  • Publication number: 20210090347
    Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for presentation of modified objects within a video stream. The systems and methods receive a set of images within a video stream and identify at least a portion of a face in a first subset of images. The systems and methods determine face characteristics by analyzing the portion of the face in the first subset of images. The systems and methods apply a graphical representation of glasses to the face based on the face characteristics and cause presentation of a modified video stream including the portion of the face with the graphical representation of the glasses in a second subset of images of the set of images while receiving the video stream.

  • Patent number: 10929673
    Abstract: A mobile device can generate real-time complex visual image effects using asynchronous processing pipeline. A first pipeline applies a complex image process, such as a neural network, to keyframes of a live image sequence. A second pipeline generates flow maps that describe feature transformations in the image sequence. The flow maps can be used to process non-keyframes on the fly. The processed keyframes and non-keyframes can be used to display a complex visual effect on the mobile device in real-time or near real-time.

  • Publication number: 20210027100
    Abstract: A machine learning system can generate an image mask (e.g., a pixel mask) comprising pixel assignments for pixels. The pixels can he assigned to classes, including, for example, face, clothes, body skin, or hair. The machine learning system can be implemented. using a convolutional neural network that is configured to execute efficiently on computing devices having limited resources, such as mobile phones. The pixel mask can be used to more accurately display video effects interacting with a user or subject depicted in the image.

  • Patent number: 10607347
    Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for segmenting an image of a video stream with a client device, binarizing an area of interest within one or more image, identifying an initial pupil location and an initial iris radius, and determining a final pupil location and a final iris radius. Some embodiments enable the client device to perform one or more operations within a user interface based on the image segmentation.

  • Patent number: 10535139
    Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for gaze-based control of device operations. One method includes receiving a video stream from an imaging device, the video stream depicting one or more eyes, determining a gaze direction for the one or more eyes depicted in the video stream, detecting a change in the gaze direction of the one or more eyes, and triggering an operation in a client device based on the change in the gaze direction.

  • Publication number: 20190354344
    Abstract: An audio control system can control interactions with an application or device using keywords spoken by a user of the device. The audio control system can use machine learning models (e.g., a neural network model) trained to recognize one or more keywords. Which machine learning model is activated can depend on the active location in the application or device. Responsive to detecting keywords, different actions are performed by the device, such as navigation to a pre-specified area of the application.
