Abstract: Systems and methods of receiving and detecting dimensional aspects of a malleable target object are disclosed. A method of receiving dimensional aspects of a malleable target object includes forming the malleable target object from a malleable material including a magnetic component that generates a magnetic field having particular dimensional aspects that correspond to dimensional aspects of the target object, placing the malleable target object within a sensed area such that a sensor senses the particular dimensional aspects of the magnetic field and generates sensed data corresponding to the particular dimensional aspects of the magnetic field, and receiving, from a computing device, the three dimensional computer rendering of the malleable target object.

Abstract: A mobile flocculation and water treatment system includes at least one tank, preferably a series of adjoining tanks separated by weirs, and an adjacent pump house mounted on a mobile platform. At least one pump is mounted in the pump house. Fluid conduits run from the pumps to the tank. An overflow is mounted between the downstream tank and the pump house whereby fluid overflow from the tanks is directed into the pump house. The pump house provides a substantially water-tight reservoir zone to provide secondary containment. Water to be treated enters the upstream end of the tanks and is discharged from the downstream end.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for a non-coherent point tracking process that allows unknown camera motion to be estimated. One or more edges can be identified in images captured by a camera when shooting a scene. For each of the identified edge in the images, at least one tracking object can be placed arbitrarily on the edge. The positions of tracking objects in the images can then be used to estimate a camera motion. In some embodiments, two tracking objects can be placed arbitrarily on the edge to represent the edge and move along the edge arbitrarily from image to image where the edge appears. Multiple of such edges can be identified in the images and camera motions in multiple directions can be estimated based on the identified edges and combined to obtain a combined camera motion indicating the camera's movement in a 3D space when shooting the scene.
