Title: Apparatus for and method of minimizing specular reflections in imaging field of view of workstation that reads targets by image capture
Inventor: MARK DRZYMALA
IPC: G06K7/14
Filed: 2014-07-29
Abstract: A workstation (20) electro-optically reads targets by image capture, and includes a housing, a generally planar window (18), an imaging module, and a generally planar fold mirror (38) between the window and the module. The module has an illuminating light assembly for directing illumination light along an illumination path through the window at a target for return therefrom during reading, and an image sensing assembly for detecting return illumination light through the window along an imaging path over an imaging field of view (30) during reading. The fold mirror (18) folds the illumination and the imaging paths. The fold mirror (38) and the window (18) lie in planes that are substantially parallel to each other to prevent reflections of the illumination light off of the fold mirror (38) and the window (18) from entering the imaging field of view as virtual images that degrade target detection by the image sensing assembly.

Title: A system for use in a vehicle
Inventor: NIRANJAN MURTHY
IPC: G08G1/0962
Filed: 2014-02-21
Abstract: A system 10 for use in a vehicle having a selected vehicle language, the system comprising image capture means 40 for capturing a scene external to the vehicle, wherein thescene includes one or more information indicators (signs, e.g. 62,64) including text in a country or foreign language different from the vehicle language. The system outputs signals representative of both the selected vehicle language and the country language to an off-board server. The system also outputs the text to the off-board server 52 for translation from the country language into the vehicle language. The translated text is communicated to the vehicle occupants, using multiple speakers 30 in different positions in the vehicle. The information is communicated through a speaker according to the position of the speaker and the position of the information indicator in the image scene. In an alternative arrangement (Fig. 6) the system carries a translator on-board the vehicle. The system could also provide translations of symbols used in road-signs, and could derive the country language using a GPS sensor.

Title: Voice command triggered speech enhancement
Inventor: ROBERT JAMES HATFIELD
IPC: G10L21/0208
Filed: 2014-12-17
Abstract: Received data representing speech is stored, and a trigger detection block detects a presence of data representing a trigger phrase in the received data. In response, a first part of the stored data representing at least a part of the trigger phrase is supplied to an adaptive speech enhancement block, which is trained on the first part of the stored data to derive adapted parameters for the speech enhancement block. A second part of the stored data, overlapping with the first part of the stored data, is supplied to the adaptive speech enhancement block operating with said adapted parameters, to form enhanced stored data. A second trigger phrase detection block detects the presence of data representing the trigger phrase in the enhanced stored data. In response, enhanced speech data are output from the speech enhancement block for further processing, such as speech recognition. Detecting the presence of data representing the trigger phrase in the received data is carried out by means of a first trigger phrase detection block, detecting the presence of data representing the trigger phrase in the enhanced stored data is carried out by means of a second trigger phrase detection block, and the second trigger phrase detection block operates with different, typically more rigorous, detection criteria from the first trigger phrase detection block.

Title: Assembly for preventing phase error
Inventor: DIMITRIS GRIMANIS
IPC: H03G11/00
Filed: 2017-09-14
Abstract: A circuit includes an input unit 12, a filter unit 14, a unit 16 described as a slicer or a high pass filter, a subtraction unit 18 and an addition unit 20. The input unit 12 provides an original audio signal OAS. The filter unit 14 selects one part of the original audio signal according to a pre-set bandwidth setting on the filter unit to form a first audio signal FAS. The subtraction unit 18 subtracts the first audio signal FAS from the original audio signal OAS to form a third audio signal TAS. According to the invention, the slicer unit analyses the amplitude magnitude of the first audio signal according to a pre-set threshold amplitude to form a second audio signal SAS. The second audio signal and the third audio signal have the same phase retardation. The addition unit adds the second audio signal SAS and the third audio TAS signal to form a fourth audio signal FAS, said to be equal to the original audio signal (OAS). The circuit prevents phase errors.
