Patent number: 11893689Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and methods are presented for generation and manipulation of three dimensional (3D) models. The system and methods cause presentation of an interface frame encompassing a field of view of an image capture device. The systems and methods detect an object of interest within the interface frame, generate a movement instruction with respect to the object of interest, and detect a first change in position and a second change in position of the object of interest. The systems and methods generate a 3D model of the object of interest based on the first change in position and the second change in position.Type: GrantFiled: August 11, 2022Date of Patent: February 6, 2024Assignee: Snap Inc.Inventors: Samuel Edward Hare, Ebony James Charlton, Andrew James McPhee, Michael John Evans

Publication number: 20230410440Abstract: Methods and systems are disclosed for generating AR experiences. The methods and systems access a first component of a plurality of components implemented by the messaging application, the plurality of components comprising an AR experience, each of the plurality of components being configured to be separately launched by the messaging application. The methods and systems store a first state of the first component in a data structure that is shared across the plurality of components; launching. The methods and system launch, by the messaging application, a second component of the plurality of components in response to determining that an interaction has been performed using the first component; and configure a second state of the second component based on the interaction that has been performed using the first component.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 21, 2022Publication date: December 21, 2023Inventors: Rastan Boroujerdi, Michael John Evans, Panayoti Haritatos

Publication number: 20230245401Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a method for rendering three-dimensional virtual objects within real-world environments. Virtual rendering of a three-dimensional virtual object can be altered appropriately as a user moves around the object in the real-world through utilization of a redundant tracking system comprising multiple tracking sub-systems. Virtual object rendering can be with respect to a reference surface in a real-world three-dimensional space depicted in a camera view of a mobile computing device.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 10, 2023Publication date: August 3, 2023Inventors: Andrew James McPhee, Ebony James Charlton, Samuel Edward Hare, Michael John Evans, Jokubas Dargis, Ricardo Sanchez-Saez

Patent number: 11678763Abstract: A kombucha brewing device includes two brewing chambers; a first stage (F1) fermentation chamber, and second stage (F2) fermentation chamber. A lid covers both chambers, and may include a first portion for the F1 chamber and a second portion for the F2 portion. The F1 portion of the lid may include a gasket and removable fabric cover insert. A base containing both chambers may include separate or segmented heating elements and temperature sensors associated with each chamber. A temperature controller may maintain the first chamber within a first temperature range and maintain the second chamber within a second temperature range by monitoring information from the temperature sensors and activating and de-activating the heating elements as appropriate.Type: GrantFiled: March 25, 2022Date of Patent: June 20, 2023Inventors: Michael John Evans Churchill, Natalia Amijo
