Abstract: A first virtual display zone may be set as anchored in a first physical space. The zone may include one or more virtual displays rendered by extended reality (XR) equipment, such as a head mounted display (HMD). A first zone policy may be set for the first virtual display zone, defining what applications will have outputs rendered in the first virtual zone. A zone policy may specify that the output of applications that provide live communication will be generated for display in the first virtual display, or may specify which other XR devices, in the first physical space or remote, may access the virtual displays of the first. Location and policies for a second virtual display zone may be similarly set. Also, virtual displays anchored in the physical space may be de-anchored and re-anchored to the XR equipment if the XR equipment exits the first physical space.

Abstract: A number of zones are defined within a location, each zone corresponding to a different physical area within the location. A weighting factor is then assigned to each zone. A number of content items are identified for display in the AR display based on user preferences. Using the weighting factors and content item priority data determined from user preference data, each content item is assigned to a zone. The AR display then renders the content items in each zone.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to method for supervising a plurality of users of XR devices. A problem arises in that a supervisor hoping to assist a user in operating in the XR environment cannot easily obtain a representation of the XR environment which a particular user amongst the plurality of users is currently perceiving. The disclosure addresses this problem by having each XR device and a supervisory device independently determine the position of an XR device. Each XR device provides replica stream data in association with its position, and the user of the supervisory device selects an XR device by selecting its position. By tallying the position in the supervisor's selection of an XR device with the position associated with each replica stream, the replica stream of the XR device selected by the supervisor can be provided to the supervisory device.

Abstract: A virtual display visible via extended reality equipment (XR equipment) is controlled by user input to a physical controller that also controls a physical display. The physical controller may be a keyboard, a trackpad, a mouse, a joystick, a gaming controller, gaming console, or an appliance remote controller. The virtual display may be generated by a movement of a graphical user interface element on the physical display beyond a display area of the physical display or in other ways. The virtual display may be anchored to the physical display so as to move in response to movement of the physical device. A second virtual display may be similarly generated in response to further user input via the physical device and may be automatically positioned so as to be visible via the XR equipment on a same vertical plane or arc as the first virtual display.

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: System and methods of providing automatic recording of a virtual meeting based on user activity is disclosed. The method includes determining if a virtual meeting has begun and if a user is available or attentive based on one or more sensors, including a webcam, a Bluetooth controller, an infrared camera, a proximity detector, and a microphone connected to the user device. When it is determined that the user is insufficiently available or attentive, a recording of the virtual meeting is started. A user attention status may be reassessed periodically, and the recording continues as long as the user remains insufficiently available or attentive. Once the user is determined to be available, the recording is ended.

Abstract: A tree data structure that includes an exponential root node and a plurality of regular child nodes arranged in hierarchical levels is generated. A number of the hierarchical levels corresponds to a specified precision value. A numerical data value is received. The numerical data value is truncated according to the specified precision value to generate a truncated value. Portions of the truncated value are stored in the tree data structure by storing an exponent of the truncated value in the exponential root node, and storing each significant digit of the truncated value in a respective regular child node based on significance level. Statistical information is computed for each node storing a portion of the truncated value. The statistical information is provided in response to a query.

Abstract: Methods and systems are described for automatic content generation, imaging, and navigation. Inputs including mapping data, original imagery, live information, and user-generated information are received. The inputs are processed to generate prompts as an intermediate output. The inputs and the generated prompts are input into generative AI systems. The output of the generative AI systems is integrated into enhanced images, enhanced maps, and enhanced directions along a route. Artificial intelligence systems, including neural networks, and models are utilized to improve the automatic content generation, imaging, and navigation. Related apparatuses, devices, techniques, and articles are also described.

Abstract: A location is mapped to identify a number of zones, and content items are identified for assignment to the zones. Selection of a zone for each content item may be received from the user, or content items may be assigned to zones automatically as described above. Identifiers of each content item and indicators of the selected zone for each content item are then stored as an AR display configuration associated with the location. In response to detecting that the AR display device is being used at the location, the AR display configuration is retrieved and resolved on the AR display device.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided herein for engaging navigation modes based on traffic events. For example, the disclosed system receives a request for navigating a user device from a start location to a final destination. The user device optionally indicates that turn-by-turn navigational directions are to be provided from an intermediate location to the final destination. The system determines all possible routes the user device can take from the start location to the intermediate location and, in some embodiments, from the intermediate location to the final destination. Once engaged, the system monitors the user device's progress from the start location to the intermediate location without displaying turn-by-turn navigation. During which time, the system notifies the user device of any traffic events that may impact the journey. When prompted, the system provides turn-by-turn navigational directions to bypass the traffic event.

Abstract: A collaborative map building method is described in which if it is determined, for example, by a SLAM network edge, that a portion of a map corresponding to a target area of a first region is incomplete, a request to a device is transmitted to move toward the target area. The map is updated based on the scan performed by the device in the target area. Also described is a virtual image guide embodiment in which upon determining that a map of a target area of the first region is incomplete, a virtual guide image is generated on a device to appear at a target location. The user of the device is guided to the target area by the virtual image.
