  • Patent number: 11826513
    Abstract: A filler device includes a distal housing comprising a distal inner port and a distal outer port; a proximal housing comprising a proximal inner port and a proximal outer port, the proximal housing being sealingly affixed to the distal housing to form an inspiratory pathway between the distal inner port and the proximal inner port and to form an expiratory pathway between the distal outer port and the proximal outer port that is fluidly sealed from the inspiratory pathway, the inspiratory pathway being laterally adjacent the expiratory pathway; and a first filter in the inspiratory pathway or in the expiratory pathway to filter gases flowing through the inspiratory pathway or the expiratory pathway.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10818059
    Abstract: Embodiments provide for sculpt transfer. Embodiments include identifying a source polygon of a source mesh that corresponds to a target polygon of a target mesh. Embodiments include determining a first matrix defining a first rotation that aligns a target rest state of the target polygon to a source rest state of the source polygon, determining a second matrix defining a linear transformation that aligns the source rest state to a source pose of the source polygon, wherein the linear transformation comprises rotating and stretching, determining a third matrix defining a second rotation that aligns the source pose to the target rest state, and determining a fourth matrix defining a third rotation that aligns the source rest state to the source pose. Embodiments include determining a target pose of the target polygon based on the target rest state, the first matrix, the second matrix, the third matrix, and the fourth matrix.

  • Patent number: 9286716
    Abstract: A static model is populated with graphics objects by identifying a first graphics object that is associated with the static model, creating a first plurality of graphics objects where each graphics object in the first plurality of graphics objects comprises an instance of the first graphics object, placing each graphics object in the first plurality of graphics objects into a respective first position, and simulating a motion path for each graphics object in the first plurality of graphics objects from their respective first position to a respective second position.

  • Patent number: 9251618
    Abstract: The movement of skin on an animated target, such as a character or other object, is simulated via a simulation software application. The software application creates a finite element model (FEM) comprising a plurality of finite elements based on an animated target. The software application attaches a first constraint force to a node associated with a first finite element in the plurality of finite elements. The software application attaches a second constraint force to the node. The software application detects a movement of the first finite element that results in a corresponding movement of the node. The software application determines a new position for the node based on the movement of at least one of the first finite element, the first constraint force, and the second constraint force.
