Patent number: 11423605Abstract: Embodiments of the present specification provide systems and methods to provide a 3D experience in a 2D game, while using the same underlying gaming engine. A 2D game space representing an axonometric projection is overlaid with 3D visuals, in a way that the original 2D simulation can still be used to run the game. In embodiments, a set of custom tools are used to map the 2D ground plane to a 3D ground plane. The 2D objects are then mapped into 3D objects. The 3D game environment corresponding to the original 2D game layout is created at backend by one or more individuals, using custom graphic tools. Dynamic player remap in 3D is generated in real time while the player engages with the 2D game. Therefore, while a player is playing the 2D game, a dynamic equivalent of the game in 3D is rendered.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2020Date of Patent: August 23, 2022Assignee: Activision Publishing, Inc.Inventors: Padraic Hennessy, Kevin A. Todisco, Jeffrey Allen Stewart, Jeffrey Wai Lee, Matthew James Bishop, Acy James Stapp, Juan Gustavo Salvador Samour Lopez, Alan Abram, Taylor Courtney Hadden, Nathaniel Derrick Staples

Patent number: 11377740Abstract: Methods and systems for direct lithographic pattern definition based upon electron beam induced alteration of the surface chemistry of a substrate are described. The methods involve an initial chemical treatment for global definition of a specified surface chemistry (SC). Electron beam induced surface reactions between a gaseous precursor and the surface are then used to locally alter the SC. High resolution patterning of stable, specified surface chemistries upon a substrate can thus be achieved. The defined patterns can then be utilized for selective material deposition via methods which exploit the specificity of certain SC combinations or by differences in surface energy. It is possible to perform all steps in-situ without breaking vacuum.Type: GrantFiled: December 10, 2019Date of Patent: July 5, 2022Assignee: FEI CompanyInventors: James Bishop, Toan Trong Tran, Igor Aharonovich, Charlene Lobo, Milos Toth

Patent number: 11000774Abstract: A balloon (10) extending generally axially from an opening (14) at a first end. The balloon comprises an elastomeric film (11) having a first thickness and a plurality of intersecting ribs (12) of a second, greater thickness formed on the film. The ribs are adapted so as to be angled with respect to the axis (13) of the balloon and any axis perpendicular thereto. Such a balloon has increased tear resistance, and can be manufactured with conventional dipping techniques without compromising the integrity of the film. The ribs may comprise a plurality of helices. There is also a former for making such a balloon and a method of using such a former to make such a balloon.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2013Date of Patent: May 11, 2021Assignee: Seatriever International Holdings LimitedInventors: James Bishop, Tony Rhoades
