Publication number: 20240005579Abstract: Systems and methods for representing two-dimensional representations as three-dimensional avatars are provided herein. In some examples, one or more input video streams are received. A first subject, within the one or more input video streams, is identified. Based on the one or more input video streams, a first view of the first subject is identified. Based on the one or more input video streams, a second view of the first subject is identified. The first subject is segmented into a plurality of planar object. The plurality of planar objects are transformed with respect to each other. The plurality of planar objects are based on the first and second views of the first subject. The plurality of planar objects are output in an output video stream. The plurality of planar objects provide perspective of the first subject to one or more viewers.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 30, 2022Publication date: January 4, 2024Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Mar GONZALEZ FRANCO, Payod PANDA, Andrew D. WILSON, Kori M. INKPEN, Eyal OFEK, William Arthur Stewart BUXTON

Publication number: 20230421722Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to headset virtual presence techniques. For example, a participant of a communication session may not have an associated video feed, for example as a result of a user preference to disable video communication or a lack of appropriate hardware. Accordingly, a virtual presence may be generated for such a non-video participant, such that the non-video participant may be represented within the communication session similar to video participants. The virtual presence may be controllable using a headset device, for example such that movements identified by the headset device cause the virtual presence to move. In some instances, user input may be received to control emotions conveyed by the virtual presence, for example specifying an emotion type and/or intensity.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 7, 2023Publication date: December 28, 2023Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Kenneth P. HINCKLEY, Michel PAHUD, Mar Gonzalez FRANCO, Edward Sean Lloyd RINTEL, Eyal OFEK, Jaron Zepel LANIER, Molly Jane NICHOLAS, Payod PANDA

Publication number: 20230266830Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to semantic user input for a computing device. In examples, user input is identified and processed to identify and automatically perform an associated semantic action. The semantic action may be determined based at least in part on an environmental context associated with the user input. Thus, an action determined for a given user input may change according to the environmental context in which the input was received. For example, an association between user input, an environmental context, and an action may be used to affect the behavior of a computing device as a result of identifying the user input in a scenario that has the environmental context. Such associations may be dynamically determined as a result of user interactions associated with manually provided input, for example to create, update, and/or remove semantic actions associated with a variety of user inputs.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2022Publication date: August 24, 2023Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Eyal OFEK, Michel PAHUD, Edward Sean Lloyd RINTEL, Mar Gonzalez FRANCO, Payod PANDA

Publication number: 20230259322Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure relate to computing device headset input. In examples, sensor data from one or more sensors of a headset device are processed to identify implicit and/or explicit user input. A context may be determined for the user input, which may be used to process the identified input and generate an action that affects the behavior of a computing device accordingly. As a result, the headset device is usable to control one or more computing devices. As compared to other wearable devices, headset devices may be more prevalent and may therefore enable more convenient and more intuitive user input beyond merely providing audio output.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 26, 2023Publication date: August 17, 2023Applicant: Microsoft Technology Licensing, LLCInventors: Kenneth P. HINCKLEY, Michel PAHUD, Mar Gonzalez FRANCO, Edward Sean Lloyd RINTEL, Eyal OFEK, Jaron Zepel LANIER, Molly Jane NICHOLAS, Payod PANDA
