  • Publication number: 20240371292
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for integrating a simulated reality training environment and an augmented reality environment. The method comprises receiving simulated reality training feedback associated with performance of a simulated task in the simulated reality training environment; determining a source of error in the performance of the simulated task in the simulated reality training environment based on the simulated reality training feedback; determining a preventative action for preventing occurrence of the source of error during a real-world task to be performed in the augmented reality environment; generating virtual content based on the preventative action to assist a user in avoiding the source of error during the real-world task to be performed in the augmented reality environment; and causing the virtual content to be displayed to the user in the augmented reality environment during performance of the real-world task.

  • Patent number: 11523259
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for exchanging real-time data between vehicle systems by receiving, at a first source system, a request for data from a requestor and, based on determining that the first source system does not have all requested data, querying an operations center for missing data. Then, based on determining that the operations center does not have all missing data, the operations center is queried for a list comprising candidate source systems. Upon identifying a next source system from the list, the next source system is queried for missing data, and the next source system is removed from the list. Based on whether the next source system has all missing data, either all missing data is transmitted to the requestor, or, the process of finding and querying for the missing data is iteratively performed until all missing data is received or the list is empty.

  • Patent number: 7601237
    Abstract: An apparatus and accompanying method for handling fabrics used in the construction of composite components and in particular those used in aircraft includes a movable, gantry-type frame assembly having a movable robotic arm attached thereto. A drum assembly, attached to the robotic arm has one or more vacuum ports disposed along the surface of the drum. When vacuum from within the drum is applied to the ports and the drum is moved to contact flexible fabric material—such as the reinforcement fabric used for composite manufacture—an end of the fabric may be picked up through the effect of the applied vacuum and the fabric rolled-up around the drum. The movable gantry and/or the robotic arm may then move the drum to a desired location where the fabric is unrolled and prepared for composite manufacture. Variations to the vacuum ports permit the rolling and transport of a variety of materials and shapes.
