Publication number: 20240152245Abstract: A computer system displays a first object that includes at least a first portion of the first object and a second portion of the first object and detects a first gaze input that meets first criteria, wherein the first criteria require that the first gaze input is directed to the first portion of the first object in order for the first criteria to be met. In response, the computer system displays a first control element that corresponds to a first operation associated with the first object, wherein the first control element was not displayed prior to detecting that the first gaze input met the first criteria, and detects a first user input directed to the first control element. In response to detecting the first user input directed to the first control element, the computer system performs the first operation with respect to the first object.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 21, 2023Publication date: May 9, 2024Inventors: Lee S.

Patent number: 11731357Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure relate to a container. The container has a chamber for storing build material for a three-dimensional printing system. The container comprises an opening coaxial with the chamber for coupling to the three-dimensional printing system. The container is configured such that rotation of the chamber in a first direction conveys build material in the chamber to the three-dimensional printing system and rotation of the chamber in a second direction conveys the build material away from the three-dimensional printing system.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2017Date of Patent: August 22, 2023Assignee: HEWLETT-PACKARD DEVELOPMENT COMPANY, L.P.Inventors: Brad Benson, Kevin E. Swier, James R. Owen, Wesley R. Schalk

Patent number: 11267202Abstract: According to one aspect, there is provided a method of adding build material to a rotatable 3D printing build material container having an internal build material storage reservoir, the method comprising: providing a supply of build material to an input port of the container; rotating the container about its rotation axis at a first speed sufficient to cause build material within the container to be centrifugally forced against the outside of the internal storage reservoir.Type: GrantFiled: October 5, 2017Date of Patent: March 8, 2022Assignee: Hewlett-Packard Development Company, L.P.Inventors: Kevin E. Swier, James R. Owen, Brad Benson
