US Patent:

8321364, Nov 27, 2012
Filed:

May 14, 2012
Appl. No.:

13/471149
Inventors:

Chaitanya Gharpure - Sunnyvale CA, US
Ryan Hickman - Mountain View CA, US
Assignee:

Google Inc. - Mountain View CA
International Classification:

G06F 17/00
US Classification:

706 45
Abstract:

Examples disclose a method and system for including robots into social networks. The method may be executable to receiving information associated with a first party, wherein the first party is connected to a second party by a social-network. Based on the received information, the method may be executable to query a behavioral database to obtain a behavioral expectation associated with the first party and to compare the behavioral expectation associated with the first party to a stored behavioral expectation associated with the second party. Based on the comparing, the method may be executable to modify the stored behavioral expectation associated with the second party based on the behavioral expectation associated with the first party and provide instructions, which are executable to perform an action associated with the modified behavioral expectation, to a device associated with the second party.

International Classification:

G06F 17/30
US Classification:

707758, 707780, 707E17041
Abstract:

Methods and systems for interacting with multiple three-dimensional (3D) object data models are provided. An example method may involve receiving an annotated template of a first three-dimensional (3D) object data model. The annotated template may be associated with a given category of objects and may include one or more annotations to one or more aspects of an object described by the first 3D object data model. The method may also include determining matching correspondences between the first 3D object data model and a second 3D object data model that is a given object in the given category. For the one or more matching correspondences, an annotation that is associated with a correspondence point of the first 3D object data model may be applied as a call-out to a matching correspondence point of the second 3D object data model.

International Classification:

G09G 5/00
US Classification:

345581, 345582, 345589, 345619
Abstract:

Methods and systems for material refinement for portions of a three-dimensional (3D) object data model are provided. An example method may include rendering a portion of a 3D object data model, and determining a first appearance metric between an appearance of the portion in the rendered view and a two-dimensional (2D) image. For one or more iterations, a modification to material properties associated with the portion may be determined based on the first appearance metric, and another view of the portion of the 3D object data model may be rendered. Also for the one or more iterations, another appearance metric between and an appearance of the portion in the rendered another view and the 2D image may be determined. Additionally, modified material properties for the portion that are associated with a minimum appearance metric of the one or more iterations may be stored for the 3D object data model.

The present application discloses shared robot knowledge bases for use with cloud computing systems. In one embodiment, the cloud computing system collects data from a robot about an object the robot has encountered in its environment, and stores the received data in the shared robot knowledge base. In another embodiment, the cloud computing system sends instructions for interacting with an object to a robot, receives feedback from the robot based on its interaction with the object, and updates data in the shared robot knowledge base based on the feedback. In yet another embodiment, the cloud computing system sends instructions to a robot for executing an application based on information stored in the shared robot knowledge base. In the disclosed embodiments, information in the shared robot knowledge bases is updated based on robot experiences so that any particular robot may benefit from prior experiences of other robots.
