  • Patent number: 11797105
    Abstract: Examples of systems and methods for improved hand tracking of a user in a mixed reality environment are disclosed. The systems and methods may be configured to estimate the hand pose and shape of a user's hands for applications such as animating a hand on a user's avatar. Data from multiple sources, such as a totem internal measurement unit (“IMU”), external totem location tracking, vision cameras, and depth sensors, may be manipulated using a set of rules that are based on historical data, ergonomics data, and motion data.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: September 27, 2022
    Date of Patent: October 24, 2023
    Assignee: Magic Leap, Inc.
    Inventors: Federico Schliemann, Francisco Lopez-Fresquet, Victor Ng-Thow-Hing, Tomislav Pejsa

  • Patent number: 10019849
    Abstract: Systems and methods for interacting with a display system using a personal electronic device (PED). The display system may establish communication with and receive user input from the PED. The display system may use the received user input to generate and/or update content displayed on a display of the display system.

  • Patent number: 9848184
    Abstract: Systems and methods for a head tracked stereoscopic display system that uses light field type data may include receiving light field type data corresponding to a scene. The stereoscopic display system may track a user's head. Using the received light field type data and the head tracking, the system may generate three dimensional (3D) virtual content that corresponds to a virtual representation of the scene. The stereoscopic display system may then present the 3D virtual content to a user. The stereoscopic display system may present a left eye perspective image and a right eye perspective image of the scene to the user based on the position and orientation of the user's head. The images presented to the user may be updated based on a change in the position or the orientation of the user's head or based on receiving user input.

  • Patent number: 9703400
    Abstract: Virtual plane and use in a stylus based three dimensional (3D) stereoscopic display system. A virtual plane may be displayed in a virtual 3D space on a display of the 3D stereoscopic display system. The virtual plane may extend from a stylus of the 3D stereoscopic display system. Content may be generated in response to a geometric relationship of the virtual plane with at least one virtual object in the virtual 3D space. The generated content may indicate one or more attributes of the at least one virtual object. The content may be presented via the 3D stereoscopic display system.
