  • Patent number: 11991057
    Abstract: A route viewing system includes a computing system that receives information associated with one or more routes through a network, and identifies the routes that are associated with at least one illicit user computer used by an illicit user. The computing system then obtains a source location of a source address of the routes and a destination location of a destination address of the routes, and displays the routes on a geographical display at the source location of the source address and the destination location of the destination address of each of the routes.

  • Publication number: 20230229282
    Abstract: A configuration system uses multiple depth cameras to create a volumetric capture space around an electronically controllable industrial machine or system, referred to as a target system. The output of the cameras is processed to create a live 3D model of everything within the space. A remote operator can then navigate within this 3D model, for example from a desktop application, in order to view the target system from various perspectives in a live 3D telepresence. In addition to the live 3D model, a configuration system generates a 3D user interface for programming and configuring machines or target systems within the space in a spatially coherent way. Local operators can interact with the target system using mobile phones which track the target system in augmented reality. Any number of local operators can interact with a remote operator to simultaneously program and configure the target system.

  • Patent number: 11562544
    Abstract: A display of an augmented reality-enabled (AR) device, such as a mobile phone, can be used to transfer a graphical object between a secondary display, such as a computer monitor, that is captured by a camera of the AR device, and AR space, where the object is visible only through the AR interface of the AR device. A graphical object can be selected through the AR interface and, for example, moved around on a canvas of the secondary display by the user of the AR device. When the AR interface is used to move an enabled object near an edge of the canvas or physical boundary of the secondary display, the object as shown on the secondary display can be made to disappear from the secondary display to be replaced by a virtual object shown only on the AR interface in a similar location.
