20090094091 | SERVICE CALL DATA SELECTION AND DELIVERY METHOD AND SYSTEM - A method of dispatching a service call for an electromechanical device, such as a document production device, is disclosed. The method includes receiving, by a dispatching server, a communication requesting service on a first document production device. The communication includes a unique identifier corresponding to the first device. A data server stores operational history data for a multiple document production devices, and the dispatching server accesses the operational history data in the data server to retrieve service data for the first device. The dispatching service sends a service order message to a customer service representative mobile communication device. The service order message includes a location identifier for the first device, operator contact information for the first device, and the service data. | 04-09-2009 |

20160063309 | Combination of Stereo and Structured-Light Processing - Methods and systems for determining depth information using a combination of stereo and structured-light processing are provided. An example method involves receiving a plurality of images captured with at least two optical sensors, and determining a first depth estimate for at least one surface based on corresponding features between a first image and a second image. Further, the method involves causing a texture projector to project a known texture pattern, and determining, based on the first depth estimate, at least one region of at least one image of the plurality of images within which to search for a particular portion of the known texture pattern. And the method involves determining points corresponding to the particular portion of the known texture pattern within the at least one region, and determining a second depth estimate for the at least one surface based on the determined points corresponding to the known texture pattern. | 03-03-2016 |
20160084642 | Determining a Virtual Representation of an Environment By Projecting Texture Patterns - Example methods and systems for determining 3D scene geometry by projecting patterns of light onto a scene are provided. In an example method, a first projector may project a first random texture pattern having a first wavelength and a second projector may project a second random texture pattern having a second wavelength. A computing device may receive sensor data that is indicative of an environment as perceived from a first viewpoint of a first optical sensor and a second viewpoint of a second optical sensor. Based on the received sensor data, the computing device may determine corresponding features between sensor data associated with the first viewpoint and sensor data associated with the second viewpoint. And based on the determined corresponding features, the computing device may determine an output including a virtual representation of the environment that includes depth measurements indicative of distances to at least one object. | 03-24-2016 |
20160089791 | Continuous Updating of Plan for Robotic Object Manipulation Based on Received Sensor Data - Example systems and methods allow for dynamic updating of a plan to move objects using a robotic device. One example method includes determining a virtual environment by one or more processors based on sensor data received from one or more sensors, the virtual environment representing a physical environment containing a plurality of physical objects, developing a plan, based on the virtual environment, to cause a robotic manipulator to move one or more of the physical objects in the physical environment, causing the robotic manipulator to perform a first action according to the plan, receiving updated sensor data from the one or more sensors after the robotic manipulator performs the first action, modifying the virtual environment based on the updated sensor data, determining one or more modifications to the plan based on the modified virtual environment, and causing the robotic manipulator to perform a second action according to the modified plan. | 03-31-2016 |

20120021429 | Compositions, Products, Methods And Systems to Monitor Water And Other Ecosystems - Disclosed are compositions, products, methods and systems for monitoring ecosystems, such as bodies of water, for a parameter of the ecosystems, such as the presence or absence of mercury. In one embodiment, the product may include a plurality of oligonucleotides immobilized at known locations on a substrate as an array, such that each location on the array is an oligonucleotide having a sequence derived from a single, predetermined operational taxonomic unit (OTU) and wherein at least one sequence on the array is associated with the presence or absence of mercury. The sequences immobilized on the array may be from known, or unknown organisms. Also disclosed are methods for identifying and isolating bioindicators diagnostic of ecosystem parameters, such as whether mercury is present. The compositions, products, methods and systems of the invention may be used for rapid, and continual monitoring of ecosystems for parameters of interest, such as the presence or absence of mercury. | 01-26-2012 |
