Patent number: 11935188Abstract: A system and method is provided for constructing a labeled and dimensioned multidimensional (e.g., 3D) building model from building object imagery (e.g., ground-level imagery). The method begins by retrieve building object imagery, the building object imagery collected based on directed capture with a mobile device. The method continues by constructing a scaled multi-dimensional building model, the scale based on sizing of at least one selected architectural feature. The method continues by identifying architectural elements within facades of the multi-dimensional building model. The method continues by determining dimensions of at least one of the architectural elements, the dimensions based on the scale. The method continues by determining dimensions (e.g., area) of at least one of the architectural elements. The method continues by labeling each identified architectural element with at least an identifier and by labeling at least one of the architectural elements with the determined dimensions.Type: GrantFiled: April 25, 2023Date of Patent: March 19, 2024Assignee: Hover Inc.Inventors: Derek Halliday, Antonio Carlos Marques da Silva Junior, Roberto Klein, Adam J.

Patent number: 11670046Abstract: The scale of modeled building objects from collected imagery is determined by identifying architectural elements within building object imagery, determining a scale of the identified architectural elements by matching them to known industry standard architectural element based on dimensional ratio comparisons and deriving an average scaling factor based on scale of the identified architectural elements. A three dimensional model of the building object is scaled according to the average scaling. Scaled architecture elements within a relative error can be used for scaling the model according to an updated scale factor.Type: GrantFiled: January 25, 2022Date of Patent: June 6, 2023Assignee: Hover Inc.Inventors: Derek Halliday, Antonio Carlos Marques da Silva Junior, Roberto Klein, Adam J.

Patent number: 10902672Abstract: Determining the scale of building objects within collected imagery is determined by identifying architectural elements within stored building object imagery, determining dimensional ratios for the identified architectural elements, matching the identified architectural element to a known industry standard architectural element based on dimensional ratio comparisons and determining a scaling factor of the building object imagery based on relative error to the determined scale of the identified architectural elements. A three dimensional model of the building object constructed from said building object imagery may be scaled by the scaling factor, and dimensions such as measurements for its components determined.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2020Date of Patent: January 26, 2021Assignee: Hover Inc.Inventors: Derek Halliday, Antonio Carlos Marques da Silva, Jr., Roberto Klein, Adam J.

Patent number: 6519082Abstract: An apparatus and method for a self-adjusting Raman amplifier for fiber optic transmission lines incorporating a line diagnostic mechanism in order to calculate, control and optimize the operating parameters for the amplifier. A Line Analyzing Unit, adjacent to the Raman pump unit, operates before the Raman pump is enabled and during operation, and characterizes the transmission line. The Line Analyzing Unit determines and characterizes the types of optical fibers installed along the transmission line and calculates and optimizes the pump or pumps power in order to achieve optimum gain, gain equalization and gain tilt. The Line Analyzing Unit may also determine if there is an optical loss or reflection in the optical fiber that can be destructive when the high power Raman pump is operating.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2002Date of Patent: February 11, 2003Assignee: Redc Optical Networks Ltd.Inventors: Uri Ghera, Doron Meshulach, Ophir Eyal, Roberto Klein
