Inventor: TSAI YUN-TA
IPC: G06T15/20
Filed: 2020-05-04
Abstract: Examples relate to implementations of a neural light transport. A computing system may obtain data indicative of a plurality of UV texture maps and a geometry of an object. Each UV texture map depicts the object from a perspective of a plurality of perspectives. The computing system may train a neural network to learn a light transport function using the data. The light transport function may be a continuous function that specifies how light interacts with the object when the object is viewed from the plurality of perspectives. The computing system may generate an output UV texture map that depicts the object from a synthesized perspective based on an application of the light transport function by the trained neural network.

Abstract: An apparatus and method of storing and transporting, in a dual-use cryogenic storage tank, a cryogenic liquid having a liquefaction temperature. A first pump empties the tank of a first portion of the cryogenic liquid, thereby leaving a second portion of the cryogenic liquid in the cryogenic storage tank. A second portion of the cryogenic liquid is focused at a location on a bottom of the cryogenic storage tank. Using a second pump located at the location, the cryogenic storage tank is emptied of the second portion of the cryogenic liquid, whereby a residual portion of the cryogenic liquid is left therein. Using a focused heating structure, heat may be delivered to the location to raise the temperature of the residual portion above the liquefaction temperature, thereby vaporizing all of the residual portion.

Abstract: The present application provides a temperature control component and a battery pack. The temperature control component includes a temperature control tube. The temperature control tube includes: a first side wall; a second side wall, forming a cavity together with the first side wall. At least part of an outer surface of the first side wall is formed into a curved surface concave toward the second side wall; and/or, at least part of an outer surface of the second side wall is formed into a curved concave surface toward the first side wall surface. When external air flows through the temperature control tube, heat dissipation treatment for batteries could be realized. When the batteries have expanding deformations, two adjacent batteries would press the first side wall and the second side wall, and since at least part of the outer surface of the first side wall is formed into an curved surface, and/or at least part of the outer surface of the second side wall is formed into an curved surface, this curved surface structure increases a contact area between a large surface of a battery and the first side wall and/or the second side wall, and fits with a bulged shape of the large surface of the battery, and thus a force of the temperature control tube on the battery is reduced, and service life of the battery is improved.
