  • Publication number: 20250101711
    Abstract: An attachment on a power machine includes an elongated hammer, an elongated tool and at least one electromagnetic coil. The hammer includes an upper end in sealed communication with a gas accumulator and an opposing lower end. The tool includes an upper end having an impact surface and an opposing lower end having a work surface. The tool is configured to be actuated when the lower end of the hammer collides with the impact surface of the tool. The coil surrounds a portion of the hammer and is configured to actuate the hammer into a compression stroke that moves the hammer in a first direction and a firing stroke that is further aided by compressed gas in the gas accumulator to move the hammer in a second opposing direction and cause the hammer to collide with the impact surface of the tool to actuate the tool.

    Abstract: A method for fusing neural radiance fields (NeRFs) is described. The method includes re-rendering a first NeRF and a second NeRF at different viewpoints to form synthesized images from the first NeRF and the second NeRF. The method also includes inferring a transformation between a re-rendered first NeRF and a re-rendered second NeRF based on the synthesized images from the first NeRF and the second NeRF. The method further includes blending the re-rendered first NeRF and the re-rendered second NeRF based on the inferred transformation to fuse the first NeRF and the second NeRF.

  • Publication number: 20240249465
    Abstract: Systems and methods for enhanced computer vision capabilities, particularly including depth synthesis, which may be applicable to autonomous vehicle operation are described. A vehicle may be equipped with a geometric scene representation (GSR) architecture for synthesizing depth views at arbitrary viewpoints. The GSR architecture synthesizes depth views enable advanced functions, including depth interpolation and depth extrapolation. The GSR architecture implements functions (i.e., depth interpolation, depth extrapolation) that are useful for various computer vision applications for autonomous vehicles, such as predicting depth maps from unseen locations. For example, a vehicle includes a processor device synthesizing depth views at multiple viewpoints, where the multiple viewpoints are from image data of a surrounding environment for the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 11711563
    Abstract: An illustrative multi-access server receives a request from a client system, the request indicating a requested rendering operation. The multi-access server also accesses input data from an asset data source. The multi-access server performs a rendering pass on the input data, the rendering pass performed in accordance with the requested rendering operation to generate a render pass output dataset. The render pass output dataset is representative of a renderable image depicting image content in a first form having limited quality or detail. The render pass output dataset is also configured for use in generating fully-rendered image data that depicts the image content in a second form having additional quality or detail beyond the limited quality or detail of the first form. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

  • Publication number: 20230113752
    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include computer-implemented systems and methods that dynamically profile behavior using trained machine-learning or artificial-intelligence processes. For example, an apparatus may obtain a data element associated with an exchange of data, and based on an application of a trained machine-learning or artificial-intelligence process to an input dataset associated with the data element, the apparatus may generate behavioral profile data that includes a range of expected deviations from an expected value of the parameter during a temporal interval. Based on a determination that the range of expected deviations fails to include the first parameter value, the apparatus may perform operations that prioritize the position of the data element within the alert queue, and transmit, to a device, a notification that includes the data element and information characterizing the prioritized position of the data element within the alert queue.

  • Patent number: 11574449
    Abstract: An illustrative image rendering system separate from and communicatively coupled to a presentation device detects a pre-modeled scene within a captured frame received from the presentation device. The pre-modeled scene is associated with a model asset accessible to the image rendering system. Based on the captured frame and the model asset, the image rendering system generates an augmentable representation of the pre-modeled scene and, based on the augmentable representation, generates an augmented version of the captured frame. The generating of the augmented version of the captured frame includes a plurality of render passes each configured to simulate a different virtualized element of a plurality of virtualized elements augmenting the pre-modeled scene within the augmented version of the captured frame. The image rendering system provides the augmented version of the captured frame to the presentation device. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11500824
    Abstract: A proxy server acts as an intermediary between a database client and a database server. The proxy server is configured with a set of user-defined rules. When a request is received from the database client, the proxy server may apply rules that modify, route, reject, log, or pass the request to the database server. Individual rules may be based on attributes of the client computer system, database server, or the request itself. In one embodiment, a rule may be used to translate a request from a format provided by the client into a format preferred by a destination database. In one embodiment, a rule may route a particular request to one of a number of databases based on the nature of the request.

  • Patent number: 11392603
    Abstract: A database proxy server provides a web service interface such as a representational state transfer (“REST”) interface to a relational database. The proxy server maps a request submitted via the web service interface to a database interface. In some examples, the web service interface is a stateless REST interface that maps particular SQL statements or subroutines to a request submitted via a particular URL. A web client is able to pass parameters with a request using either URL encoding (the GET method) or within the body of the request (the POST method). The proxy server generates one or more database commands that correspond to the request. The database commands are submitted to the relational database, and the relational database performs the database commands to fulfil the request.

  • Patent number: 11395027
    Abstract: An exemplary rendering assistance system is implemented by a multi-access edge compute (“MEC”) server. The system receives a request from a client system that is separate from the MEC server. The system parses the request to identify a requested rendering operation selected from a plurality of rendering operations supported by the system. The parsing of the request also identifies an asset pointer based upon which the system accesses input data from an asset data source. The system then performs a rendering pass on the input data in accordance with the requested rendering operation. By performing the rendering pass, the system partially renders an image that, when fully rendered, is to be presented to a user by way of a media player device. Corresponding methods and systems are also disclosed.
