Patent number: 10217283Abstract: Aspects of the disclosure relate generally to providing a user with an image navigation experience. For instance, a first image of a multidimensional space is provided with an overlay line indicating a direction in which the space extends into the first image such that a second image is connected to the first image along a direction of the overlay line. User input indicating a swipe across a portion of the display is received. When swipe occurred at least partially within an interaction zone defining an area around the overlay line at which the user can interact with the space, the swipe indicates a request to display an image different from the first image. The second image is selected and provided for display based on the swipe and a connection graph connecting the first image and the second image along the direction of the overlay line.Type: GrantFiled: December 17, 2015Date of Patent: February 26, 2019Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Scott Edward Dillard, Humberto Castaneda, Su Chuin Leong, Michael Cameron Jones, Christopher Gray, Evan Hardesty Parker

Patent number: 9898857Abstract: In one aspect, computing device(s) may determine a plurality of fragments for a three-dimensional (3D) model of a geographical location. Each fragment of the plurality of fragments may correspond to a pixel of a blended image and each fragment has a fragment color from the 3D model. The one or more computing devices may determine geospatial location data for each fragment based at least in part on latitude information, longitude information, and altitude information associated with the 3D model. For each fragment of the plurality of fragments, the one or more computing devices may identify a pixel color and an image based at least in part on the geospatial location data, determine a blending ratio based on at least one of a position and an orientation of a virtual camera, and generate the blended image based on at least the blending ratio, the pixel color, and the fragment color.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2016Date of Patent: February 20, 2018Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Scott Edward Dillard, Evan Hardesty Parker, Michael Cameron Jones

Patent number: 8714730Abstract: A printing process identifies conditions for operating an image receiving member to transfer a plurality of ink images from the image receiving member to a plurality of media sheets between applications of release agent to the image receiving member. The printing process transfers a first ink image from the image receiving member to a first media sheet, identifies a size of a second ink image, and forms the second ink image entirely within a portion of the surface of the image receiving member that carried the first ink image. The printing process enables printing with acceptable quality while reducing the consumption of release agent and wear on components in the printer.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2011Date of Patent: May 6, 2014Assignee: Xerox CorporationInventors: Michael Cameron Gordon, Joseph B.
