  • Publication number: 20250044176
    Abstract: An inspection apparatus includes multiple sensors (including a visual sensor and one or more additional sensor(s), such as an optical gas imager and an anemometer), a real-time clock, and an inertial measurement unit, the sensors having central observation axes aligned in parallel, with the sensors and real-time clock (and optionally a location module) configured to generate data points from multiple poses of the inspection apparatus relative to an observed object. A method for operating an inspection apparatus includes obtaining data by sweeping the inspection apparatus across a region in parallel paths and circumscribing the region, time-stamping and/or attributing location coordinates to the data, correcting for positional offset of the sensors, collocating visual sensor data with data from other sensor(s), generating a point cloud and a 3D texture of the visual data, and generating a textured 3D model.

  • Publication number: 20250044912
    Abstract: Systems and methods for object-based content recommendation are described. A camera feed comprising a plurality of image frames is caused to be displayed at a client device. An object is detected within an image frame from the camera feed, the object corresponding with an object category. Responsive to detecting the object, an icon associated with the object category is selected and displayed at a position upon the camera feed. The icon corresponds with a media collection related to the object category. An input is received selecting the icon. Responsive to the input, a presentation of media items from the media collection is displayed at the client device. By detecting real-world objects and surfacing relevant virtual icons that link to associated media, an augmented reality experience is provided allowing virtual content to be overlaid and anchored to objects in reality.

  • Publication number: 20250044862
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method, a computer system and a computer program product recommend an optimal break for a user. The method includes capturing activity data for the user from an environment using a device. The method also includes obtaining prior activity data related to the user and identifying a preferred break type for the user, wherein the preferred break type for the user is associated with a prior activity of the user. In addition, the method includes determining that the user needs a break from a current activity based on the activity data. The method further includes generating a break recommendation for the user, wherein the break recommendation associates the preferred break type for the user with the current activity in the activity data. Lastly, the method includes displaying the break recommendation to the user.

  • Publication number: 20250042424
    Abstract: Provided are techniques for Augmented Reality (AR) based optimization of aggregated power consumption. Digital twin simulation is performed using vehicle data to generate a plurality of possible configurations of a first vehicle and a second vehicle with AR views and to determine associated power savings. A message request to form a group and the plurality of possible configurations with the AR views and the associated power savings are sent to the second vehicle, where the AR views and the associated power savings are projected in an AR interface at the second vehicle. From the second vehicle, a message response is received approving a possible configuration of the plurality of possible configurations to form the group. The group is formed by automatically moving the first vehicle to a first position and notifying the second vehicle to move to a second position based on the approved configuration.

  • Publication number: 20250045684
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to tracking shipments in a dynamic, mobile environment, more specifically, to tracking shipments using computer vision and navigation sensors. Container yards remain notoriously inefficient as companies waste time and resources searching for shipping containers and inventory poorly located in the container yard. Lack of timely location of assets can lead to misaligned inbound processes, incomplete assembly, missed deliveries and spoiled goods. Many companies have a large gap in visibility and management capabilities between in-transit inventory and the warehouse. Described are systems and techniques for locating and identifying shipping containers or open parking spots in a container yard using computer vision and machine learning algorithms, a camera, and position, navigation, and timing (PNT) sensors.

  • Patent number: 12219065
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for persistent login. Such persistent login may be based on linking user identity across accounts of different entities to allow each entity to maintain control over their respective sets of user data, while providing a streamlined user experience that avoids much of the repetitive need to login to different services with different login credentials (e.g., during periods of heavy use). Such persistent login may utilize a set of tokens issued and exchanged between devices of the partnering entities. Such tokens may include an access token, refresh token, and identity token. When a user associated with a first entity requests access to information secured by a second entity, such request may be associated with the access token. If the access token is determined to be expired, the refresh token may be used to refresh the access token, which may also trigger issuance of a new refresh token.
