  • Publication number: 20240330663
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method includes receiving a first set of inductance data and a second set of inductance data, each representing one or more inductance measurements when a distorter is absent and when the distorter is present, respectively. The method includes training a machine learning system for compensating for distortion, in which the machine learning system is configured to generate an estimated value of distortion indicating an amount of distortion present in the electromagnetic field. The method includes receiving a set of inductance data and generating, by the trained machine learning system, the estimated value of distortion using the additional set of inductance data and measured pose data that represents position and orientation information for one or more sensors. The method includes providing the estimated value of the distortion for application to a computing device for calibrating the one or more sensors by compensating for the estimated value of the distortion.

  • Patent number: 12097653
    Abstract: A method of manufacturing a length of lined pipe inserts a radially contracted liner pipe into an outer host pipe. Injector needles are inserted through an end of the outer pipe into an annular gap between the pipes. Adhesive is injected between the pipes at locations inboard of the end of the outer pipe. After withdrawing the injectors, at least a portion of the liner pipe is expanded to close the gap and to bond the pipes together via the injected adhesive. Shims can be inserted into the gap between the pipes. A portion of the liner pipe inboard of the shims can be expanded radially while the shims constrain local radial expansion of an outboard portion of the liner pipe to maintain the gap for accommodating the injectors. Withdrawing the shims after injecting the adhesive allows radial expansion of the outboard portion to close the gap between the pipes.

  • Publication number: 20240292844
    Abstract: Antimicrobial ion exchange polymer salts are made by exchanging biologically active ionic agents onto organic ion exchange polymers. The activated polymers are useful in a wide range of antimicrobial coatings, materials, devices, agricultural treatments, and other applications, and are stable to thermal degradation and decomposition. The activated ion exchange polymer salts may be water-soluble or insoluble in water. Particle size distribution of the activated ion exchange polymer salts may be reduced and the resulting powders processed into polymers or polymer precursors using novel methods to produce stable, biologically active polymer composites, including antimicrobial polymer composites and coatings that are effective against bacteria, fungi and/or viruses. Antimicrobial polymer composites and coatings described here are potent against normal and drug resistant microbes (e.g.

  • Publication number: 20240247955
    Abstract: A magnetic tracking system is configured to determine an object pose of a tracked object in an environment of the magnetic tracking system. The tracking system includes a transmitter assembly that includes a transmitting coil configured to generate a magnetic signal indicative of an object pose of a tracked object with respect to the transmitter assembly and a marker that visually identifies a pose of the transmitter assembly with respect to a camera device. The camera device captures at least one image of the transmitter assembly. A computing device determines, based on the image, a pose for the transmitter assemblies in the image. Based on the magnetic signal and the pose associated with the transmitter assembly, the computing device determines the object pose of the tracked object in the environment.
