  • Patent number: 11893538
    Abstract: A system and method for capturing and automated processing aerial images of structures to assess structural damage is disclosed. The system comprises a computing system used to obtain images of selected locations associated with known structures at different points in time before and after a natural disaster. The images are used to automatically create three-dimensional models that are used to detect the specific portions of a structure that may be damaged as well as the spatial extent of that damage. In addition, the imagery can be fed into a damage classifier that automatically classifies the degree of damage and generates accurate estimates of repair costs. The system and method may be deployed to quickly assess damage of structures in a disaster area and provide reports of the damage to homeowners and/or insurers.

  • Patent number: 11749500
    Abstract: A system and method for controlling an amount of outgassing caused by implanting ions into a photoresist disposed on a workpiece. The amount of outgassing is based on the species being implanted, the type of photoresist, the energy of the implant, and the amount of dose that has already been implanted, among other effects. By controlling the effective beam current, the amount of outgassing may be maintained below a predetermined threshold. By developing and utilizing the relationship between effective beam current, dose completed and rate of outgassing, the effective beam current may be controlled more precisely to implant the workpiece in the most efficient manner while remaining below the predetermined outgassing threshold.
