Abstract: Systems and methods are presented herein for creating and rendering supplemental content of a selectable product icon of an e-commerce interface in response to user interaction with the selectable product icon. A list of products with a plurality of selectable icons is retrieved from a server based on at least one parameter of a query from an identified first device. The first device is determined to be communicatively coupled to at least one secondary device. Using an artificial intelligence generative engine, supplemental content corresponding to one or more products is generated based on device information of the at least one secondary device. In response to determining that a position of the at least one selectable icon is within a threshold distance of the subset of the list of products displayed or is being displayed, instructions are transmitted to the at least one secondary device to render the supplemental content.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for detecting key words provided by ancillary devices and acquiring virtual objects based on the detected key words. This may be accomplished by a system displaying an augmented reality view to a user and detecting a received message. The system can determine whether a portion of the message corresponds to an augmented reality object. In response to detecting that the portion of the message corresponds to the augmented reality object, the system can display the augmented reality object in the augmented reality view in a first format. The first format can be based on the environment around the user.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and apparatuses are described herein for generating, for presentation at a particular computing device, a display of a live program and determining that the display of the live program at the particular computing device is delayed in relation to a live program stream of the live program. Interactive content related to a particular event that is to occur in the live program stream of the live program may be received, the interactive content enabling selection of a predicted outcome of the particular event. Prior to presentation of the particular event in the display of the live program at the particular computing device, the interactive content may be generated for presentation at the particular computing device, and a selection of the predicted outcome is received. Based on determining an outcome of the particular event, an indication of whether the predicted outcome was correct may be generated for presentation.

Abstract: A personal safe area is determined for extended reality (XR) devices, such as head mounted devices in virtual reality (VR) sessions, sharing a common larger play area. The personal safe areas may be sized based on user size, may have radii centered on the XR device and parallel to a floor, and may move with the XR device as the XR device moves in an immersive reality session. A notification indicating proximity to another XR device may be generated, and the notification may indicate the direction from which the other XR device is approaching. Also contemplated is real time adjusting an XR gameplay, game display or game flow of one or more XR devices to avoid overlap of safe spaces by shifting virtual game objects in a safer direction.

Abstract: Systems and methods for filtering a content item based on a determined sleep state or emotional state of a user are described. A plurality of electronic devices, each having a sensor, or set of sensors, within a predetermined distance of an output device, such as a display device, are detected. Biometric data from the sensors is obtained. The biometric data is associated with a sleep state or emotional state for a user associated with each electronic device. The sleep states vary from being awake to deep sleep. A filter accommodating each determined sleep state is selected and applied to the content item prior to it being displayed on the display device. The content item is displayed on the display device with the applied filter. The filtering process is performed at a processing device or server and not by the display device.

Abstract: Systems and methods for dynamically sharing a media item based on satisfying a condition are disclosed. The methods provide the media item for selection based on selection of a contact or vice versa. The media item may be photo, video, audio, or another type of item in which the contact is included, e.g., the contact is in the photo selected. The methods determine the media item is relevant to the contact based on a facial recognition match. The shared media item, which may be a photo, automatically replaces, for example, a wallpaper or lock screen of the contact. The methods also disclose a shared camera that allows users in a proximity of a first user to opt into a shared group. Once they join/opt in, any photo taken or viewed by the first user is simultaneously displayed on the display of all members of the shared group.

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for updating a representation of a virtual payment card in response to a virtual transaction between a first device (e.g., a user device) and a second device (e.g., a merchant point-of-sale device). The systems and methods may be used to authenticate user identity with an additional layer of security and/or combat phishing attempts intended to dupe users into disclosing confidential profile information. In response to a completed transaction, the second device delivers interactivity data (e.g., animation data, card image data, contextual data, notification sound data, etc.) to the first device, which actuates a distinct representation (e.g., an animation, a graphic image, a notification sound, etc.) of the card image of the virtual payment card used in the completed transaction.
