Abstract: A sensor data processing system and method is described. Contemplated systems and methods derive a first recognition trait of an object from a first data set that represents the object in a first environmental state. A second recognition trait of the object is then derived from a second data set that represents the object in a second environmental state. The sensor data processing systems and methods then identifies a mapping of elements of the first and second recognition traits in a new representation space. The mapping of elements satisfies a variance criterion for corresponding elements, which allows the mapping to be used for object recognition. The sensor data processing systems and methods described herein provide new object recognition techniques that are computationally efficient and can be performed in real-time by the mobile phone technology that is currently available.

Abstract: Apparatus, methods and systems of providing AR content are disclosed. Embodiments of the inventive subject matter can obtain an initial map of an area, derive views of interest, obtain AR content objects associated with the views of interest, establish experience clusters and generate a tile map tessellated based on the experience clusters. A user device could be configured to obtain and instantiate at least some of the AR content objects based on at least one of a location and a recognition.

Abstract: An object recognition ingestion system is presented. The object ingestion system captures image data of objects, possibly in an uncontrolled setting. The image data is analyzed to determine if one or more a priori know canonical shape objects match the object represented in the image data. The canonical shape object also includes one or more reference PoVs indicating perspectives from which to analyze objects having the corresponding shape. An object ingestion engine combines the canonical shape object along with the image data to create a model of the object. The engine generates a desirable set of model PoVs from the reference PoVs, and then generates recognition descriptors from each of the model PoVs. The descriptors, image data, model PoVs, or other contextually relevant information are combined into key frame bundles having sufficient information to allow other computing devices to recognize the object at a later time.

Abstract: Systems and methods of generating a compact visual vocabulary are provided. Descriptor sets related to digital representations of objects are obtained, clustered and partitioned into cells of a descriptor space, and a representative descriptor and index are associated with each cell. Generated visual vocabularies could be stored in client-side devices and used to obtain content information related to objects of interest that are captured.

Abstract: A system for analyzing scene traits in an object recognition ingestion ecosystem is presented. In some embodiment, a trait analysis engine analyzes a digital representation of a scene to derive one or more features. The features are compiled into sets of similar features with respect to a feature space. The engine attempts to discover which traits of the scene (e.g., temperature, lighting, gravity, etc.) can be used to distinguish the features for purposes of object recognition. When such distinguishing traits are found, an object recognition database is populated with object information, possibly indexed according to the similar features and their corresponding distinguishing traits.

Abstract: Systems and methods of quickly recognizing or differentiating many objects are presented. Contemplated systems include an object model database storing recognition models associated with known modeled objects. The object identifiers can be indexed in the object model database based on recognition features derived from key frames of the modeled object. Such objects are recognized by a recognition engine at a later time. The recognition engine can construct a recognition strategy based on a current context where the recognition strategy includes rules for executing one or more recognition algorithms on a digital representation of a scene. The recognition engine can recognize an object from the object model database, and then attempt to identify key frame bundles that are contextually relevant, which can then be used to track the object or to query a content database for content information.
