Publication number: 20240111854Abstract: An administered authentication system can authenticate an artificial reality device using an authorization record between a user account and an artificial reality device. In some implementations, the authorization record is created in response to activation of a user account-specific key sent to a user-supplied contact, where an artificial reality device identifier was provided with the user-supplied contact. In other implementations, the authorization record is created in response to activation of a user account-specific key provided to the artificial reality device as a code, where activation of the key includes adding an artificial reality device identifier to a key activation message. In yet other implementations, the authorization record is created in response to an application associated with a user account activating an artificial reality device-specific key, with an artificial reality device identifier, that is provided via the artificial reality device.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 13, 2023Publication date: April 4, 2024Applicant: Meta Platforms Technologies, LLCInventors: Marc KREJCI, David SCOVILLE, Chelsea KLUKAS, Matthew O'neil TERRELL, Tristam Kyle MACDONALD, Justin PENG, Florian LUDWIG

Patent number: 11758389Abstract: Provisioning multiple artificial reality devices can be accomplished through network communications between a device distributor, an administration system, a provisioning device, and the artificial reality devices. The device distributor can provide, to the administration system, a list of artificial reality devices corresponding to a particular organization. A provisioning device can sign into an account on the administration system and receive the list. The provisioning device can then scan for wireless connectivity with the listed artificial reality devices and can make a wireless connection with any artificial reality devices that respond and that are on the list. The provisioning device can then send these devices credentials for a local WiFi network. The artificial reality devices can automatically, upon receipt of the credentials, connect to the administration system to obtain the software update and/or the configuration data.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2022Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Meta Platforms Technologies, LLCInventors: Ahmed Mohamed Eid Amin, Tristam Kyle MacDonald, Yuchen Zheng, Matthew O'neil Terrell
