Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20090234844Systems and Methods for Extracting Application Relevant Data from Messages - Systems and methods are provided for extracting application relevant data from messages. In one embodiment, a system can comprise a message parser that parses messages and builds a message tree having one or more objects, one or more data type templates that define a given data type based on one or more data elements and a comparison engine that matches data elements in the one or more objects with data elements in the one or more data type templates. The comparison engine groups data elements in the one or more objects that matches data elements in the one or more data templates as a specific data type corresponding to the associated data type template that is matched.09-17-2009
20100208234SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR DETECTING AND ANALYZING OBJECTS - Systems and methods are provided that employ one or more mirrors to harvest laser beams emitted by a physical rangefinder within a region of interest that would otherwise not intersect an object within the region of interest. The mirrors redirect the harvested beams back within the region of interest, creating one or more virtual rangefinders that supplement the physical rangefinder. The location of the virtual rangefinders is symmetric to the position of the physical rangefinder about the plane of the mirror and along the line normal to the mirror passing through the physical rangefinder. The virtual rangefinders, which operate synchronously with the physical rangefinder, thus provide a view of the object(s) from an angle different from that of the physical rangefinder.08-19-2010
20100208235LIGHT DETECTION AND RANGING APPARATUS - A light detection and ranging (LIDAR) apparatus is provided that employs one or more additional reflectors to reflect and redirect the light beam transmission pulses from a scanning fan assembly to a given area of interest. The one or more additional reflectors provide additional resolution for detecting a detectable object. The one or more additional reflectors can be external or internal to the scanning fan assembly.08-19-2010

20100050133Compound Gesture Recognition - One embodiment of the invention includes a method for executing and interpreting gesture inputs in a gesture recognition interface system. The method includes detecting and translating a first sub-gesture into a first device input that defines a given reference associated with a portion of displayed visual content. The method also includes detecting and translating a second sub-gesture into a second device input that defines an execution command for the portion of the displayed visual content to which the given reference refers.02-25-2010
20100052851Security System Utilizing Gesture Recognition - Systems and methods are provided for restricting access to an item of interest. A normalization component resamples an input trajectory to produce a resampled trajectory having a standard size. A reference point generator reduces the resampled trajectory to respective values for a set of reference points, each having at least two associated coordinates. The system further includes at least one authentication region. Each of the at least one authentication region represents at least one of the set of reference points. A verification component is configured to determine if the values for the set of reference points from a given input falls within the at least one authentication region. An access restriction mechanism restricts access to the item of interest unless a threshold number of values for the set of reference points from the input falls within their associated authentication regions.03-04-2010
20100054602System and Method for Single Stroke Character Recognition - Systems and methods are provided for recognizing a single stroke gesture. An input trajectory representing the single stroke gesture is received. The input trajectory is normalized to produce a normalized trajectory having a standard set of dimensions. The normalized trajectory is reduced to a standard number of substantially evenly spaced points. Respective covariance adjusted distances are determined for each class as the covariance adjusted position between a set of points representing each single stroke character classes and the substantially evenly spaced points representing the normalized trajectory.03-04-2010

20100026723Image magnification system for computer interface - One embodiment of the invention includes a computer interface system. The system comprises a user interface screen configured to display visual content and an input system configured to detect a presence of an input object within a threshold distance along a normal axis of the user interface screen. The system further comprises a graphical controller configured to magnify a portion of the visual content that is located at an approximate location of a base of the normal axis on the user interface screen.02-04-2010

20090103780Hand-Gesture Recognition Method - One embodiment of the invention includes a method of providing device inputs. The method includes illuminating hand gestures performed via a bare hand of a user in a foreground of a background surface with at least one infrared (IR) light source. The method also includes generating a first plurality of silhouette images associated with the bare hand based on an IR light contrast between the bare hand and the background surface and generating a second plurality of silhouette images associated with the bare hand based on an IR light contrast between the bare hand and the background surface. The method also includes determining a plurality of three-dimensional features of the bare hand relative to the background surface based on a parallax separation of the bare hand in the first plurality of silhouette images relative to the second plurality of silhouette images. The method also includes determining a provided input gesture based on the plurality of three-dimensional features of the bare hand and comparing the provided input gesture with a plurality of predefined gesture inputs in a gesture library. The method further includes providing at least one device input corresponding to interaction with displayed visual content based on the provided input gesture corresponding to one of the plurality of predefined gesture inputs.04-23-2009
