Abstract: In one embodiment, a computing system may render an image to be output by a display which sequentially outputs pixel rows of the image at a row-to-row velocity. The system may predict, based on eye-tracking data, an eye-motion velocity within a timeframe for displaying the image. The system may determine a predicted retina projection displacement for each pixel row based on the row-to-row velocity and eye-motion velocity. The system may determine a first correction displacement for each pixel row based on the predicted retina projection displacement. The system may determine a cumulative correction displacement based on the first correction displacement. The system may determine, for each pixel row, a second correction displacement based on the first correction displacement of that pixel row and the cumulative correction displacement. The system may warp each pixel row using the associated second correction displacement and output the warped pixel rows using the display.

Abstract: An augmented reality (AR) system for production-tuning of parameters for a visual tracking robotic picking system. The robotic picking system includes one or more robots configured to pick randomly-placed and randomly-oriented parts off a conveyor belt and place the parts in an available position, either on a second moving conveyor belt or on a stationary device such as a pallet. A visual tracking system identifies position and orientation of the parts on the feed conveyor. The AR system allows picking system tuning parameters including upstream, discard and downstream boundary locations to be visualized and controlled, real-time robot pick/place operations to be viewed with virtual boundaries, and system performance parameters such as part throughput rate and part allocation by robot to be viewed. The AR system also allows virtual parts to be used in simulations, either instead of or in addition to real parts.

Abstract: A system to provide a multi-image head up display (HUD) in a vehicle includes a fixed mirror to project a far-plane image at a first distance from an occupant of the vehicle. Control of a position of display of the far-plane image is based on an eye height position of the occupant. The system also includes a rotatable mirror to project a near-plane image at a second distance, closer than the first distance, from the occupant. Control of a position of display of the near-plane image is based on a manual adjustment of a rotational angle of the rotatable mirror by the occupant. Processing circuitry automatically adjusts the position of display of the far-plane image based on inferring the eye height position of the occupant from the rotational angle of the rotatable mirror that controls the display of the near-plane image.

Abstract: This disclosure describes various examples of a system which uses a multi-bank, multi-port shared memory system that may be implemented as part of a system on a chip. The shared memory system may have particular applicability in the context of an artificial reality system, and may be designed to have distributed or varied latency for one or more memory banks and/or one or more components or subsystems within the system on a chip. The described shared memory system may be logically a single entity, but physically may have multiple memory banks, each accessible by any of a number of components or subsystems. In some examples, the memory system may enable concurrent, common, and/or shared access to memory without requiring, in some situations, full locking or arbitration.

The system may adjust pixel values of the current frame based at least on the third array of scaling factors. The system may output the current frame with the adjusted pixel values to a display.
