cabinet, and one or more sensing vessels containing cell cultures. The electronic lab notebook interfaces with the instrumented biosafety cabinet to provide instructions, guidance, and monitoring of a user during the set up of the experimental protocol and to receive commands from the user via one of several input modalities. After the experimental protocol has been set up in the instrumented biosafety cabinet, cell cultures may be moved to an incubator where the connected ecosystem may provide automatic monitoring of the cultures. The automatic monitoring is provided by sensors integrated into cell culture vessels and supplemented by images of the cell cultures captured by a camera. The user may be informed of deviations from expected results detected based on the automatic monitoring.

There is a demand for an information processing device capable of determining a position where a user attempts to perform operation on a screen of the information processing device, without impairing usability. Therefore, the present disclosure proposes an information processing device including: an acceleration sensor unit that detects a tilt of the information processing device; a display unit; a gyroscope sensor unit that measures angular velocity of the information processing device; and a determination unit that, in response to detection of a first tilt of the information processing device, determines a position where a user attempts to perform operation on the display unit on the basis of a first gyro waveform obtained from the angular velocity and a second gyro waveform at each operation position of the information processing device measured in advance or a learning model generated by using the second gyro waveform as training data. The display unit further displays a screen displayed on the display unit while reducing the screen by a predetermined amount or moving the screen by a predetermined amount in a predetermined direction in accordance with the determined position.
