  • Patent number: 11948256
    Abstract: Examples of the disclosure describe systems and methods for generating and displaying a virtual companion. In an example method, a first input from an environment of a user is received at a first time via a first sensor on a head-wearable device. An occurrence of an event in the environment is determined based on the first input. A second input from the user is received via a second sensor on the head-wearable device, and an emotional reaction of the user is identified based on the second input. An association is determined between the emotional reaction and the event. A view of the environment is presented at a second time later than the first time via a see-through display of the head-wearable device. A stimulus is presented at the second time via a virtual companion displayed via the see-through display, wherein the stimulus is determined based on the determined association between the emotional reaction and the event.

  • Publication number: 20230258942
    Abstract: A user may interact and view virtual elements such as avatars and objects and/or real world elements in three-dimensional space in an augmented reality (AR) session. The system may allow one or more spectators to view from a stationary or dynamic camera a third person view of the users AR session. The third person view may be synchronized with the user view and the virtual elements of the user view may be composited onto the third person view.

  • Publication number: 20210215536
    Abstract: A method for characterizing a digital color camera includes, for each of three primary colors used in a field sequential color virtual image, determining a conversion model for each color using RGB values and the color-measurement values. For each primary color, the method includes illuminating a display device using an input light beam of a primary color having spectral properties representative of a light beam in a virtual image in a wearable device. The method includes capturing, with the digital color camera, an image of the display device, and determining, from the image, RGB values for each primary color. The method includes capturing, with a color-measurement device, a color-measurement value associated with each corresponding primary color at the display device, thereby acquiring a color-measurement value in an absolute color space. A conversion model for each color is determined using RGB values and the color-measurement values.
