20120323992 | GEOSPATIAL VISUALIZATION PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT FOR CONTIGUOUS POLYLINES WITH SIMILAR DYNAMIC CHARACTERISTICS - Techniques are disclosed for rendering geographic information system (GIS) data. A server component responding to a request for GIS data for a given area combines contiguous elements that share the same dynamic characteristics. For example, a map server may combine the polylines of contiguous road segments sharing the same current speed/congestion conditions. Doing so may greatly reduce the number of individual polylines that are sent to a client for rendering. | 12-20-2012 |
20140040805 | CHART GENERATION BASED ON USER CONTROL INFERENCES - In some example embodiments, a computer-implemented method includes receiving, for each of a number of user interface controls, selections by a user of at least one of exactly one value, a subset of values, all values, and no values. The selections by the user define non-chart-related settings, The method includes inferring intent of the user of at least one attribute of a chart based on the selections by the user via the number of user interface controls. The method includes defining at least one characteristic of the chart for displaying the chart based on the intent. | 02-06-2014 |

20090289176 | COPLANAR CAMERA SCANNING SYSTEM - A system for scanning objects having at least two linear array sensors, adapted to detect light input signals, is provided. A lens is optically connected to each of the linear array sensors, and are adapted to receive and transmit an optical image located in a respective lens field of view along a respective lens axis to the respective one of the at least two linear array sensor. A light source which generates an illumination stripe in general linear alignment with the lens axis across a depth of the field of view is provided. A cylindrical lens is positioned between the light source and an object to be scanned. The cylindrical lens adapted to collect, transmit and focus light from the light source to form the illumination stripe. This arrangement provides a wider system field of view with generally more uniform resolution. | 11-26-2009 |
20100006518 | QUICK INSTALLATION MOUNTING STRUCTURE - A quick installation mounting structure for use with a barcode scanning tunnel has at least one vertical post that defines a first plurality of axial slots formed along a length of the vertical post, at least one cross-member that defines a second plurality of axial slots formed along a length of the cross-member, at least one bracket for connecting the at least one vertical post to the at least one cross-member, and a plurality of fasteners. Each of the fasteners are received through the bracket so that an end of each fastener is received in one of the vertical post and cross member slots so that the fastener is rotationally fixed but axially moveable with respect to the vertical post or cross member. | 01-14-2010 |
20100006742 | LARGE DEPTH OF FIELD LINE SCAN CAMERA - A system for imaging an object comprising a surface for receiving the object to be imaged and an imaging device. The imaging device comprises a housing and a fixed focusing optical device mounted to the housing, whereby the fixed focusing optics comprises a lens for focusing light reflected from the object. A plurality of independent linear imaging sensors are positioned in the housing at different distances from the fixed focusing lens so that a face of each of the plurality of independent linear imaging sensors is aligned parallel to the surface. A processor is coupled to the plurality of independent linear imaging sensors for receiving an output signal from each of the plurality of independent linear imaging sensors representative of the reflected light. The lens defines a plane parallel to the surface, and the plurality of independent linear imaging sensors are adapted to receive reflected light from the object. | 01-14-2010 |
