Patent EP-1435507-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SCHMIDT HAUKE
IPC: G06T15/50
Filed: 2003-11-20
Abstract: A system providing three-dimensional visual navigation for a mobile unit includes
a location calculation unit for calculating an instantaneous position of the mobile unit, a
viewpoint control unit for determining a viewing frustum from the instantaneous position,
a scenegraph manager in communication with at least one geo-database to obtain
geographic object data associated with the viewing frustum and generating a scenegraph
organizing the geographic object data, and a scenegraph renderer which graphically
renders the scenegraph in real time. To enhance depiction, a method for blending images
of different resolutions in the scenegraph reduces abrupt changes as the mobile unit
moves relative to the depicted geographic objects. Data structures for storage and run-time
access of information regarding the geographic object data permit on-demand
loading of the data based on the viewing frustum and allow the navigational system to
dynamically load, on-demand, only those objects that are visible to the user.

Abstract: A tub and shower surround assembly is initially molded as a single molded
component having a waste strip which separates each individual tub and shower
surround portion. The waste strip readily protects the mold and simplifies post molding
operations and assures that each portion will meet final tolerances. Another waste strip
is located between the tub portion and the wall portions to provide for positive draft
between a tub flange which extends about the tub portion and the wall portions.
Positive draft is required to assure proper removal of the mold component from the
mold. The single component provides for finishing operations to be performed prior to
separating the individual components. Since the majority of finishing operations are
performed simultaneously prior to separating the portions, the likelihood of damage to
the portions are reduced and the finish of the individual portions are of greater
consistency.

cube (100) attached to an object to be measured, and detect
the laser beams being reflected on the corner cube (100). A

beams return to a predetermined position of an optical
position sensitive detector (117) of an optical signal processing
unit (103), by which the direction of a reflecting
mirror (112) is controlled so that the laser beams track the
object. The control unit (102) computes the distance, shape,
