Patent number: 12610029Abstract: An extended reality (XR) projection system, a notebook computer and a projection method using the same are provided. The projection method includes the following steps. An image in front of a pair of XR glasses is captured by the pair of the XR glasses. The pair of the XR glasses searches the image in front of the pair of the XR glasses for an identification pattern on a curtain. The pair of the XR glasses transmits the identification pattern to a notebook computer. The notebook computer identifies an identification code of the curtain according to the identification pattern. The notebook computer transmits a frame corresponding to the identification code to the pair of the XR glasses. The pair of the XR glasses tracks the identification pattern to project the frame on the curtain.Type: GrantFiled: July 11, 2024Date of Patent: April 21, 2026Assignee: ACER INCORPORATEDInventors: Pin-Cheng Chen, Hsi Lin

Publication number: 20250069333Abstract: A method for three-dimensional (3D) scene generation is provided. The method includes the step of creating a 3D mesh. The 3D mesh has a plurality of mesh vertices. The method further includes the step of receiving a raw image. The method further includes the step of estimating the depth information of the raw image. The method further includes the step of updating the 3D mesh based on the estimated depth information. The method further includes the step of projecting each of the mesh vertices of the 3D mesh onto a coordinate system of a 3D scene based on user position information. The method further includes the step of obtaining the 3D scene by coloring the 3D mesh projected onto the coordinate system based on the texture information that is associated with the raw image.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 22, 2023Publication date: February 27, 2025Inventors: Sergio CANTERO CLARES, Chih-Haw TAN, Hsi LIN

Patent number: 11962743Abstract: A 3D display system and a 3D display method are provided. The 3D display system includes a 3D display, a memory, and a processor. The processor is coupled to the 3D display and the memory and is configured to execute the following steps. As a first type application program is executed, an image content of the first type application program is captured, and a stereo format image is generated according to the image content of the first type application program. The stereo format image is delivered to a runtime complying with a specific development standard through an application program interface complying with the specific development standard. A display frame processing associated with the 3D display is performed on the stereo format image through the runtime, and a 3D display image content generated by the display frame processing is provided to the 3D display for displaying.Type: GrantFiled: January 19, 2022Date of Patent: April 16, 2024Assignee: Acer IncorporatedInventors: Shih-Hao Lin, Chao-Kuang Yang, Wen-Cheng Hsu, Hsi Lin, Chih-Wen Huang

Publication number: 20050009574Abstract: An integrated wireless and wired hands-free device for a mobile phone has a blue-tooth wireless transceiving module. When the blue-tooth wireless transceiving module receives an incoming signal, it sends an activation control signal to an audio mix switch, which switches on a voice transmission channel to be used by the blue-tooth wireless transceiving module. The incoming signal is transmitted through the audio mix switch and a control device and finally output by a loudspeaker to be heard by a user, who can then achieve intercommunication via a microphone. The intercom voice signal is transmitted through the control device, the audio mix switch and the blue-tooth transceiving module and finally sent out by the blue-tooth transceiving module. The audio mix switch is also connected to a wired transmission device providing connection with a mobile phone lacking the blue-tooth wireless transmission function to accomplish reception of an incoming signal and intercommunication.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 8, 2003Publication date: January 13, 2005Inventor: Hsi Lin
