  • Patent number: 11829703
    Abstract: This disclosure covers methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems analyze a digital design document having an initial layout of digital objects and automatically generate candidate layouts by concurrently performing operations on the digital objects within the initial layout. By iteratively performing concurrent operations, in some implementations, the methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems produce multiple candidate layouts that the systems evaluate by generating design scores. Based on a comparison of such design scores, the methods, non-transitory computer readable media, and systems generate one or more modified layouts (from among the candidate layouts) for presentation to a user.

  • Patent number: 11775263
    Abstract: A control code collaboration system automatically generates control code for an industrial project based on text discovered within the design documents. The system allows a designer to highlight text within a text-based design document representing an interlock definition, step sequence definition, tag name, or other aspects of the design description. The system then allows the user to link annotations to the highlighted text, the annotations representing interlock programming, sequence programming, or controller tag names. The system then searches the document for similarly formatted text, which are assumed to represent descriptions of similar control aspects, and infers suitable control programming from these discovered pieces of text using the previously provided annotations as a guide. In this way, the system uses text pattern recognition generates suggestions as to how to program portions of the design description based on control logic examples provided by the user.

  • Patent number: 11768581
    Abstract: Disclosed is a spatial computing system and associated methods that provide multi-modality interactions for precise and imprecise interactions with two-dimensional (“2D”) and three-dimensional (“3D”) user interfaces (“UI”) that are presented in a 3D interactive space. The multi-modality interactions are provided by a dynamic spatial pointer. The dynamic spatial pointer has a first 3D representation for navigating the 3D interactive space and selecting one of the presented UI elements. The dynamic spatial pointer converts from the first 3D representation to a different second 3D representation in response to attaching to one of the 3D UI elements, and converts to a first 2D representation in response to attaching to one of the 2D UI elements. The second 3D representation remains attached to and tracks the 3D form of the 3D UI element, and the first 2D representation remains attached to and tracks the 2D plane of the 2D UI element.
