Detecting An Eye Of A User And Determining Location And Blinking State Of The User

US Patent:
2006014, Jul 6, 2006
Filed:
Jan 4, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/028151
Inventors:
Mark Unkrich - Redwood City CA, US
Julie Fouquet - Portola Valley CA, US
Richard Haven - Sunnyvale CA, US
Daniel Usikov - Newark CA, US
John Wenstrand - Menlo Park CA, US
Todd Sachs - Palo Alto CA, US
James Horner - Santa Clara CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 17/00
US Classification:
701001000, 701051000, 701045000
Abstract:
A method and apparatus for detecting a location of an eye of a user using an automated detection process, and automatically determining a position of a head of the user with respect to an object based on the detected location of the eye. A location of an eye of a user inside a vehicle is detected using the automated detection process, at least one of height and orientation information of the user is automatically determined based on the detected location of the eye, and a mechanical device inside the vehicle is controlled in accordance with the determined information. Moreover, an eye blinking pattern of a user is detected using an infrared reflectivity of an eye of the user, and messages are transmitted from the user in accordance with the detected eye blinking pattern of the user.

US Patent:
4016552, Apr 5, 1977
Filed:
Sep 12, 1975
Appl. No.:
5/613008
Inventors:
James F. Horner - Santa Clara CA
William D. Jackson - San Jose CA
Assignee:
Hewlett-Packard Company - Palo Alto CA
International Classification:
G08B 2100
US Classification:
340253C
Abstract:
A circuit having a variable voltage source and a comparator with feedback capability detects high-speed input pulses of positive and negative polarities relative to selected voltage thresholds. The circuit also stretches and displays the detected pulses utilizing pulse stretching and LED circuitry.
