    Abstract: An audio content providing apparatus (2000) acquires user position information (80) that indicates a user position (30). The audio content providing apparatus (2000) sets a sound image localization position (50) on the basis of the user position (30) and a reference position (40), in a case where a user (20) is present in a target region (70). Here, a distance between the user position (30) and the sound image localization position (50) is shorter than a distance between the user position (30) and the reference position (40). The audio content providing apparatus (2000) outputs audio content (10) such that a sound image is localized at the sound image localization position (50).

    Abstract: A system for analysis of sonar data is provided comprising sonar transducer assembl(ies), processor(s), and a memory. The memory includes computer program code that is configured to, when executed, cause processor(s) to receive sonar data, where an object is represented within sonar data, and additional data from a data source other than the sonar transducer assembl(ies). The processor(s) further determine object characteristic(s) of the object using sonar data and additional data, and determine an estimated object-type for the object represented within sonar data using the object characteristic(s). The processor(s) further generate a sonar image based on sonar data, cause display of the sonar image, and cause provision of an indication of the estimated object-type so that the indication of the estimated object-type is correlated to the object representation in the sonar image.

    Abstract: A method and apparatus for an angle meter cooperatively using two or more non-contact distance meters for measuring distances to a surface along substantially parallel lines. The measured distances are used for estimating or calculating the angle to the surface and the distance to the surface. The distance meters may use optical means, where a visible or non-visible light or laser beam is emitted and received, acoustical means, where an audible or ultrasound sound is emitted and received, or an electro-magnetic scheme, where radar beam is transmitted and received. The distances may be estimated using a Time-of-Flight (TOF), homodyne or heterodyne phase detection schemes. The distance meters may share the same correlator, signal conditioning circuits, or the same sensor. Two or more angle meters may be used defining parallel or perpendicular measurement planes, for measuring angles between surfaces, and for estimating physical dimensions such as length, area or volume.

    Abstract: An acoustic analysis system includes an acoustic sensor array that receives acoustic signals from a target scene and outputs acoustic data based on the received acoustic signals. A processor receives a plurality of acoustic data sets from the acoustic sensor array, representative of the target scene at different points in time. The processor determines one or more locations within the target scene represented by the plurality of acoustic data sets, each being a location of an acoustic signal emitted from the target scene. For each acoustic signal, the processor classifies the acoustic signal as an intermittent acoustic signal or a continuous acoustic signal, generates accumulated-time acoustic image data based on the plurality of acoustic data sets, and generates an accumulated-time display image for presentation on a display. Within the accumulated-time display image, acoustic signals classified as intermittent acoustic signals are distinguished from acoustic signals classified as continuous acoustic signals.

    CPC classification number: A01K91/20 G01S15/08

    Abstract: The invention relates to measuring probe (100) for a spinning or casting rod (1) comprising a housing (101) with connection means (102a, 102b) on the housing (101) for securing the measuring probe (100) to a fishing line (2) of the rod (1) above the lure (3). The sensors include at least one of: an accelerometer (104), a gyroscope (105), a water pressure sensor (112), and an active sonar unit (111). The measuring probe (100) further comprises a wireless communication unit (108), preferably Bluetooth for transmitting stored sensor data to an external device when the measuring probe (100) is above the water surface (5), and a battery (110) for powering the measuring probe (100).
