Abstract: A fluid-handling cassette (80) comprises at least one of a fluidly actuated diaphragm valve (82) and a fluidly actuated diaphragm pump (84), the actuating fluid being supplied to the cassette (80) through actuation ports (96) located along a thin or narrow edge of the cassette (80). Actuation channels (110) within the cassette lead from the actuation ports (96) to actuation chambers of the valves and pumps in a space between plates (86,90,88) that comprise the cassette (80). The individual plates (86,90,88) have a nominal thickness that is sufficient to provide a rigid ceiling for the actuation channels (110), but sufficiently thin to minimize the overall thickness of the cassette. A plurality of such cassettes (80) can be stacked together or spaced apart from each other to form a cassette assembly, providing for a convenient way to install and remove the cassette assembly from its actuation receptacle. The arrangement allows for an improved way of connecting a complex cassette assembly to its associated pressure distribution manifold without the use of a plurality of flexible connecting tubes between the two.

Title: Fusion of depth images into global volumes
Inventor: PEKELNY YURI
IPC: G06T7/33
Filed: 2019-05-14
Abstract: A method for spatial mapping of an environment comprises receiving a plurality of depth images of an environment via an imaging device, each depth image associated with a local coordinate system. For each local coordinate system, each associated depth image is fused to generate a local volume. Each local volume is then fused into a global volume having a global coordinate system, and then a surface mesh is extracted for the global volume. One or more regions of inconsistency within the global volume are determined and localized to one or more erroneous local volumes. The one or more erroneous local volumes are unfused from the global volume, and then non-erroneous local volumes are re-fused into a corrected global volume. By using a two-step fusion process, regions of inconsistency, such as mirror reflections, may be corrected without requiring reconstruction of the entire global volume.
