    摘要: A method performed by an electronic hearing device with an earpiece configured to be worn in an ear, includes: engaging a hearing mode wherein a compensated output signal is based on current hearing compensation data. Performing a first fitting procedure including: obtaining first hearing compensation data via audiometric measurements; emitting an otoacoustic stimulation signal and capturing an acoustic signal including otoacoustic emissions. In response to receiving a first input signal, performing a first monitoring procedure including: emitting an otoacoustic stimulation signal and capturing an acoustic signal including otoacoustic emissions, if any. Determining a deviation value based on the second acoustic signal and the third acoustic signal; and determining whether the deviation value satisfies a first criterion. In accordance with a determination that the deviation value satisfies the first criterion, communicating a first notification signal indicative of the deviation from the hearing device.

    摘要: Systems and methods are described in which a light beam generated by a handheld device is used to point toward a selected object or location within a printed page containing visual content. The object(s) and/or location being pointed at may be determined using a device camera pointed in the same direction as the beam coupled with computer vision methods to determine locations of camera-acquired images within a database of page-content templates. The database may include interactive sequences and/or scenarios associated with page objects and locations, which may augment the visual content of a printed book to include audible elements, additional visual components, and/or haptic stimulation enacted by the handheld device. The device may also generate a beam image reflection on a viewable surface that is in focus at a predetermined distance to encourage a user to position the handheld device at the predetermined distance from the viewable surface.

    摘要: An improved method, system, and apparatus is provided to implement a general architecture for robot systems. A mode execution module is provided to universally execute execution modes on different robotic system. A system includes an execution module that receives software instructions in a normalized programming language. The system also includes an interface having a translation layer that converts the software instructions from the normalized language into robot-specific instructions that operate in a particular robotic system. The system further includes a controller that is communicatively coupled to the interface, wherein the controller receives the robot-specific instructions. Moreover, the system includes a robotic device that is operatively controlled by the controller by execution of the robot-specific instructions.

    摘要: Systems and methods of generating a three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction of a scene or environment surrounding a user of a spatial computing system, such as a virtual reality, augmented reality or mixed reality system, using only multiview images comprising, and without the need for depth sensors or depth data from sensors. Features are extracted from a sequence of frames of RGB images and back-projected using known camera intrinsics and extrinsics into a 3D voxel volume wherein each pixel of the voxel volume is mapped to a ray in the voxel volume. The back-projected features are fused into the 3D voxel volume. The 3D voxel volume is passed through a 3D convolutional neural network to refine the and regress truncated signed distance function values at each voxel of the 3D voxel volume.
