Abstract: A method for managing logical-to-physical (L2P) mappings in a memory subsystem is described. The method includes updating, by a set of processing units, an L2P table based on a set of journal pages from the non-volatile memory. The L2P table prior to the update includes a first set of entries from a table snapshot and the table includes a second set of entries following the update from a set of journal pages. Each L2P table entry (1) corresponds to a logical address in a set of logical addresses and (2) includes a physical address of a set of memory components. The set of logical addresses are categorized into zones and each processing unit is assigned to a separate zone such that each processing unit updates the first set of entries based on an assigned zone of a corresponding logical address and each zone includes at least two non-contiguous logical addresses.

Abstract: An unobstructed image portion of a captured image from a first camera of a camera pair, e.g., a stereoscopic camera pair including fisheye lenses, is combined with a scaled extracted image portion generated from a captured image from a second camera in the camera pair. An unobstructed image portion of a captured image from the second camera of the camera pair is combined with a scaled extracted image portion generated from a captured image from the first camera in the camera pair. As part of the combining obstructed image portions which were obstructed by part of the adjacent camera are replaced in some embodiments. In some embodiments, the obstructions are due to adjacent fisheye lens. In various embodiments fish eye lenses which have been cut to be flat on one side are used for the left and right cameras with the spacing between the optical axis approximating the spacing between the optical axis of a human person's eyes.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for aligning components of camera assemblies of one or more camera pairs, e.g., a stereoscopic camera pairs, are described. A camera calibration tool referred to as a camera bra is used. Each dome of the camera bra includes a test pattern, e.g., grid of points, with the domes being aligned and spaced apart by a predetermined amount. The bra is placed over the cameras of a camera pair, the grids are detected and displayed. The camera component positions are adjusted until the displayed images show the grids as being properly aligned. Because the grids on the calibration tool are properly aligned as a result of the manufacturing of the calibration tool, when the images are brought into alignment the cameras will be properly spaced and aligned at which point the calibration tool can be removed and the stereoscopic camera pair used to capture images of a scene.

Abstract: The invention relates to recombinant microorganisms and methods for producing steviol glycosides, glycosides of steviol precursors, and steviol glycoside precursors.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for packing images into a frame and/or including additional content and/or graphics are described. A composite image is generated including at least one image in addition to another image and/or additional image content. A playback device received an encoded frame including a captured image of a portion of and environment and the additional image content. The additional image content is combined with or used to replace a portion of the image of the environment during rendering. Alpha value mask information is communicated to the playback device to provide alpha values for use in image combining. Alpha values are communicated as pixel values in the encoded frame or as additional information. One or more mesh models and/or information on how to map image content to the one or more mesh models is communicated to the playback device for use in rendering image content recovered from a frame.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for checking the alignment and/or spacing of cameras of a camera pair, e.g., stereoscopic camera pair, are described. Images of a calibration target are captured by first and second cameras of a camera pair being calibrated The captured first and second images, which may correspond to all or a portion of the calibration target, are combined in accordance with the invention to generate a calibration image which is then displayed to an operator of the calibration apparatus including the calibration target. Given the position of at least some different color grid elements in the calibration target, when proper camera spacing and optical axis alignment of the cameras is achieved, the overlaid image will include an overlay of two different color image grid elements resulting in the generated calibration image including grid elements of a different color than that of the overlaid grid elements.

Abstract: An insert, a pipe assembly, and a method for forming a pipe assembly are disclosed. The pipe assembly includes a hollow body and an insert bonded to the hollow body. The insert spans a knit line defined in the hollow body. The insert is formed from a fiber reinforced polymer material. The fibers are generally anisotropic, and preferably unidirectional, and the insert is oriented such that the fibers extend at an angle to the knit line and thus span the knit line. Preferably, the fibers extend perpendicularly to the knit line. The use of an insert having such an orientation reinforces the hollow body, particularly at the knit line. Thus, the use of such an insert bonded to a hollow body according to the present disclosure produces a pipe assembly having increased pressure ratings.
