A system and method for concurrently streaming audio and video data in different qualities through a single input signal is provided. Audio and video data are captured for monitoring at a selectable rate set by a remote computing device. The captured A/V data is stored in a local memory as a local data stream with a high definition and may be streamed locally at a high rate. Simultaneously, the captured A/V data is manipulated in different (lower) quality for transmission as a remote data stream based on remote instructions. The local data stream is also streamed to the remote computing device.

System and method for concurrent data streams from a singular sensor with remotely selectable parameters

A system and method for capturing images and reconstructing full images based on the captured image for identification. An image captured by streamed video is used to identify an image of an individual based on facial recognition algorithms. Features of the individual's face image are identified and used for determining measurement and alignment of the individual face image. Based on the measurement and alignment of the individual face image, further facial images of the individual are extrapolated and reconstructed. The reconstructed facial images of the individuals are compared with facial data stored in a database and the identification of the individual is performed.

System to overcome the two-dimensional nature of the captured images when attempting to generate three-dimensional measurement data

A method of providing assistance from an assistant to a user, wherein the user and the assistant are remote from each other, includes obtaining an image of an area adjacent the user, transmitting the image from the user to the assistant, and displaying the image on a display to the assistant. The method also includes transmitting a message generated by the assistant relating to the image from the assistant to the user and audibly outputting the message to the user.

Remote guidance system

A navigation system helps users navigate through an environment by a plurality of sensors. The sensors include one or both of short and long range sensors that detect objects within the user's environment. Information obtained from the sensors' detection of objects within the user's environment can be used to help the user avoid colliding with objects within the environment and help navigate the user to a destination. The navigation system may provide the user with audible feedback regarding the objects with the user's environment and/or instructions regarding how to avoid colliding with an object and how to navigate to a destination.

Assisted guidance navigation

A combination of techniques for modifying sound provided to headphones to simulate a surround-sound speaker environment with listener adjustments. In one embodiment, Head Related Transfer Functions (HRTFs) are grouped into multiple groups, with four types of HRTF filters or other perceptual models being used and selectable by a user. Alternately, a custom filter or perceptual model can be generated from measurements of the user's body, such as optical or acoustic measurements of the user's head, shoulders and pinna. Also, the user can select a speaker type, as well as other adjustments, such as head size and amount of wall reflections.

Virtual surround for headphones and earbuds headphone externalization system

A wireless audio headphone communication system has an audio input for receiving an audio signal from an audio source. A wireless transceiver receives and transmits radio frequency communications with a wireless audio headphone, the communications including an audio control signal that conforms to a wireless audio control protocol of a wireless communication protocol. A converter converts the audio control signal between the wireless audio control protocol transceived by the wireless transceiver and a local control protocol for controlling the audio source.
