Abstract: A shroud for a small cell antenna system is designed to house cellular telephone equipment, including a plurality of transceivers, RF conditioning equipment, and a network interface, which includes an interface to a optical fiber network. The housing has walls that define an interior region. The housing has at least one movable door that can be opened and closed to respectively permit and prevent access to the interior region. A generally planar backbone is situated in the interior region. The backbone has a plurality of apertures. A plurality of elongated brackets can be mounted to the backbone. Each bracket has a plurality of hooks and is attached to the backbone by insertion of the hooks into the apertures of the backbone. RF conditioning equipment (e.g., diplexer, triplexer, multiplexer, etc.) is mounted on one of the brackets within the housing. A network interface is mounted on another one of the brackets within the housing.

Abstract: A method is provided for markerless injection of content into an augmented reality scene by use of a mobile device. Through the mobile device, a camera feed of a scene is acquired, which includes a flat surface. A key frame of the flat surface is selected from the feed. After determining that the flat surface in the key frame meets a predetermined level of feature richness, digital content is injected by superimposing text, graphics, video content over at least a part of the key frame. The digital content can be viewed and interacted with by the user of the mobile device. In one embodiment, the digital content is an advertisement.

Abstract: A method is provided for injecting a 3D virtual museum artifact in augmented reality space for interaction therewith by a user of a mobile device. Through the mobile device, a camera feed of a scene in a museum is acquired, which includes a flat surface. The mobile device selects a key frame of the flat surface from the feed. The mobile device determines that the flat surface in the key frame meets a predetermined level of feature richness. The mobile device accesses a 3D virtual museum artifact from a museum database, which had been previously acquired or extrapolated from an actual museum artifact in the collection of the museum. This is injected over at least a part of the key frame. The user is then allowed to interact with the 3D virtual museum artifact.

Abstract: A method is provided for user interaction with a 3D virtual object in augmented reality space. The user has a mobile device. Through the mobile device, a camera feed of a scene is acquired, which includes a flat surface. The mobile device selects a key frame of the flat surface from the feed. The mobile device determines that the flat surface in the key frame meets a predetermined level of feature richness. The mobile device injects a 3D virtual object over at least a part of the key frame. The mobile device detects whether the user is relatively stationary or is in motion through at least one onboard sensor, and provides the user with distinct options for interaction with the 3D virtual object accordingly.
