Abstract: A method of recognizing an object includes comparing a three-dimensional point cloud of the object to a three-dimensional candidate from a dataset to determine a first confidence score, and comparing color metrics of a two-dimensional image of the object to a two-dimensional candidate from the dataset to determine a second confidence score. The point cloud includes a color appearance calibrated from a white balance image, and the color appearance of the object is compared with the three-dimensional candidate. The first or second confidence score is selected to determine which of the three-dimensional candidate or the two-dimensional candidate corresponds with the object.

Abstract: A deep learning method employs a neural network having three sub-nets to classify and retrieve the most similar 3D model of an object, given a rough 3D model or scanned images. The most similar 3D model is present in a database and can be retrieved to use directly or as a reference to redesign the 3D model. The three sub-nets of the neural network include one dealing with object images and the other two dealing with voxel representations. Majority vote is used instead of view pooling to classify the object. A feature map and a list of top N most similar well-designed 3D models are also provided.

Abstract: An assembly for receiving telemetry signals from downhole equipment is located at a top end of a drill string above a drill rig floor. The assembly may be configured to receive multiple types of telemetry signals, for example, two or more of electromagnetic telemetry, mud pulse telemetry and drill string acoustic telemetry signals. The assembly may comprise a cap comprising a coupling and an end separated by an electrically-insulating gap region. The end of the cap may be connected to a grounding system for the drill rig.

Abstract: A range of apparatus and methods for providing local and long range data telemetry within a wellbore is described. These apparatus and methods may be combined in a wide variety of ways. In some embodiments data is transmitted across a gap in a drill string using signals of a higher frequency for which an electrical impedance of the gap or of a filter connected across the gap is low. Low-frequency EM telemetry signals may be applied across the gap. The gap and any filter connected across the gap present a high impedance to the low-frequency EM telemetry signals. The described technology may be applied for transferring sensor readings between downhole electrical packages. In some embodiments sensors are electrically connected across electrically insulating gaps in the drill string.

Abstract: A downhole system provides a data interface to a first downhole tool such as a steerable rotary tool. The data interface uses a close proximity data connection such as a connection between inductive loops or coils or a direct wired or optical connection. The interface provides data to a second downhole tool in a drill string section adjacent to the first downhole tool. In some embodiments data is passed to a third downhole tool that includes a telemetry transmitter. The third downhole tool may comprise a MWD (measurement while drilling) tool.

Abstract: A device includes a first integrated circuit containing a photodiode and a first metal interconnect structure connected to the photodiode, and a second integrated circuit containing a transistor and a second metal interconnect structure connected to the transistor. The first integrated circuit and the second integrated circuit are connected together through the first metal interconnect structure and the second metal interconnect structure. Since no transistor is present around the photodiode, the photodiode has an increased photosensitive area and an improved fill factor, resulting in an increase of the quantum efficiency, higher integration and lower consumption of the image sensor.
