Publication number: 20180317514Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for producing a coffee extract which comprises use of an enzyme having mannanase activity. The invention also relates to polypeptides having endo-beta-1,4-mannanase activity and polynucleotides encoding the polypeptides. The invention also relates to nucleic acid constructs, vectors, and host cells comprising the polynucleotides as well as methods of producing and using the polypeptides.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 24, 2016Publication date: November 8, 2018Applicant: Novozymes A/SInventors: Jens Magnus Eklof, Louise Rasmussen, Gitte Budolfsen Lynglev, Nikolaj Spodsberg, Kristian Bertel Roemer Krogh

Patent number: 9558578Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media, for animation. An animation application creates an animation environment. An input device receives input from a user to the animation application. An output device displays output to the user of the animation application. The animation application is configured to have a mode of operation that includes displaying, through the output device, a 3D animation view of the animation environment overlain by a 2D edit view of the animation environment.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2013Date of Patent: January 31, 2017Assignee: LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD.Inventors: Adam Schnitzer, Max S-Han Chen, Domenico Porcino, Louise Rasmussen, Greg James, Jonathan Stone, Steve Sullivan, Kent Oberheu

Patent number: 9508176Abstract: A 3D animation environment that includes an animation object is generated. A movement speed is assigned to object the 3D animation environment. An animation path containing at least first and second waypoints is generated. An animation sequence is generated by identifying a first section of the animation path connected to the first waypoint. A first animation of the animation object is generated in which the animation object moves along the first section of the path at the movement speed. A spatial gap in the animation path is identified between the first and second waypoints. A second animation of the animation object is generated in which the animation object moves, by keyframe animation, from the first waypoint to the second waypoint. A third animation of the animation object is generated in which the animation object moves along at least a second portion of the path at the movement speed.Type: GrantFiled: November 16, 2012Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY LTD.Inventors: George Lucas, Domenico Porcino, Adam Schnitzer, Louise Rasmussen, Kent Oberheu

Patent number: 9335902Abstract: A first input is received in an animation creation application having a user interface showing a virtual-space area for first objects, and a timeline area for second objects representing events. To generate the first input, a user presses and holds an input control while a cursor is over one of the first or second objects. It is determined whether the input control is held for at least a predefined duration. If so, a copy of the object is assigned to the cursor, and the copy is subsequently pasted at another location in the user interface upon the input control ceasing to be held after the cursor is moved to the other location. If the input control does not remain held for at least the predefined duration the copy of the object is not assigned to the cursor.Type: GrantFiled: May 16, 2013Date of Patent: May 10, 2016Assignee: LUCASFILM ENTERTAINMENT COMPANY, LTD.Inventors: Joshua Goldenberg, Louise Rasmussen, Adam Schnitzer, Domenico Porcino, Lucas A.

Patent number: 9030477Abstract: A system includes a computing device that includes a memory configured to store instructions. The computing device also includes a processor configured to execute the instructions to perform a method that includes defining at least one of a location in a virtual scene and a time represented in a timeline as being associated with a performance of an animated character. The method also includes aggregating data that represents actions of the animation character for at least one of the defined location and the defined time. The method also includes presenting a user interface that includes a representation of the aggregated actions. The representation is editable to adjust at least one action included in the aggregation.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2011Date of Patent: May 12, 2015Assignee: Lucasfilm Entertainment Company Ltd.Inventors: Adam Schnitzer, Joshua Goldenberg, Kent Oberheu, Domenico Porcino, Louise Rasmussen

Patent number: 9003287Abstract: Interaction between a 3D animation and a corresponding script includes: displaying a user interface that includes at least a 3D animation area and a script area, the 3D animation area including (i) a 3D view area for creating and playing a 3D animation and (ii) a timeline area for visualizing actions by one or more 3D animation characters, the script area comprising one or more objects representing lines from a script having one or more script characters; receiving a first user input corresponding to a user selecting at least one of the objects from the script area for assignment to a location in the timeline area; generating a timeline object at the location in response to the first user input, the timeline object corresponding to the selected object; and associating audio data with the generated timeline object, the audio data corresponding to a line represented by the selected object.Type: GrantFiled: November 18, 2011Date of Patent: April 7, 2015Assignee: Lucasfilm Entertainment Company Ltd.Inventors: Joshua Goldenberg, Louise Rasmussen, Adam Schnitzer, Domenico Porcino, George Lucas, Brett A.
