  • Publication number: 20260170116
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to biometric authentication, e.g., facial recognition. In some embodiments, a device is configured to verify that image data from a camera unit exhibits a pseudo-random sequence of image capture modes and/or a probing pattern of illumination points (e.g., from lasers in a depth capture mode) before authenticating a user based on recognizing a face in the image data. In some embodiments, a secure circuit may control verification of the sequence and/or the probing pattern. In some embodiments, the secure circuit may verify frame numbers, signatures, and/or nonce values for captured image information. In some embodiments, a device may implement one or more lockout procedures in response to biometric authentication failures. The disclosed techniques may reduce or eliminate the effectiveness of spoofing and/or replay attacks, in some embodiments.

  • Publication number: 20260134621
    Abstract: Various implementations provide 3D representations of objects. Such representations may be based on 3D point cloud and/or 2D image inputs that are obtained based on sensor data, e.g., images, depth data, motion data, etc. 3D point cloud input may be used for part segmentation and/or to determine position and/or orientation of object parts, e.g., generating 3D bounding boxes representing the sizes, positions, and orientations, of object parts. 2D image input may be used for part attribute recognition, e.g., to determine whether a chair legs part has a particular type such as star-shaped, straight down, crossed-shaped, etc. Part attributes may be used to produce a relatively simple and relatively accurate representation of the shape of each part within a respective area, e.g., within a bounding box determined for each part using the 3D point cloud input.

  • Patent number: 12548178
    Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that present a live view of a room based on two-dimensional (2D) images obtained during a scan. Sensor data is obtained during a scan of a room of a physical environment. The sensor data includes a 3D point cloud and a sequence of 2D images corresponding to captured views of the room. A shape representing an element of the room based on the sensor data is generated. A position of an edge of the shape is refined based on an image of the sequence of 2D images obtained during the scan of the room. A live view of the room is presented based on the sequence of 2D images obtained during the scan of the room, where the live view includes a line positioned based on the refined position of the edge of the shape.
