Abstract: A method and system to receive an indication of a location of an asset from a tag associated with and adjacent to the asset, the location of the asset being within a known mapping of an indoor environment; receive an indication of a location of an augmented reality device, the indicated location of the asset being within the known mapping of the indoor environment; determine a location of the asset relative to the augmented reality device based on the received information from the asset and the received information from the augmented device; determine contextual directions from the determined location of the augmented reality device to the indicated location of the asset; and present, in a current field of view display on the augmented reality device a combination of a representation of the determined location of the asset and a representation of the determined contextual directions.

Abstract: A method and system to receive information from at least one multivariable sensor, each multivariable sensor being deployed in an environment, having internet connectivity to communicate with at least one other device over the internet, and selectively determining at least one attribute of multiple events in its environment; receive an indication of a location of the multivariable sensor; receive an indication of a location of an augmented reality device; determine an alarm based on the received information from the at least one multivariable sensor; determine a location for the alarm and a location of a solution associated with the alarm; and present, in a field of view display on the augmented reality device, a visualization of the determined alarm and at least one of the determined location for the alarm and the determined location for the solution associated with the alarm.

Abstract: An augmented reality device including a transparent display screen and a lens system disposed adjacent to the transparent display screen, a control processor in communication with a data store, the data store including one or more virtual image records. If the lens system is a micro-lens, the control processor provides control commands to the transparent display screen to cause generation of an augmented reality image by interspersing inactive pixels elements with active pixel elements to provide a spatial domain combined image of the real world and virtual images. If the lens system is a focus tunable lens, the control processor provides control commands to the transparent display screen and the focus tunable lens to cause alternating transparent views of the real world image object and virtual image. The alternating of images occurring at frame rate greater that visible by a user's eye(s).

Abstract: A wearable device for providing ultrasound guidance feedback may include a housing that has a plurality of haptic actuators, and an opening extending along an axis through the housing. The opening may fit about a body part of an operator of an ultrasound probe, and the haptic actuators may pulse in an actuation pattern indicative of one or more suggested movements of the ultrasound probe to position the ultrasound probe in a desired position to acquire imaging data of a region of interest of a patient.

Abstract: An automated measurement system includes multi-axis imager configured to receive images of a workpiece wherein the images include visual information about the workpiece at a plurality of focus planes or visual information about the workpiece between at least two focus planes. The multi-axis imager is also configured to determine a point cloud of a plurality of 3 D data points wherein each of the plurality of 3 D data points represents an intersection of one of the plurality of focus planes with a surface of the workpiece or positional information of the workpiece in a de-focused area between the at least two focus planes. The multi-axis imager is further configured to determine a plurality of dimensions of features of the workpiece and compare the determined plurality of dimensions of the features to manufacturing specifications corresponding to at least some of the determined plurality of dimensions of the features.
