Tracking System Using Proximity And/Or Presence
US Patent:
2011020, Aug 25, 2011
Filed:
Oct 15, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/906029
Inventors:
Richard H. Cavallaro - Mountain View CA, US
James Orville McGuffin - Saratoga CA, US
John Roy Borton - Los Gatos CA, US
James Orville McGuffin - Saratoga CA, US
John Roy Borton - Los Gatos CA, US
International Classification:
G08B 21/00
US Classification:
3406866
Abstract:
A system simultaneously tracks multiple objects. All or a subset of the objects includes a wireless receiver and a transmitter for providing an output. The system includes one or more wireless transmitters that send commands to the wireless receivers of the multiple objects instructing different subsets of the multiple objects to output (via their respective transmitter) at different times. The system also includes object sensors that receive output from the transmitters of the multiple objects and a computer system in communication with the object sensors. The computer system calculates locations of the multiple objects based on the sensed output from the multiple objects. In some embodiments, the system can also track an item based on proximity of that item to one or more of the objects. In such embodiments, the multiple objects each includes one or more local sensors. The local sensors detect presence of the item and the items' transmitters communicate presence of the item based on respective one or more local sensors. The computer system identifies a location of the item based on communications from one or more of the objects indicating presence of the item and the calculated locations of the multiple objects detecting the item.

International Classification:
H04N 7/18
US Classification:
348144, 348E07085
Abstract:
A system for enhancing video can insert graphics, in perspective, into the video where the positions of the graphics are dependent on sensor measurements of the locations and/or attitudes of objects and the movable camera capturing the video.

Simulation System
US Patent:
2012023, Sep 13, 2012
Filed:

Appl. No.:
13/351554
Inventors:
Richard H. Cavallaro - Mountain View CA, US
John Roy Borton - Los Gatos CA, US
John Roy Borton - Los Gatos CA, US
International Classification:
G06N 5/02, G06G 7/48
US Classification:
706 46, 703 3
Abstract:
A simulation system is proposed that makes use of historical and live data sensed for one or more objects (e.g., people, cars, balls, rackets, etc.). An event will include one or more decision points. A choice of an action to take at a decision point is made. That chosen action will be simulated based on the historical and live data. The simulation can be compared to the actual action taken in the event as a way to judge the choice. Although the choice of action to take at the decision point is simulated, the real event is not altered by the choice.
