Publication number: 20240094029Abstract: Techniques for representing a scene or map based on statistical data of captured environmental data are discussed herein. In some cases, the data (such as covariance data, mean data, or the like) may be stored as a multi-resolution voxel space that includes a plurality of semantic layers. In some instances, individual semantic layers may include multiple voxel grids having differing resolutions. Multiple multi-resolution voxel spaces may be merged or aligned to generate combined scenes based on detected voxel covariances at one or more resolutions.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 31, 2022Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Hirotatsu Armstrong, Patrick Blaes, Michael Carsten Bosse, Jeffrey Eric Tolliver

Patent number: 11707984Abstract: A circuit device 100 includes an error detection circuit 110 and a processing circuit 120. The error detection circuit 110 obtains a glare index value, which is an index value indicating glare of a head-up display, based on image data IMD for head-up display. The error detection circuit 110 determines whether or not a glare index value has exceeded a first threshold value, and when the glare index value exceeds the first threshold value, detects occurrence of a first glare error. When occurrence of a first glare error is detected, the processing circuit 120 performs processing corresponding to the first glare error.Type: GrantFiled: December 19, 2019Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: SEIKO EPSON CORPORATIONInventors: Kumar Anandabairavasamy Anand, Wittmeir Manfred, Jeffrey Eric, Tetsuo Kawamoto, Yasutoshi Akiba

Publication number: 20220392380Abstract: A circuit device includes a storing section configured to store a rendering image and a warp processing section. The warp processing section includes a coordinate converting section, a coordinate-address converting section, and an output section. The coordinate converting section converts, with coordinate conversion based on warp parameters and rotation correction parameters, an output coordinate, which is a coordinate on a display image, into an input coordinate, which is a coordinate on the rendering image. The coordinate-address converting section converts the input coordinate into a read address of the storing section. The output section reads out pixel data of the rendering image from the read address of the storing section and outputs, based on the read-out pixel data, pixel data in the output coordinate of the display image.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 1, 2022Publication date: December 8, 2022Inventors: Yasutoshi AKIBA, Jeffrey ERIC
