  • Material interlocking
    Patent number: 12049037
    Abstract: A method comprises using a three-dimensional additive manufacturing process to produce an interlocking volume, wherein using the additive manufacturing process includes depositing successive layers, each of which includes a first material distributed according to a first interlocking material pattern and a second material distributed according to a second interlocking material pattern, said second material differing from said first material.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: October 14, 2021
    Date of Patent: July 30, 2024
    Assignee: Inkbit, LLC
    Inventors: Ari Berman, Wojciech Matusik

  • Methods and apparatus for back-projection and forward-projection
    Publication number: 20050152590
    Abstract: The invention provides improvements in reconstructive imaging of the type in which a volume is reconstructed from a series of measured projection images (or other two-dimensional representations) generated by projection of a point x-ray source (or other radiation source), positioned at a distinct focus, through the volume to a plane at which the respective projection image is acquired (“detector plane”). In one aspect, the improvements are with respect to back-projecting a two-dimensional representation lying in the detector plane (representing, for example, a difference between an originally-acquired measured projection image and a subsequently-generated estimate thereof) to generate three-dimensional representation (which can be used, for example, to update an estimate of the volume).
