The identified context may include an activity or theme associated with the subject or accessories included in the image. Virtual objects may include accessories and clothing for virtual characters. The augmented reality device may select virtual objects that are similar to identified subjects and accessories, or that are associated with an identified activity or theme of the subject. The augmented reality device applies the virtual objects to a virtual character and renders an augmented reality scene based on the captured image that includes the virtual character. Other embodiments are described and claimed.

Abstract: A content preview of a content item is generated by extracting one or more clips from the content item, each clip is identified using a clipping point, a clip duration, a starting point, which is identified using the clipping point, and an ending point, which is identified using the clip's starting point and clipping duration. By way of a non-limiting example, shot boundaries are identified within the content item, the clip's starting point is identified to be the shot boundary before and closest to the clip's clipping point, the clip's ending point is identified to be the shot boundary after and closest to the clip's starting point plus clip duration. In a case that multiple clips are generated for the content preview, the clips are multiplexed to form the content preview. In a case that the content item comprises different types of content, such as audio and video content, the audio and video content is extracted from the content item for each clip, and synchronized to form the clip.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and techniques for presenting dynamically changing images in a limited rendering environment are described. Example embodiments provide a client display manager that is configured to receive image blocks representing modifications or updates to a dynamically changing image. The client display manager may then layer the received image blocks upon one another, and then cause the layered image blocks to be presented on a display device as a single, composited image. In some embodiments, multiple image blocks may be coalesced or otherwise combined into a single image transmitted to the client display manager, where regions of the single image that are not occupied by the multiple image blocks are transparent.

Abstract: One embodiment of the present invention sets forth a technique for computing line stipple using a parallel rasterizer. Stipple phases are computed in parallel for individual line segments of a line strip during the viewport scale, cull, and clipping operations. The line segments are distributed to multiple parallel rasterizers. Each line segment may be sent to only one of the parallel rasterizers. Update phase messages that include an accumulated stipple phase for a batch of line segments are broadcast to all of the multiple parallel rasterizers. The update phase messages are used by the multiple parallel rasterizers to reconstruct the stipple phases for each line segment of a line strip in order to correctly render stippled line strips and produce a continuous stippled line.

Abstract: A digital magazine server presents content retrieved from various sources to a user. The content may include various images, with images selected by the digital magazine server for presentation to a user along with additional content. Text associated with an image may also be retrieved and presented to the user along with the image. To improve presentation of images with text, the digital magazine server identifies features in an image and identifies regions of the image where text is capable of being presented without obscuring or being obscured by features of the image. The image is modified to present text associated with the image in one or more of the identified images, allowing the text to be presented without detracting from features of the image.
