Patent EP-3629569-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LI AN
IPC: H04N5/232
Filed: 2018-04-25
Abstract: The present invention discloses an image processing method, an apparatus, and a device. The method is applied to a terminal having two specially manufactured cameras, where a first camera and a second camera are specially customized to implement an extra-large aperture in an existing process at the expense of sacrificing definition of an image obtained in a local field-of-view range, so that an image photographed in some regions satisfies a quality requirement of an extra-large aperture. A first sub-image that is of a to-be-photographed object and that is photographed by the first camera is obtained, where a corresponding field-of-view range is [0, θ<sub>1</sub>]; a second sub-image that is of the to-be-photographed object and that is photographed by the second camera is obtained, where a corresponding field-of-view range is [θ<sub>2</sub>, θ<sub>3</sub>], and quality of the first sub-image and the second sub-image satisfies a definition requirement of an extra-large aperture; and the first sub-image and the second sub-image are spliced and fused to obtain a target image that has a larger field-of-view range and satisfies the extra-large aperture.

Title: Multi-channel and bi-directional battery management system
Inventor: MARTIN NATHANIEL
IPC: H02J7/04
Filed: 2018-06-28
Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention include a battery management system that provide a plurality of channels that allow communication between host and clients. This communication may operate in bi-directional modes such that commands from the host and responses from the clients are transmitted clockwise or counter-clockwise around a daisy-chain loop. This architecture provides both a high level of redundancy across multiple channels as well as transmission directions around the loop. The use of multiple channels provides a separation in signal paths akin to the provision of completely separate physical wires, preventing malfunction of spurious operation of devices using one channel from interfering with the normal operation of devices using the other channel. In addition, the signaling architecture allows a host to dynamically transmit commands and receive responses between specific client(s) and host or broadcast communication across all clients.

Abstract: A method of plugging a hydrocarbon well by a through-tubing technique allows the tubing to be left in place. Only a short section is cut, milled, perforated, ruptured and expanded, or combinations thereof. A blocking device is sent downhole to block a bottom of the plug section, and bismuth alloy pellets dropped onto the blocking device. A heater is deployed to melt the bismuth alloy pellets. Next, the alloy liquid is allowed to cool and solidify. During solidification, the alloy expands and fills the section of well to be plugged or a portion thereof. Once primary and secondary barriers are in place, the well can be closed and the Christmas tree removed. A rock-to-rock plug can be set by removing or partially removing the tubular and outer casing, or just inner casing/tubulars can be removed if the exterior cement and casing are of sufficient quality.
