Abstract: A method is shown for providing a user interface for a 3D environment of 360° images. The method includes displaying a first 360 degree image in a sequence of 360 degree images; receiving user input to interact with one of a plurality of points of interest detected within the first 360 degree image; and processing the interaction. Each point of interest is associated with a 3D coordinate. A system and software are also disclosed.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for vectorising nodes within a plurality of 360 degree images. The method includes identifying a set of points of interest within a first 360 degree image of the plurality of 360 degree images; identifying a corresponding set of points of interest within a second 360 degree image of the plurality of 360 degree images; and calculating the 3D coordinates of the points of interest using triangulation of both sets of points of interest. A system and software are also disclosed.

Abstract: A computer-assisted design method for a second three-dimensional object from a first three dimensional object known only by its boundary surfaces, through a surface model of the B-Rep type, of the planar, cylindrical, cone, sphere, or toroid type, excluding free forms in defining the boundary of the object. The first object is broken down into a set of simple volume primitives. The first object is associated with a construction graph defined from these volume primitives and a set of geometric parameters for using these volume primitives in the specific case of that first object. The construction graph enables a compact description of all of the construction alternatives of the object through Boolean combinations of these primitives. The second object is generated as an alternative of the first object according to that construction graph, by modifying some of these parameters.

Abstract: An interaction peripheral device (1) capable of controlling an element for touching and grasping multidimensional virtual objects, including at least two interaction modules (20), each interaction module (20) being intended to be actuated by a finger of an operator and including a control sensor allowing control of displacement, according to a predetermined number of degrees of freedom, of a portion of the element for touching and grasping virtual objects by bending/extending and/or adduction/abduction displacement of the finger of the operator, and a vibrator able to emit a vibration upon touching and/or letting go of a virtual object by a portion of said element for touching and grasping virtual objects, characterized in that each interaction module (20) is attached to said peripheral device through a connection (40) in a damping material.

Abstract: Disclosed are a device for protecting a container and a container equipped therewith. The container is, in particular, a container made of composite material intended to contain a fluid under pressure, and having a cylindrical side wall and rounded ends forming a dome. The device includes a shell made of a puncture-resistant material, shaped to envelope at least the entirety of the dome of the container, delimiting a space between an interior face of the shell and an exterior face of the wall of the container, and a compressible element capable of deadening a knock or impact, disposed in the space.

Abstract: This container (1) is, in particular, a container made of composite material intended to contain a fluid under pressure, and having a cylindrical side wall (1a) and rounded ends (1b), commonly known as “domes”.

Abstract: An optical assembly comprising a microscope (1) including a binocular (3) with a pair of oculars (4, 5), an optical body (8) and an objective lens (9) and an optical path; and an endoscope (2) provided with an extension (10), an outlet ocular (16) and an optical path. A commutating modulus (12, 13, 14; 18, 19, 14) is disposed between the binocular (3) and the optical body (8) of the microscope, and the outlet ocular (16) of the endoscope (2) as to enable an observer whose eyes are located at each ocular (4, 5) of the microscope (1) to observe selectively either: (a) the optical path of the microscope (1), or (b) the optical (or electronic) path of the endoscope (2), or (c) both optical paths simultaneously to scan an object to be investigated.

Abstract: As known the product to be heated (7) is made to scroll longitudinally in the flow of an inductor (IC) with a dual frequency along a longitudinal pitch and along a transverse pitch. According to the invention this produce is made to scroll in the flow of two successive inductors with a common transverse pitch (PT) which is adjustable (31a) practically between the two longitudinal pitches of these two inductors, this transverse pitch is set to make the width of this product coincide with an integer number of transverse pitches thus obtaining the same heating on the two edge areas (7a, 7b) of this product as on the intermediate areas, and firstly the ratio of the currents supplying these two conductors is set to homogenize the heating in each transverse pitch, and secondly the total power adjusted to reach the temperature required. The invention applies to metallurgy.
