  • Patent number: 12201912
    Abstract: An approach is provided for streaming of media streams (e.g., from a game console). In one implementation, a media stream that includes a secondary view of the game world may be generated at the game console. The secondary view may be of a lower-quality version of a primary view of the game world. The generation of the media stream may include: prefetching, to a cache of the game console, portions of the primary view and/or instructions for encoding the portions; and encoding, based on the prefetching, the portions to produce the secondary view. In another implementation, game play information may be executed to reproduce previous game play of a previous game session during a reproduction of the previous game session. Augmentation content may be added to the reproduced game session during the reproduction of the previous game session, creating an augmented game session having one or more views for streaming.

  • Publication number: 20230149813
    Abstract: The present specification discloses systems and methods of creating a point cloud around a portion of a virtual landscape of a video game. A mesh is generated based on the point cloud, and then the mesh is simplified to create a series of proxy meshes that are dynamically used to render level of detail (LOD) visual assets.

  • Publication number: 20170370469
    Abstract: A sealed component assembly within an aircraft, comprising first 10 and second 12 components each facing surfaces, and a sealing member 20 extending between the facing surfaces. The sealing member includes a conductive portion 22 sandwiched between first 24 and second 26 sealing portions. The sealing portions extend between and in contact with the facing surfaces, and are made of a sealing material. The conductive portion is in contact with conductive regions of the facing surfaces and defines an electrical connection therebetween. The conductive portion is more conductive than the sealing portions. In a particular embodiment, the components are a floor panel and a floor beam. A sealing member 20 for a connection between two aircraft components is also discussed.
