  • Publication number: 20240012252
    Abstract: Augmented reality systems and methods for automatically repositioning a virtual object with respect to a destination object in a three-dimensional (3D) environment of a user are disclosed. The systems and methods can automatically attach the target virtual object to the destination object and re-orient the target virtual object based on the affordances of the virtual object or the destination object. The systems and methods can also track the movement of a user and detach the virtual object from the destination object when the user's movement passes a threshold condition.

  • Publication number: 20220244776
    Abstract: A wearable device can have a field of view through which a user can perceive real or virtual objects. The device can display a visual aura representing contextual information associated with an object that is outside the user's field of view. The visual aura can be displayed near an edge of the field of view and can dynamically change as the contextual information associated with the object changes, e.g., the relative position of the object and the user (or the user's field of view) changes.

  • Publication number: 20170097330
    Abstract: A combined dataset is provided including (i) online process measurement data (OPMD), calculated process data derived from the OPMD or inline property data for liquid component(s) provided to the process from laboratory test results or an online analyzer (process measurement data), (ii) spectra data from online spectral analyzing a liquid product or offline spectra data from liquid product samples, and (iii) laboratory property data (LPD) of ?1 product property from the product samples. When the spectra data is online data the dataset includes the OPMD and the online spectra data is coincidentally collected with product samples for the LPD. When the spectra data is offline spectra data the OPMD is coincidentally collected with the product samples for the LPD and for the offline spectra data. Using a Multivariate Data Analysis algorithm, a hybrid mathematical analyzer model is generated from the dataset which predicts the product property(ies) from (i) and (ii).
