Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a hybrid subsystem orchestrates animated transitions between stereoscopic imaging and non-stereoscopic imaging. In operation, the hybrid subsystem receives frames that represent a three-dimensional object over time. The hybrid subsystem renders the first frame based on a left eye position and then re-renders the first frame based a right eye position. The left eye position and the right eye position are separated by a predetermined distance that is optimized for stereoscopic viewing. As part of rendering and re-rendering subsequent frames, the hybrid subsystem gradually deceases the distance between the left eye position and the right eye position. Upon receiving a final frame in the transition, the hybrid subsystem renders once—to a single eye position. Advantageously, because the rendered three-dimensional object image gradually loses depth throughout the animated transition, the hybrid subsystem minimizes disruptions to the viewing experience.

Abstract translation: 在本发明的一个实施例中，混合子系统协调立体成像与非立体成像之间的动画转换。 在操作中，混合子系统接收一段时间内表示三维对象的帧。 混合子系统基于左眼位置呈现第一帧，然后基于右眼位置重新呈现第一帧。 左眼位置和右眼位置被隔开预定距离，其被优化用于立体观看。 作为渲染和重新渲染后续帧的一部分，混合子系统逐渐地消除左眼位置和右眼位置之间的距离。 在转换中接收到最终帧时，混合子系统呈现一次到单个眼睛位置。 有利的是，由于所渲染的三维物体图像在整个动画过渡期间逐渐失去深度，所以混合子系统最小化对观看体验的破坏。

Abstract: A computing device is configured to generate a graphical user interface (GUI) that allows an end-user to search for particular document or documents within a large collection of documents. The GUI provides a view of the overall document collection and affords the end-user the ability to reduce the number of visual document thumbnails by means of keyword search. When the end-user identifies a candidate among the reduced number of thumbnails, the end-user may select the page view of the candidate document and conduct further review. If the selected candidate is not the target document, the end-user may select adjacent documents to seamlessly transition between reading and searching. An advantage to this approach is that the visual qualities of the documents, such as images, graphical layout, and color, among others, may be incorporated into the search process. Searching for a particular target document is, thus, expedited.

Abstract translation: 计算设备被配置为生成允许最终用户在大量文档集合内搜索特定文档或文档的图形用户界面（GUI）。 GUI提供了整体文档收集的视图，并且使最终用户能够通过关键字搜索来减少可视化文档缩略图的数量。 当最终用户在减少数量的缩略图中识别候选者时，最终用户可以选择候选文档的页面视图并进行进一步的审查。 如果所选择的候选者不是目标文件，则最终用户可以选择相邻的文档以在读取和搜索之间无缝地转换。 这种方法的优点在于，诸如图像，图形布局和颜色等文档的视觉质量等可以被并入搜索过程。 因此，搜索特定的目标文档是加速的。

Abstract: A sketch-based interface within an animation engine provides an end-user with tools for creating emitter textures and oscillator textures. The end-user may create an emitter texture by sketching one or more patch elements and then sketching an emitter. The animation engine animates the sketch by generating a stream of patch elements that emanate from the emitter. The end-user may create an oscillator texture by sketching a patch that includes one or more patch elements, and then sketching a brush skeleton and an oscillation skeleton. The animation engine replicates the patch along the brush skeleton, and then interpolates the replicated patches between the brush skeleton and the oscillation skeleton, thereby causing those replicated patches to periodically oscillate between the two skeletons.

Abstract: An automated robot design pipeline facilitates the overall process of designing robots that perform various desired behaviors. The disclosed pipeline includes four stages. In the first stage, a generative engine samples a design space to generate a large number of robot designs. In the second stage, a metric engine generates behavioral metrics indicating a degree to which each robot design performs the desired behaviors. In the third stage, a mapping engine generates a behavior predictor that can predict the behavioral metrics for any given robot design. In the fourth stage, a design engine generates a graphical user interface (GUI) that guides the user in performing behavior-driven design of a robot. One advantage of the disclosed approach is that the user need not have specialized skills in either graphic design or programming to generate designs for robots that perform specific behaviors or express various emotions.

Abstract: A design engine for designing an article to be worn on a human body part (input canvas) in a virtual environment. A virtual model engine of the design engine is used to generate and modify a virtual model of the input canvas and a virtual model of the article based on skin-based gesture inputs detected by an input processing engine. The gesture inputs comprise contacts between an input tool and the input canvas at locations on the input canvas. The virtual model engine may implement different design modes for receiving and processing gesture inputs for designing the article, including direct manipulation, generative manipulation, and parametric manipulation modes. In all three modes, a resulting virtual model of the article is based on physical geometries of at least part of the input canvas. The resulting virtual model of the article is exportable to a fabrication device for physical fabrication of the article.
