Abstract: The techniques disclosed herein enable systems to translate three-dimensional experiences into user accessible experiences to improve accessibility for users with disabilities. Namely, the discussed system enables users with disabilities to create and personalize objects for use in the three-dimensional experience. This is accomplished by translating and grouping components from a three-dimensional space to form an intuitive and logical hierarchy. The grouped components are then organized into an accessible user interface which a user with disabilities can navigate using simplified inputs and assistive technologies. In this way, users with disabilities can be empowered to personalize their user experience and understand a three-dimensional space in a layered, well-defined format.

Abstract: An image processing pipeline including a still or video camera includes a first neural network arranged to process and provide a neural network based result for at least one of an image capture setting, sensor processing, global post processing, local post processing, and portfolio post processing. A second neural network is arranged to receive the neural network result and further provide at least one of an image capture setting, sensor processing, global post processing, local post processing, and portfolio post processing, wherein at least one of the first and second neural networks generate data on local processors supported by the still or video camera.

Abstract: A method for image capture includes determining an exposure range and setting at least one camera parameter to capture an underexposed image outside the exposure range. The underexposed image is processed using a neural network to recover image details. Image defects due to camera or object motion blur can be reduced.

Abstract: A method for image capture includes identifying a bright spot in an image. A neural network is used to recover details in bright spot area through a trained de-noising process. Post-processing of the image is conducted to match image parameters of recovered details in the bright spot area to another area of the image.

Abstract: An image processing pipeline including a still or video camera includes a first portion of an image processing system arranged to use information derived at least in part from a neural embedding. A second portion of the image processing system can be used to modify at least one of an image capture setting, sensor processing, global post processing, local post processing, and portfolio post processing, based at least in part on neural embedding information.

Abstract: The present invention is a light weight, packable ladder stand generally used for hunting. It is made of aluminum parts and can be folded, demounted or slid into a back pack configuration that weighs about thirty pounds with an aluminum ladder. The weight may be further reduced in alternate ladder configurations, such as reinforced plastic ladder. The ladder stand can be anchored to the tree by a single person from the ground location without having to climb the ladder. This allows the deer stand to be easily transported and installed by a lone hunter without climbing the ladder prior to securing the ladder to the tree.

Abstract: Apparatus for inhibiting ingress of radon into a room (20) of a building (1a, 1b), the room is at least in part below ground level, the apparatus comprises a waterproofing structure (10), the waterproofing structure defines with at least one of an adjacent wall, floor and ceiling a cavity (11) therebetween, and the cavity is sealed from the interior space of the room, and the apparatus further comprises at least one of a positive pressure pump (8) to apply positive air pressure into the interior space and suction apparatus (7) which is in communication with the cavity.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are disclosed for retrieving a cable that has become stuck or wedged during the process of installation of the cable in an underground conduit. A projectile is sent down the opposite end of the conduit by pressurized air to engage a receiver attached to the leading edge of the stuck cable. After engagement of the projectile and the receiver the two are latched together. A retrieval line attached to the projectile can then be pulled from the open end of the conduit to free the wedged cable and extract the cable from the open end of the conduit.

Abstract: A bar cutting assembly including a mounting assembly having a through hole and mounted for rotational movement. A cutter assembly is mounted on the mounting assembly such that the cutting tool rotates in conjunction with the mounting assembly. The cutter assembly is configured to progressively move axially relative to the mounting assembly upon each rotation such that the cutting assembly moves progressively across at least a portion of the through hole.

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for enzymic oxidation of a fatty acid to produce an oxidation product in the presence of water and oxygen wherein the fatty acid, water and enzyme for the oxidation are substantially uniformly distributed throughout a porous bed of solid support material in the substantial absence of a continuous liquid phase, oxygen is passed through the porous bed and the oxidation product is recovered from the porous bed. The invention is of particular value for production of methyl ketones from saturated fatty acids.
