In a patent granted by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office on Tuesday July 13th, Apple reckons it can improve what its headset can offer, in relation to how it interacts with the user. It covers the ability for the system to keep track of a user’s movements, and then to use that data to perform other related actions.
According to the patent, Apple suggests the pose could be learned using a variety of cameras and neural networks, with multiple neural networks working together to model individual body joints. Each of the neural networks works individually, but the results are fed together to create the whole-body model.
Editorial note: this is yet another application that could develop fundamentally quicker with the PANN technology.
