US Classification:

707803

Abstract:

Techniques for providing feed-based case management on an online social network. A user interface that includes a publisher and an information feed is provided. Information associated with a record is received and the record is updated in a database system. A feed item associated with the database system update is generated and provided in the information feed. The feed item includes one or more actionable selections providing a reference to the publisher. Selection of one of the one or more actionable selections causes the publisher to be operable to receive further information associated with the record. The record is capable of being updated based on the further information. In some implementations, the record is a case and the user interface serves as a single interface for all interactions required in solving the case.

International Classification:

G08B001/08

US Classification:

340/539000, 340/541000

Abstract:

A motion sensor system is provided that has several sensor units. Each sensor unit is freely movable, easily hidden and includes a motion sensor and a wireless radio frequency (RF) transmitter. The motion sensor system further includes a receiver unit, which includes a wireless radio frequency receiver and a device for communicating receipt of a signal to the user. When at least one of the motion sensors of at least one of the sensor units detects motion, the wireless radio frequency transmitter transmits a signal to the radio frequency receiver of the receiver unit. The receiver unit then communicates receipt of the signal to the user.

International Classification:

G06T 11/20
G06T 11/60
G06T 15/08
G06T 17/20

Abstract:

The present disclosure is directed to a software tool that facilitates the presentation of a three-dimensional view of a construction project as well as the generation of various types of two-dimensional technical drawings based on this three-dimensional view. In one implementation, the software tool causes a computing device to engage in the following operations. The computing device may receive an indication of a desired clip height of a three-dimensional view at which to generate a two-dimensional technical drawing; identify a subset of meshes that intersect with a two-dimensional plane at the desired clip height; determine respective portions of each mesh that intersect the two-dimensional plane at the desired clip height; compile a dataset that defines the two-dimensional drawing; and render the two-dimensional drawing using the compiled dataset.

Abstract:

An example computing system is configured to (i) receive a request to generate a cross-sectional view of a three-dimensional drawing file, where the cross-sectional view is based on a location of a cross-section line within the three-dimensional drawing file and includes an intersection of two meshes within the three-dimensional drawing file; (ii) generate the cross-sectional view of the three-dimensional drawing file; (iii) add, to the generated cross-sectional view, dimensioning information involving at least one of the two meshes; (iv) generate one or more controls for adjusting a location of the cross-section line within the three-dimensional drawing file; and (v) based on an input indicating a selection of the one or more controls, adjust the location of the cross-section line within the three-dimensional drawing file, update the cross-sectional view based on the adjusted location of the cross-section line, and update the dimensioning information to correspond to the updated cross-sectional view.

International Classification:

G06T 19/00
G06T 11/20
G06T 17/20
G06T 3/00

Abstract:

An example computing system is configured to extract gridline information from a two-dimensional drawing file and determine, for the gridline information, first coordinate information that is based on a first datum. The computing system converts the first coordinate information into second coordinate information that is based on a second datum, where the second coordinate information is used by a three-dimensional drawing file. The computing system is also configured to receive a request to generate a two-dimensional view of the three-dimensional drawing file, where the two-dimensional view includes an intersection of two meshes within the three-dimensional drawing file. The computing device generates the two-dimensional view of the three-dimensional drawing file and adds, to the generated two-dimensional view, (i) at least one gridline corresponding to the gridline information and (ii) dimensioning information involving the at least one gridline and at least one of the two meshes.
