Abstract: Systems and methods for utilizing living entities as markers for virtual content in an augmented reality environment are discussed herein. The virtual content may comprise objects, surfaces, textures, effects, and/or other content visibly manifested in views of the augmented reality environment. In some implementations, the virtual content may comprise an avatar and/or other full- or partial-body virtual content object depicted based on the living entity. A living entity and multiple linkage points for the living entity may be detected within the field of view of a user. Based on the arrangement of the linkage points, virtual content may be rendered and appear superimposed over or in conjunction with a view of the living entity in the augmented reality environment. In some implementations, the rendering of virtual content in the augmented reality environment may be triggered by the arrangement of the multiple linkage points for a given living entity.

Abstract: A method of directly modifying ray tracing samples generated by a ray tracing renderer. Modifications to samples may be made after rendering and before rasterizing, in contrast to typical compositing workflows that manipulate pixels of a rasterized image. Modifications may be based on user input. Rasterization may be performed afterwards at any desired resolutions, for example to adapt to different displays. Samples may be tagged with object identities, facilitating object selection without the need for object masks. Pseudo-random ray patterns typically used by renderers may be supported directly. Many operations may be performed directly on samples, including color changes, object repositioning, and merging of samples from different scenes. Secure samples with scrambled ray directions may be modified directly.

Abstract: One embodiment of the invention is a slicing engine that generates two or more slices of a virtual 3D model given a slice plane. The slicing engine then determines connection points on each of the slices that indicate how the 3D model is to be reconnected by the user when the 3D model is fabricated. The slicing engine also determines an optimized layout for the various slices of the 3D model on fabrication material for minimal use of the material. The user is then able to “print” the layout on the fabrication material via 3D printers, and connect the various printed slices according to the connection points to build a physical representation of the 3D model.

Abstract: Secure rendering system that creates ray tracing samples with obfuscated positions, so that images can only be viewed by an authorized consumer able to recover the sample positions. Obfuscation of ray directions is integrated into the rendering process, for example by incorporating encryption into a lens shader. The rendering system never stores or transmits an image without obfuscating positions, so even the rendering system cannot see the image it is rendering. Embodiments may use public key cryptography, so that encryption of sample positions is done with a public key, and only the owner of the secret private key can view the rendered image. Since keys are asymmetric, the rendering system cannot decrypt the obfuscated samples. Piracy of rendered images is therefore mitigated. Some compositing operations may be performed on the secure rendering output prior to decrypting sample positions; for example, colors may be modified globally or for selected objects.

Abstract: An electronic device detects and recovers from fault conditions while tracking its motion and building a map of its environment. A front-end motion tracking module detects fault conditions while tracking motion over time and provides mapping data to a back-end mapping module. The front-end motion tracking module indicates to the back-end mapping module when a fault condition has been detected and when the fault condition is no longer detected. The back-end mapping module generates maps from the mapping data and merges the maps to build a three-dimensional representation of the environment. The back-end mapping module buffers or discards any mapping data received from the front-end motion tracking module during the existence of a fault condition. The back-end mapping module merges the maps generated based on mapping data received before and after the fault condition and adds the merged maps to the three-dimensional representation of the environment.

Abstract: The invention features techniques for presenting more than one perspective views to each eye of the viewer, through generating viewing zones with an interval smaller than the diameter of the viewer's pupil by display panel/grating pair/pairs. In the first method, the arraying direction of the small-interval viewing zones is designed having an appropriate small inclination angle to the line connecting the viewer's two pupils, so as to cover each eye with more than one viewing zones which are different with each other. In the extreme case, 4 small-interval viewing zones can implement 3D display with two views for each eye. This is absolutely different with existing grating-based 3D display, which aligns viewing zones along the direction with a small angle (<?/4) to the line connecting the viewer's two pupils and thus a rather large number of small-interval viewing zone is needed for covering the viewer's two eyes.
