  • Patent number: 11842384
    Abstract: A system server includes a database of two-dimensional images and a processor coupled to a hardware memory with instructions that in response to execution by the processor direct performance of operations. The operations include generating a digital model from the images in the database and communicating a first portion of the digital model as an enhanced view to a user device. The first portion corresponds to a first line of sight orientation of the user device as measured by an orientation sensor. The operations include receiving a signal based on sensor data measured by the orientation sensor. The signal indicates movement of the user device from the first line of sight orientation to a second line of sight orientation. In response, the method includes communicating a second portion of the digital model to the user device that corresponds to the second line of sight orientation of the user device.

  • Publication number: 20230169609
    Abstract: A disclosed computer-implemented method may include determining that a user of a social networking system is a participant in a dating service of the social networking system. The method may also include identifying a set of interest-based communities of the social networking system of which the user is a member and that include an activated community-based dating feature. The method may also include selecting a set of additional participants in the dating service. Each additional participant included in the set of additional participants may be an additional member of at least one interest-based community included in the set of interest-based communities. The method may also include presenting, within a dating interface of the social networking system, dating information associated with at least a portion of the set of additional participants. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 11651448
    Abstract: A disclosed computer-implemented method may include receiving a request to generate a dating profile for a user of a community-based dating service of a social networking system based on information associated with the user and maintained by the social networking system. The method may also include accessing information associated with the user and maintained by the social networking system. The method may additionally include selecting, from the information associated with the user and maintained by the social networking system (1) a set of contextual information associated with the user, and (2) a set of media items associated with the user. The method may further include generating the dating profile for the user by arranging the set of contextual information and the set of media items within a dating interface of the social networking system. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
