  • Patent number: 12126875
    Abstract: Systems and method of the present disclosure enable immersive experiences associated with live and/or recorded events. The immersive experience is created by generating a 3D model of the user. A presence of the user is detected at the live event via the software application. Upon detecting the presence, the software application controls the user's device to disable a function of the user device during the live event, and determine fusion points in the imagery to identify a particular position at which to integrate the 3D model into the imagery. The 3D model is inserted into the imagery at the particular position so as to integrate the 3D model into the imagery. The live event is recorded for the user to access, using the software application, after the live event, in which the 3D model is inserted into one or more of the same or different fusions points.

  • Patent number: 12100207
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for presenting and annotating virtual content. According to an example method, a virtual object is presented to a first user at a first position via a transmissive display of a wearable device. A first input is received from the first user. In response to receiving the first input, a virtual annotation is presented at a first displacement from the first position. A first data is transmitted to a second user, the first data associated with the virtual annotation and the first displacement. A second input is received from the second user. In response to receiving the second input, the virtual annotation is presented to the first user at a second displacement from the first position. Second data is transmitted to a remote server, the second data associated with the virtual object, the virtual annotation, the second displacement, and the first position.

  • Patent number: 12067664
    Abstract: A pose data file may represent, for each frame of a reference frame sequence, a plurality of two-dimensional skeleton projections on a virtual spherical surface, each of which, for a particular frame, corresponds to a two-dimensional reference pose image of a three-dimensional skeleton of a first human from a viewing angle. A real-time two-dimensional skeleton detector module detects a two-dimensional skeleton of a second human in each received test frame of a test frame sequence. A pose matching module selects a particular two-dimensional skeleton projection of the first human with the minimum mathematical distance from the two-dimensional skeleton of the second human in the current test frame to match the current pose of the second human in the current test frame with a corresponding reference pose image of the pose data file. The particular two-dimensional skeleton projection represents the corresponding reference pose image at the viewing angle.

  • Patent number: 12056806
    Abstract: Systems and methods of the present disclosure relate to fine grained interleaved rendering applications in path tracing for cloud computing environments. For example, a renderer and a rendering process may be employed for ray or path tracing and image-space filtering that interleaves the pixels of a frame into partial image fields and corresponding reduced-resolution images that are individually processed in parallel. Parallelization techniques described herein may allow for high quality rendered frames in less time, thereby reducing latency (or lag, in gaming applications) in high performance applications.
