  • Depth map estimation with stereo images
    Patent number: 10466714
    Abstract: Vehicles can be equipped to operate in both autonomous and occupant piloted mode. While operating in either mode, an array of sensors can be used to pilot the vehicle including stereo cameras and 3D sensors. Stereo camera and 3D sensors can also be employed to assist occupants while piloting vehicles. Deep convolutional neural networks can be employed to determine estimated depth maps from stereo images of scenes in real time for vehicles in autonomous and occupant piloted modes.

  • Document processing services
    Publication number: 20080300898
    Abstract: A document processing device is provided. A device service is configured to generate information concerning a document processed by the document processing device. A client interface is included in the device service and is configured to perform at least one of (a) publishing an event to a plurality of clients based on at least one of a status of the document processing device and the information and (b) providing an instruction to the document processing device based on a message from one of the plurality of clients. One or more application services are in selective communication with the device service and at least one of the clients.

  • Monoclonal antibodies and hybridomas specific for green-oat phytochrome
    Patent number: 5248607
    Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method to purify green-plant phytochrome; the production of hybridoma cell lines secreting monoclonal antibodies specific for green-plant phytochrome and that do not cross-react significantly with etiolated-plant phytochrome; a partial amino acid sequence for an immunoaffinity-purified green-plant phytochrome; oligonucleotide probes for cloning green-phytochrome genes from plant genomic DNA and cDNA libraries; and cloned green-phytochrome genes and cDNA.
