The present subject matter discloses a system(s) and a method(s) for determining a health state of an individual. According to an embodiment, a method comprises measuring, by a heart rate sensor, a heart rate of the individual during operation within the environment. The method further comprises outputting, by a pressure sensing platform, pressure data of the individual. Further, the method comprises outputting, by an image capturing device, image data of the individual. The method further comprises inferring, by a processing unit, an amount of fat of the individual in the image data. The method further comprises updating, by the processing unit, the amount of fat of the individual using the pressure data. The method further comprises controlling, by the processing unit, a threshold for determining the health state of the individual, using the amount of fat and the heart rate of the individual.

Determining health state of individuals

The present subject matter refers a method for training image-alignment procedures in a computing environment. The method comprises communicating one or more images of an object to a user and receiving a plurality of user-selected zones within said one or more through a user-interface. An augmented data-set is generated based on said one or more images comprising the user-selected zones, wherein such augmented data set comprises a plurality of additional images defining variants of said one or more communicated images. Thereafter, a machine-learning based image alignment is trained based on at-least one of the augmented data set and the communicated images.

Method and system for training image-alignment procedures in computing environment

The present disclosure relates to a method and system for apportioning tasks to person in an environment. The method comprises capturing a first-value indicating a sympathetic-nerve based activity and a second-value indicating a parasympathetic-nerve based activity for at least one person operating in an environment. Thereafter, a quantitative-relation is determined between the first and second values. At-least one task is assigned for execution by said person within the environment based on such quantitative relation.

Method and system for apportioning tasks to persons in environment

A method implemented in a computing-device with a display screen for image inspection. The method comprises displaying a distribution of a quality-indicia of at least one object in each of a plurality of images to be inspected, within a first area of the display screen. Within a second area of the display screen, a user-control is displayed to adjust a threshold-value with respect to an acceptance of at least one object in said plurality of images to be inspected. The threshold-value may be determined manually or automatically. A change in or update of threshold value is determined based on a user-operation performed over the user-control for adjusting the threshold value. Thereafter, a quality-indicia of at least one object in each the plurality of images is determined. Acceptable objects in respect of an image inspection procedure based on the updated threshold value and the determined quality-indicia are indicated.

Methods and systems for monitoring objects for image-inspection

There is provided a computer-implemented method for generating an output with respect to a group of individuals. The method includes: identifying the group of individuals amongst a plurality of individuals in an area being monitored by one or more sensors; determining, for each individual in the group of individuals, one or more individual-based features associated with the individual based on sensing data obtained from the one or more sensors; determining a group characteristic information associated with the group of individuals based on the one or more individual-based features determined for each individual in the group; and generating the output based on the group characteristic information determined for the group of individuals. There is also provide a corresponding system for generating an output with respect to a group of individuals.

Method and system for generating an output with respect to a group of individuals

There is provided a haptic system for providing sensory augmentation to a subject, the haptic system including a haptic surface for interacting with the subject, the haptic surface including an array of haptic portions, each haptic portion configured to be controllable to perform a haptic action; an image generator configured to generate a depth map based on information obtained on a scene captured of a surrounding environment; and a controller configured to control each of the array of haptic portions based on a property of a corresponding portion of the depth map. There is also provided a corresponding method for providing sensory augmentation to a subject and a vehicle having installed therein the haptic system.
