  • Patent number: 10890982
    Abstract: A system and method for a hybrid multimode input device includes a multimode input device capable of a two-dimensional (2D) mode of operation and a three-dimensional (3D) mode of operation. The device includes a two-dimensional (2D) position sensor, a three-dimensional (3D) position sensor, and a processor. The processor is configured to enter a 3D input mode when the processor detects that the input device is in a first orientation, and enter a 2D input mode when the processor detects that the input device is in a second orientation. The 2D input mode is configured to provide 2D position data to a connected computer system, and wherein the 3D input mode is configured to provide 3D position data to the connected computer system.

  • Publication number: 20200324350
    Abstract: A milling cutter includes a milling drum having a body with a first end, a second end, an outer surface extending around a circumference of the body between the first and second ends, and a plurality of slots formed in the outer surface. The plurality of slots arranged in a staggered row between the first end and the second end of the body. The milling cutter also includes a plurality of cutting insert removably secured to the body. Each cutting insert is positioned at least partially within one of the plurality of slots and includes a cutting profile defined by rounded peaks and pointed valleys to cut a tooth form into a saw blade. The plurality of cutting inserts are staggered such that the plurality of cutting inserts are circumferentially offset from each other along a longitudinal axis of the milling drum.

  • Patent number: 10769438
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a computing system may access one or more frames of media content with each frame corresponding to at least part of an image. The computing system may automatically detect at least one object in at least one of the one or more frames. The computing system may automatically identify the at least one object. For each of the identified objects, the computing system may automatically determine an annotation corresponding to that object and each annotation may include one or more graphical elements. For each annotation, the computing system may automatically associate that annotation for display with its corresponding object.
