Patent number: 12079638Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for managing mixed-reality systems. These methods or systems authenticate and authorize a user into an authorized user at a management software application, identify one or more device management modules, and provision a set of management modules performing a set of respective functions to the authorized user. These methods or systems further receive, from at least one management module in the set based at least in part upon an instruction from the authorized user, and executing one or more management instructions, wherein execution of the one or more management instructions causes a state of a mixed reality device, and the mixed-reality device is operatively connected to the management software application.Type: GrantFiled: October 2, 2020Date of Patent: September 3, 2024Assignee: Magic Leap, Inc.Inventors: Mark Ryan Terpstra, Lindsey Leigh Interlandi, Ketki Hemant Jadhav, Zachary Adam Keener, Guillaume Jeoffrey Charmes, Nathan Riley Spiller, Michel Ian Marrache, David Campise, Rene Travieso, Shaun P.

Patent number: 12073234Abstract: Disclosed are methods and systems for managing mixed-reality systems. These methods or systems identify, at a management software application, a set of managed mixed-reality devices and validate a device management license against a managed mixed-reality device in the set of managed mixed-reality devices. Whether a software application installed or to be installed on the managed mixed-reality device is amenable to a software management function is verified based at least in part upon an operation mode of the managed mixed-reality device and a profile that is applied to the managed mixed-reality device or is associated with the authorized user. The software management function is programmatically performed by the management software application for the software application based at least in part upon a result of verifying whether the software application is amenable to the software management operation.Type: GrantFiled: June 22, 2023Date of Patent: August 27, 2024Assignee: Magic Leap, Inc.Inventors: Mark Ryan Terpstra, Lindsey Leigh Interlandi, Ketki Hemant Jadhav, Zachary Adam Keener, Guillaume Jeoffrey Charmes, Nathan Riley Spiller, Michel Ian Marrache, David Campise, Rene Travieso, Shaun P.

Publication number: 20240227741Abstract: Revving an engine may be helpful in various contexts, such as when servicing the vehicle. For example, in some types of services, a cleaning agent may be introduced into the intake and surrounding regions of an engine, and the engine may be revved to reduce a likelihood that the cleaning agent might puddle. In some instances, a device can be positioned within a vehicle interior and can be used to automatically rev the vehicle engine by depressing on the vehicle throttle.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 23, 2023Publication date: July 11, 2024Inventors: Michael Jason ERWIN, Bradley Robert YOUNG, Stephen Marvin Pederson, Zachary Adam DOLD

Patent number: 11900042Abstract: In some aspects, a mask pattern is accessed. The mask pattern is for use in a lithography process that prints a pattern on a wafer. The mask pattern is applied as input to a deterministic model of the lithography process to predict a characteristic of the printed pattern. The deterministic model is deterministic, but it accounts for local stochastic variations of the characteristic in the printed pattern.Type: GrantFiled: November 9, 2021Date of Patent: February 13, 2024Assignee: Synopsys, Inc.Inventors: Kevin Dean Lucas, Yudhishthir Prasad Kandel, Ulrich Welling, Ulrich Karl Klostermann, Zachary Adam Levinson

Publication number: 20240001582Abstract: A deduster is comprised of two sets (pairs) of counter-rotating dedusting brushes in cooperation with a vacuum system for saw dust removal from wooden lumber. In addition to these features, the deduster may feature a separate, movable, top brush assembly that can be easily adjusted for different board thicknesses and raised up to allow for clearing board jams and for pass-through if boards were to be run without dedusting. This deduster apparatus is modular, thereby allowing it to be positioned over an existing machine or a lumber board unscrambler machine such as a lugged unscrambler machine. There is also a deduster for a board handling hopper.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 15, 2023Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Automated Industrial Industries, Inc.Inventors: Charles D.
