Patent number: 11487353Abstract: In certain embodiments, a sensing and tracking system detects objects, such as user input devices or peripherals, and user interactions with them. A representation of the objects and user interactions are then injected into the virtual reality environment. The representation can be an actual reality, augmented reality, virtual representation or any combination. For example, an actual keyboard can be injected, but with the keys pressed being enlarged and lighted.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2020Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Stephen Harvey, Denis O'Keeffe, Andreas Connellan, Damien O'Sullivan, Aidan Kehoe, Noirin Curran, Thomas Rouvinez, Mario Gutierrez, Olivier Riviere, Remy Zimmermann, Mathieu Meisser, Dennin Onorio, Ciaran Trotman, Pierce O'Bradaigh, Marcel Twohig, Padraig Murphy, Jerry Ahern

Patent number: 11182962Abstract: Methods and systems for providing a mixed reality (MR) interaction are provided. In one example, the method comprises: capturing a first image of a user's appendage and a physical peripheral input device, wherein the user's appendage covers at least a part of the physical peripheral input device; performing a segmentation of the first image into a first region of pixels corresponding to the user's appendage, wherein a second region of pixels corresponds to the physical peripheral input device; generating a composite image from the first image based on rendering, in place of the second region of pixels, pixels representing a virtual peripheral input device, such that the virtual peripheral input device appears in the composite image as at a same spatial location as the physical peripheral input device and covered at least partially by the user's appendage; and displaying the composite image to the user.Type: GrantFiled: February 4, 2019Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Mario Gutierrez, Thomas Rouvinez, Sidney Bovet, Helmut Grabner, Mathieu Meisser

Patent number: 11112856Abstract: In an embodiment there is provided a user interface device for interfacing a user with a computer, the computer comprising at least one processor to generate instructions for display of a graphical environment of a virtual reality simulation. The user interface device includes a sensor for detecting activation and/or a sensor for detecting proximity of a body part of the user (e.g., hand). At least partially based on detection by one of these sensors, a transition between virtual reality states is triggered.Type: GrantFiled: May 23, 2019Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Thomas Rouvinez, Aidan Kehoe, Mario Gutierrez, Vincent Jalil, Damien O'Sullivan, Mathieu Meisser, Nicolas Ramond, Regis Croisonnier
