Abstract: Determining a location of an entity comprises: receiving a query comprising a 2D image depicting an environment of the entity; searching for a match between the query and a 3D map of the environment. The 3D map comprising a 3D point cloud, the match indicating the location of the entity in the environment. Searching for the match comprises: extracting descriptors from the 2D image referred to as image descriptors; extracting descriptors from the 3D point cloud referred to as point cloud descriptors; correlating the image descriptors with the point cloud descriptors to produce correspondences, wherein a correspondence is an image descriptor corresponding to a point cloud descriptor; estimating, using the correspondences, the location of the entity.

Abstract: The invention relates to novel biosourced polyamide derivatives able to form gels, the method for preparing same, the gels formed from these gelling polyamides, as well the compositions containing them, in particular cosmetic compositions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a heat-sealable structure comprising an aluminum foil and a heat-seal lacquer, said structure exhibiting a seal strength, according to ASTM F2824, of more than 23 N/15 mm when heat-sealed to another heat-sealable structure comprising an aluminum foil and the same heat-seal lacquer, the heat-seal lacquers of both structures contacting each other for heat sealing, said seal lacquer comprising a copolymer blend comprising: —from 30 to 80% by weight, preferably 40 to 70% by weight, more preferably from 50 to 60% by weight of a copolymer A based on (meth)acrylate ester (co)polymers, olefin (co)polymers and block or grafted copolymers comprising (met)acrylate ester sequences and olefin sequences, —from 20 to 70% by weight, preferably 30 to 60% by weight, more preferably from 40 to 50% by weight of a copolymer (B) based on vinyl halides, vinyl esters of carboxylic acids and ethylenically unsaturated (poly)carboxylic acids.

Abstract: Systems and methods for displaying a control scheme according to various aspects of the present technology include a generating and displaying a control scheme over interactive content displayed on a personal display headset. In one embodiment, the control scheme is superimposed over the interactive content displayed on a headset at the same time the control scheme is active on a secondary control device such as a tablet or smartphone. The secondary control device allows the user to interact with the interactive content as part of a virtual or augmented reality experience. Inputs made to the secondary control device are shown on the superimposed control scheme to allow the user to see if they are touching the secondary control device in the proper location to interact with the interactive content.
