Patent number: 11927455Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods for an augmented reality transportation system. For example, the systems and methods described herein present an augmented reality environment for a driver or a passenger including augmented reality elements to mark specific locations within a display of real-world surroundings. Additionally, the systems and methods described herein analyze historical information to determine placements for augmented reality elements. The systems and methods also enable a user to share an augmented reality or virtual reality environment with another user.Type: GrantFiled: September 1, 2021Date of Patent: March 12, 2024Assignee: Lyft, Inc.Inventors: Ethan Duncan Eyler, Martin Conte MacDonell, Taggart Matthiesen, Jesse Jones McMillin, Robert Earl Rasmusson, Jr., Mark David Teater

Patent number: 9925710Abstract: The pouch has a sealable mouth section, a side wall, and a sealed base. The material in the region of the side wall is oriented biaxially via blow molding of an injection-molded preform, and has an average wall thickness of at most 0.2 mm. The shape of the sealed base is intended to permit the article to stand upright without support.Type: GrantFiled: July 8, 2008Date of Patent: March 27, 2018Assignee: KHS CORPOPLAST GMBHInventors: Martin Matthiesen, Uwe Dreher, Matthias Gernhuber

Patent number: 9545748Abstract: The method and the device are used for blow-molding containers. A preform made of a thermoplastic material is first subject to a thermal conditioning operation along a transport path in the region of a heating section. Thereafter, the preform is formed into the container inside a blowing mold by applying blowing pressure. While the preform is shaped into the container, at least one parameter (49, 50) characterizing the shaping is measured and evaluated by a control unit. Depending on said evaluation, at least one controlled variable (48, 46) influencing the shaping operation inside a closed loop is varied in order to match the measured parameter to an associated target value. In this way, it becomes possible to subject the container parison developing during the blow-molding operation to a predetermined defined development.Type: GrantFiled: February 2, 2009Date of Patent: January 17, 2017Assignee: KHS CORPOPLAST GMBHInventors: Karl-Heinz Balkau, Martin Matthiesen, Frank Haesendonckx

Publication number: 20120267832Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for blow-molding containers. A preform produced of a thermoplastic material is subjected to a thermal conditioning process along a transport path in the region of a heating section. The preform is then shaped in a blow mold by the effect of a blowing pressure to give the container. The preform is subjected to a temperature profile at least along part of its transport path in the region of the heating section, said temperature profile being generated by at least one tubular radiation heater. The temperature profile extends in a longitudinal direction of the preform. The radiation emitted by the radiation heater is emitted in different spatial directions with different intensities by a heating device positioning the radiation heater.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 14, 2010Publication date: October 25, 2012Applicant: KHS CORPOPLAST GMBHInventors: Tara Zocher, Karl-Heinz Balkau, Jens-Peter Rasch, Deniz Ulutürk, Martin Matthiesen, Frank Lewin, Michael Linke

Publication number: 20060157891Abstract: A method for making an individual PPTC electrical circuit protection device includes steps of inserting two surface-treated conductive electrodes into a mold; injecting plastic-phase PPTC material into a space between the two electrodes; closing the mold and thereby applying pressure to the electrodes and PPTC material to form a completed device; and removing the completed device from the mold. Mold temperature is controlled in a range of between 80 and 125° C.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 11, 2006Publication date: July 20, 2006Applicant: Tyco Electronics CorporationInventors: Joseph Hardy, Erling Hansen, Martin Matthiesen, Bruce Sparks, Anthony Vranicar
