Abstract: Systems and methods for interactions between an autonomous vehicle and one or more external observers include virtual models of drivers the autonomous vehicle. The virtual models may be generated by the autonomous vehicle and displayed to one or more external observers, and in some cases using devices worn by the external observers. The virtual models may facilitate interactions between the external observers and the autonomous vehicle using gestures or other visual cues. The virtual models may be encrypted with characteristics of an external observer, such as the external observer's face image, iris, or other representative features. Multiple virtual models for multiple external observers may be simultaneously used for multiple communications while preventing interference due to possible overlap of the multiple virtual models.

Abstract: A method by a wearable device is described. The method includes receiving geometric information from a controller. The geometric information includes a point cloud and a key frame of the controller. The method also includes receiving first six degree of freedom (6DoF) pose information from the controller. The method further includes synchronizing a coordinate system of the wearable device with a coordinate system of the controller based on the point cloud and the key frame of the controller. The method additionally includes rendering content in an application based on the first 6DoF pose information.

Abstract: Various aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication. In some aspects, an application server may receive information associated with reception quality at multiple locations of a physical environment. The application server may provide data for presenting a virtual environment by a UE in the physical environment, the data having one or more parameters based at least in part on a reception quality at a location associated with the UE in the physical environment. Numerous other aspects are described.

Abstract: Systems, apparatuses (or devices), methods, and computer-readable media are provided for generating virtual content. For example, a device (e.g., an extended reality device) can obtain an image of a scene of a real-world environment, wherein the real-world environment is viewable through a display of the extended reality device as virtual content is displayed by the display. The device can detect at least a part of a physical hand of a user in the image. The device can generate a virtual keyboard based on detecting at least the part of the physical hand. The device can determine a position for the virtual keyboard on the display of the extended reality device relative to at least the part of the physical hand. The device can display the virtual keyboard at the position on the display.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for generating virtual private spaces for extended reality (XR) experiences. An example method can include initiating a virtual session for presenting virtual content and identifying, for the virtual session, a portion of a physical space for use as a virtual private space for presenting at least a portion of the virtual content. The method can include outputting boundary information defining a boundary of the virtual private space, and generate at least the portion of the virtual content for the virtual private space. At least the portion of the virtual content is viewable in the virtual private space by one or more authorized users of the virtual session and is not viewable by one or more unauthorized users.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and non-transitory media are provided for capturing a region of interest (ROI) with a multi-camera system. An example method can include initializing image sensors of an electronic device, each image sensor being initialized in a lower-power mode having a lower power consumption than a higher-power mode supported by one or more of the image sensors; obtaining images captured by the image sensors in the lower-power mode; determining, based on the images, that an ROI in a scene is within a field-of-view (FOV) of a first image sensor from the image sensors; based on determining that the ROI is within the FOV of the first image sensor, decreasing the lower-power mode of one or more second image sensors to a power-off mode or an additional lower-power mode having a lower power consumption than the lower-power mode; and capturing, using the first image sensor, an image of the ROI.
