Title: Augmented reality building operations tool

Abstract

A method (700) for providing an augmented reality operations tool to a mobile client (642) positioned in a building (604). The method (700) includes, with a server (660), receiving (720) from the client (642) an augmented reality request for building system equipment (612) managed by an energy management system (EMS) (620). The method (700) includes transmitting (740) a data request for the equipment (612) to the EMS (620) and receiving (750) building management data (634) for the equipment (612). The method (700) includes generating (760) an overlay (656) with an object created based on the building management data (634), which may be sensor data, diagnostic procedures, or the like. The overlay (656) is configured for concurrent display on a display screen (652) of the client (642) with a real-time image of the building equipment (612). The method (700) includes transmitting (770) the overlay (656) to the client (642).

Machine learning simulation of finite element analysis in augmented reality

Patent Scherer, Derek Carl

Media, method and system for approximating a finite element analysis texture map for an object. To accomplish this, the object is converted to a computer generated model and finite element analysis is performed for a plurality of different simulated inputs to generate a plurality of simulated mappings. Each simulated mapping is converted into a simulated texture map. A machine learning model is trained on the simulated inputs and simulated texture maps to generate a texture map which approximates a finite element analysis. The machine learning model receives a user input and generates the texture map therefrom. The texture map ismore » « less

Scalable augmented enumeration and metadata operations for large filesystems

Patent Grider, Gary A.

Systems, apparatus, and methods are disclosed for performing scalable operations in a file system. Metadata entries in a namespace or directory tree are sharded across multiple file metadata servers. An augmented enumeration operation, such as listing a directory, is parallelized across the multiple file metadata servers, transparently to clients. Exemplary augmentation features can include filtering and sorting. Augmentation features can be executed concurrently with enumeration, prior to enumeration, after enumeration, or as a combination of these, and can utilize pre-built index structures or holding structures for intermediate results. Augmented enumeration operations can also include no-output operations such as changing filemore » « less
