  • Patent number: 11733684
    Abstract: An example system includes an identification engine to determine production data associated with a three-dimensionally printed object. The system also includes an alignment engine to determine a placement of the three-dimensionally printed object relative to a display device. The system includes a rendering engine to generate an image including a visual representation of the production data. The rendering engine is to position the visual representation of the production data so that representations of data points in the production data will overlay corresponding portions of the three-dimensionally printed object upon displaying by the display device.

  • Patent number: 11455882
    Abstract: An actuation device includes a controller that interfaces with a sensing module to cause the sensing module to be non-responsive to events of a class that exceed the threshold level of detectability. The controller may be triggered by a corresponding sensor interface to switch the sensing module to be responsive to events of the class that exceed the threshold level of detectability.

  • Patent number: 11432068
    Abstract: An example system includes a microphone sensor for an electronic device and a chamber coupled to the microphone sensor. The chamber is to be selectively filled with a fluid or having a vacuum therein. When the chamber is filled with the fluid, sound waves are allowed to travel through the chamber to the microphone sensor, and fluid pressure in the chamber causes an indicator to be in a first position. When the chamber has a vacuum therein, sound waves are prevented from traveling through the chamber to the microphone sensor and the vacuum in the chamber causes the indicator to be in a second position different from the first position.

  • Publication number: 20220001596
    Abstract: A three-dimensional printing system includes a controller to instruct a fusing agent distributor to selectively apply a fusing agent to a first region of a layer of build material. The controller also determines a subset of voxels in the layer of build material to provide an opacifying agent based on an opacity value of an opacified region of an object to be generated and instructs an opacifying agent distributor to apply the opacifying agent to the determined subset of voxels.

  • Patent number: 11210832
    Abstract: In example implementations, a head mounted display (HMD) is provided. The HMD includes a first display, a sensor, an outward facing camera, a processor, and a second display. The first display is to display an image towards a user wearing the HMD. The sensor captures a gaze of the user wearing the HMD. The outward facing camera captures images of a portion of an environment within a view of the user. The processor is communicatively coupled to the sensor and the outward facing camera to generate an animation of the gaze of the user and an augmented reality image on the first display based on the images captured by the outward facing camera. The second display is communicatively coupled to the processor and the first display. The second display displays the animation of the gaze of the user away from the user.

  • Patent number: 11019442
    Abstract: Examples disclosed herein provide the ability for a computing device to configure one microphone at a time from physically colocated devices to remain active for participating in a teleconference. In one example method, the computing device determines whether a first device with a first microphone on the teleconference is physically colocated with respect to a second device with a second microphone on the teleconference. When the first and second devices are physically colocated with respect to each other, the computing device configures either the first or second microphone to remain active for participating in the teleconference while the other of the first or second microphone is to be muted.
