  • Publication number: 20250148683
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing voice communication operations. The system establishes, by a first augmented reality (AR) device, a voice communication session between a plurality of users. The system displays, by the first AR device of a first user of the plurality of users, an avatar representing a second user of the plurality of users. The system receives, by the first AR device of a first user of the plurality of users, input from the first user that selects a display position for the avatar representing the second user within a real-world environment of the first user. The system animates the avatar representing the second user based on movement information received from a second AR device of the second user.

  • Publication number: 20250060862
    Abstract: Systems and methods herein describe generating a shared list of media elements. The system detects a selection of an application icon within a chat interface and generates an application interface. The application interface comprises a media library. The system initiates a first user time limit and detects a selection of a media element from the media library. The system adds the media element to a shared list of media elements. Upon expiration of the first user time limit, the system initiates a second user time limit and detects a selection of a second media element from the media library. The system adds the second media element to the shared list of media elements. Upon expiration of the second user time limit, the system stores the shared list of media elements.

  • Publication number: 20240338910
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for performing operations on an augmented reality (AR) device using an external vision system. The system establishes, by the AR device, a communication with an external client device. The system overlays, by the AR device, a first AR object on a real-world environment being viewed using the AR device. The system receives interaction data from the external client device representing movement of a user determined by the external client device. The system, in response to receiving the interaction data from the external client device, modifies the first AR object by the AR device.

  • Patent number: 11706234
    Abstract: Techniques for user behavior anomaly detection. At least one low-variance characteristic is compared to an expected result for the corresponding low-variance characteristics to determine if the low-variance characteristic(s) is/are within a pre-selected range of the expected results. A security response action is taken in response to the low-variance characteristic not being within the first pre-selected range of the expected results. At least one high-variance characteristic is compared to an expected result for the corresponding high-variance characteristics to determine if the high-variance characteristic(s) is/are within a pre-selected range of the expected results. A security response action is taken in response to the high-variance characteristic not being within the first pre-selected range of the expected results. Access is provided if the low-variance and the high-variance characteristics are within the respective expected ranges.

  • Patent number: 8732290
    Abstract: Virtual workplace server software may be selected for and/or provided to an organization server based on various characteristics of the organization. One or more inputs may be received corresponding to organization characteristics, for example, organization type and size, along with other potential organization characteristics and additional relevant information. Based on the organization characteristics and/or other relevant information, virtual workplace software may be selected for an organization server. The selection of the virtual workplace software may be output and/or the corresponding software may be downloaded and installed to provide desktop virtualization at the organization server.

  • Publication number: 20120254760
    Abstract: According to embodiments of the invention, a computer system extends an invitation to a plurality of content generators to request authentic content relating to one or more selected topics. The computer system receives content generated in response to the invitation and publishes that content online. The computer system calculates an efficacy of the request by obtaining data regarding to the online content and user interactions with the content. The computer system is configured to obtain data corresponding to user interactions with the content on the website hosting the content as well as user interactions with the content on third party websites such as Facebook® or Twitter®. Using that data, the computer system calculates an efficacy of the request. The computer system may also generate one or more reports to convey the calculated efficacy of the request.
