Each voxel is then determined to be either inside the object or outside of the object based on the silhouette masks and the depth data. A final mesh is then generated from the voxels that are determined to be inside the object.

As discussed herein, the 3D container may be located and oriented based on a two-dimensional marker. Moreover, some 3D containers may contain a representation of an object, which may be a 2D image of the object.

Abstract: A polymer plastic front plate comprises: a plastic substrate and a hard coating layer formed on an adhesion surface of the plastic substrate. The hard coating layer comprises: organic-inorganic hybrid UV oligomer, high Tg UV resin additive, a plurality of dispersed flaky nano inorganic material, and photo initiator, so as to form a gas barrier hard coating layer with high surface dyne value (>44 dyne) on the adhesion surface of the plastic substrate.

Abstract: A blockchain-based room inventory management system includes a property management system (PMS) module and an intermediate server system. The PMS module may be under a hotel's direct control. The intermediate server system communicates with at least one online travel agency (OTA) module and/or at least one booking engine using Ethereum-based smart contracts for confirming and processing a room reservation event. If the room reservation event is confirmed to be a successful transaction, the intermediate server system also updates the successful transaction into the PMS module and a blockchain formed by multiple node servers. The blockchain contains multiple blocks arranged in a chronological order for distinguishing successful transactions of different moments. In this way, each successful transaction is prevented from wrongly preceded by a later successful transaction. And the room inventory management system neutralizes an overbooking issue accordingly.
