  • Publication number: 20220383594
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer programming products for generating, rendering and/or displaying a computer-generated virtual environment as augmented reality and/or virtual reality. The physical boundaries containing the active area where the virtual environments are rendered and displayed are established. Based on the constraints and characteristics of the physical boundaries, virtual environments are mapped using assets from real, historical and/or fictitious locations. The assets can be dynamically re-sized and distanced to fit constraints of the physical space. Based on historical levels of interactivity with the selected environments, the virtual assets can be sorted and tagged as points of interest or filler assets, then mapped to the virtual environment using GAN technology and other machine learning techniques to re-create unique versions of the selected environments.

    Abstract: A computer-implemented method and a computer program product for optimizing groupings in a breakout session in a virtual classroom. A computer retrieves profiles of students in the virtual classroom, where the profiles of the students include data of academic performances of the students. The computer retrieves a known correspondents archive which includes historic data of productivities correlated to interactions among the students. In response to initialization of the breakout session in the virtual classroom, the computer determines optimal groups that yield most productive results, based on the profiles of the students, the known correspondents archive, and requirements of group settings given by an instructor, using a machine learning model. The computer provides the instructor with the optimal groups. In another embodiment, the computer analyzes context of customized assignments for the breakout session and determines the optimal groups further based on the context to the customized assignments.

  • Patent number: 11356794
    Abstract: Upon an attempt to communicate through an audio input source in a voice session, a determination can be made whether an audio quality received from a user through the audio input source is below an audio quality threshold. In response to determining that the audio quality through the audio input source is below the audio quality threshold, a first voice input can be received from the user from a first position. A second voice input can be received from the user from a second position. A first volume of the first voice input from the first position can be compared to a second volume of the second voice input from the second position. Feedback can be provided to the user indicating whether the user is closer or farther from the audio input source based on the comparison.
