Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that use event camera data to track deformable objects such as faces, hands, and other body parts. One exemplary implementation involves receiving a stream of pixel events output by an event camera. The device tracks the deformable object using this data. Various implementations do so by generating a dynamic representation of the object and modifying the dynamic representation of the object in response to obtaining additional pixel events output by the event camera. In some implementations, generating the dynamic representation of the object involves identifying features disposed on the deformable surface of the object using the stream of pixel events. The features are determined by identifying patterns of pixel events. As new event stream data is received, the patterns of pixel events are recognized in the new data and used to modify the dynamic representation of the object.

Abstract: A grease filter for filtering grease and the use of the grease filter for a bearing in a wind turbine is provided. A grease filter is disclosed for filtering grease used for lubrication. The grease filter includes and inlet to allow the grease to enter the filter and an outlet to allow the grease to leave the filter, whereby the grease flows from the inlet towards the outlet along a flow path. The filter includes at least one magnetic element present in the flow path of the grease to attract magnetic particles present in the grease and deviate the particles out of the grease flow path.

Abstract: A method for producing a portable data carrier by means of a continuous production method, in particular a roll-to-roll method, includes the step of processing at least one foil in the form of roll goods. The unrolled foil is coated with an adhesive at least partially on at least one side. Subsequently, the foil is scored along at least one fold edge on at least one side of the foil. The foil is then folded along the scored fold edge in exact register and bonded. For this purpose the foil is folded in the direction of the side that is coated with adhesive, wherein the side coated with adhesive is arranged on the opposite side of the foil which has at least one scored fold edge, along which the folding is effected. Finally, data carriers are punched out in exact register from the at least one folded and bonded foil.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method is provided for physical face cloning to generate a synthetic skin. Rather than attempt to reproduce the mechanical properties of biological tissue, an output-oriented approach is utilized that models the synthetic skin as an elastic material with isotropic and homogeneous properties (e.g., silicone rubber). The method includes capturing a plurality of expressive poses from a human subject and generating a computational model based on one or more material parameters of a material. In one embodiment, the computational model is a compressible neo-Hookean material model configured to simulate deformation behavior of the synthetic skin. The method further includes optimizing a shape geometry of the synthetic skin based on the computational model and the captured expressive poses. An optimization process is provided that varies the thickness of the synthetic skin based on a minimization of an elastic energy with respect to rest state positions of the synthetic skin.

Abstract: A method for monitoring the operation of a gas turbine is provided, in which component vibrations are detected during the operation of the gas turbine by an acceleration sensor arranged on the component, a plurality of signal sections being determined by a plurality of frequency bands fb from the signal forwarded and processed by the acceleration sensor. To avoid an unnecessary shutdown of the gas turbine to perform an inspection which subsequently proves unnecessary, thereby increasing the availability of the gas turbine, a total vibration period is determined by adding together the vibration periods of signal sections during which the amplitudes of the signal sections concerned are greater than a frequency band-specific threshold.
