    摘要: A system and process for selecting objects in an ubiquitous computing environment where various electronic devices are controlled by a computer via a network connection and the objects are selected by a user pointing to them with a wireless RF pointer. By a combination of electronic sensors onboard the pointer and external calibrated cameras, a host computer equipped with an RF transceiver decodes the orientation sensor values transmitted to it by the pointer and computes the orientation and 3D position of the pointer. This information, along with a model defining the locations of each object in the environment that is associated with a controllable electronic component, is used to determine what object a user is pointing at so as to select that object for further control actions.

    摘要: A security system architecture and method of operation that combines a local security network with control panel and sensors, a central monitoring station (CMS), and a separate operator computer server that provides a web portal for both the homeowner and CMS, that maintains a persistent connection between the control panel and CMS allowing failsafe dual-path signaling. This dual-path signaling technique is extended to provide an effective “smash and grab alarm”, and various approaches to dual-path signal management are disclosed including handshaking, persistent domain monitoring, relayed Operator 3-to-CMS signaling, etc. Improved processes for remotely accessing video are also disclosed along with an improved process for remote control panel configuration, and control panel interfacing with home automation appliances.

    摘要: An ear-fitting headphone restraint system includes an attachment assembly configured to be coupled to a portion of a stem of an ear-fitting headphone. The ear-fitting headphone is configured to be positioned against an ear canal of an ear. The system also includes a brace assembly coupled to the attachment assembly and configured to restrain the ear-fitting headphone against the ear canal by creating compression forces. The compression forces include a first compression force between the ear-fitting headphone and the ear canal. The compression forces further include a second compression force between a concha of the ear and the brace assembly. A first side of the brace assembly is configured to be positioned on a portion of the concha, and the attachment assembly is operable to transmit the first compression force and the second compression force between the brace assembly and the ear-fitting headphone.

    摘要: A computing device receives acceleration information from an accelerometer mechanically coupled to a wireless controller, magnetic bearing information from a magnetometer mechanically coupled to the wireless controller, and rotation information from a gyroscope mechanically coupled to the wireless controller. When the wireless controller is primarily vertical, the computing device determines a rotation angle of the wireless controller by filtering the rotation information using the acceleration information. When the wireless controller is primarily horizontal, the computing device determines the rotation angle of the wireless controller by filtering the rotation information using the magnetic bearing information.
