Publication number: 20220358775Abstract: An image processing system analyzes each of a set of vehicle images to determine one or more vehicle segments present in the images. The image processing system uses a characterization engine in the form of a neural network based image model to process each of the pixels of each of the images to determine the particular pixels of the image (or of the object depicted within the image) within or associated with a particular vehicle segment, such as a vehicle door, bumper, right or left panel, rear panel, windshield, etc. The characterization engine or image model may be developed or trained using a training engine that analyzes a plurality of images of different vehicles damaged in various different manners which have been annotated, on a pixel by pixel basis, to indicate the segments of the vehicle to which the various pixels belong or depict, and which have also been annotated, on an image basis, to indicate the view and/or zoom level of the image.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 10, 2022Publication date: November 10, 2022Inventors: Neda Hantehzadeh, Bhadresh Dhanani, Sagar Bachwani, Ranjini Vaidyanathan, Masatoshi Kato, Srinivasan Krishnaswamy, Mina Haratiannezhadi

Patent number: 9910806Abstract: Embodiment of present disclosure relates to a Universal Serial Bus (USB) hub for switching downstream ports between host mode and slave mode comprising upstream port connectable to host port of host, downstream port and switching module. The downstream port is connectable to device port of peripheral device and acts in host mode and said device port acts in slave mode. The switching module comprises master port, switching port and control unit. The master port is connectable to upstream port. The switching port is connectable to other end of downstream port, the switching port acts in host mode. The control unit receives switch command from host to switch downstream port from host mode to slave mode; switches switching port to slave mode and enables downstream port to act in the slave mode when host emulates functionality of slave mode as required by peripheral device using vendor specific USB class.Type: GrantFiled: October 22, 2014Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: ALLGO EMBEDDED SYSTEMS PRIVATE LIMITEDInventors: Magesh Margabandu, Srinivasan Krishnaswamy, Vikas Shukla, Ashutosh Srivastva

Patent number: 8923686Abstract: Methods, systems and computer program products provide a dynamically configurable 3D display utilizing a content receiver. The content receiver generates the 3D content with an offset that enables the images to be viewable in a plurality of 3D regions, where each 3D region and images therein are perceived as having a different degree of depth relative to other images within 3D regions. The user viewing the 3D content may interact with the 3D content through a sensor device communicatively coupled to the content receiver that senses user movements and transmits signals to the content receiver for taking some action in response to the user's movements, including moving the 3D content between various 3D regions. 3D content in a foreground 3D region may be partially transparent to enable viewing of underlying 3D content in a background 3D region. 3D content may include a 3D user interface enabling the user to enter selections.Type: GrantFiled: May 20, 2011Date of Patent: December 30, 2014Assignee: EchoStar Technologies L.L.C.Inventor: Ravi Srinivasan Krishnaswamy

Patent number: 4347747Abstract: A method and apparatus for measuring fluid flow by placing two pressure sensors diametrically opposite each other in a flow line. The use of two sensors effectively cancels acoustic pressure fluctuations while preserving the local turbulent pressure fluctuations. The turbulent pressure fluctuations are proportional to the square of the flow rate of the fluid and are processed by the electrical circuit to derive a quantity proportional to the fluid flow rate.Type: GrantFiled: January 12, 1981Date of Patent: September 7, 1982Assignee: Shell Oil CompanyInventor: Srinivasan Krishnaswamy
