  • Publication number: 20230308195
    Abstract: A system and method for modifying symbology displayed on a head worn display (HWD) based on a quality-of-service value is disclosed. The system includes a head worn display configured to display symbology, a tracking camera, a controller, and a tracking processing unit configured to receive inputs form the tracking camera and transmit a signal quality value to the controller. The controller includes processors and memory with instructions that when executed by the processors, cause the processors to display the symbology on the display, determine a quality-of-service value based on at least the signal quality value, and modify at least one symbol of the symbology based on the quality-of-service value from a default symbol to a degraded symbol if the quality-of-service value changes from a high-quality value to a low-quality value. The system may also receive sensor signals from other sensors, and use the sensor signal to determine the quality-of-service value.

  • Publication number: 20230294350
    Abstract: The present invention pertains to the embossing of a pattern using resin formulations to create a stamp to continue the embossing pattern. Since the pattern is repeated, you can peel the stamp from the embossing over an integer of number patterns and put it back in the embossing in a different location. This realization enables a novel approach to seamlessly replicating a pattern either on a flat area or in a seamless continuous cylinder. The stitching and mastering manufacturing processes and techniques of the present invention present a solution to an industry challenge. The stitching allows for the verticalization of all important manufacturing steps, eliminating the need to rely on a third party for mastering.

  • Patent number: 11762828
    Abstract: A method includes, for each key of a plurality of keys, identifying from a set of buckets a first bucket for the key based on a first hash function, and identifying from the set of buckets a second bucket for the key based on a second hash function. An entry for the key is stored in a bucket selected from one of the first bucket and the second bucket. The entry is inserted in a sequence of entries in a memory block. A position of the entry in the sequence of entries corresponds to the selected bucket. For each bucket in the set of buckets, an indication of a number of entries in the bucket is recorded.

  • Patent number: 11756122
    Abstract: A system and method are provided that, among other things, can reduce the burden on receiving computers, increase data throughput, reduce system failure, and provide components of a scalable and flexible network architecture. Specifically, the system and method provide a multichannel-multicast network environment for use in dynamically assigning data to channels. This configuration is particularly useful in a trading network environment, as it effectively performs channel reassignments in a way not to disturb the receipt of the underlying data. While the example embodiments described herein pertain to electronic trading, the principles of the present invention may be equally applied in other environments where the advantages presented herein are beneficial.

  • Patent number: 11740634
    Abstract: A method of operating a mobile robot includes generating a segmentation map defining respective regions of a surface based on occupancy data that is collected by a mobile robot responsive to navigation of the surface, identifying sub-regions of at least one of the respective regions as non-clutter and clutter areas, and computing a coverage pattern based on identification of the sub-regions. The coverage pattern indicates a sequence for navigation of the non-clutter and clutter areas, and is provided to the mobile robot. Responsive to the coverage pattern, the mobile robot sequentially navigates the non-clutter and clutter areas of the at least one of the respective regions of the surface in the sequence indicated by the coverage pattern. Related methods, computing devices, and computer program products are also discussed.

  • Patent number: 11736119
    Abstract: A data processing platform, method, and program product perform compression and decompression of a set of data items. Suffix data and a prefix are selected for each respective data item in the set of data items based on data content of the respective data item. The set of data items is sorted based on the prefixes. The prefixes are encoded by querying multiple encoding tables to create a code word containing compressed information representing values of all prefixes for the set of data items. The code word and suffix data for each of the data items are stored in memory. The code word is decompressed to recover the prefixes. The recovered prefixes are paired with their respective suffix data.
