Patent number: 11487353Abstract: In certain embodiments, a sensing and tracking system detects objects, such as user input devices or peripherals, and user interactions with them. A representation of the objects and user interactions are then injected into the virtual reality environment. The representation can be an actual reality, augmented reality, virtual representation or any combination. For example, an actual keyboard can be injected, but with the keys pressed being enlarged and lighted.Type: GrantFiled: December 31, 2020Date of Patent: November 1, 2022Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Stephen Harvey, Denis O'Keeffe, Andreas Connellan, Damien O'Sullivan, Aidan Kehoe, Noirin Curran, Thomas Rouvinez, Mario Gutierrez, Olivier Riviere, Remy Zimmermann, Mathieu Meisser, Dennin Onorio, Ciaran Trotman, Pierce O'Bradaigh, Marcel Twohig, Padraig Murphy, Jerry Ahern

Patent number: 11366512Abstract: In some embodiments, a system comprising one or more processors configured to track a location of an input device within a physical environment via a three-dimensional (3D) tracking system, and modify a tracking parameter of the 3D tracking system while tracking the location of the input device based on the determined location of the input device within the physical environment. The input device may be coupled to a virtual reality display system and tracking the location of the location of the input device can be used for interacting with the virtual reality display system.Type: GrantFiled: July 1, 2020Date of Patent: June 21, 2022Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Stephen Harvey, Denis O'Keeffe, Aidan Kehoe, Mario Gutierrez, Damien O'Sullivan, Thomas Rouvinez, Mathieu Meisser, Noirin Curran, Remy Zimmermann, Marcel Twohig, Dennin Onorio, Pierce O'Bradaigh, Olivier Riviere, Ciaran Trotman, Andreas Connellan, Padraig Murphy, Jerry Ahern

Patent number: 11221730Abstract: In some embodiments, an input device for interfacing within an VR/AR environment can include a processor, one or more motion tracking sensors to track a motion of the input device in three-dimensional (3D) space, where a cursor in the VR/AR environment moves based on the tracked motion of the input device in 3D space and is limited to tracked motion having three degrees of freedom (DOF). The input device can further include a button that, when activated, selects an application window in the VR/AR environment when the cursor is placed over the application window, where the application window moves in the VR/AR environment based on the tracked motion of the input device in 3D space while the application window is selected. The input device can include a user interface that, when activated, accesses and controls content on the selected application window.Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2020Date of Patent: January 11, 2022Assignee: Logitech Europe S.A.Inventors: Padraig Murphy, Andreas Connellan, Olivier Riviere, Fergal Corcoran, Pierce O'Bradaigh, Jan Findlater, Philip Waldron, Gavin McGlynn, Denis O'Keeffe, Jerry Ahern, Marcel Twohig

Publication number: 20190265781Abstract: An augmented reality or virtual reality (AR/VR) system can include a virtual input device that can be rendered by an HMD, and a wearable impact detection device, such as a ring, smart watch, wristband, etc. with an inertial measurement unit (IMU), that can be used in conjunction with the HMD to track a location of the user's hands relative to the perceived location of the rendered virtual keyboard using, e.g., vision-based tracking via the HMD and determine when an intended input (e.g., button press) is entered by the user by detecting an impact of the user's finger(s) on a physical surface. The AR/VR system can then determine which key is pressed based on the physical location of the user's hands (e.g., using the vision-based tracking) and, more precisely, the user's finger(s) causing the detected impact and the closest key of the virtual input device to the detected point of impact.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 28, 2019Publication date: August 29, 2019Inventors: Aidan Kehoe, Denis O'Keefe, Damien O'Sullivan, Katie Crowley, Olivier Riviere, Fabien Zellweger
