Abstract:
A method for computer vision based control of a fixture including identifying in an image a user indicating at the fixture and based on the identification of a user indicating at the fixture causing a processor associated with the fixture to generate an identifying signal. The method may include causing a control device to assign the fixture to a group of fixtures based on the identifying signal.
Abstract:
A mobile terminal according to the present disclosure may include a body; a wireless communication unit configured to perform communication with an external communication device; and a touch screen formed to display a home screen and sense a touch; and a controller configured to control the touch screen to display a control screen for performing control on at least part of external devices at a place at which the body is located based on the external communication device connected through the wireless communication unit when a predetermined type of touch is applied to the touch screen while displaying the home screen.
Abstract:
A rain gutter illumination system having a cover for attaching to a rain gutter with an aperture along the substantial length of the cover, and opposing recesses for retaining a decorative insert. When the decorative insert is inserted in the cover, it is held in place by the recesses, and a light source and optional diffusing panel may be arranged in the cover so that the light source projects light through the aperture of the illuminable surface. The light source may be remotely controllable using a wireless remote control device, such as a smart phone over a network connection.
Abstract:
An information processing apparatus that detects an input operation to a touch panel based on an output of the touch panel; creates an operation command to change content displayed on a display apparatus based on a detected input operation to the touch panel; and controls a wireless interface to transmit the operation command to the display apparatus controlling the display apparatus to change the content displayed on the display apparatus.
Abstract:
According to some embodiments, system comprises a metrological device operative to collect and transmit measurement data; and a hands-free communication device operative to receive the collected data and communicate the data to a user. Numerous other aspects are provided.
Abstract:
A discrete electrode telemetry device includes a single female snap receptor in a leadless body. The single female snap receptor attaches to a single male snap post of a single discrete standard circular disposable electrode patch, wherein the sensor comprises a plurality of plug-in interface ports for multiple use reference electrodes on the leadless body thereof. A multiplexor circuit is engineered to multiplex and combine a plurality of signal data collected from the interface ports as an output thereof. A wireless transmitter module is disposed in connection with the single female snap receptor, the wireless transmitter configured to transmit the piecewise multiplexed and combined signal data to a smart phone based on a connection and a disconnection of the single female snap receptor thereto. Furthermore, a spooled memory stores and relays the plurality of signal data for a multiplexed and a composite transmission from the wireless transmitter module.
Abstract:
A system and method used to configure a smart device to command functional operations of a target appliance. The smart device retrieves from a controllable appliance, such as a settop box, data indicative of a codeset identity of the target appliance wherein the codeset identity was determined during a process used to configure a conventional universal remote control to command functional operations of the target appliance and wherein the process used to configure the conventional universal remote control is performed in cooperation with the controllable appliance. A remote control application resident on the smart device then uses the data indicative of the codeset identity retrieved from the controllable appliance to also configure the smart device to command functional operations of the target appliance.
Abstract:
Methods, systems, and media for controlling a remote device using a touchscreen of a mobile device in a display inhibited state are provided. In some implementations, a method for controlling media playback devices is provided, the method comprising: detecting a media playback device to be controlled; determining that a touch-sensitive display of a mobile device has entered a display inhibited state in which presentation of a plurality of user interface elements is inhibited; receiving an input from the touch-sensitive display in the display inhibited state; selecting an action of the media playback device to be performed by determining that the received input corresponds to a user interface element from the plurality of user interface elements; and transmitting an instruction to perform the selected action to the media playback device.
Abstract:
A wireless control device includes a power source, one or more sensors, one or more switches, a wireless transceiver circuit, an antenna connected to the wireless transceiver circuit, and a processor communicably coupled to the power source, the one or more sensors, the one or more switches, and the wireless transceiver circuit. The processor receives a data from the one or more sensors or the one or more switches, determines a pre-defined action associated with the data that identifies one or more external devices and one or more tasks, and transmits one or more control signals via the wireless transceiver circuit and the antenna that instruct the identified external device(s) to perform the identified task(s).
