Robotic manipulation methods and systems for executing a domain-specific application in an instrumented environment with electronic minimanipulation libraries

Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to the technical features relating to the ability of being able to create complex robotic humanoid movements, actions, and interactions with tools and the instrumented environment by automatically building movements for the humanoid; actions and behaviors of the humanoid based on a set of computer-encoded robotic movement and action primitives. The primitives are defined by motions / actions of articulated degrees of freedom that range in complexity from simple to complex, and which can be combined in any form in serial / parallel fashion. These motion-primitives are termed to be minimanipulations and each has a clear time-indexed command input-structure and output behavior / performance profile that is intended to achieve a certain function. Minimanipulations comprise a new way of creating a general programmable-by-example platform for humanoid robots. One or more minimanipulation electronic libraries provide a large suite of higher-level sensing-and-execution sequences that are common building blocks for complex tasks, such as cooking, taking care of the infirm, or other tasks performed by the next generation of humanoid robots.

Multipath delivery for adaptive streaming

A method for delivering content via adaptive streaming technique over multiple communication paths and a device implementing the method are disclosed.
The method for providing a content to be rendered at a client device comprises at least a first past being identified by the address of a first interface and the address of a first server interface, and a second path being identified by the address of a second interface and and the address of a second server interface, the content being available under at least two versions having an encoding quality corresponding to a supported bit rate constraint, each of the at least two versions being temporally split into chunks corresponding to an identical rendered duration of the content, a chunk being identified by a time index i and by one of the supported bit rate.
According to the invention the method comprises the steps of:
    • measuring a first available bit rate on the first path and a second available bit rate on the second path;
    • determining a requested bit rate among the supported bit rate from the measured first available bit rate and from the measured second available bit rate;
    • sending a first request via the first path for receiving a first part of the chunk identified by the time index i and by the requested bit rate and a second request via the second path for receiving a second part of said chunk, said of the chunk being complementary; and each of said parts of the chunk having a size being computed from the determined available bit rate;
    • receiving the requested first part via the first path and the requested second part via the second path.

Multiple sampling via a time-indexed method to achieve wide dynamic ranges

An architecture for a digital pixel sensor is disclosed in which the dynamic range of the sensor is increased by taking samples of a subject to be recorded, where each sample is taken over an interval of a different duration than the other samples. In the preferred embodiment of the invention, an array of pixel elements is fabricated in an integrated circuit. Each of the pixel elements outputs a digital signal and comprises a photodetector and an analog to digital converter. The photodetector is integrated with the analog to digital converter. An array of threshold memory cells, each corresponding to one of the pixel elements, is also provided. An array of time memory cells, each corresponding to one of the pixel elements, establishes a different sampling time for each of the pixel elements for each of multiple samples. An array of memory elements, each coupled to one of the pixel elements, is also provided. The memory elements are also fabricated in the integrated circuit. The memory elements only receive a value from a corresponding one of the pixel elements when the content in a corresponding one of the threshold memory cells permits. In this way, multiple samples may be collected for a subject to be recorded to thereby extend the dynamic range of a photodetector. Integration of the photodetector and the memory that implements this mechanism into the same integrated circuit avoids the latency that would be experienced if an external memory was used.
