  • Publication number: 20230302737
    Abstract: According to examples, a processor may obtain a digital model of a screen including pores that is to be implemented in a formation of a wet part from a slurry. The processor may obtain a digital model of a feature to be added to the screen, in which the feature is to impart a detail onto the wet part during formation of the wet part and may incorporate the digital model of the feature with the digital model of the screen. The processor may also identify locations in the digital model of the feature that are in line with pores in the digital model of the screen and modify the digital model of the feature to add pores at the identified locations in the digital model of the feature to extend the pores in the digital model of the screen through the digital model of the feature.

  • Publication number: 20220143925
    Abstract: According to examples, an apparatus may include a processor and a memory on which are stored machine-readable instructions that when executed by the processor may cause the processor to access data for a 3D object to be fabricated. The instructions may also cause the processor to determine an orientation that the 3D object is to have relative to a support structure that is to support the 3D object the 3D object. The support structure may have an configuration and may be removed from the 3D object following a post-print processing of the 3D object. The instructions may further cause the support structure to be fabricated in first layers of build material particles and the 3D object to be fabricated in second layers of build material particles.

  • Patent number: 9445052
    Abstract: Metadata associated with a first image and that specifies an alignment reference line for the first image is accessed. Based on the accessed metadata associated with the first image, a layout for concurrently displaying the first image and a second image at a location is defined that substantially aligns the alignment reference line of the first image with an aspect of the second image.

  • Publication number: 20120249877
    Abstract: Implementations disclosed herein relate to determining position information for displaying video streams of multiple aspect ratios. In one implementation, a processor determines position information for widows for displaying incoming video streams based on the aspect ratios of the incoming video streams. The processor may then provide the determined position information.

  • Patent number: 8040369
    Abstract: A system and method of virtually passing an object in near real time between separated participants in a remote conference session is disclosed. The method includes providing a video screen at first and second locations. An object can be inserted into a scanning device coupled to a scanner opening located proximate to the video conference screen in the first location to form a scanned object file. Video imaging of the insertion of the object can be transmitted and displayed at the second location. The scanned object file can be received and printed at the second location in near real time and output through a printer opening positioned proximate the video screen at the second location to create an illusion of virtually passing the object between locations.

  • Publication number: 20110219305
    Abstract: A coordinated media control system includes a node manager, a device control system, and a device. The node manager is operatively connected to a first node. The device control system is operatively connected to the node manager. The device is operatively connected to the device control system. The node manager is configured to establish and coordinate media streams for transmitting media from the device to a second node or for receiving media to the device from the second node.

  • Publication number: 20110179157
    Abstract: An event management system is configured to host a first event that includes a first set of event endpoints that provides first and second sets of media streams to respective first and second sets of attendees during the first event. The event management system is configured to, while hosting the first event, create a second event that includes a second set of event endpoints that provide a third set of media streams to at least one of the first set of attendees and a fourth set of media streams during the second event. At least one of the second set of event endpoints is sufficiently separated from each of the first set of event endpoints so that the second event does not substantially interfere with the first event.
