  • Patent number: 11587315
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for augmented reality measuring of equipment. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes an image comparator to compare camera data with reference information of a reference vehicle part to identify a vehicle part included in the camera data, and an inspection image analyzer to, in response to the image comparator identifying the vehicle part, measure the vehicle part by causing an interface generator to generate an overlay representation of the reference vehicle part on the camera data displayed on a user interface, and determining, based on one or more user inputs to adjust the overlay representation, a measurement corresponding to the vehicle part.

  • Patent number: 11580628
    Abstract: Methods, apparatus, systems and articles of manufacture are disclosed for augmented reality vehicle condition inspection. An example apparatus disclosed herein includes a location analyzer to determine whether a camera is at an inspection location and directed towards a first vehicle in an inspection profile, the inspection location corresponding to a location of the camera relative to the first vehicle, an interface generator to generate an indication on a display that the camera is at the inspection location, the indication associated with an inspection image being captured, and an image analyzer to compare the inspection image captured at the inspection location with a reference image taken of a reference vehicle of a same type as the first vehicle, and determine a vehicle part condition or a vehicle condition based on the comparison of the inspection image and the reference image.

  • Publication number: 20220338448
    Abstract: An artificial and/or simulated environment is used to raise a domestic or commercially raised animal to promote a positive health feedback and to minimize stress on the animal. The simulated environment is used to create the façade of a free range or cage free environment, while also minimizing the exposure to inclement weather, potential predators, and other unknown or stress-inducing situations. The results include animals that have higher resistance to diseases and have a lower stress. The artificial environment can be created by projecting or otherwise showing images and/or videos depicting simulation of environments, climate, and/or other unknown situations to normalize the animals to the same.
