摘要:
A system and method responsive to input stimuli is provided by incorporating a computer software program, hardware processing engine, or a specialized ASIC chip processor apparatus to capture concurrent inputs that are responsive to training stimulation, store a model representing a synthesis of the captured inputs, and use the stored model to generate outputs in response to real-world stimulation. Human user forced-choice approval/disapproval generated descriptions and decisions may be dynamically mapped with conventionally presented information and sensor and control data. The model mapping is stored into and out of a conventional mass storage device, such as is used in a relational database for use in generating a response to the stimuli. By accessing commonly stored mappings, the system can be incorporated into a mixture of multiple domains and disciplines of users and can create a common understanding of knowledge and design concept contained within it through mutual interaction, and subsequent automatic modifications to a common relational database. The system and method is applicable to conventional storage and presentation devices, making it easily incorporated into a variety of commercial products, utilizing current commercial human-machine interfaces (e.g. Human-Machine Interface graphical user interface, or Graphical User Interface) and current mass storage devices. The system uses N-dimensional descriptions of observations and concepts in an infinitely expandable space, embracing elements of human thought. This allows the user to tailor this system to control operation of automated devices and appliances to reflect the individual's wishes and desires as a dynamic representation and mapping of user descriptions and decisions with information, sensor data, and device controls.

An example system includes one or more sleeves, each configured for attachment to a leg and comprising a pressure sensor, an accelerometer and a magnetometer. A processor processes sensor signals from the pressure sensor, the accelerometer and the magnetometer to estimate action (A) and work (W) using event detections of peak stance and valley swing events associated with leg movement, for optimizing energy efficiency for maintaining a balance of the body leaning forward in a gravity pull-down force, with the periodic upward force of the sequential foot-thrusts with the toes.

摘要:
One embodiment of the present invention includes interrogating a location along a face of a person with multiple wavelengths of electromagnetic radiation. Signals are established corresponding to detection of the wavelengths reflected from the location. A determination is made as to whether a disguising material covers at least a part of the face based on a difference in range to the location indicated by these signals. Alternatively, the signals may correspond to reflections by different portions of an eye of the person and a determination is made regarding the location of one or more eyes of the person based on the signals. In one particular nonlimiting form, a multispectral, three-dimensional signature of facial features is registered to eye location that may include the iris, nose, chin, mouth, check or the like for facial recognition/identification.
摘要:
A method and a preferred apparatus for the searching, acquisition and locking into boresight alignment of two remote optical beam transceivers suitable for use in satellite communications. A first transceiver operates in a search mode while acquiring a communications link with a second transceiver operating in a stare mode. Each transceiver has an optical axis and a retro-reflector that reflects incident beams that are not substantially aligned with the local optical axis while not reflecting all incident beams substantially aligned with the local optical axis. Each transceiver includes an axis-aligned beam transmitting source, a axis-aligned optical detector for incoming beams, a pointing system for aiming the local optical axis in any direction over a hemispherical range, and a beam tracker for maintaining boresight alignment following acquisition. The decision processor includes means for distinguishing between optical beams reflected from the second transceiver and optical beams transmitted by the second transceiver. In operation, the reflected beam increases in intensity as the two transceivers approach alignment but drops to zero as the transceivers attain boreslight alignment. The preferred apparatus includes a matched pair of reflecting telescopes rigidly mounted on a gimballed platform with the transmitting and receiving telescope axes precisely aligned and parallel. Each telescope includes a primary reflector, a secondary reflector with a Cassegrainian focus behind the primary reflector and a tertiary retro-reflector behind an aperture at the vertex of the primary reflector.
