Abstract: Collaborative sessions in which access to a collaborative object and added virtual content is selectively provided to participants/users. In one example of the collaborative session, a participant crops media content by use of a hand gesture to produce an image segment that can be associated to the collaborative object. The hand gesture resembles a pair of scissors and the camera and processor of the client device track a path of the hand gesture to identify an object within a displayed image to create virtual content of the identified object. The virtual content created by the hand gesture is then associated to the collaborative object.

Abstract: Collaborative sessions in which access to added virtual content is selectively made available to participants/users. A participant (the host) creates a new session and invites participants to join. The invited participants receive an invitation to join the session. The session creator (i.e., the host) and other approved participants can access the contents of a session. The session identifies a new participant when they join the session, and concurrently notifies the other participants in the session that a new participant is waiting for permission to access the added virtual content. The host or approved participants can set up the new participant with permissions for accessing added virtual content.

Abstract: Collaborative sessions in which access to added virtual content is selectively made available to participants/users by a collaborative system. The system receives a request from a user to join a session, and associates a timestamp with the user corresponding to receipt of the request. Users can edit the collaborative object if the timestamp is within the collaborative duration period and can view the collaborative object if the timestamp is after the collaborative duration period.

Abstract: A collaborative session (e.g., a virtual time capsule) in which access to a collaborative object and added virtual content is selectively provided to participants/users. In one example of the collaborative session, authentication of the collaborative object is performed by all of the users to complete the collaborative session. Each user authenticates the collaborative object, such as using a stamping gesture on a user interface of a client device or in an augmented reality session. User specific data is recorded with the stamping gesture to authenticate the collaborative object and the associated virtual content. In an example, user specific data may include device information, participant profile information, or biometric signal information. Biometric signal information, such as a fingerprint from a mobile device or a heart rate received from a connected smart device can be used to provide an authenticating signature to the seal.

Abstract: Discloses a coherent microwave photonics radar detection method and system based on injection locking frequency multiplication. The method uses a baseband signal to modulate an optical carrier to generate a modulated optical signal including a plurality of high-order sidebands; the modulated optical signal is divided into two paths which are respectively injected into two slave lasers for high-order sideband injection locking to obtain two locked sideband optical signals; Based on combining and splitting two locked sideband optical signals, the radar transmitting signal and receiving optical signal can be obtained through photo-detection and electro-optic modulation. After coherent detection of receiving optical signal, obtaining the intermediate frequency signal, and detection target information can be extracted from intermediate frequency signal by radar algorithm.

Abstract: A collaborative session (e.g., a virtual time capsule) in which access to a collaborative object with an associated material and added virtual content is provided to users. In one example of the collaborative session, a user selects the associated material of the collaborative object. Physical characteristics are assigned to the collaborative object as a function of the associated material to be perceived by the participants when the collaborative object is manipulated. In one example, the material associated to the collaborative object is metal, wherein the interaction between the users and the collaborative object generates a response of the collaborative object that is indicative of the physical properties of metal, such as inertial, acoustic, and malleability.

Abstract: A system may include a memory and a processor in communication with the memory. The processor may be configured to perform operations. The operations may include receiving a task request from a user and determining a preferred executor type for the task request. The operations may include selecting an executor of the preferred executor type for the task request. The operations may include performing the task request with the executor and returning a response to the task request to the user.
