  • Patent number: 12210691
    Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for using a handheld device such as a ring to manipulate a virtual object being displayed by a wearable device such as eyewear. The path of the virtual object in motion is substantially linked, in time and space, to the course traveled by a hand holding the handheld device. The methods in some implementations include presenting the virtual object on a display at a first location relative to a three-dimensional coordinate system, collecting motion data from an inertial measurement unit on the handheld device, displaying the virtual object at a second location along a path based on the motion data. In some implementations the eyewear includes a projector located and configured to project the display onto a lens assembly.

  • Patent number: 12203758
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for using augmented reality (AR) displays to convey graphical representations of different types of information to a user. The information may be obtained from various sources such as objects and/or features that are dynamically detected by a vehicle or user-generated content. The graphical representations may also be based upon information that may be obtained via the use of crowdsourced AV map data. The graphical representations may be presented in as an AR view in a medium (such as a vehicle windshield) that matches a field of view of a user, thus accurately blending holographic information with the physical objects in the scene.
