System and method for adaptive range 3D scanning

Title: System and method for adaptive range 3D scanning

Abstract

A scanner system is configured for acquiring three dimensional image information of an object. The scanner includes a projector, a camera, a graphics processing device, and a processor. The projector projects one of several pre-defined patterns upon the object. The camera captures an image from the object, which is received by the processor. The processor approximates mutual information from the object and the pattern using the graphics processing device, and selects a second pattern for projecting on the object.

Adaptive CT scanning system

Patent Sampayan, Stephen E.

Apparatus, systems, and methods that provide an X-ray interrogation system having a plurality of stationary X-ray point sources arranged to substantially encircle an area or space to be interrogated. A plurality of stationary detectors are arranged to substantially encircle the area or space to be interrogated, A controller is adapted to control the stationary X-ray point sources to emit X-rays one at a time, and to control the stationary detectors to detect the X-rays emitted by the stationary X-ray point sources.

Adaptive model training system and method

Patent Bickford, Randall L; Palnitkar, Rahul M

An adaptive model training system and method for filtering asset operating data values acquired from a monitored asset for selectively choosing asset operating data values that meet at least one predefined criterion of good data quality while rejecting asset operating data values that fail to meet at least the one predefined criterion of good data quality; and recalibrating a previously trained or calibrated model having a learned scope of normal operation of the asset by utilizing the asset operating data values that meet at least the one predefined criterion of good data quality for adjusting the learned scope of normalmore » « less

Method and system for rendering and interacting with an adaptable computing environment

Patent Osbourn, Gordon Cecil [Albuquerque, NM]; Bouchard, Ann Marie [Albuquerque, NM]

An adaptable computing environment is implemented with software entities termed "s-machines", which self-assemble into hierarchical data structures capable of rendering and interacting with the computing environment. A hierarchical data structure includes a first hierarchical s-machine bound to a second hierarchical s-machine. The first hierarchical s-machine is associated with a first layer of a rendering region on a display screen and the second hierarchical s-machine is associated with a second layer of the rendering region overlaying at least a portion of the first layer. A screen element s-machine is linked to the first hierarchical s-machine. The screen element s-machine manages datamore » « less

Algae cultivation systems and methods adapted for weather variations

Patent Hazlebeck, David A.; Corpuz, Rodney

Algae cultivation systems and methods account for weather variations that can affect algae cultivation. In one system, an open raceway algae cultivation system includes a channel having a high section and a low liquid collection section. The channel is sloped to allow substantially all of an algae cultivation fluid in the high section to flow downwardly into the low liquid collection section. A barrier is removably positioned in the high section and a drain is positioned in the high section such that, when substantially all of the algae cultivation fluid has collected in the low liquid collection section, any rainwatermore » « less

System and method for compact adaptive free space optical communications

Patent Panas, Robert Matthew

The present disclosure relates to a free-space optical communications system that may make use of a controller and a digital micro mirror (DMM) assembly in communication with the controller. The DMM may have a plurality of independently controllable micromirror elements forming both an emitter and a receiver. A laser is included which is configured to generate an optical beam which may be applied to select ones of the first subpluralities of micromirror elements to generate a transmitted free space optical signal along a selected vector. A detector is included for receiving an incoming free space optical signal imaged by atmore » least one of the micromirror elements. « less
