  • Patent number: 11863600
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for allowing remote participation in collaborative video review based on joint state data, for a video collaboration session, maintained by a video collaboration service. A user at a participant client device may provide one or more annotations, such as a drawing annotation, for the video data via a client application. The client application transmits computer-readable instructions for re-creating the drawing annotation to the service, which distributes the drawing instructions to the other participant client devices. Using the drawing instructions, the client applications at the client devices are configured to re-create the drawing annotation on the associated video frame displayed at the client devices. The joint state data communicated to client devices for a given session may include co-presence data that efficiently increases communication among the participants in a session.

  • Patent number: 11842042
    Abstract: An information processing apparatus to execute object snapping to arrange a new object on a spread page area so that the new object is automatically aligned with another object arranged on the spread page area includes a determination unit and an execution unit. The determination unit determines a snapping point relating to the object snapping based on an arranged object arranged on the spread page area and the spread page area. The execution unit executes the object snapping in a case where the new object to be newly arranged on the spread page area is arranged in a predetermined range based on the snapping point. In a case where the object snapping is executed, the new object to be arranged on the spread page area is arranged at the snapping point by the object snapping.

  • Patent number: 11836444
    Abstract: The technology disclosed includes a spreadsheet application with a formula building capability that allows users to construct a complex multi-component formula piece by piece, seeing the evaluated result of each component on the way to building the whole formula. It replaces users building complex formulas in a number of separate cells, troubleshooting each part and then having to either recombine the formula parts in one cell via a frequently error borne process or creating a master cell using a hidden set of all the piece parts making it harder to then see and understand what the formula is doing and apply copy paste.

  • Patent number: 11775148
    Abstract: Among other things, techniques are described for monitoring and controlling autonomous vehicles (AVs). As an example, at least one processor determines that a first AV is in a field of view of a user wearing an augmented reality display device, determines first data regarding an operation of the first AV, and causes at least a portion of the first data to be presented to the user using the augmented reality display device. For example, a graphical user interface is presented in the field of view of the user using the augmented reality display device, and at least the portion of the first data is included on the graphical user interface, such that at least the portion of the first data appears to be arranged spatially proximal to the first AV in the field of view of the user.

  • Patent number: 11775161
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for sharing maps in a collaborative environment using classification-based access control. The generation of and dissemination of maps and/or data within such maps can be governed by classification-based access control, where a user's classification level can determine whether or not maps and/or data within those maps can be seen. In some scenarios, a user may wish to reveal the existence of data and/or additional details within a limited geographical area or subset of a map. The systems and methods further provide a geo-fenced view that can dynamically declassify data (to a specified degree). For example, declassified details can be revealed for moving data sets or objects upon entry into the geo-fenced view, and upon existing the geo-fenced view, the moving data sets or objects are reclassified.
