Abstract: Systems for and methods for generating precise structure reconstruction using slice and view images, are disclosed. An example method comprises, obtaining a slice and view images of a sample that depicts a 3D fiducial and cross-sections of a structure in the sample. The 3D fiducial is configured such that when a layer of material having a uniform thickness is removed from a surface of the sample that includes the 3D fiducial the cross-sectional shape of the 3D fiducial in the new surface is consistent. Relative positions are determined between the 3D fiducial the cross-sections of the structure in individual images. Positional relationships are then determined between the cross-sections of the structure in different images in a common reference frame based on the relative positions.

Abstract: A removable insert and a spray nozzle which includes the removable insert and a nozzle cap. The removable insert has a base member and a protruding member. The nozzle cap has an annular flange which delimits an interior locating surface for the insert. The flange extends radially and ends with an internal extremity which defines a planar spray opening. When in use, the base member is housed within the nozzle cap whilst the protruding member projects outwardly and stands proud of the planar spray opening.

Abstract: An improved electromagnetic field generating antenna is compatible with fluoroscopic imaging and can be placed under, above or anywhere around the patient. The antenna includes one or more antenna elements laid out on a single or multi-layer PCB with current conducting metal traces used for creating electromagnetic fields for tracking sensors. An antenna enclosure is made with a polymer or other non-conductive material. The antenna does not have to be moved for allowing medical imaging during various procedures. An X-ray filter may be made out of similar sub-components as a full antenna assembly with the sole purpose of reducing the radiation dose to the patient during medical procedures without negatively affecting the image quality.

Abstract: An example system comprises an electric machine including a stator and a rotor, a cooling system configured to supply a cooling fluid to cool the electric machine, and a stator tube configured to contain the cooling fluid within a stator portion of the electric machine and prevent the cooling fluid from contacting the rotor.

Abstract: A sensor includes a core oriented along a first vector corresponding to an axis of the core. A slanted coil has windings around the core at an angle to the axis of the core along a second vector oriented at a substantial angle to the direction of the windings. At least one middle conductor is coupled to the windings to enable dividing the windings into sub-coils about the middle conductors. The sub-coils may have different slants with respect to the direction of the windings. A pair of end conductors are coupled to opposite ends of the coils such that signals obtained from the middle and end conductors provide sufficient information to determine roll about the axis of the core.

Abstract: A biometric attribution approach identifies a keyboard actor based on timing between entered keystrokes. Patterns tend to emerge in a timing interval between keystrokes entered by an actor. The keystroke patterns of an actor are analyzed to compute a signature exhibited by the actor. Gathered or intercepted keystroke patterns of an unknown actor are compared to identify a likelihood that typing sessions emanated from a common actor. Keystroke activity of a purported suspect actor can be compared to a database or model of keystroke attributes for determining if the keystroke activity emanated from the same actor as other keystroke sequences. Keystroke patterns rely only on the timing between keystrokes, as key data and upstroke information need not be gathered since the comparisons reply only on keystroke timing deltas.

Abstract: Redeposition of substrate material on a fiducial resulting from charged particle beam (CPB) or laser beam milling of a substrate can be reduced with a shield formed on the substrate surface. The shield typically has a suitable height that can be selected based on proximity of an area to be milled to the fiducial. The shield can be formed with the milling beam using beam-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The same or different beams can be used for milling and beam-assisted CVD.

Abstract: An aspirating spray nozzle assembly includes a nozzle body and a distributor removably attached to one another. The nozzle body includes a first inlet, a first chamber, an orifice disc and an annular catchment. The first inlet has a first end and a second end. The first chamber facilitates diffusion of the liquid jet. The first chamber has a third end in communication with the second end of the first inlet and a fourth end in communication with the distributor. The orifice disc is received within the first inlet. The orifice disc has a dispersing means adapted to cause the liquid jet to spread. The annular catchment encircles the fourth end of the first chamber. The annular catchment is configured to catch and deflect a portion of liquid splashback by the interfering means such that the portion of deflected liquid splashback is redirected downstream into the distributor.

Abstract: A cooling system includes a first cooling loop, a second cooling loop and a heat exchanger configured to transfer heat from the first cooling loop to the second cooling loop. The first cooling loop includes a flow restrictor, an inertial separator, and a pressure relief valve cooperating to effect diversion of vapor present in the first cooling loop due to a leak between the first cooling loop and the second cooling loop.

Abstract: A detachable cargo mirror assembly for use on a rotorcraft surface that includes a bracket for mounting to a surface on the rotorcraft, the bracket comprising a base portion and a retainer portion having a first pair of opposing holes, an elongated arm having two opposing ends, a first end for coupling with the bracket and a second end coupled to a mirror apparatus, the first end having a passage; and a releasable connector that engages with the first pair of opposing holes and the passage in the elongated arm when the elongated arm is in a first position to display a desired image on the mirror apparatus. The detachable cargo mirror assembly can be removed or in a stowed position when not in use.
