Panoptic visualization of elements of a complex system using localization of a point on a physical instance of the complex system

摘要

PANOPTIC VISUALIZATION OF ELEMENTS OF A COMPLEX SYSTEM USING LOCALIZATION OF A POINT ON A PHYSICAL INSTANCE OF THE COMPLEX SYSTEM A system is provided that includes a localization module (100) configured to receive and process range measurements and odometry data relative to a physical instance of a complex system to calculate an unknown location within a coordinate system of the complex system. A search engine (110) configured to identify a document component that depicts an element of the complex system at or within a volume about the location. The document component is from a collection for which at least some components depict elements of the complex system and have associated metadata that includes information reflecting the 3D geometry of at least some depicted elements. A layout engine (106) configured to generate a layout of panoptically arranged document components including the identified document component and other document component(s) identified according to the associated metadata for the identified document component, which further includes information identifying a link between the respective document components. -3 ts' -------- ------
