  • Publication number: 20240070973
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and machine-readable media are disclosed. A computing device is in communications with a display and one or more trackers that determine a location of a camera relative to the display. The computing device generates a digital scene for presentation on the display such that one or more objects shown in the digital scene have suitable perspective for the location of the camera as determined by the tracker.

  • Patent number: 11836848
    Abstract: A system for real-time updates to a display based upon the location of a camera or a detected location of a human viewing the display or both is disclosed. The system enables real-time filming of an augmented reality display that reflects realistic perspective shifts. The display may be used for filming, or may be used as a “game” or informational screen in a physical location, or other applications. The system also enables the use of real-time special effects that are centered upon an actor or other human to be visualized on a display, with appropriate perspective shift for the location of the human relative to the display and the location of the camera relative to the display.

  • Patent number: 11547930
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for incorporating a voice command from a user into a game. An embodiment operates by receiving real-time context data of a game and a voice command from a user of the game. After receipt, the voice command is parsed and a particular module of a plurality of modules containing static context data of the game is identified based on the parsed voice command. Based on the parsed voice command and the static context data of the game, a preliminary outcome is determined. The preliminary outcome and real-time game context data is then provided to determine a preliminary action and a final action different from the preliminary action, wherein the final action is to be incorporated into the game.

  • Patent number: 10740958
    Abstract: A system for real-time filming of actors in front of a display such that, as a camera is moved in front of that display, the background and other action taking place on the display is updated to have correct based upon a relative position of the camera. The method includes displaying images on the display so as to correspond to a first perspective for objects shown on the images based upon a current position of the camera relative to the display determined using the first fixed position and the second fixed position, and continuously adjusting images shown on the display so as to correspond to additional perspectives suitable for objects shown in the images based upon movement of the camera relative to the display using an updated current position of the camera relative to the display determined using the first position and the second fixed position during the movement.

  • Publication number: 20200151943
    Abstract: There is disclosed a system for generating and displaying augmented reality content on a display that incorporates movement both internally and externally to the display and takes into account the perspective of a viewer so that three-dimensional content may properly perspective shift based upon movement of the viewer or viewers.
