Patent number: 11961403Abstract: A system for generating virtual lane markers of an intersection so that the virtual lane markers are visible to an operator of a vehicle at the intersection. The system includes a remote station having a transceiver, a remote memory module configured to store map data and baseline static paths of vehicles moving through the intersection, and a remote control module configured to broadcast via the transceiver a map message indicating the baseline static paths. A vehicle transceiver is configured to receive the map message. A vehicle control module is configured to generate virtual lane markers through the intersection based on the baseline static paths included with the received map message.Type: GrantFiled: July 20, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: DENSO CORPORATIONInventors: Dhyana Ramamurthy, Aaron Weinfield, Brian Gallagher, Susan Graham

Patent number: 10762702Abstract: A complex three-dimensional virtual representation of an object can be rendered. Virtual images can be captured representing a plurality of views of the complex virtual representation. The virtual images can be converted into binary masks depicting the object pixels and non-object pixels in the virtual images. The binary masks can be used to create a three-dimensional representation of the object having lower complexity than the first three-dimensional virtual representation of the object. In embodiments, the low complexity three-dimensional virtual representation of the object and the virtual images are sent to a mobile device to render a low payload representation of the object on the mobile device.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2018Date of Patent: September 1, 2020Assignee: A9.com, Inc.Inventors: Arnab Dhua, Xing Zhang, Karl Hillesland, Himanshu Arora, Nicholas Corso, Brian Graham, Jesse Chang, Jason Canada
