Augmented reality with eyewear triggered IoT
Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for an immersive augmented reality (AR) experience using an eyewear device. A portable eyewear device includes a processor, a memory, and a display projected onto at least one lens assembly. The memory has programming stored therein that, when executed by the processor, captures information depicting an environment surrounding the device and identifies a match between objects in that information and predetermined objects in previously obtained information for the same environment. When the position of the eyewear device reaches a preselected location with respect to the matched objects, a physical output is provided to produce the immersive experience. The physical output changes as the position of the eyewear device moves to maintain the immersive experience.
METHODS AND APPARATUSES FOR AUTOMATICALLY COMISSIONING LOCATORS
Method, apparatuses, and computer program products for automatically configuring one or more rotation angles for one or more associated locator units. An example method comprising receiving, from the one or more locator units, one or more dimensional values pertaining to the orientation of the one or more locator units; determining, based at least in part on the one or more received dimensional values for each of the one or more locator units and a configuration table pertaining to the locator unit type, one or more rotation angles for each of the one or more locator units; storing the one or more rotation angles for the each of the one or more locator units in an associated memory; and determining a location for one or more objects in an environment based at least upon the one or more rotation angles for each of the one or more locator units.
METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR FLEXIBLE LOCAL TRACKING
There is provided a method and apparatus for tracking a device. The tracked device may be a wearable device worn by a user participating in an athletic activity. An anchor device is positioned with respect to a playing area and receives signals from the tracked device. The anchor device estimates the position of the tracked device by measuring a distance and direction of the signal, and decodes the signal to obtain measurements taken by the tracked device. The position and the measurements are combined to produce tracking data for the device.
Method for sorting and displaying data on a portable electronic device
A method of sorting and displaying data on a portable electronic device includes: determining geographical coordinates of the portable electronic device, providing search criteria to the portable electronic device, performing a search in a database based on the search criteria resulting in a list of database records, determining a search area of the portable electronic device and displaying selected records from the list of database records on a display screen of the portable electronic device. Each of the selected records is located within a search radius, which originates at the geographical coordinates of the portable electronic device, and within the search area, which is determined based on a pointing direction of the portable electronic device.
Computer-based systems employing a network of sensors to support the storage and/or transport of various goods and methods of use thereof to manage losses from quality shortfall
In some embodiments, the present disclosure provides a network of multi-functional sensors; where, based on a quality insurance, each multi-functional sensor is positioned in, on, or in a vicinity of: a transported cargo and/or a cargo container, containing the transported cargo; where each multi-functional sensor is configured to measure particular transport-related condition, particular cargo-related condition, or both, to form cargo transport sensor data and wirelessly transmit it to a server that is configured to dynamically predict, based on the cargo transport sensor data, a predicted quality loss of the transported cargo, determine a current loss value of the transported cargo and cause one or more remedial actions that include instantaneously instructing to pay a payout amount to an owner of the transported cargo to compensate for the current loss value and/or transmitting a remedial instruction with an adjustment to the operation of one or more of a cargo transport, the cargo container, and a cargo storage.
User interfaces and methods for operating a mobile computing device for location-based transactions
A method including monitoring an amount of angular motion of an electronic device for a movement (e.g., casting motion) of the electronic device and determining that the amount of angular motion for the movement exceeds a threshold. A geographic location and a pointing direction of the electronic device may be determined for the movement. A geographic region may be determined based at least in part on the geographic location and the pointing direction of the electronic device. In some implementations, the geographic region may be determined based on the amount of angular motion for the movement. The geographic region may be used as part of a search query. Places of interest corresponding to the geographic region may be determined and provided for display and selection via a user interface of the electronic device. Selectable transactions for the geographic region may also obtained and presented by the electronic device.
METHOD, APPARATUS, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ANONYMIZING TRAJECTORIES
Embodiments described herein relate to anonymizing of trajectories of mobile devices. Methods may include: receiving an input chunk of probe data points, where the input chunk includes probe data points spanning an input duration, where the input chunk represents at least a first input portion of a trajectory; generating, based at least in part on the input chunk, an output chunk of one or more probe data points, where the output chunk includes one or more probe data points spanning an output duration, where the output duration is different from the input duration, where the output chunk represents at least an output portion of the trajectory, where the first input portion of the trajectory and the output portion of the trajectory share at least a common portion of the trajectory; and providing the output chunk of one or more probe data points to a location-based service provider.
Cell ID disambiguation
Systems and methods for cell ID disambiguation are described. In one embodiment, a method may be disclosed for constructing a neighbor table, comprising: receiving, at a mobile base station, a physical cell identifier (PCI) of a detected neighbor base station from a user equipment (UE); receiving a global positioning system (GPS) position of the mobile base station; and associating the GPS position of the mobile base station with the PCI of the detected neighbor base station in a neighbor table.
Electric power motion apparatus and lease management method of electric power motion apparatus
A lease management method of an electric power motion apparatus includes acquiring location information, an advancement direction and a battery state of the electric power motion apparatus; additionally adjusting the advancement direction of the electric power motion apparatus to face towards the lease station such that the electric power motion apparatus faces towards the lease station based on normal adjustment and control if the electric power motion apparatus is located outside a lease range of a lease station; and additionally controlling the electric power motion apparatus to decelerate, and additionally adjusting the advancement direction of the electric power motion apparatus to face towards the lease station such that the electric power motion apparatus advances towards the lease station based on normal adjustment and control if a remaining power amount of the electric power motion apparatus approaches a power amount for returning to the lease station.
Techniques for determining a location of a mobile object
Techniques are disclosed for determining a location of an object based at least in part on a motion of the object. The techniques include generating a motion profile based at least in part on motion data received from a mobile device that is associated with the object. The techniques further include receiving, from a camera at a location, a plurality of images that identifies a candidate motion of a candidate object through at least a portion of the location. The techniques further include generating a candidate motion profile corresponding to the candidate motion of the candidate object based at least in part on the plurality of images. Based at least in part on a score generated by comparing the motion profile with the candidate motion profile, the techniques may determine that the candidate object is the object.
