  • Publication number: 20220284304
    Abstract: This disclosure describes systems and methods for detecting multiple insertion and deletion errors in the presence of substitution errors in a signal (such as a sequenced DNA string). A convolutional code that includes two or more component convolutional codes is used for encoding. Each of the two or more component convolutional codes generates only a subset of all possible outputs of the convolutional code. The subsets of the two or more component convolutional codes are disjoint from each other. Only one of the two or more convolutional codes is active at any given time. The two or more convolutional codes together define a super code. The two or more convolutional codes are time interlaced within the super code, and the super code defines the convolutional code. A trellis that includes two or more component trellises designed based on the two or more component convolutional codes is used for decoding.

  • Patent number: 10964053
    Abstract: Computing devices and methods for estimating a pose of a user computing device are provided. In one example a 3D map comprising a plurality of 3D points representing a physical environment is obtained. Each 3D point is transformed into a 3D line that passes through the point to generate a 3D line cloud. A query image of the environment captured by a user computing device is received, the query image comprising query features that correspond to the environment. Using the 3D line cloud and the query features, a pose of the user computing device with respect to the environment is estimated.

  • Patent number: 10839556
    Abstract: A method for estimating a camera pose includes recognizing a three-dimensional (3D) map representing a physical environment, the 3D map including 3D map features defined as 3D points. An obfuscated image representation is received, the representation derived from an original unobfuscated image of the physical environment captured by a camera. The representation includes a plurality of obfuscated features, each including (i) a two-dimensional (2D) line that passes through a 2D point in the original unobfuscated image at which an image feature was detected, and (ii) a feature descriptor that describes the image feature associated with the 2D point that the 2D line of the obfuscated feature passes through. Correspondences are determined between the obfuscated features and the 3D map features of the 3D map of the physical environment. Based on the determined correspondences, a six degree of freedom pose of the camera in the physical environment is estimated.

  • Patent number: 10775978
    Abstract: A remote controllable monitoring system includes a movable sensor to monitor characteristic(s) of electrical components of equipment housed at different locations inside of an electrical enclosure. The movable sensor is movably mounted inside of the electrical enclosure. The monitoring system can also control the power supplied to the electrical components (e.g., turn power ON or OFF). A remote device interacts with the monitoring system to provide a user with remote control over the functions of the monitoring system. The remote device can include an interactive user interface with a virtual map of the electrical components. Accordingly, the user can monitor electrical components and turn OFF power to the electrical components if a problem or perspective problem is detected, via the interactive user interface of the remote device without opening or being near the electrical enclosure.

  • Patent number: 10431994
    Abstract: A self-contained EVCS accessory is electrically engaged to an electric vehicle charging stations to derive one or more operational parameters during the electric vehicle charging process. The self-contained EVCS accessory includes a display unit that can display detailed information to the users regarding the charging process. The EVCS accessory uses its own built-in display unit and power supply to display the detailed information and requires no modification to the charging station. The detailed information, which may include the charging level, charging status, elapsed time, power transferred, cost of power, and the like, may be derived directly by the EVCS accessory or it may be obtained by the accessory from a predefined source of such information. Such an arrangement provides users with much more meaningful information about the charging process compared to the LEDs or light indicators of existing charging stations.
