Abstract: An ultra-low latency remote access system may stream video images from a remote application server to a client device, but may render a cursor separately on the client device. The remote application may send cursor bitmaps and other cursor information to the client device, which may be rendered by the client device to give a near-native response time and feel to the user experience. The remote access system may operate in a browser environment, with executable code in the browser to capture user input, including pointer and keyboard inputs. Executable code on the application server may encode screen images into video, which may be transmitted and rendered on the client device. In some cases, the rendered video may be larger than the displayable area of the client device, allowing for panning and zooming to be performed on the client device.

Abstract: A client device may connect to a remote browsing server, which may browse to a Uniform Resource Identifier, render a web service or other content, and stream the content back to the client device. The client device may have a web browser through which the server may stream rendered images and which may capture various inputs, such as mouse operations, keyboard inputs, and other input. The remote browsing server may receive the inputs from the browser, then transmit the inputs to the web service through a server browser, which may render the images transmitted to the client device. The remote browsing server may be a virtual machine that may be created for a limited use, such that the virtual machine and browser may be wiped clean with each use.

Abstract: A1A system embodying the invention includes a controlling device and a set of rendering devices, with the effect that the controlling device can distribute a set of objects to the rendering devices. Each rendering device computes a (2D) image in response to the objects assigned to it, including computing multiple overlapping images and using a graphics processor to blend those images into a resultant image. To interface with the graphics processor, each rendering device spoofs the ?-value with a pixel feature other than opacity (opacity is expected by the graphics processor), with the effect that the graphics processor delivers useful ?-values, while still delivering correct color values, for each pixel. This has the effect that the resultant images include transparency information sufficient to combine them using transparency blending.

Abstract: A distributed rendering system with compression of streams of rendering commands. The controlling device 110 fits streams of rendering commands to the rendering devices 120 within the frame duration by distributing compressed streams. Streams are compressed by caching relatively duplicative sequences of rendering commands. To provide additional efficiency, textures that are mapped to 3D objects can be stored at the rendering devices 120 such that they do not need to be sent from a controlling device 110 everytime the rendering device 120 needs them. Also, long chains of individual vertex calls can be converted on the fly into vertex arrays.

Abstract: A system and process for performing a crimping operation by which a fitting is crimped to the end of a fluid conduit, and which automatically compensates for one or more variables that can lead to out-of-tolerance crimp diameters, particularly fitting spring-back and crimper deflection. The system and method use a device for inputting into the system a targeted crimp diameter for the fitting, and a crimper for crimping the fitting to the end of the fluid conduit. The crimper comprises a plurality of dies and an actuator for contracting the dies around the fitting to obtain the targeted crimp diameter for the fitting. The system and method further includes a unit for attaining the targeted crimp diameter by automatically compensating contraction of the dies for spring-back of the fitting during crimping and/or deflection of the crimper during crimping.

Abstract: A controlling device 110 that splits a 3D scene 131 into 3D sub-scenes, each including a sub-volume 133 of the 3D scene 131, and distributes the 3D sub-scenes to multiple rendering devices 120. Each rendering device 120 independently determines a 2D sub-image 141 responsive to its 3D sub-scene and a rendering viewpoint 132. The 2D sub-images 141 are composited using a back-to-front partial ordering with respect to the rendering viewpoint 132.

Abstract: In a method and the arrangement for determining projection data for a projection of a spatially variable area, change data are determined in a first computing unit, where the change data describe a change in the spatially variable area from a starting state to an end state. The change data are transmitted to a second computing unit and to a third computing unit, which are each connected to the first computing unit. First current projection data for a first projection of the spatially variable area are determined in the second computing unit using the change data and first previously stored projection data. Second current projection data for a second projection of the spatially variable area are determined in the third computing unit using the change data and second previously stored projection data.
