Patent number: 12254136Abstract: Broadly speaking, embodiments of the present techniques provide haptic button assemblies in which the haptic button has a low profile while still providing a satisfying tactile response or sensation to a user. Advantageously, the haptic button assemblies may have a profile that, for example, enables the assembly to be incorporated into the free space along an edge of a portable computing device. The haptic assemblies may, for example, be arranged to move the button perpendicularly with respect to the edge of the device.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2023Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: CAMBRIDGE MECHATRONICS LIMITEDInventors: David Kuan Wei Ooi, Peter Van Wyk, Joshua Carr, Thomas James Powell, Marc-Sebastian Scholz, Andreas Flouris, Andrew Benjamin Simpson Brown, Stephen Matthew Bunting, Dominic George Webber, James Howarth

Patent number: 12254559Abstract: A voxel-based design approach enables the creating and modifying of a design model comprising a 3D grid of discrete voxels that is represented by a voxel data structure. The voxel data structure comprises voxel-level entries, each entry corresponding to a voxel based on the 3D location within the 3D grid. The voxel data structure includes a design-level entry for storing design-level performance metrics. The system updates the voxel data structure to reflect user modifications to the design model and renders a visualization of the updated design model. The system displays a per-voxel heat map for the design model for a selected performance metric based on the voxel data structure. The design system displays multiple optimized design solutions based on corresponding optimized voxel data structures. The system generates the multiple optimized design solutions based on a voxel-based optimization technique. The system also performs a voxel-based recommendation visualization technique.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2022Date of Patent: March 18, 2025Assignee: AUTODESK, INC.Inventors: Dale Zhao, David Benjamin, Rui Wang

Patent number: 12249178Abstract: The present disclosure provides systems and methods that perform face reconstruction based on an image of a face. In particular, one example system of the present disclosure combines a machine-learned image recognition model with a face modeler that uses a morphable model of a human's facial appearance. The image recognition model can be a deep learning model that generates an embedding in response to receipt of an image (e.g., an uncontrolled image of a face). The example system can further include a small, lightweight, translation model structurally positioned between the image recognition model and the face modeler. The translation model can be a machine-learned model that is trained to receive the embedding generated by the image recognition model and, in response, output a plurality of facial modeling parameter values usable by the face modeler to generate a model of the face.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2022Date of Patent: March 11, 2025Assignee: GOOGLE LLCInventors: Forrester H.

Publication number: 20250032003Abstract: Known jaw movement tracking systems generally allow for a limited tracking of the jaw movement. e.g. they are only able to track the jaw movement in two dimensions or track muscle activations without specifying direction of movements, and are thus unable to fully track the complex jaw movements. The reduced tracking ability of known devices reduces the ability to discriminate between different jaw movements based on the tracked movement. A need exists for a jaw movement tracking system that allows jaw movement tracking for discriminating between different jaw movements. The invention relates to a jaw movement tracking system. invention further relates to a method for use of the jaw movement tracking system.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 29, 2022Publication date: January 30, 2025Inventors: Gabriel Enrique SAENZ, Selina TIRTAJANA, David Benjamin JAROCH, Joost PLATTEL

Patent number: 12190022Abstract: In various embodiments, a generative design application generates and evaluates automotive designs. In operation, the generative design application computes a first set of metric values based on a set of metrics associated with design goal(s) and a first set of parameter values for a parameterized automobile model. The generative design application then performs optimization operation(s) on the first set of parameter values based on the first set of metric values to generate a second set of parameter values. Subsequently, the generative design application generates at least one design based on the second set of parameter values that is more convergent with respect to at least one of the design goals than a previously generated design. Advantageously, less time and effort are required to generate and evaluate multiple designs and then optimize those designs relative to more manual prior art approaches.Type: GrantFiled: October 18, 2022Date of Patent: January 7, 2025Assignee: AUTODESK, INC.Inventors: James Stoddart, David Benjamin, Danil Nagy, Damon Lau
