  • Publication number: 20240144431
    Abstract: In particular embodiments, a computing system may capture a first image of a scene using a first camera of an artificial reality device. The system may capture a second image of the scene using a second camera and one or more optical elements of the artificial reality device. The second image may include an overlapping portion of multiple shifted copies of the scene. The system may generate an upsampled first image by applying a particular sampling technique to the first image. The system may generate a tiled image comprising a plurality of repeated second images by applying a tiling process to the second image. The system may generate an initial output image by processing the upsampled first image and the tiled image using a machine learning model. The system may generate a final output image by normalizing the initial output image using the upsampled first image.

  • Publication number: 20240127546
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described to enable the creation and use of one or more interest meshes that may comprise interest values associated with points of interest in a virtual environment. A mesh may adapt to different environments and may be automatically created based on predefined criteria used to assign interest values to digital assets or points (e.g., coordinates) in the virtual environment. The virtual environment may use a mesh to guide a user toward points of interest by determining desired positions and viewpoint orientations for the user and guiding the user from point to point. Further, events may be triggered in the virtual environment that may change one or more meshes and/or create a new point of interest for a user. The user may then be guided using the changed mesh(es) to points of interest, including new points of interest.

  • Publication number: 20240124242
    Abstract: The present invention provides a moisture reduction roller conveyor system (100, 200, 301) and method comprising a continuous carry belt (105, 205, 308) to carry a bulk material and an oscillatory motion assembly (110, 210, 320) operatively connected and configured to induce oscillatory motion of the belt that is transmitted to the bulk material. The oscillatory motion assembly (110) is operatively connected to the frame to induce the oscillatory motion. Alternatively, the oscillatory motion assembly has idler rollers (210a, 210b, 210c) that are offset or eccentric to one another to induce the oscillatory motion. A different oscillatory motion assembly comprises a carriage body (325) for supporting the belt (308) and wheels (340, 345) for engaging a rail track (302). The wheels (340, 345) are configured to induce the oscillatory motion, preferably by periodically lifting one end (360) of the carriage body from the rail track as the carriage moves.

  • Publication number: 20240127285
    Abstract: A media creative attribution method includes determining a response profile within an attribution time window, the response profile being a portion of a unique visitor (UV) curve associated with a website. In some cases, a shadow baseline analysis is run on every media creative that aired within an extended time window to determine whether to adjust the response profile. A total lift within the attribution time window is determined utilizing a baseline of the UV curve. A weight for each media creative that aired within the attribution time window is determined. Utilizing the weight, the total lift is allocated to individual media creatives that aired within the attribution time window. The allocated attribution can be utilized to generate performance metrics relating to the individual media creatives that aired within the attribution time window. The performance metrics such as cost per visitor can be visualized through a user interface or dashboard.
