Publication number: 20220134615Abstract: A device for forming or molding elements on surfaces of a semi-finished product includes a C-shaped bracket element for displacing using a manipulator to a defined position with respect to a semi-finished product. An arrangement implemented for injection molding is disposed on a first leg and a backing holder is disposed on the second leg of the C-shaped bracket element. A semi-finished product can be disposed between the backing holder and the arrangement. A first molding tool is disposed in the direction toward a surface of the semi-finished product. The arrangement and/or the backing holder is/are displaceable against the corresponding surface of the semi-finished product, such that the open side of the first molding tool applies pressure to the corresponding surface of the semi-finished product and the backing holder contacts and applies pressure to the opposite surface of the semi-finished product.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 20, 2020Publication date: May 5, 2022Inventors: Hubert JÄGER, Michael KRAHL, Tony WEBER, Jan LUFT

Patent number: 10320860Abstract: The disclosure includes a system and method for detecting fine grain copresence between users. The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to: transmit a wakeup signal to a plurality of devices based on coarse grain location information; send a request to a first device of the plurality of devices to transmit a token using a first communication technology to determine fine grain copresence; receive a first token acknowledgment from a first subset of the plurality of devices; send a request to a second device of the first subset of the plurality of devices to transmit the token using a second communication technology to determine fine grain copresence; receive a second token acknowledgment from a second subset of the plurality of devices; and refine copresence based on receiving the first and second token acknowledgment.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2015Date of Patent: June 11, 2019Assignee: Google LLCInventors: Andrew Ames Bunner, Alan Lee Gardner, III, Mohammed Waleed Kadous, Brian Patrick Williams, Marc Stogaitis, Nadav Aharony, Brian Duff, Pascal Tom Getreuer, Zhentao Sun, Daniel Estrada Alva, Ami Patel, Benjamin Razon, Richard Daniel Webb, Tony Weber, Thomas Yuchin Chao, Ryan Michael Rifkin, Richard Francis Lyon, Liem Tran, Joseph A.

Patent number: 9769624Abstract: The disclosure includes a system and method for detecting fine grain copresence between users. The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to receive user input regarding copresence detection settings for a first user device, the copresence detection settings comprising a location and/or a user access control list, and determine a current location of the first user device. The system may determine whether copresence detection of the first user device is enabled at the current location based on the copresence detection settings and the current location. Based on determining that copresence detection is enabled, the system may refine copresence and perform an action based on fine grain copresence of the first and second user device.Type: GrantFiled: June 24, 2015Date of Patent: September 19, 2017Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Nadav Aharony, Andrew Ames Bunner, Alan Lee Gardner, III, Mohammed Waleed Kadous, Brian Patrick Williams, Marc Stogaitis, Brian Duff, Pascal Tom Getreuer, Zhentao Sun, Daniel Estrada Alva, Ami Patel, Benjamin Razon, Richard Daniel Webb, Tony Weber, Thomas Yuchin Chao, Ralph Jacob Cressman, Denise Ho, Liem Tran, Joseph A.

Patent number: 9386417Abstract: The disclosure includes a system and method for detecting fine grain copresence between users. The system includes a processor and a memory storing instructions that when executed cause the system to: process one or more signals to determine coarse grain location information of a first device and a second device; determine whether the first device and the second device are copresent based on the coarse grain location information; in response to determining that the first device and the second device are copresent based on the coarse grain location information, transmit a signal to the second device to alert the second device to listen for a fine grain copresence token from the first device; and refine copresence based on receiving an indication that the second device has received the fine grain copresence token.Type: GrantFiled: May 24, 2015Date of Patent: July 5, 2016Assignee: Google Inc.Inventors: Andrew Ames Bunner, Alan Lee Gardner, III, Mohammed Waleed Kadous, Brian Patrick Williams, Marc Stogaitis, Nadav Aharony, Brian Duff, Pascal Tom Getreuer, Zhentao Sun, Daniel Estrada Alva, Ami Patel, Benjamin Razon, Richard Daniel Webb, Tony Weber, Thomas Yuchin Chao, Ryan Michael Rifkin, Richard Francis Lyon, Liem Tran, Joseph A.
