Publication number: 20230184550Abstract: A system for providing 3D surveying of an environment by a mobile reality capture device. A motion state tracker is used to determine a motion pattern of the mobile reality capture device. If a determined motion pattern corresponds to a defined movement of the mobile reality capture device, the system is configured to automatically perform a derivation of an expected motion pattern of the mobile reality capture device. The movement category is associated to an environment-specific measurement movement of the mobile reality capture device, based on which an expected motion pattern of the mobile reality capture device is associated to the current movement category. By carrying out a comparison of the determined motion pattern and the expected motion pattern, feedback regarding the comparison of the determined motion pattern and the expected motion pattern is provided.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 9, 2022Publication date: June 15, 2023Applicant: HEXAGON TECHNOLOGY CENTER GMBHInventors: Nicholas BADE, Bernd REIMANN, Martin HAVNØR, Rune FJELLVANG, Iga PEPEK

Publication number: 20130169579Abstract: A user interface system for controlling an electronic device having a touch-screen. The system is configured: to detect and identify sliding contact by a user at a contact point on the touch-screen, wherein the sliding includes the contact point being moved in a first direction, and to scroll displayed content substantially in the first direction; and to detect and identify simultaneous sliding contact by the user at two contact points on the touch-screen, wherein the sliding including the contact points being moved substantially parallel to a common axis, and to cause a non-scrolling change in the displayed content in response to said detection of simultaneous sliding. The non-scrolling change might, for example, be the angle of inclination of an inclined perspective projection. The displayed content could be a map.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 12, 2011Publication date: July 4, 2013Applicant: Faster Imaging ASInventor: Martin Havnor
