Patent number: 11887267Abstract: A method includes receiving an image of a real environment captured using a camera worn by a user, the image comprising a hand of the user and determining a pose of the hand based on the image. Based on a three-dimensional model of the hand having the determined pose, generating a two-dimensional surface representing the hand as viewed from a first viewpoint of the user and positioning the two-dimensional surface representing the hand and one or more virtual-object representations in a three-dimensional space. The method further includes determining that a portion of the two-dimensional surface representing the hand is visible from a second viewpoint in the three-dimensional space, and generating an output image, wherein a set of image pixels of the output image corresponding to the portion of the two-dimensional surface that is visible is configured to cause a display to tur off a set of corresponding display pixels.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2021Date of Patent: January 30, 2024Assignee: Meta Platforms Technologies, LLCInventors: Christopher James Goodman, Gregory Mayo Daly

Patent number: 11562529Abstract: A method includes generating a depth map of a real environment as seen from a viewpoint that comprises pixels having corresponding depth values of one or more physical objects. Based on the depth map a two-dimensional occlusion surface is generated representing at least a visible portion of the one or more physical objects that are located within a predetermined depth range defined relative to the viewpoint. The two-dimensional occlusion surface is posed in a three-dimensional coordinate system such that the two-dimensional occlusion surface is located at a predetermined distance from the viewpoint. The visibility of a virtual object is determined relative to the one or more physical objects by comparing a model of the virtual object with the two-dimensional occlusion surface, and an output image is generated based on the visibility of the virtual object.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2021Date of Patent: January 24, 2023Assignee: Meta Platforms Technologies, LLCInventors: Gregory Mayo Daly, Nicholas McGee

Patent number: 11335077Abstract: A method includes receiving an image of a real environment using a camera worn by a user, and determining a portion of the image that comprises an object of interest. Based on the portion of the image that comprises the object of interest, a surface representing the object of interest is generated. Depth measurements of the real environment corresponding to the portion of the image comprising the object of interest are received and used to determine a depth of the surface representing the object of interest. The surface is posed in a coordinate system corresponding to the real environment based on the depth of the surface and a visibility of a virtual object is determined relative to the object of interest by comparing a model of the virtual object with the surface. The output image is generated based on the determined visibility of the virtual object.Type: GrantFiled: March 19, 2021Date of Patent: May 17, 2022Assignee: Facebook Technologies, LLC.Inventors: Mahdi Salmani Rahimi, Gregory Mayo Daly, Gian Diego Tipaldi, Alexander Sorkine Hornung, Mark David Strachan

Patent number: 11194839Abstract: A system and method to aggregate subscriber-perspective data from live data packets of network traffic. The method includes inspecting live packets of network traffic exchanged with a plurality of subscriber end devices. Network traffic exchanged with a subscriber end device can include network traffic exchanged with a different subscriber end device or with an application server. The packet inspection is performed at a location of interception of the live packets, each subscriber end device being an end device correlated with a subscriber. The method further includes selecting, at the location, content data of the inspected packets that correspond to packets exchanged with a selected subscriber end device of the plurality of subscriber end devices, aggregating, at the location, the content data selected, wherein the content data has not been previously aggregated, and outputting, at the location, results of the aggregation.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2017Date of Patent: December 7, 2021Assignee: NetScout Systems, IncInventors: Anil K. Singhal, Gregory Mayo, Rajeev Nadkarni, Narendra Byrapuram, Bruce A. Kelley, Jr.

Patent number: 9025486Abstract: Methods are described that are used to identify quality problems in a wireless communication network as experienced by a user-session of a mobile computing device, and quantify the quality of network transmission associated with the user-session. The quality of transmission during a user-session can then be used to characterize the network quality as experienced by an end user. One benefit of applying the described methods is that the actual quality of network transmissions experienced in a user-session is quantified rather than being inferred from the performance of a radio access network (“RAN”) transceiver. The described methods are used in some examples to determine network quality issues related to user-session characteristics, such as location and mobile computing device type.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2013Date of Patent: May 5, 2015Assignee: NetScout Systems, Inc.Inventors: Jason Murphy, Gregory Mayo
