Appl. No.:
17/261717
Inventors:
- St Paul MN, US
Benjamin D. Zimmer - Hudson WI, US
Guruprasad Somasundaram - Woodbury MN, US
Alexandra R. Cunliffe - St. Paul MN, US
Brian J. Stankiewicz - Mahtomedi MN, US

Jonathan D. Gandrud - Woodbury MN, US
International Classification:
A61C 7/00
G06N 7/00
G06N 20/10
Abstract:
An automated method for generating a final setup for orthodontic treatment. The method includes receiving a digital 3D model of teeth in an initial state. The method computes a scoring function based upon metrics related to the initial state to generate a corresponding score, perturbs the state of the teeth through translations and rotations of a tooth or set of teeth to generate a perturbed state of the teeth, and updates the state of the teeth based upon the score and the perturbed state of the teeth to generate one or more final setups representing a final state of the teeth after the orthodontic treatment.

US Patent:
20210209865, Jul 8, 2021
Filed:
May 15, 2019
Appl. No.:
17/250080
Inventors:
- St. Paul MN, US
Caroline M. Ylitalo - Stillwater MN, US
Guruprasad Somasundaram - Woodbury MN, US
Benjamin D. Zimmer - Hudson WI, US
Jonathan D. Gandrud - Woodbury MN, US
Claire R. Donoghue - Reading, GB
International Classification:
G06T 19/20
G06K 9/62
Abstract:
A system and method of selecting personal protection equipment (PPE) for a worker. The system identifies sets of PPEs and simulates a fitting of the identified PPE sets to the worker. Fitting includes, for each of the identified PPE sets, selecting a three-dimensional computer model for each article of the PPE set, placing the computer model of each of the PPE articles of the PPE set being fitted on a computer model representing the worker, identifying collisions between the computer models as placed, and taking an action based on the identified collisions.

US Patent:
20210142641, May 13, 2021
Filed:
Jun 14, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/621708
Inventors:
- Tel Aviv, IL
Guruprasad SOMASUNDARAM - Minneapolis MN, US
Arash SANGARI - St. Paul MN, US
Robert W. SHANNON - St. Roseville MN, US
David Solomon SEGAL - Palm Harbor FL, US

Nicholas Andrew ASENDORF - St. Paul MN, US
Deepti PACHAURI - St. Paul MN, US
Tyler William OLSON - St. Paul MN, US
International Classification:
G08B 21/02
Abstract:
A body-worn tracking device (BWTD) includes a global navigation satellite system (GNSS) device, at least one motion sensor, at least one processor, and at least one memory device. The at least one memory device includes instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to determine, based on data generated by the at least one motion sensor, a net distance between the last known location of the BWTD and a current location of the BWTD. The instructions further cause the at least one processor to determine, based on the net distance, whether the BWTD is within a bounded area that includes the last known location; and responsive to determining that BWTD is not within the bounded area, output an indication that the BWTD is not within the bounded area.

International Classification:
G08B 21/02
Abstract:
Example techniques of this disclosure are directed determining one or more values that represent a monitoring attribute for one or more body-worn tracking devices (BWTDs). In some instances, the techniques include determining a compliance metric that represents a level of compliance for at least one offender. That is, the compliance metric may be a quantitative value that represents whether a user wearing BWTD is complying with established rules or desired behaviors.

Abstract:
Methods for estimating and predicting tooth wear based upon a single 3D digital model of teeth. The 3D digital model is segmented to identify individual teeth within the model. A digital model of a tooth is selected from the segmented model, and its original shape is predicted. The digital model is compared with the predicted original shape to estimate wear areas. A mapping function based upon values relating to tooth wear can also be applied to the selected digital model to predict wear of the tooth.
