Sensors, algorithms and applications for a high dimensional touchpad
A high dimensional touchpad (HDTP) controls a variety of computer windows systems and applications by detecting a user's finger movement in the left-right, forward-backward, roll, pitch, yaw, and downward pressure directions. Measurements obtained from the touchpad of at least two attributes of finger movement at two different time intervals are used to provide a first and a second finger position attribute used to control an application on an electronic device. The finger roll angle is determined by detecting the edge and the peak region of a finger contact area. Also, a visual color displayed in an application operating on an electronic device is controlled by a measured-angle value of a finger in contact with a touchpad.

Antenna assembly decoupling positioners and associated methods
An antenna assembly for operation on a moving platform includes a base to be mounted on the moving platform, an azimuthal positioner extending upwardly from the base, and a canted cross-level positioner extending from the azimuthal positioner at a cross-level cant angle canted from perpendicular. The canted cross-level positioner may be rotatable about a cross-level axis to define a roll angle resulting in coupling between the azimuthal and canted cross-level positioners. The antenna assembly may also include an elevational positioner connected to the canted cross-level positioner resulting in coupling between the elevational and the azimuthal positioners because of the roll angle. An antenna may be connected to the elevational positioner. A controller operates the azimuthal, canted cross-level, and elevational positioners to aim the antenna along a desired line-of-sight and while decoupling at least one of the azimuthal and canted cross-level positioners, and the azimuthal and elevational positioners.

An improved automatic image capture system for an intelligent mobile device having a camera guides a user to position the camera so only a single image needs to be automatically captured. A trapezoidal view finder on a display of the intelligent mobile device may be used to orient the camera with respect to a target document so there is an appropriate pitch and roll angle between the camera and the target document to avoid shadows caused by the camera or user. Further the user is guided to maximize the occupancy of the view finder with the document so that the document is maximized within the view finder. When all requisite conditions are satisfied, the camera automatically captures the image of the document for post-processing.

Method and device for determining the location of an endoscope
A technician-free strategy enables real-time guidance of bronchoscopy. The approach uses measurements of the bronchoscope's movement to predict its position in 3D virtual space. To achieve this, a bronchoscope model, defining the device's shape in the airway tree to a given point p, provides an insertion depth to p. In real time, the invention compares an observed bronchoscope insertion depth and roll angle, measured by an optical sensor, to precalculated insertion depths along a predefined route in the virtual airway tree to predict a bronchoscope's location and orientation.
