  • Patent number: 12288285
    Abstract: Three-dimensional data can be synchronized between a first electronic device and a second electronic device. A content creation application may be running on the first electronic device and may utilize a data file describing a three-dimensional content item. A two-dimensional representation of the content item may be displayed on the first electronic device. A user may request to preview the two-dimensional representation of the content item in three-dimensions. The first electronic device may initiate a data transfer with the second electronic device. The three-dimensional data of the data file may be transferred, via a communication link, from the content creation of the first electronic device to a three-dimensional graphic rendering application at the second electronic device. The three-dimensional graphic rendering application may generate a preview of the content item in three-dimensions based on the received three-dimensional data.

  • Publication number: 20240231559
    Abstract: An exemplary process presents a first set of views having a first set of options for using content in a 3D environment, wherein the first set of views are provided from a first set of viewpoints, determines to present a second set of for using the content in the 3D environment based on user interaction data, wherein the second set of options includes fewer options than the first set of options and in accordance with determining to present the second set of options, presents a second set of views including the second set of options, wherein the second set of views are provided from a second set of viewpoints in the 3D environment.

  • Publication number: 20210034319
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that enable two or more devices to simultaneously view or edit the same 3D model in the same or different settings/viewing modes (e.g., monoscopically, stereoscopically, in SR, etc.). In an example, one or more users are able to use different devices to interact in the same setting to view or edit the same 3D model using different views from different viewpoints. The devices can each display different views from different viewpoints of the same 3D model and, as changes are made to the 3D model, consistency of the views on the devices is maintained.
