Abstract A system for providing an interface that allows access to a system used to collect oil and gas pipeline integrity related data sets, inspection and survey reports to process the integrity status and to determine the remaining lifetime of each point of a pipeline on a sophisticated mapping platform. This system allows a user to access databases to access information needed for all pipeline integrity analysis. The system integrates the databases to allow easy access and centralized storage of all needed information for pipeline integrity assessment to deploy the results in an augmented reality platform. The system includes artificial intelligence to compare two or more consecutive In-Line Inspection reports to determine the internal and external corrosion rate in the oil and gas pipeline.

Techniques for manufacturing a light field print using a printing press. The techniques include: identifying at least one characteristic of the printing press at least in part by printing at least one calibration pattern; obtaining content to be rendered using the light field print, the content comprising multiple scene views; generating, based at least in part on the content and the at least one characteristic of the printing press, a front target pattern and a back target pattern; and using the printing press to: print the front target pattern on a first side of a substrate; and print the back target pattern on a second side of the substrate.

Abstract Injection molds can be fabricated using 3D printing technology. An inverse computer aided design (“CAD”) file may be generated based upon a visualization file that represents a 3D object. The inverse CAD file can then be altered based upon various parameters associated with the 3D object. One or more injection molds can be fabricated using a 3D printer based on the altered inverse CAD file.

Techniques for controlling optical behavior of a multi-view display apparatus comprising a first layer comprising first optical elements and a second layer comprising second optical elements. The techniques include obtaining a plurality of scene views; obtaining information specifying a model of the multi-view display apparatus; obtaining information specifying at least one blurring transformation; and generating actuation signals for controlling the multi-view display apparatus to concurrently display a plurality of display views corresponding to the plurality of scene views, the actuation signals comprising first actuation signals for controlling the first optical elements and second actuation signals for controlling the second optical elements, the generating comprising: generating the first actuation signals and the second actuation signals based, at least in part, on the plurality of scene views, the information specifying the model of the multi-view display apparatus, and the information specifying the at least one blurring transformation.
