ENGINEERING COMPONENTS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20230140028 titled 'ENGINEERING COMPONENTS

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method of enhancing the scan or design of an engineering component using a computer. Here are the key points:

  • Obtaining a scan or design of an engineering component and inputting it into a computer.
  • Providing at least one physical parameter related to the design or scan as input to the computer.
  • Converting the input parameter into a histogram or glyph that represents its value.
  • Embedding the histogram or glyph into the scan or design of the engineering component.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Engineering design: This method can be used to enhance the visual representation of engineering components, making it easier for engineers to analyze and modify designs.
  • Quality control: By embedding physical parameters into the scan or design, it becomes possible to visually identify and analyze potential issues or deviations from specifications.
  • Documentation: The enhanced scans or designs can be used for documentation purposes, providing a more comprehensive representation of the engineering components.

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Lack of visual representation: Traditional scans or designs may not provide a clear visual representation of physical parameters. This method solves this problem by converting the parameters into histograms or glyphs.
  • Difficulty in analysis: Engineers may struggle to analyze complex designs or scans. The enhanced visual representation helps in better understanding and analysis of the components.

Benefits of this technology:

  • Improved analysis: The enhanced visual representation allows for easier analysis and identification of potential issues or improvements.
  • Enhanced documentation: The embedded histograms or glyphs provide a more comprehensive documentation of the physical parameters related to the engineering component.
  • Efficient design modification: With a clearer visual representation, engineers can make more informed decisions and modifications to the design.


Original Abstract Submitted

a method of enhancing a scan or design of an engineering component, including: obtaining a scan or a design of an engineering component and inputting the scan or design of the component into a computer, providing an input into the computer of at least one physical parameter relating to the design or the scan of the image, converting the input parameter into a histogram and/or a glyph that represents the value of the physical parameter, and embedding the histogram or glyph into the scan or design of the engineering component. a computer implemented method of designing a component uses a conditional generative adversarial network.
