摘要:
A system and method for providing an augmented reality environment in which the environmental mapping process is decoupled from the localization processes performed by one or more mobile devices is described. In some embodiments, an augmented reality system includes a mapping system with independent sensing devices for mapping a particular real-world environment and one or more mobile devices. Each of the one or more mobile devices utilizes a separate asynchronous computing pipeline for localizing the mobile device and rendering virtual objects from a point of view of the mobile device. This distributed approach provides an efficient way for supporting mapping and localization processes for a large number of mobile devices, which are typically constrained by form factor and battery life limitations.

A touch sensor provides frames of touch sensor data, as the touch sensor is sampled over time. Spatial and temporal features of the touch sensor data from a plurality of frames, and contacts and attributes of the contacts in previous frames, are processed to identify contacts and attributes of the contacts in a current frame. Attributes of the contacts can include, whether the contact is reliable, shrinking, moving, or related to a fingertip touch. The characteristics of contacts can include information about the shape and rate of change of the contact, including but not limited to a sum of its pixels, its shape, size and orientation, motion, average intensities and aspect ratio.
摘要:
Apparatus 11 for rapid discharge of one or more fire extinguishing agent(s) comprises a sealed container 13 forming an interior volume 15 in communication with a rapidly opening valve assembly 17. The interior volume contains fire extinguishing agent(s), super-pressurised by a gas such as nitrogen. A portion of the nitrogen is dissolved into the fire extinguishing agent(s). When an incident is detected which requires the discharge of the fire extinguishing agent(s) the valve 17 is opened. Opening the valve 17 causes rapid dissolution of the nitrogen from the fire extinguishing agent(s), forming a two-phase mixture (like a foam or mousse) which substantially fills the volume 15 and causing the discharge of fire extinguishing agent(s) from the valve assembly 17. Because the two phase mixture is used to discharge the fire extinguishing agent(s), and this two phase mixture substantially fills the interior volume 15, the fire extinguishing agent(s) will be discharged irrespective of the orientation of the canister 13 and the position of the valve assembly 17.

A non-toxic chemical composition inhibits corrosion in metal substrates. The composition contains a Phosphorus compound, comprising an acid and a metal selected from the group consisting of an alkali, alkaline earth, or transition metal. The composition also contains a Boron compound comprising an acid and a metal selected from the group consisting of an alkali, alkaline earth, or transition metal. A process of making the chemical composition comprises the steps of filling a mixer with 30-60% by weight of hot water and adding 10-20% by weight of barium carbonate or strontium carbonate, 10-20% by weight of phosphoric acid (75%), 5-15% by weight of lime, and 10-20% by weight of Boric acid; mixing the said contents for 10-15 minutes to create a wet slurry; pouring said wet slurry into an attrition mill for 15-60 minutes; drying said wet slurry and milling said wet slurry to an average particle size of 1.0-2.0 microns to form a dry pigment; pushing said dry pigment through a 325 mesh sieve.
