  • Publication number: 20230409764
    Abstract: An initial building model is read in and a creator indication about the creator thereof is extracted therefrom. The creator indication is taken as a basis for loading a creator-specific object pattern library in which a respective object pattern has an assigned building element data record. The respective object pattern is correlated with objects of the initial building model by a pattern recognition method. At the same time, an object correlating with the respective object pattern is assigned the building element data record assigned to this object pattern as an annotation. The initial building model and the assigned annotations are then taken as a basis for generating and outputting an annotated digital building model.

  • Publication number: 20230088058
    Abstract: A method for the computer-aided completion of a 3D partial model—formed by points—of a partial region of an object that is captured by at least one capture device, wherein the 3D partial model can be supplemented with a hidden or missing partial region of the object situated outside the 3D partial model of the object that is to be completed, is provided. The method includes determining a geometry of the object, identifying the hidden or missing partial region of the object on the basis of the determined geometry of the object, supplementing the 3D partial model to form a complete 3D model with the identified hidden or missing partial region of the object, and c) outputting the completed 3D model at an output unit.

  • Publication number: 20230053615
    Abstract: A method and a system for generating a building information model, in particular a BIM model, in order to work on the building, such as in the case of restoration work, for example. A two-dimensional, digitized building plan of the building is read in, wherein the building plan includes building objects and building object data assigned to the building objects. A scanning unit is used to acquire three-dimensional building data that are compared with the building plan. A building object in the building plan is detected based on the comparison data and the building object data of the building object are output. The building information model is generated from the three-dimensional building data and the detected building object and the building object data thereof are integrated into the building information model. The building information model is output for working on the building.

  • Publication number: 20220410915
    Abstract: A method and an apparatus for generating sensor data for controlling an autonomous vehicle in an environment is provided, such as driverless transport vehicles in a factory for example. Sensor positions of static sensors and the sensors of autonomous vehicles are defined in a global coordinate system on the basis of an environment model, such as a BIM model for example. Sensor data is centrally generated in this global coordinate system for all sensors as a function of these sensor positions. The sensor data is then transformed into a local coordinate system of an autonomous vehicle and transferred for controlling the autonomous vehicle.

    Abstract: A method of position planning for a recording system of an imaging device with respect to a selectable field of view of a patient includes acquiring current position information of the recording system and/or the imaging device, and/or setting information of a collimator of the imaging device. A current intersection volume between an X-ray beam and the patient and/or a current field of view is determined. The current intersection volume and/or the current field of view is determined as a virtual display element. A target intersection volume and/or a target field of view is received by manipulation of the virtual display element. A target position of the recording system and/or the imaging device, and/or the setting of the collimator is determined, such that, on occupying the target position, the target intersection volume and/or the target field of view becomes the current intersection volume and/or current field of view.

  • Publication number: 20200143003
    Abstract: A method for providing an updated digital building model is provided. The method includes the following steps: a) providing a digital building model for a physical building, b) ascertaining a virtually accessible area within the digital building model, c) capturing real data obtained by a number N of data sources, where N?1, wherein the real data include data from a real accessible area within the physical building that corresponds to the virtually accessible area, and d) updating the virtually accessible area within the digital building model by the captured real data of the real accessible area to provide the updated digital building model. This means that when there is a need to evacuate a physical building, there are updated virtually accessible areas present, and hence these can be taken as a basis for providing an updated evacuation plan for evacuating people.

  • Patent number: 10091256
    Abstract: There is proposed a method and corresponding apparatuses allowing a change from a packet switched communication domain to a circuit switched communication domain. When a user equipment as a connection terminating point receives a connection initialization message with a media flow, such as audio, which cannot be delivered by the packet switched access, it sends a specific response rejecting the connection via the packet switched access to an application server for service centralization and continuity. In the application server, it is checked whether several conditions are met in order to determine whether the communication connection comprising the media flow is allowed to be changed to the circuit switched domain. If yes, the communication connection is changed from the packet switched communication domain to the circuit switched communication domain.
