Abstract: Systems and methods of digital assistants in an augmented reality environment and local determination of virtual object placement are disclosed. Apparatuses of single or multi-directional lens as portals between a physical world and a digital world component of the augmented reality environment are also disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, to present, a digital assistant to the user. Responsive to receiving a command, the digital assistant can trigger an operation on the augmented reality environment such that the user is able to engage with the augmented reality environment via the user interface. The method can further include training the digital assistant to learn from the activities occurring in the augmented reality environment and/or behaviors of the user from the action or the interaction with the real world environment.
Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatuses of virtual object control of a physical device and/or physical device control of a virtual object are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, to present a depiction of a virtual object in the augmented reality environment. In the method, one or more functions of the virtual object accessible in the augmented reality environment are used for control of a physical device.
Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatuses to generate a Fingerprint of a Physical Location for Placement of Virtual Objects are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, to generate a fingerprint of the physical location using the location metadata including one or more of, the geometric features and the physical objects. The method can further include tracking device movement in the physical location to determine a position of the device relative to the fingerprint of the physical location and rendering or placing the virtual object in the physical location based on the position of the device and the fingerprint of the physical location.

Abstract: Systems and methods of shareable virtual objects and virtual objects as message objects to facilitate communications sessions in an augmented reality environment are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, to facilitate sharing of an object in an augmented reality environment of a real world environment. The method can further include world-locking the object or user-locking the object in accordance with a request of the object to be posted in the augmented reality environment for a given user. In world-locking the object, the object is enabled to be interacted with by the given user if and when the given user is at or in the vicinity of the given location. In user-locking the object, the object is enabled to be interacted with by the given user regardless of where the given user is physically located in the real world environment.
Abstract: Systems, methods and apparatuses to Facilitate Gradual or Instantaneous Adjustment in Levels of Perceptibility of Virtual Objects or Reality Object in a Digital Scene are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, to increase a first perceptibility level of a virtual object or decrease a second perceptibility level of a reality object to increase the virtualness level of the scene.
Abstract: Systems, Methods and Apparatuses of Seamless Integration of Augmented, Alternate, Virtual, and/or Mixed Realities with Physical Realities for Enhancement of Web, Mobile and/or Other Digital Experiences are disclosed. In one aspect, embodiments of the present disclosure include a method, which may be implemented on a system, to create an alternate reality environment of a physical location. The alternate reality environment can include: a representation of a real environment associated with the physical location and/or the virtual object. Moreover, in the alternate reality environment, one or more of, perceptibility of the virtual object and perceptibility of the representation of the real environment is configurable or adjustable by the human user.
