Abstract: A service provider network supports multiple tenants by having a virtual local area network for each enterprise, and a router connected to enterprise networks of the multiple tenants including a virtual router for each enterprise. The virtual router has a distinct routing table for each enterprise, for routing traffic between the desktops hosted on the plurality of host machines and the computer resources on the enterprise networks.

Abstract: An instrumented game controller (such as a firearm simulator), head-mounted display system, with electronic equipment with positional tracking equipment, together with associated software, to create unprecedented immersive virtual reality or augmented reality games, entertainment or “serious” gaming such as training,

Abstract: A method for using Augmented Reality (AR), in conjunction with a real or simulated thermal imager. A primary application is to train emergency first responders. Particularly, the system uses a thermal imaging camera or standard video camera, and tracking system to provide a tracked viewpoint in an AR environment. The augmented portions of the environment can consist of fire, smoke, extinguishing agent, or other emergencies. This allows for inexpensive, flexible, and realistic on-site training of fire fighting, damage control, search and rescue, and other first responder techniques using thermal imaging.

Abstract: A method and system for motion tracking for an object and obtaining high-resolution, fast, and low latency position and orientation information for that object that is globally registered in a large environment. Networked, programmable fiducials are distributed through the area within which high accuracy tracking is desired. A high-resolution local tracking method is processed by the object tracking computer. The fiducials gather information from an environmental coordinate system (such as GPS) and communicate with the object tracking computer to register the high-resolution local tracking area to the global environment. The result is dramatically reduced setup and calibration of the system, as well as high-resolution, low latency global tracking information which enables highly demanding applications, such as head-mounted augmented reality (AR) with geographical information overlay.

Abstract: The invention is a method for displaying otherwise unseen objects and other data using augmented reality (the mixing of real view with computer generated imagery). The method uses image parameters (such as field of view, focus, aperture, and shading) that affect the real world view as captured by a camera. The camera may have a motorized camera mount that can report the position of a camera on that mount back to a computer. With knowledge of where the camera is looking and the additional image parameters, the computer can precisely overlay computer-generated imagery onto the video image produced by the camera such that the appearance of computer-generated imagery is consistent with the image of the real world. The method may be used to present to a user such items as existing weather conditions, hazards, or other data, and presents this information to the user by combining the computer generated images with the user's real environment.

Abstract: A wireless or extra-long-tethered augmented reality (AR) system and method, where the user wears some or all of the equipment necessary to perform the simulation. Various arrangements are presented that can be selected based on the needs of the system, such as the number of users and type of tracking equipment. Most of the discussion is optimized to a firefighter training system, but the disclosure is applicable to most any other application of wireless AR.
