Publication number: 20240104872Abstract: Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including a portal for viewing a stereo item (e.g., a photo or video) positioned a distance behind the portal. One or more visual effects are provided based on texture of one or more portions of the stereo item, e.g., texture at cutoff or visible edges of the stereo item. The effects change the appearance of the stereo item or the portal itself, e.g., improving visual comfort issues by minimizing window violations or otherwise enhancing the viewing experience. Various implementations provide a view of a 3D environment including an immersive view of a stereo item without using portal. Such a visual effect may be provided to partially obscure the surrounding 3D environment.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Bryce L. Schmidtchen, Bryan Cline, Charles O. Goddard, Michael I. Weinstein, Tsao-Wei Huang, Tobias Rick, Vedant Saran, Alexander Menzies, Alexandre Da Veiga

Patent number: 11041271Abstract: Vibration sensors can be used in paper making systems and methods to determine various aspects of the paper making operation. Vibration sensors, for example, positioned on cleaning blades configured to clean various deposits off of rollers in a paper making system can output vibration data that can be indicative of the vibration of the blade. The vibration data can be analyzed in order to characterize the cause of the vibration and/or the location of the vibration within a paper making system. If the vibration data satisfies a predetermined condition, a corrective action can be initiated. Different corrective actions can be initiated based on the characterized cause and/or location of the vibration in order to effectively improve the operation of the system while minimizing costly system shut downs and major maintenance.Type: GrantFiled: October 24, 2018Date of Patent: June 22, 2021Assignee: Ecolab USA Inc.Inventors: Dominic Luneau, Fouad M. Moukannas, Gary S. Furman, David I. Weinstein, William Von Drasek

Patent number: 8306895Abstract: A system and method for confirmation of hedge fund information, comprising performing an asset/liability confirmation by comparing corroborating data received from a third party independent of the hedge fund to a list of hedge fund assets/liabilities to identify third party confirmed assets/liabilities that correspond to the corroborating data. A price input confirmation is performed to identify a fund-provided value of an asset/liability as a confirmed value when it substantially corresponds a third party value of each asset/liability. Assigning a unique identifier to a confirmation instance and associated the unique identifier to a report identifying the proportion of the fund's NAV attributable to the total value of third party confirmed assets/liabilities and attributable to the total confirmed value of assets/liabilities. A second report identifying generated risk and/or performance data includes the unique identifier to certify that the asset/liability and price input confirmations have been performed.Type: GrantFiled: November 23, 2009Date of Patent: November 6, 2012Assignee: Morgan Stanley Fund Services, Inc.Inventors: Seth I.
