  • Publication number: 20240140712
    Abstract: A method and system for obtaining an identifier from an item is disclosed. The method includes autonomously operating a robotic structure having a robotic arm to pick an item using an end effector of the robotic arm along a predetermined path from a source location to a destination location according to a plan. The picked item is moved according to the plan. An active measure is determined to be performed at least in part to obtain an identifier determined to be missing based on information received via the communication interface from one or more sensors. The robotic structure is autonomously operated to place the item at the destination location based at least in part on the plan.

  • Publication number: 20240144616
    Abstract: The subject technology receives, by a client device from a storage device, first image data captured by the client device at a previous time. The subject technology receives first metadata corresponding to at least a first image processing operation and a second image processing operation. The subject technology generates, in a first render pass, second image data based on the first metadata and the image processing operation performed on the first image data. The subject technology generates, in a second render pass, third image data based on the first metadata and the second image processing operation performed on the second image data. The subject technology generates second metadata comprising information corresponding to the third image data. The subject technology generates a composite AR content item comprising the second metadata, the third image data, and the first image data.

  • Patent number: 11972529
    Abstract: The disclosure concerns an augmented reality method in which visual information concerning a real-world object, structure or environment is gathered and a deformation operation is performed on that visual information to generate virtual content that may be displayed in place of, or additionally to, real-time captured image content of the real-world object, structure or environment. Some particular embodiments concern the sharing of visual environment data and/or information characterizing the deformation operation between client devices.

  • Patent number: 11974082
    Abstract: Voice-controlled devices that include one or more speakers for outputting audio. In some instances, the device includes at least one speaker within a cylindrical housing, with the speaker aimed or pointed away from a microphone coupled to the housing. For instance, if the microphone resides at or near the top of the cylindrical housing, then the speaker may point downwards along the longitudinal axis of the housing and away from the microphone. By pointing the speaker away from the microphone, the microphone will receive less sound from the speaker than if the speaker were pointed toward the microphone). Because the voice-controlled device may perform speech recognition on audio signals generated by the microphone, less sound from the speaker represented in the audio signal may result in more accurate speech recognition, and/or a lesser need to perform acoustic echo cancelation (AEC) on the generated audio signals.
