  • Patent number: 11859403
    Abstract: A campus for fabricating at least one pharmaceutical product has one or more customizable facilities each configured to manufacture the at least one pharmaceutical product, a media/buffer plant, and a utility building connected by a utility line to the media/buffer plant and/or the one or more customizable facilities to provide at least one first utility to the media/buffer plant and/or the one or more customizable facilities via the utility line.

  • Publication number: 20230366696
    Abstract: A 3D map comprising sensor data items depicting the environment is updated, each sensor data item having one or more associated variables such as a pose of a capture device or a position of a landmark. A graph is calculated from sensor data items. The graph comprises nodes and edges, a node representing at least one variable in the received sensor data items and an edge representing relationships between variables. The graph is partitioned into a plurality of subgraphs so as to reduce a number of variables that are shared between subgraphs. Each of the plurality of subgraphs is allocated to a respective worker node. At each worker node, updated values of the variables are computed. The process updates values of variables which are shared between subgraphs to a common value using a consensus process. The 3D map of the environment is updated according to the updated values of the variables.

  • Publication number: 20220290456
    Abstract: A campus for fabricating at least one pharmaceutical product has one or more customizable facilities each configured to manufacture the at least one pharmaceutical product, a media/buffer plant, and a utility building connected by a utility line to the media/buffer plant and/or the one or more customizable facilities to provide at least one first utility to the media/buffer plant and/or the one or more customizable facilities via the utility line.

  • Patent number: 11328182
    Abstract: A three-dimensional (3D) map inconsistency detection machine includes an input transformation layer connected to a neural network. The input transformation layer is configured to 1) receive a test 3D map including 3D map data modeling a physical entity, 2) transform the 3D map data into a set of 2D images collectively corresponding to volumes of view frustums of a plurality of virtual camera views of the physical entity modeled by the test 3D map, and 3) output the set of 2D images to the neural network. The neural network is configured to output an inconsistency value indicating a degree to which the test 3D map includes inconsistencies based on analysis of the set of 2D images collectively corresponding to the volumes of the view frustums of the plurality of virtual camera views.

  • Patent number: 5454994
    Abstract: Molded parts and fillings of rigid and flexible polyurethane foams and rigid polyurethane foams with isocyanurate structures are made from a polyol and isocyanate in the presence of an activator, water, a blowing agent and optionally other additives. Imperfections in the foam are avoided by raising the amount of activator with time during the production of the reaction mixture in such a way that the friability time occurs simultaneously throughout the contents of the mold.
