Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enabling graceful recovery of network connections in a virtual machine instance that has been migrated or temporarily halted. To prevent the virtual machine instance from attempting to reuse open connections, which might fail due to migration or halting, a host device identifies open connections just prior to halting the virtual machine instance on the host, and transmits to the virtual machine instance termination signals for the open connections. The host device may further transmit termination signals to the other parties to such connections. Each termination signal may be formatted so as to appear to originate from the other party to the connection, causing both parties to synchronize their knowledge of the connection. On reactivation, the virtual machine instance can recovery the connections without errors associated with attempted utilization of broken connections.

Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for allowing remote participation in collaborative video review based on joint state data, for a video collaboration session, maintained by a video collaboration service. A user at a participant client device may provide one or more annotations, such as a drawing annotation, for the video data via a client application. The client application transmits computer-readable instructions for re-creating the drawing annotation to the service, which distributes the drawing instructions to the other participant client devices. Using the drawing instructions, the client applications at the client devices are configured to re-create the drawing annotation on the associated video frame displayed at the client devices. The joint state data communicated to client devices for a given session may include co-presence data that efficiently increases communication among the participants in a session.

Abstract: A method for reducing motion-to-photon latency for hand tracking is described. In one aspect, a method includes accessing a first frame from a camera of an Augmented Reality (AR) device, tracking a first image of a hand in the first frame, rendering virtual content based on the tracking of the first image of the hand in the first frame, accessing a second frame from the camera before the rendering of the virtual content is completed, the second frame immediately following the first frame, tracking, using the computer vision engine of the AR device, a second image of the hand in the second frame, generating an annotation based on tracking the second image of the hand in the second frame, forming an annotated virtual content based on the annotation and the virtual content, and displaying the annotated virtual content in a display of the AR device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a medical instrument having an elongated shaft, a movable tool at a distal end of the shaft, a handle with a movable grip part at a proximal end of the shaft, and a force transmission element which can be moved in the longitudinal direction of the instrument and is operatively connected to the movable grip part and to the tool such that an actuation of the movable grip part is converted into a movement of the tool. The instrument has a spring assembly that is arranged on the handle and has at least one leg spring, which has at least one winding and two legs, and a pin, wherein the at least one winding extends about the pin. When the movable grip part is actuated, a force is applied to at least one of the legs of the leg spring, said force reducing the friction between the winding and the pin such that the leg spring can be rotated about the pin and the force transmission element and the tool can be moved.

Abstract: The present disclosure is directed toward systems and methods that provide users with efficient and effective user experiences when browsing, selecting, or inspecting content items. More specifically, systems and methods described herein provide users the ability to easily and effectively select multiple content items via a single touch gesture (e.g., swipe gesture). Additionally, systems and methods disclosed herein can allow users to select various content items in a selection interface, preview a content item, and return to the selection interface with the previous selections remaining intact. Still further, systems and methods described herein allow users to transition between a content graphical user interface and a selection interface based on touch gestures with content items. Embodiments of the present invention further provide improved navigability by collapsing views of content items.

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.

Abstract: The present technology pertains to synchronized video viewing that is supported by the use of a pending changes count to keep the client devices in synchronization while providing a user experience that matches the expectations of the user. A second client device can receive input to change some aspect of the playback of a video that is being viewed synchronously with at least one other device. The second client device can process the event so the video can reflect the received input. The second client device can also send a collaboration message to a synchronized video viewing service to inform other client devices of the command. Since the second client device is aware of its own event, the second client device can ignore processing any other collaboration messages until it receives the collaboration message it initiated echoed back to it. Thereafter it can resume processing received collaboration messages.
