  • Patent number: 11966701
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes rendering a first output image comprising one or more augmented-reality (AR) objects for displays of an AR rendering device of an AR system associated with a first user. The method further includes accessing sensor signals associated with the first user. The one or more sensor signals may be captured by sensors of the AR system. The method further includes detecting a change in a context of the first user with respect to a real-world environment based on the sensor signals. The method further includes rendering a second output image comprising the AR objects for the displays of the AR rendering device. One or more of the AR objects may be adapted based on the detected change in the context of the first user.

  • Publication number: 20220366170
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method includes accessing from a client system associated with a first user sensor signals captured by sensors of the client system, wherein the client system comprises a plurality of sensors, and wherein the sensors signals are accessed from the sensors based on cascading model policies, wherein each cascading model policy utilizes one or more of a respective cost or relevance associated with each sensor, detecting a change in a context of the first user associated with an activity of the first user based on machine-learning models and the sensor signals, wherein the change in the context of the first user satisfies a trigger condition associated with the activity, and responsive to the detected change in the context of the first user automatically capturing visual data by cameras of the client system.

  • Publication number: 20220129556
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a system includes an automatic speech recognition (ASR) module, a natural-language understanding (NLU) module, a dialog manager, one or more agents, an arbitrator, a delivery system, one or more processors, and a non-transitory memory coupled to the processors comprising instructions executable by the processors, the processors operable when executing the instructions to receive a user input, process the user input using the ASR module, the NLU module, the dialog manager, one or more of the agents, the arbitrator, and the delivery system, and provide a response to the user input.
