  • Publication number: 20190268723
    Abstract: A system for notification of entry of a boundary including a database that stores data. The data includes a plurality of boundaries each surrounding a different geographic region. A mobile device includes a processor, a memory, a user interface, a communications interface, a geolocator, and a notification module. The processor of the mobile device receives the data from the database via the communications interface, determines if the mobile device is within one of the plurality of boundaries via the geolocator, and activates the notification module if the mobile device is within one of the plurality of boundaries.

  • Publication number: 20180214071
    Abstract: Dimensions of a surface feature are determined by capturing an image of the surface feature and determining a scale associated with the image. Structured light may be projected onto the surface, such that the position of structured light in the captured image allows determination of scale. A non-planar surface may be unwrapped. The surface may alternatively be projected into a plane to correct for the scene being tilted with respect to the camera axis. A border of the surface feature may be input manually by a user. An apparatus and system for implementing the method are also disclosed.
