  • Publication number: 20240135555
    Abstract: A method for carving a 3D space using hands tracking is described. In one aspect, a method includes accessing a first frame from a camera of a display device, tracking, using a hand tracking algorithm operating at the display device, hand pixels corresponding to one or more user hands depicted in the first frame, detecting, using a sensor of the display device, depths of the hand pixels, identifying a 3D region based on the depths of the hand pixels, and applying a 3D reconstruction engine to the 3D region.

  • Patent number: 11915453
    Abstract: Eyewear providing an interactive augmented reality experience between two eyewear devices by using alignment between respective 6DOF trajectories, also referred to herein as ego motion alignment. An eyewear device of user A and an eyewear device of user B track the eyewear device of the other user, or an object of the other user, such as on the user's face, to provide the collaborative AR experience. This enables sharing common three-dimensional content between multiple eyewear users without using or aligning the eyewear devices to common image content such as a marker, which is a more lightweight solution with reduced computational burden on a processor. An inertial measurement unit may also be used to align the eyewear devices.

  • Patent number: 11843418
    Abstract: A method and apparatus that cancels or reduces DC offset in a fully-differential optical receiver. The method includes receiving differential optical signals, converting, with photodetectors, the differential optical signals to differential current signals representative of the differential optical signals, converting, using a transimpedance amplifier, the differential current signals to differential intermediate voltage signals, amplifying, using a main amplifier, the differential intermediate voltage signals to generate differential output voltage signals, and cancelling a DC component of the differential output voltage signals using a fully differential DC cancellation circuit. Output offset may also be cancelled or reduced using digital control.
