A vehicle repair estimate platform for collecting vehicle repair data from a depth and dimension measuring camera and generating a manipulatable three-dimensional model of the vehicle damage. An estimate is generated based on insured claim attributes and predefined vehicle damage parameters, and the estimate tagged for periodic selection for inclusion in a wide area repair estimate matrix.

The disclosure provides a structure diagnosis system and a structure diagnosis method. The structure diagnosis system includes: a lidar scanner scanning a structure to generate a point cloud data; an input interface receiving the point cloud data; and a processor receiving the point cloud data and generating a point cloud data set. The processor executes a surface degradation and geometry abnormal coupling diagnosis module to: marking a first point cloud range of a surface degradation area according to color space value of the point cloud data set; marking a second point cloud range of a geometry abnormal area according to coordinate value of the point cloud data set; when an abnormal area includes the first point cloud range and the second point cloud range at least partially overlapping each other, determining surface degradation or geometry abnormal occurring at the abnormal area and mark the abnormal area with a predetermined mode.

The disclosure relates to a computer-implemented method comprising inputting a representation of a 3D modeled object to an abstraction neural network which outputs a first set of a first number of first primitives fitting the 3D modeled object; and determining, from the first set, one or more second sets each of a respective second number of respective second primitives. The second number is lower than the first number. The determining includes initializing a third set of third primitives as the first set and performing one or more iterations, each comprising merging one or more subsets of third primitives together each into one respective single fourth primitive, to thereby obtain a fourth set of fourth primitives. Each iteration further comprises setting the third set of a next iteration as the fourth set of a current iteration and setting the one or more second sets as one or more obtained fourth sets.

The invention concerns a method implemented by computer means for visualizing at least a zone of an object in at least one interface, said method comprising the following steps: obtaining at least one image of said zone, said image comprising at least one channel, said image being a 2-dimensional or 3-dimensional image comprising pixels or voxels, a value being associated to each channel of each pixel or voxel of said image, a representation of said image being displayed in the interface, obtaining at least one annotation from a user, said annotation defining a group of selected pixels or voxels of said image, calculating a transfer function based on said selected pixels or voxels and applying said transfer function to the values of each channel of the image, updating said representation of the image in the interface, in which the colour and the transparency of the pixels or voxels of said representation are dependent on the transfer function.

[Problem] An aspect of the present disclosure provides a medical image processing system that facilitates the recognition of the position of a 3D model image in a medical image.

[Solution] A medical image processing system includes: an acquisition unit that acquires a real-time 3D surgical image of an operation site stereoscopically viewable by a surgeon and a 3D model image that is a stereoscopic CG image associated with the 3D surgical image; and a superimposition unit that performs enhancement such that the location of the 3D model image at predetermined spatial positions is enhanced with respect to the 3D surgical image or the 3D model image at the start of superimposition of the 3D model image at the predetermined spatial positions when the 3D surgical image is stereoscopically viewed on the basis of information set for the 3D model image.

Methods and systems are provided for assisting a user with parking a vehicle in a parking space. In various embodiments a method includes: receiving, by a processor, user input indicating a position of a virtual line displayed on a display screen of the vehicle, wherein the virtual line is adjustable by a user; storing, by the processor and in a datastore, the position of the virtual line and a vehicle position associated with a parking space; and selectively displaying, by the processor, an appearance of the virtual line on the display screen when the vehicle is within a range of the vehicle position to assist a user in parking the vehicle in the parking space, wherein the selectively displaying is based on a comparison of a boundary within a scene associated with the parking space and the virtual line.

Embodiments of the present disclosure provide methods, apparatus, systems, computer program products for transferring a performance of a procedure found in technical documentation for an item via an interactive electronic technical manual system (IETM) configured to provide electronic and credentialed access to the technical documentation. In one embodiment, a method is provided comprising: providing the steps of the procedure in an order in which the steps are to be carried out; and while a user is participating in the performance of the procedure: causing a particular step that is being carried out to be highlighted; receiving input of a selection of a transfer mechanism and in response: causing an indication to be displayed between the particular step and a next step to be carried out identifying where the performance has been suspended; providing a transfer window displaying transfer information; and recording the transfer information and an identifier for the indication.

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described herein to model divergent beam ray paths between locations on a roof (e.g., of a structure) and modeled locations of the sun at different times of the day and different days during a week, month, year, or another time period. A graphical user interface allows for visualization of the modeled ray paths and graphical manipulation of the resolution and parameters of the modeling process.

An augmented reality visualizer for swimming pools is described herein. In one example, a system can receive images of a target area for a swimming pool from a camera. The system can generate an augmented reality environment by analyzing the images. The augmented reality environment can include a virtual swimming pool overlaying at least one image of the target area. The system can then output the augmented reality environment on a display for viewing by a user.

Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for generating a cross-section of a 3D model are disclosed. An example method includes determining a cross-section plane intersecting the 3D model, performing ray-tracing by passing each of a plurality of rays through a corresponding pixel of a viewing plane such that each ray intersects the cross-section plane, determining one or more rays that are within a threshold distance of the 3D model at their respective points of intersection with the cross section plane, and highlighting pixels corresponding to the determined rays.
