Abstract: Techniques for toggling a visibility of tagged spatial data and for correlating the tagged spatial data with output of an LLM are disclosed. Scene data describing a real-world scene in which a 3D object is located is accessed. A digital file that models the 3D object is accessed. The digital file includes tagged spatial data associated with the 3D object. User input is received. The user input is directed to the 3D object. The digital file and the user input are provided as input to the LLM. The LLM correlates the user input with the tagged spatial data and generates a response. While the LLM's response is being provided to the user, a display of a hologram is toggled, where this hologram overlays at least a portion of the 3D object.

Abstract: Generally, a scanning device performs a sonic scan of a space by generating an ultrasonic impulse and measuring reflected signals as raw audio data. Sonic scan data including raw audio data and an associated scan location is forwarded to a sonic mapping service, which generates and distributes a 3D map of the space called a sonic map. When multiple devices contribute, the map is a collaborative sonic map. The sonic mapping service is advantageously available as distributed computing service, and can detect acoustic characteristics of the space and/or attribute visual/audio features to elements of a 3D model based on a corresponding detected acoustic characteristic. Various implementations that utilize a sonic map, detected acoustic characteristics, an impacted visual map, and/or an impacted 3D object include mixed reality communications, automatic calibration, relocalization, visualizing materials, rendering 3D geometry, and the like.

Abstract: Examples are disclosed relating to providing spatialized audio to multiple users. In one example, a computing device presents spatialized audio to multiple users within an environment via communicative connection to one or more wearable spatial audio output devices. For each communicatively connected wearable spatial audio output device, a user-specific subset of audio tracks is generated from a set of audio tracks for a dynamic audio object positioned within the environment based on one or more user-specific parameters. A location of the wearable spatial audio output device is determined relative to the dynamic audio object, and based upon this location, a device-specific spatialized audio mix is generated that includes the user-specific subset of audio tracks. The device-specific spatialized audio mixes are sent to the wearable spatial output devices, and playback of the device-specific spatialized audio mixes are synchronously initiated at each wearable spatial audio output device.
