    摘要: Systems and methods implemented in algorithms, software, firmware, logic, or circuitry may be configured to process data to determine whether an object external to an autonomous vehicle is a person (e.g., such as a pedestrian) or other classification (e.g., such as a vehicle), and may be further configured to determine a position of the person relative to the autonomous vehicle. Logic may be configured to direct acoustic energy (e.g., via vehicular acoustic beam-forming) to an object external to the autonomous vehicle as an audible acoustic alert. The vehicle-related acoustic beam may be directed to a driver in another vehicle. Logic may be configured to track the motion of external objects, such as a pedestrian crossing from one side of the street to the other, and may correspondingly steer the direction of the vehicle-related acoustic beam(s) to track the person's movement.

    摘要: Disclosed is an emergency detection and response system using LED-lighting modules. The emergency detection and response system using LED-lighting modules, according to the present invention, comprises: a plurality of LED-lighting modules having an emergency sensor for sensing an emergency and a communication sensor; a communication network for, if an emergency is detected by the emergency sensor, receiving emergency detection signals transmitted via the communication sensor and providing the emergency detection signals to an operation unit; a control unit for controlling the LED-lighting modules according to control signals received from the operation unit or a specific emergency detection signal among the emergency detection signals; and a cloud platform for building, as a database, the emergency detection signals received from the communication network or the control signals corresponding to the emergency detection signals and transmitting an early warning signal on the basis of the received signals.

    摘要: There is provided a method of operating a device to generate a target sound that is audible to a user of the device, the method comprising measuring the background noise in the environment in which the device is located; using a perceptual loudness model to predict the audibility of the target sound to a user of the device based on the measured background noise; using the output of the perceptual loudness model to determine a gain value that is to be applied to a source signal used to generate the target sound in order to provide at least a desired level of audibility of the target sound to the user; applying the determined gain value to the source signal to produce a modified source signal; and generating the target sound using the modified source signal.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method, system and apparatus for a hearing device and system which provides information to the user of the device or system. The information is delivered to the user at a time that is determined to reduce or minimise the interruption to the user caused by the delivery of the information to the user. The delivery time is determined by an analysis of the environment about the user, such as surrounding audio signals. An information scheduler controls the delivery of the information to the user according to the analysis of the environment.
