Publication number: 20220277193Abstract: An annotation pipeline may be used to produce 2D and/or 3D ground truth data for deep neural networks, such as autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle perception networks. Initially, sensor data may be captured with different types of sensors and synchronized to align frames of sensor data that represent a similar world state. The aligned frames may be sampled and packaged into a sequence of annotation scenes to be annotated. An annotation project may be decomposed into modular tasks and encoded into a labeling tool, which assigns tasks to labelers and arranges the order of inputs using a wizard that steps through the tasks. During the tasks, each type of sensor data in an annotation scene may be simultaneously presented, and information may be projected across sensor modalities to provide useful contextual information. After all annotation tasks have been completed, the resulting ground truth data may be exported in any suitable format.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 26, 2021Publication date: September 1, 2022Inventors: Tilman Wekel, Joachim Pehserl, Jacob Meyer, Jake Guza, Anton Mitrokhin, Richard Whitcomb, Marco Scoffier, David Nister, Grant Monroe

Patent number: 11254032Abstract: Surface micro-texturing has been proven an effective way to reduce friction and wear for tribological applications. There is provided a low cost hot sintering method to apply micro-texturing on an advanced bearing polymer material. First, one face of the mold was micro-textured using a micro-casting method. Second, the cured Aromatic Thermosetting coPolyester (ATSP) powder was filled in the mold. Next, the filled mold was placed in a hot press for a hot sintering process. Finally, the textured bulk ATSP was cooled. The micro-textured ATSP bulk material was machined and compared with plain untextured material. The micro-textured material could effectively reduce friction at speeds lower than 2.46 m/s: 14% reduction in average.Type: GrantFiled: November 7, 2019Date of Patent: February 22, 2022Assignee: ATSP Innovations, Inc.Inventors: Pixiang Lan, Andreas A.

Publication number: 20210398457Abstract: A cable line label device includes a platform. The platform has a top end positioned opposite a bottom end. Additionally, the platform also includes a first side formed opposite a second side. The platform defines an arcuate curvature from the first side to the second side. The platform will form a flush surface with a cable when the cable line label device is placed on the cable. A first fastener is placed at a top end of the platform and a second fastener is placed at a bottom end of the platform. The first fastener and the second fastener are designed to secure the platform to the cable.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 18, 2021Publication date: December 23, 2021Inventor: Jacob Meyers

Publication number: 20210381035Abstract: Detecting different mutations in the same sample is essential, especially where the sample is limited in quantity and where high-throughput methods are desired for rapid detection of mutations. Methods routinely used in the art require separate assays for detecting different mutations or mutation types (e.g. single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) or copy number variations (CNVs)) in a sample. The present disclosure provides methods for detecting different mutations, such as SNPs and CNVs in the same sample.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 14, 2020Publication date: December 9, 2021Inventors: Emmanuel Kamberov, Yoshitaka Kimura, Julie Catherine Laliberté, Patrick Kevin Martin, Jacob Meyers

Publication number: 20200023598Abstract: This patent describes a new, simple, and low-cost method to produce aromatic thermosetting copolyester (ATSP) based polymer matrix composites. For this method, the ATSP based composites are directly produced from the blended mixtures of the ATSP oligomer powders with the composite fillers through a high temperature and high pressure curing process. In addition, the fully cured ATSP composite laminates can be bonded together to form thicker multi-material composites. The characterization showed that these ATSP based composites are fully condensed, they have excellent tribological performance (low friction and low wear rate), and they have excellent thermal stability, indicating utility in high performance bearing applications, structural materials, and as an ablative composite material.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 6, 2019Publication date: January 23, 2020Applicant: ATSP Innovations, Inc.Inventors: Pixiang Lan, Jacob Meyer

Patent number: 9741156Abstract: A materials trouble shooter is provided for use with 3D models in computer graphics. An error texture is displayed that is distinguishable from textures without errors. If a texture is missing or is applied incorrectly to the 3D model, an error texture is displayed using an error shader instead of a regular shader for the texture for which an error in loading or application has been detected.Type: GrantFiled: September 8, 2011Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: MICROSOFT TECHNOLOGY LICENSING, LLC.Inventors: Scott Marison, Jean-Pierre Duplessis, Jacob Meyer, Tito Pagán, Boris S.

Patent number: 9534138Abstract: A novel Aromatic Thermosetting Copolyester (ATSP) can be processed into highly effective wear resistant coatings by blending with polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE) and other additives. Surface treatments/coatings are key to improving wear performance and durability in a wide array of applications. The problems associated with use of liquid lubricants, hard/soft coatings are well known but only modest progress has been achieved due to lack of research on new material systems. These coatings were fabricated and tested as highly effective wear resistant coatings by blending ATSP with PTFE and other tribologically beneficial additives. The main advantages of these polymeric-based coatings are their relatively low cost and simple substrate surface conditioning (i.e., no need for expensive surface preparation before coating).Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2015Date of Patent: January 3, 2017Assignee: ATSP InnovationsInventors: James Economy, Andreas Polycarpou, Jacob Meyer
