LOW BANDWIDTH TRANSMISSION OF EVENT DATA - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18237616 titled 'LOW BANDWIDTH TRANSMISSION OF EVENT DATA

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes devices, systems, and methods for low bandwidth transmission of event data.

  • A device is disclosed that includes one or more cameras, a non-transitory memory, and one or more processors.
  • The device obtains a set of images corresponding to a scene with a person.
  • The device generates pose information for the person based on the set of images, indicating the positions of body portions.
  • The pose information is transmitted in accordance with a bandwidth utilization criterion.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Surveillance systems: The low bandwidth transmission of event data can be useful in surveillance systems where real-time monitoring and transmission of pose information is required.
  • Virtual reality: The pose information generated can be used in virtual reality applications to track the movements and positions of users, enhancing the immersive experience.
  • Sports analysis: The technology can be applied in sports analysis to track and analyze the movements and positions of athletes during games or training sessions.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Bandwidth limitations: By utilizing low bandwidth transmission, the technology overcomes the limitations of bandwidth constraints, allowing for efficient transmission of pose information.
  • Real-time monitoring: The technology enables real-time monitoring of events and the transmission of pose information, providing timely and accurate data for analysis or action.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Cost-effective: The low bandwidth transmission reduces the need for high-speed internet connections or expensive data plans, making it a cost-effective solution.
  • Efficient data transmission: By transmitting only the pose information, the technology optimizes data transmission, reducing the amount of data that needs to be transmitted.
  • Accurate tracking: The generation of pose information allows for accurate tracking of body positions, providing valuable data for various applications.
