    摘要: A system and method for object detection in 3-dimensional space uses a ground up model that makes detecting objects faster and more accurate by combining the error correction and object detection, while also using flat planes as a basis for the mathematics. Two or more 3D scanning devices, such as scanning LIDARs, collect a 3D dataset for a field of view (FOV). The FOV is divided into boxes with a small degree of overlap, then each box is processed iteratively to identify features of an object contained within the box. Box size is chosen so that the portion of the object contained within the box can be assumed to be planar. Adjoining boxes are evaluated for shared data points then merged it the form part of the same object.

    摘要: The present invention is directed to a device that can easily deliver water or other sources of hydration from a bottle, directly to a user during exercise without the use of a traditional hydration bladder. The present invention features a hydration device for allowing delivery of a fluid from a container with a cap with a hole. The hydration device may comprise an outer tubing affixed around the hole and an inner tubing disposed within the outer tubing. The inner tubing may extend past both ends of the outer tubing, slide freely within the outer tubing, and extend to the bottom of the container. Both ends of both tubings may be always open. The fluid may be delivered from the container through the inner tubing when suction is applied. Air may be delivered from the outer tubing to the pre-existing container to prevent collapsing of the pre-existing container.
