  • Patent number: 11393197
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable storage media for quantifying augmented reality interaction. An exemplary system can be configured to capture, via a camera of a mobile computing device, a video feed, and extract, via a processor of the mobile computing device, an image from the video feed. The system can then determine, via the processor, that the image corresponds to a stored image in a plurality of stored images stored in an image database, resulting in a determination, and retrieve, via the processor and based on the determination, interactive content associated with the stored image. The system can then display, via a display of the mobile computing device, the interactive content as an augmented reality overlay.

  • Patent number: 10820157
    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for collocation detection. In accordance with one implementation, a method is provided for collocation detection. The method includes obtaining a first object observation that includes a first object identifier, a first observation time, and a first observation location. The method also includes obtaining a second object observation that includes a second object identifier, a second observation time, and a second observation location. In addition, the method includes associating the first observation with a first area on a map, associating the second observation with a second area on the map, and determining whether a potential meeting occurred between objects associated with the first object identifier and the second object identifier based on the first and second observation times, and the first and second areas.

  • Patent number: 10545655
    Abstract: A context-sensitive viewing system is disclosed in which various data visualizations, also referred to a contextual views, of a common set of data may be viewed by a user on an electronic device. Data in the system may comprise data objects and associated properties and/or metadata, and may be stored in one or more electronic data stores. As a user of the system views and manipulates a first contextual view of a set of data objects, one or more other contextual views of the same set of data objects may be updated accordingly. Updates to the secondary contextual views may, in various embodiments, happen real-time. Further, the secondary contextual views may be visible to the user simultaneously with the primary contextual view. A user may switch from one view to another, and may manipulate data in any view, resulting in updates in the other views.

  • Publication number: 20180150213
    Abstract: A context-sensitive viewing system is disclosed in which various data visualizations, also referred to a contextual views, of a common set of data may be viewed by a user on an electronic device. Data in the system may comprise data objects and associated properties and/or metadata, and may be stored in one or more electronic data stores. As a user of the system views and manipulates a first contextual view of a set of data objects, one or more other contextual views of the same set of data objects may be updated accordingly. Updates to the secondary contextual views may, in various embodiments, happen real-time. Further, the secondary contextual views may be visible to the user simultaneously with the primary contextual view. A user may switch from one view to another, and may manipulate data in any view, resulting in updates in the other views.
