Abstract: An augmented reality viewing system is described. A local coordinate frame of local content is transformed to a world coordinate frame. A further transformation is made to a head coordinate frame and a further transformation is made to a camera coordinate frame that includes all pupil positions of an eye. One or more users may interact in separate sessions with a viewing system. If a canonical map is available, the earlier map is downloaded onto a viewing device of a user. The viewing device then generates another map and localizes the subsequent map to the canonical map.

Abstract: Devices and techniques are generally described for multi-band projection of image data. In various examples, image data may be identified. In some examples, first image data of a first frequency may be generated from the image data. In some examples, second image data of a second frequency may be generated from the image data. In various examples, the first frequency may be higher than the second frequency. In some examples, a first image may be projected onto a projection surface using a raster projector. In an example, the first image may correspond to the first image data. In further examples, a second image may be projected onto the projection surface overlaying the first image. In various other examples, projecting the second image onto the projection surface may be performed using a lamp-based projector. In some examples, the second image may correspond to the second image data.

Abstract: A cross reality system that provides an immersive user experience by storing persistent spatial information about the physical world that one or multiple user devices can access to determine position within the physical world and that applications can access to specify the position of virtual objects within the physical world. Persistent spatial information enables users to have a shared virtual, as well as physical, experience when interacting with the cross reality system. Further, persistent spatial information may be used in maps of the physical world, enabling one or multiple devices to access and localize into previously stored maps, reducing the need to map a physical space before using the cross reality system in it. Persistent spatial information may be stored as persistent coordinate frames, which may include a transformation relative to a reference orientation and information derived from images in a location corresponding to the persistent coordinate frame.

Abstract: An apparatus configured to be worn on a head of a user, includes: a screen configured to present graphics to the user; a camera system configured to view an environment in which the user is located; and a processing unit configured to determine a map based at least in part on output(s) from the camera system, wherein the map is configured for use by the processing unit to localize the user with respect to the environment; wherein the processing unit of the apparatus is also configured to obtain a metric indicating a likelihood of success to localize the user using the map, and wherein the processing unit is configured to obtain the metric by computing the metric or by receiving the metric.

Abstract: A system includes a fit test fixture. A first air bladder is connected to the support structure, and a second air bladder is connected to the support structure. The system includes a scanner configured to generate a three-dimensional model of a clothing item positioned over at least a portion of the fit test fixture, and a controller. The controller is configured to cause an air compressor to inflate the first air bladder and the second air bladder, and store the three-dimensional model of the clothing item in a database. The three-dimensional model depicts the clothing item at least partially inhabited by the first air bladder and the second air bladder. A processor is configured to generate a rendering depicting the three-dimensional model of the clothing item on a three-dimensional model of the consumer.
