  • Publication number: 20230359241
    Abstract: According to an aspect, a method includes detecting, by at least one imaging sensor of a wearable device, facial features of an entity, detecting an interactive communication between a user of the wearable device and the entity based on at least image data from the at least one imaging sensor, updating a conversation graph in response to the interactive communication being detected between the user and the entity, and managing content for display on the wearable device based on the conversation graph.

  • Patent number: 11796801
    Abstract: Techniques of displaying content on a transparent display include detecting an individual present with respect to a world side, i.e., facing away from a user of a transparent display, opposite side of the transparent display as the user side. For example, circuitry connected to smartglasses detects the presence of an individual in the vicinity of the world side of a transparent display. In response, the circuitry causes an image of the individual to be generated and, based on the image, the circuitry classifies the individual as being in a state satisfying a set of criteria or not. In some implementations, the set of criteria include the individual being oriented in such a way as to be able to see the document. In response to the individual satisfying the criteria, the circuitry obscures the document from the view of the individual.

  • Patent number: 11734297
    Abstract: A computer implemented method includes establishing, by a data intake and query system, a network connection between the data intake and query system and an application and infrastructure monitoring platform. The data intake and query system receives a data stream from the application and infrastructure monitoring platform. The computer implemented method further includes transforming the data stream while receiving the data stream to obtain a transformed data stream. Further, the transformed data stream is analyzed while receiving the data stream to generate analysis results, which are presented.

  • Publication number: 20230209036
    Abstract: An electronic device estimates a depth map of an environment based on matching reduced-resolution stereo depth images captured by depth cameras to generate a coarse disparity (depth) map. The electronic device downsamples depth images captured by the depth cameras and matches sections of the reduced-resolution images to each other to generate a coarse depth map. The electronic device upsamples the coarse depth map to a higher resolution and refines the upsampled depth map to generate a high-resolution depth map to support location-based functionality.

  • Publication number: 20220375315
    Abstract: According to a general aspect, a method can include receiving, by a computing device, an electronic communication. In response to receiving the electronic communication, the method can include determining, by the computing device, a current activity of a user of the computing device, and selecting, based on the determined current activity of the user, a communication channel of the computing device for providing a notification of the electronic communication. The method can also include providing the notification using the selected communication channel of the computing device.

  • Publication number: 20220182836
    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for authenticating devices. The systems and methods may include detecting, by a sensor on a wearable device, at least one cloud anchor that includes an identifier associated with a network and configured for a physical environment. In response to detecting that a location associated with the at least one cloud anchor is within a threshold distance of the wearable device and detecting that the wearable device has access to the at least one cloud anchor, triggering extraction of the identifier from the at least one cloud anchor. The systems and methods may also include joining the wearable device to the network based on a received authentication corresponding to the extracted identifier.

  • Patent number: 11145075
    Abstract: A handheld user device includes a monocular camera to capture a feed of images of a local scene and a processor to select, from the feed, a keyframe and perform, for a first image from the feed, stereo matching using the first image, the keyframe, and a relative pose based on a pose associated with the first image and a pose associated with the keyframe to generate a sparse disparity map representing disparities between the first image and the keyframe. The processor further is to determine a dense depth map from the disparity map using a bilateral solver algorithm, and process a viewfinder image generated from a second image of the feed with occlusion rendering based on the depth map to incorporate one or more virtual objects into the viewfinder image to generate an AR viewfinder image. Further, the processor is to provide the AR viewfinder image for display.

  • Patent number: 10839541
    Abstract: A method includes capturing a first image and a second image of a scene using at least one imaging camera of an imaging system. The first image and the second image form a stereo image pair and each comprises a plurality of pixels. Each of the plurality of pixels in the second image is initialized with a disparity hypothesis. Matching costs of the disparity hypothesis for each of the plurality of pixels in the second image are recursively determined, from an image tile of a smaller pixel size to an image tile of a larger pixel size, to generate an initial tiled disparity map including a plurality of image tiles. After refining the disparity value estimate of each image tile and including a slant hypothesis, a final disparity estimate for each pixel of the image is generated.

  • Patent number: 5648939
    Abstract: A seismic processing method relating finely sampled data of earth formations, such as that obtained from borehole measurements, to substantially longer wavelength seismic data, such as that obtained from surface seismic surveys or the like, while improving the ease of manipulation and processing speed of seismic processing. In a preferred embodiment, a fine layer model having n layers is defined, with the properties of each fine layer corresponding to the properties of each of n sampling points. An equivalent model is constructed by defining m equivalent layers, where m is substantially smaller than n and the thickness of the thickest of the equivalent layers is substantially smaller than a predetermined dominant wavelength of a seismic signal. Equivalent formation properties are generated for each equivalent layer by combining the sampled formation properties of the fine layers within the respective equivalent layer, preferably in accordance with the equivalent medium theory.
