Abstract: Examples are disclosed for controlling virtual object placement and movement in a physical space as viewed on or through a display. An example method includes receiving a count indicating a number of occupancy transitions over time for a plurality of regions in the physical space, displaying a virtual object in an initial location selected based on the counts for each of the plurality of regions in the physical space, and determining an updated location of the virtual object in the physical space as viewed on or through the display based at least on the initial location of the virtual object and the counts for each of the plurality regions in the physical space. The example method further includes displaying the virtual object in the updated location, the virtual object being controlled to move in the physical space based at least on movements of physical objects through the physical space.

Abstract: Examples are disclosed herein that relate to classifying ambiguous data in an image. One example provides, on a computing device, a method of processing image data, the method comprising defining a contiguous area of ambiguous data in an image, determining a border surrounding the contiguous area, classifying the contiguous area as dark or far based on a characteristic of one or more pixels of the border, and for the classified contiguous area, processing one or more pixels of the contiguous area differently if the contiguous area is classified as far than if the contiguous area is classified as dark.

Abstract: An environment includes different objects that are each made up of one or more 3-dimensional volumes. These volumes can overlap one another, resulting in situations in which a particular volume that is overlapped is redundant and can be removed from the set of volumes describing the environment. A two-phase approach is applied in determining whether a particular volume is redundant. In the first phase, a candidate list of source volumes is quickly generated with a small amount of computational effort. In the second phase, the source volumes on the candidate list are analyzed to determine whether the particular volume is fully overlapped by one or a combination of the source volumes.

Abstract: A 3D voxel grid of an environment is generated, with a signed value assigned to each voxel representative of that voxel's distance from a nearest surface. For each subset of the 3D voxel grid comprising a surface, an initial surface mesh is generated. As new depth information is received, an updated surface is generated only for those subsets of the 3D voxel grid that exhibit greater than threshold change in signed values over time.

Abstract: Headgear for use with a respiratory mask is described. The headgear comprises a continuous and substantially curved elongate member extending in use below a user's nose and at least two headgear straps capable of attachment to the ends of the elongate member. A mask attachment on the elongate member is disposed to sit below or on one of said user's nose, mouth, upper lip and an inlet to the mask. The attachment is capable of receiving the mask.

Abstract: A gate valve having an expandable valve closure apparatus which is capable of expanding to seal two oppositely located parts in its valve housing. The expandable valve closure apparatus if pivotally mounted for movement on the end of a swing arm member to permit the expandable valve closure apparatus to be moved from its operative position in the vicinity of the ports in the valve housing to its inoperative or stowed position within the valve housing. Expansion of the expandable valve closure apparatus is accomplished by compressed air that is fed into a bellows that forms part of the expandable valve closure apparatus. Contraction of the expandable valve closure apparatus is accomplished by permitting the compressed air to be released from within the bellows and by springs which form part of the expandable valve closure apparatus. Air pressure is also utilized to move the expandable valve closure apparatus from its operative to its inoperative position and from its inoperative to the operative position.
