Abstract: A first augmented-reality (AR) device comprises an optical sensor, a geographic location sensor, an orientation sensor, and a display. The first AR device accesses a first geographic location of the first AR device and an orientation of the first AR device and generates a picture taken at the first geographic location of the first AR device and associated with the orientation of the first AR device. The first AR device retrieves, from a server, transportation information from a second AR device in a vehicle. The server assigns the second AR device to the first AR device. The first AR device forms transportation AR content based on the transportation information and displays the transportation AR content in the display based on the first geographic location and orientation of the first AR device, the transportation information, and the picture generated at the first geographic location of the first AR device.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for presenting an AR visualization of an ADAS. A viewing device integrated into a vehicle gathers sensor data from one or more sensors. The sensor data describes a speed and trajectory of the vehicle and a geographic location of a physical object in relation to the vehicle. The viewing device determines, based on the sensor data, that a threat level of the vehicle colliding with the physical object meets or exceeds a threshold threat level. In response to determining that the threat level of the vehicle colliding with the physical object meets or exceeds the threshold threat level, the viewing device determines an automated movement of the vehicle to avoid colliding with the physical object. The viewing device then presents, on a heads up display of the vehicle, virtual content depicting the automated movement, and executes the automated movement.

Abstract: A server for content creation is described. A content creation tool of the server receives, from a first device, a content identifier of a physical object, a virtual object content, and a selection of a template corresponding to an interactive feature for the virtual object content. The content creation tool generates a content dataset based on the content identifier of the physical object, the virtual object content, and the selected template. The content creation tool provides the content dataset to a second device, the second device configured to display the interactive feature corresponding to the selected template.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for presenting spatially translated dimensions of an unseen object. A viewing device captures, with one or more sensors affixed to a vehicle, sensor data describing a distance between the vehicle and a physical object. The viewing device generates, based on the sensor data, a virtual model representing a position of at least a portion of the vehicle in relation to the physical object. The viewing device presents the virtual model on a display in the vehicle. The viewing device captures, with the one or more sensors affixed to the vehicle, updated sensor data describing an updated distance between the vehicle and the physical object, and updates the virtual model presented on the display based on the updated sensor data.

Abstract: Disclosed are systems, methods, and non-transitory computer-readable media for adjusting depth of AR content on HUD. A viewing device identifies, based on sensor data, a physical object visible through a transparent display of the vehicle. The sensor data indicates an initial distance of the physical object from the vehicle. The viewing device gathers virtual content corresponding to the physical object and generates an initial presentation of the virtual content based on the initial distance. The viewing device presents the initial presentation of the virtual content on the transparent display at a position on the transparent display corresponding to the physical object. The viewing device determines, based on updated sensor data, an updated distance of the physical object and generates an updated presentation of the virtual content based on the updated distance. The viewing device presents the updated presentation of the virtual content on the transparent display of the vehicle.

The augmented-reality device detects, using the optical sensor, a first physical display located within a display distance of the augmented-reality device. The first physical display is connected to a computer. The augmented-reality device generates a virtual display configured to operate as a second physical display. The computer controls the second physical display. The augmented-reality device displays the virtual display in the transparent display. The virtual display appears adjacent to the first physical display.

Abstract: A device can determine a distance to an object. The device can use the determined distance to vary a focal length of a first adjustable element so that the first adjustable element directs light from the object into a first waveguide and onto a detector, and forms an image of the object at the detector. The device can produce an image, such as augmented content, on a panel. The device can direct light from the panel into a second waveguide. The device can use the determined distance to vary a focal length of a second adjustable element so that the second adjustable element directs light out of the second waveguide and forms a virtual image of the panel in a plane coincident with the object. The device can operate as an augmented reality headset. The adjustable elements can be phase modulators, or acoustically responsive material with surface acoustic wave transducers.

Abstract: A system and method for data manipulation based on real world object manipulation is described. A device captures an image of a physical object. The image is communicated via a network to a remote server. The remote server includes virtual object data associated with the image and a communication notification for a user of the computing device.

In response to relative movement between the computing device and the physical object caused by the user, the virtual image is modified.

Abstract: This disclosure describes, in part, techniques for storing transaction data at a central service, and techniques for querying information associated with the data from the central service when authorizing payment instruments for transactions. For instance, a central service may receive historical transaction data from multiple payment services that authorize payment instruments for merchants, and then store the historical transaction data in one or more databases. A payment service may then receive a request to authorize a payment instrument for a transaction between a merchant and a customer. Based on receiving the request, the payment service can send the central service a message that includes a query for information associated with historical transaction data corresponding to the payment instrument. In response, the payment service can receive the information from the central service and authorize the payment instrument using the information.

Abstract: A system and method for offloading object detection are described. A server receives first sensor data from a first sensor of an augmented reality (AR) display device. The first sensor data indicates a pose of the AR display device relative to a first reference coordinate system. The server detects a physical object using second sensor data received from a second sensor of the AR display device. The server determines, based on the second sensor data, a pose of the physical object relative to the AR display device. The server then determines the pose of the physical object relative to the first reference coordinate system based on the pose of the physical object relative to the AR display device and the pose of the AR display device relative to the first reference coordinate system.

Abstract: A device has an optical sensor, an inertial sensor, and a hardware processor. The optical sensor generates image data. The inertial sensor generates inertia data. The hardware processor receives an augmented reality (AR) authoring template authored at a client device, generates media content using the image data, and receives a selection of spatial coordinates within a three-dimensional region using the inertia data and the image data. The three-dimensional region is identified in the AR authoring template. The hardware processor further identifies an entry in the AR authoring template corresponding to the media content, places the media content at the selected spatial coordinates in the entry in the AR authoring template, and forms AR content using the media content at the selected spatial coordinates placed in the entry in the AR authoring template.
