A computer-aided design (CAD) system enables physical articles to be customized via printing or embroidering and enables digital content to be customized and electronically shared. A CAD user interface may be generated that includes an image of a model of an article of manufacture and a customizable template. The customizable template may include user customizable design areas. One or more defined rules associated with respective customizable areas may be accessed. In response to a user selection of a default content item and a corresponding rule, content items may be automatically used to populate other template design areas and/or change a color of one or content items. Manufacturing instructions corresponding to the user customizations may be transmitted to a printing system using a file that includes location, rotation, and/or scale data.

A method and system including identifying, via at least one processor, a user role; configuring, via the at least one processor, an interface for the user role, wherein configuring the interface includes determining an interface view for the user role; and displaying, via the at least one processor, the interface with the interface view.

A body armor for protecting a part of body against a projectile, the body armor comprising an outer surface, an inner surface, and a plurality of cavities. The inner surface is shaped to fit over the protected body part, and the cavities reduce the armor weight. Additionally the cavities profile can help in stopping projectiles.

Providing an eyeglasses frame in a fully automatized manner includes: (d) obtaining a set of data relating to a 3D representation of the frame, from: (a) initial information relating to an initial representation of the frame; and (b) at least one wearer parameter, possibly automatically modified; and (c) at least one frame parameter, possibly automatically modified; and taking account of at least one constraint or automatically modified constraint, relating to geometry of the frame; and automatically providing the 3D representation from the obtained set of data; (e) applying an evaluation criterion to determine whether the 3D representation satisfies the constraint or automatically modified constraint and, if not, (f) iterating obtaining (d) and applying (e) with the automatically modified wearer parameter and/or with the automatically modified frame parameter and/or with the automatically modified constraint, to automatically provide a constraint-compliant set of data relating to a final representation of the frame.

A chip design methodology and a set of integrated circuits that are taped out from a common design database are disclosed. The area of a full instance of the integrated circuit is defined, and one or more chop lines are defined to identify portions that will be removed for one or more partial instances. A variety of techniques and mechanisms are defined to permit the tape outs to occur from a common design database, so that the effort to tape out partial instances may be minimized beyond that to tape out the full instance.

A method for vehicle design includes accessing a plurality of confidential documents secured by at least one access mechanism. The method also includes extracting a set of parallel data including at least one of: a vehicle feature implementing the innovative vehicle technology, a vehicle feature cost, and a vehicle feature production time, and storing each set of parallel data in a parallel data store. The method includes mapping a customer vehicle attribute to the vehicle feature in each set of parallel data by applying a customer core values model. Further, the method includes identifying potential vehicle features from the parallel data store that satisfy one or more production constraints and optimizes customer value according to the customer vehicle attributes. The method also includes generating a vehicle feature production list for the new vehicle model based on the potential vehicle features.

A method for augmented reality content production based on attribute information application according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, as a method for augmented reality content production based on attribute information application by a production application executed by at least one or more processors of a computing device, comprises providing a virtual object authoring space which is a virtual space for authoring a virtual object and includes at least one or more reference objects; providing a virtual object authoring interface for the virtual object authoring space; generating augmentation relationship attribute information based on a virtual object generated based on the provided virtual object authoring interface and at least one reference object of the virtual object authoring space; storing the virtual object by including the generated augmentation relationship attribute information; and displaying the stored virtual object on a reference object in a different space other than the virtual object authoring space based on the augmentation relationship attribute information.

Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe systems, methods, and devices for generating a design layout. In an embodiment, a design generator may present one or more templates comprising one or more design elements. In response to a selection of one or more of the templates, the design generator may generate a variation vector based on similarities and/or differences between the one or more design elements. In an embodiment, the design generator may generate a layering vector based on the one or more design elements. In response to subsequent selections, the design generator may generate subsequent templates by implementing the variation vector and/or the layering vector in association with the selected template(s). The design generator may store and/or otherwise capture the features of a selected template, and apply the features to future design projects.

A method and a device for commissioning a passenger transport system to be manufactured, such as an escalator, is disclosed. The method comprises the creation of a commissioning digital double dataset of the passenger transport system with target data that depicts characterizing properties of components of the passenger transport system in a target configuration.

Method and system for brace designing. The method comprises the following steps: S1) fixing a subject requiring a brace; S2) acquiring skeletal image information of the subject; S3) determining an adjustment solution for implementing an adjustment with respect to the subject and a target state that is to be achieved ultimately; S4) adjusting the subject to alter the skeletal structure of the subject; S5) acquiring adjusted skeletal image information of the subject; S6) determining whether the skeleton of the subject has been adjusted to the target state; if yes, then terminating adjustment and entering step S7; if not, then returning to step S4; S7) acquiring the body surface three-dimensional shape of the subject having achieved the target state and recording information of the force applied by an adjusting head to the subject for use in manufacturing a corresponding brace; thus allowing the highly efficient designing of a brace.
