  • Patent number: 11698708
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described that enable augmented reality, virtual reality, and/or other content to be associated with precise geo-spatial locations in a physical environment. A model of a physical environment is accessed and a three dimensional mesh definition comprising a plurality of mesh cells is received where the mesh is associated with the physical environment. A given mesh cell is associated with a logical address. Augmented reality, virtual reality, and/or other content may be associated with a given mesh cell. Tracking data corresponding to movement of a user in the physical environment is received. The tracking data may be compared with mesh cell locations to identify matching mesh cells. Addresses associated with the matching mesh cells are used to identify associated content.

  • Patent number: 11694658
    Abstract: In an exemplary process, a virtual object is displayed in an enhanced reality setting. A request to transfer the virtual object is received, wherein a determination is made whether a set of one or more virtual object transfer criteria is satisfied. Movement of the virtual object away from an avatar is displayed in accordance with a determination that the set of one or more virtual object transfer criteria is satisfied. Displaying movement includes determining whether a size of the virtual object satisfies a set of one or more size criteria. In accordance with a determination that the size of the virtual object satisfies the set of one or more size criteria, a reduction in the size of the virtual object is displayed. In accordance with a determination that the size of the virtual object does not satisfy the set of one or more size criteria, displaying of a reduction in the size of the virtual object is foregone.

  • Patent number: 11682146
    Abstract: Vector object path segment editing techniques are described that retain edibility of a path while supporting editing of a segment included within the path, individually and separately, without editing other segments of path. A vector object editing module first retrieves information on segments included in a path of a vector object. The vector object editing module then renders a selected segment separately from an adjacent segment based on the selected segment model. An editing operation is then applied to the selected segment as specified via the user interface, e.g., to change color, width, or other display characteristic. The vector object editing module then generates a joint between the edited segment and the adjacent segment to provide a transition between the segments that mimics inclusion as a single path that contains those segments.

  • Patent number: 11640694
    Abstract: Embodiments include systems and methods for creation of a 3D mesh from a video stream or a sequence of frames. A sparse point cloud is first created from the video stream, which is then densified per frame by comparison with spatially proximate frames. A 3D mesh is then created from the densified depth maps, and the mesh is textured by projecting the images from the video stream or sequence of frames onto the mesh. Metric scale of the depth maps may be estimated where direct measurements are not able to be measured or calculated using a machine learning depth estimation network.
