Abstract: The embodiments disclose an apparatus including a system and method for displaying wheel styles and artwork on vehicles to allow customers to make an informed purchasing decision at the dealer location regarding different wheel styles or paint colors and paint pattern artwork choices to purchase for their vehicle. This system and method enables a sales person to show a customer a variety of wheel styles, tires, paint colors, paint patterns and various decorations, such as pinstriping, will look on the customers actual vehicle by holograph or conventional projection of the products displayed on the vehicle. Purchasers can also use a smartphone mobile application to superimpose products onto a photo of their vehicle on a smartphone display screen or view images in combination with a smartphone projector or virtual reality headset 3D viewer and their smartphone to get a complete 3D view of the product choices that the user can make for their vehicle.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are disclosed for improving the sensitivity, angular resolution and range of motion detectors, occupancy sensors and similar systems. Specifically, an improved infrared input section is described which employs at least one additional lens, possibly segmented, before a lens array. This pre-focusing lens collects incident infrared radiation over the entire entrance aperture and partially focuses it onto one element of the lens array. The final lens array which focuses the radiation onto a detector may be an array of Fresnel lenses as in the prior art, an array of microlenses or a diffractive optics array. It is also possible to implement this system is such a way that moving infrared sources at any angular orientation will be detected as opposed to prior art systems in which only sources which cross the planes separating an array of angular sectors are detected.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus is disclosed for controlling electrical loads as a function of displacement detection of objects within a monitored zone by utilizing the non-Doppler shifted component of an electromagnetic, acoustic, microwave, infrared, or optical field. In the case of an ultrasonic field, a transmitter generates an ultrasonic transmission frequency into a zone to be monitored. Information is extracted from the spatial and temporal variation of the amplitude and/or phase of the total ultrasonic field at the original (i.e. non-Doppler shifted) frequency of transmission. At a detection stage, after filtering all Doppler returns, the signal received from each of a plurality of receivers/transducers, if not already digital, is digitized and passed to a gate array, microprocessor, or similar processing means where amplitude and/or phase changes are demodulated to control one or more electrical loads, for example, lighting, alarms, A/C according to an embedded algorithm within the processor. These algorithms can process the input signal to self-calibrate the system, may be adaptive, and can incorporate learning by experience features. Artificial intelligence techniques employing expert systems incorporating certainty factors and/or fuzzy logic systems can be employed to construct truly intelligent sensors. Furthermore, any variants of this new type of detector can be combined with each other or with prior art motion detectors or occupancy sensors to form a multi-technology system which minimizes the deficiencies of any single technology.

Abstract: A passive infrared detection system which has a wide angular field of view and a flat or nearly flat front surface. Input optical elements direct and/or focus incident peripheral infrared radiation onto one or more internal Fresnel lens arrays and/or a sensitive area of a detector, including radiation having incident angles of less than about 30°. Because of the absence of protruding elements improved performance and greater functionality can be obtained by employing larger or multiple infrared input windows and/or opto-electronic sections without degrading the aesthetic appearance of the unit.
