  • Publication number: 20240078353
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for generating a 3D model representing a factory. The method includes obtaining a point cloud from a scan of the factory and fitting the point cloud with linear CAD extrusions. Such a method is an improved solution for generating a 3D model representing a factory.

  • Publication number: 20240061980
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method of machine-learning including obtaining a training dataset of B-rep graphs. Each B-rep graph represents a respective B-rep. Each B-rep graph comprises graph nodes each representing an edge, a face or a co-edge of the respective B-rep and being associated with one or more geometrical and/or topological features. Each B-rep graph includes graph edges each between a respective first graph node representing a respective co-edge and a respective second graph node representing a face, an edge, an adjacent co-edge, or a mating co-edge associated with the respective co-edge. The method further includes learning, based on the training dataset, a Deep CAD neural network. The Deep CAD neural network is configured to take as input a B-rep graph and to output a topological signature of the B-rep represented by the input B-rep graph.

  • Patent number: 11893687
    Abstract: The disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method comprising inputting a representation of a 3D modeled object to an abstraction neural network which outputs a first set of a first number of first primitives fitting the 3D modeled object; and determining, from the first set, one or more second sets each of a respective second number of respective second primitives. The second number is lower than the first number. The determining includes initializing a third set of third primitives as the first set and performing one or more iterations, each comprising to merging one or more subsets of third primitives together each into one respective single fourth primitive, to thereby obtain a fourth set of fourth primitives. Each iteration further comprises setting the third set of a next iteration as the fourth set of a current iteration and setting the one or more second sets as one or more obtained fourth sets.

  • Patent number: 8957324
    Abstract: The invention relates to a printed circuit for high-frequency signals, and more particularly to interconnect means between transmission lines situated on different faces of the printed circuit. According to the invention, in the vicinity of the interconnect means, the transmission lines each extend in a main direction. The interconnect means comprise two vias each extending along an axis. In a plane containing the main direction of a first of the transmission lines and perpendicular to the face bearing the first transmission line, an orthogonal fix is formed whose abscissa is borne by the main direction of the first transmission line. The abscissae of the axes of the vias or of their projection on the plane, perpendicularly to the plane, are separate.

  • Patent number: 8540523
    Abstract: A connection device for high frequency signals is disclosed. The connection device includes a printed circuit having an external face and a transmission line printed on the external face, and a coaxial connector surface mounted on the external face of the printed circuit. The transmission line is connected to the connector by means of a bump contact belonging to the transmission line. A central core of the connector is connected to the bump contact. The printed circuit has at least one internal ground plane disposed parallel to the external face and contributing to the matching of the transmission line. The internal ground plane defines a perforation therethrough that faces the bump contact.

  • Patent number: 8089328
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electronic switching device for high-frequency signals. The invention is of particular use in the connection between a microwave frequency antenna and an electronic circuit. This circuit comprises one or two access points designed to be connected to the antenna forming a third access point. In the case of a switch between one access point and the antenna (called an SPST switch), it comprises two switching diodes, one, called a serial diode, being connected in series between the access points and the other, called a shunt diode, between one of the access points and an earth of the device.

  • Publication number: 20110217853
    Abstract: A connection device for high frequency signals includes a printed circuit on one external face of which is printed a transmission line and a coaxial connector surface mounted on the printed circuit on the external face. The invention is of particular use for the transmission of radiofrequency signals in the X band, in particular for frequencies from 9 to 10 GHz. The transmission line is connected to the connector by means of a bump contact belonging to the transmission line to which is attached a central core of the connector. The printed circuit comprises at least one internal ground plane parallel to the external face and contributing to the matching of the transmission line. The invention aims to improve the transparency of the transition between the connector and the transmission line. According to the invention, the internal ground plane is perforated by means of a resist facing the bump contact.
