  • Patent number: 10085014
    Abstract: Systems and methods for viewing stereoscopic television are described. The methods generate stereoscopic views from 3D content; synchronize with external view ware (e.g., shuttered glasses) to include shutter information and viewing geometry; sequence 3D content for multiple viewers at multiple perspective views; and output to a display component for viewing.

  • Patent number: 10051145
    Abstract: Disclosed inventions relates to methods and systems for encoding at least one watermark into a stereoscopic conjugate pair of images. An example method comprises the step of encoding the at least one watermark by shifting selected pixels of said pair of images in one or more directions. The one or more directions include a horizontal direction. In the disclosed embodiments, ancillary information is not required to support decoding of encoded watermarks in addition to the transmitted left and right images.

  • Patent number: 9457519
    Abstract: Systems and methods for printing a 3D object on a three-dimensional (3D) printer are described. The methods semi-automatically or automatically delineate an item in an image, receive a 3D model of the item, matches said item to said 3D model, and send the matched 3D model to a 3D printer.

  • Publication number: 20130252732
    Abstract: Systems and methods for downloading and playing a game program on a high definition television set. The game is controlled by at least one remote controller that can be the TV manufacturer provided remote controller, cell phones, tablet devices and/or the like. The remote controller can include its own one or more displays to display information related to the game, including, for example, a figure of the game, imagery and data relating to a particular point of view including a perspective view of the player operating the remote controller, and an overview of a portion of a game space surrounding the player operating the remote control. The one or more displays can be implemented as portions of a single physical display, as separate displays on the same remote controller, or on multiple remote controllers that are physically coupled together or that are in communication with each other.

  • Patent number: 6758507
    Abstract: A bumper system includes an elongated beam configured to be operatively mounted to the frame of the vehicle. Also included is a foam portion that extends along a portion of the beam and a fascia surrounding the foam portion. The fascia and the foam portion are operatively attached to the beam. The foam portion has a plurality of recesses formed therein which extend through a predetermined thickness of an inside portion of the foam portion. An integrated cylindrical cell matrix is disposed with the recesses and is configured to absorb energy resulting from impact force applied to an external portion of the bumper.
