  • Patent number: 11941744
    Abstract: Various methods are provided for generating motion vectors in the context of 3D computer-generated images. An example method includes generating, for each pixel of one or more objects to be rendered in a current frame, a 1-phase motion vector (MV1) and a 0-phase motion vector (MV0), each MV1 and MV0 having an associated depth value, to thereby form an MV1 texture and an MV0 texture; converting the MV1 texture to a set of MV1 blocks and converting the MV0 texture to a set of MV0 blocks; and outputting the set of MV1 blocks and the set of MV0 blocks for image processing.

  • Publication number: 20230245326
    Abstract: Various methods are provided for generating motion vectors in the context of 3D computer-generated images. An example method includes generating, based on a current frame to be rendered, a block-level motion vector with depth (MVD) texture comprising a set of block-level motion vectors each having an associated depth value, outputting the block-level MVD texture for image processing on a first channel, and outputting at least a portion of the current frame on a second channel.

  • Patent number: 6999193
    Abstract: A system generates the report to include a header section representing information, a parts section listing line items, and a footer section representing information. The system prints a first page of the report including the header section, a first parts subsection, and the footer section. The first parts subsection lists a quantity of line items that is less than or equal to a first number. The system prints any additional pages of the report to include a header subsection, subsequent parts subsection, and a footer subsection. The header subsection represents a portion of the information represented by the header section, and the footer subsection represents a portion of the information represented by the footer section. The subsequent parts subsection(s) lists a quantity of line items that is less than or equal to a second number.

  • Patent number: 6934913
    Abstract: A graphical user interface and method for data entry of a plurality of fields of information in a computer system, such as a web browser interface, using small scrolling and paging of tabular data and entry fields. A JAVA script is employed to produce a form-like user interface in which a user may enter information in fields shown in a graphical user interface (“GUI”) window display area. The GUI is provided with a NEXT button which allows the user to indicate that he or she has more data to enter than can be entered in the currently available view of the form in the GUI window display area. The script saves the currently entered data into a set of hidden fields or variables, and provides a new screen with clear fields for additional data entry. By selecting the PREVIOUS button provided by the JAVA script on the GUI, the user may cause the script to recall previously saved data from the hidden fields or variables and to redisplay them so that the user may review or edit previously entered information.

  • Patent number: 6874120
    Abstract: A method, system, and product are described for efficiently retrieving information related to data items input into a data entry form displayed on a client computer system. The client computer system is coupled to a server computer system. The server computer system includes a database of a plurality of data items. Each data item has unique information associated with it. A data entry form is displayed on the client computer system. The data entry form includes multiple fields. Input data is received in one of the fields where the input data is one of the data items. The information which is related to this data item is retrieved from the data entry form without accessing the database on the server computer system. This information is then displayed utilizing the data entry form.

    Abstract: A system for implementing a method for generating and printing a report is disclosed. The system generates the report to include a header section representing information, a parts section listing line items, and a footer section representing information. The system prints a first page of the report including the header section, a first parts subsection, and the footer section. The first parts subsection lists a quantity of line items that is less than or equal to a number that is a function of the size of the header section and the footer section. The system prints any additional pages of the report to include a header subsection, subsequent parts subsection, and a footer subsection. The header subsection represents a portion of the information represented by the header section, and the footer subsection represents a portion of the information represented by the footer section.
