Patent number: 11181976Abstract: There is disclosed a method of and apparatus for predictive tracking for a head mounted display. The method comprises obtaining one or more three-dimensional angular velocity measurements from a sensor monitoring the head mounted display and setting a prediction interval based upon the one or more three-dimensional angular velocity measurements such that the prediction interval is substantially zero when the head mounted display is substantially stationary and the prediction interval increases up to a predetermined latency interval when the head mounted display is moving at an angular velocity of or above a predetermined threshold. The method further includes predicting a three-dimensional orientation for the head mounted display to create a predicted orientation at a time corresponding to the prediction interval, and generating a rendered image corresponding to the predicted orientation for presentation on the head mounted display.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2020Date of Patent: November 23, 2021Assignee: Facebook Technologies, LLCInventors: Steve LaValle, Peter Giokaris

Patent number: 11032537Abstract: There is disclosed a system for viewing augmented, virtual, mixed, and combined reality environments. The system calculates the position and orientation of a movable display within physical space and translated those into an appropriate rendering of the content on the movable display also taking into account a head location for a viewer. The motion and location data for the movable display device and a viewer's head may be generated using trackers of various types.Type: GrantFiled: May 27, 2020Date of Patent: June 8, 2021Assignee: Athanos, Inc.Inventors: Peter Giokaris, Michael Zyda, Joseph Sardone

Publication number: 20200310535Abstract: There is disclosed a method of and apparatus for predictive tracking for a head mounted display. The method comprises obtaining one or more three-dimensional angular velocity measurements from a sensor monitoring the head mounted display and setting a prediction interval based upon the one or more three-dimensional angular velocity measurements such that the prediction interval is substantially zero when the head mounted display is substantially stationary and the prediction interval increases up to a predetermined latency interval when the head mounted display is moving at an angular velocity of or above a predetermined threshold. The method further includes predicting a three-dimensional orientation for the head mounted display to create a predicted orientation at a time corresponding to the prediction interval, and generating a rendered image corresponding to the predicted orientation for presentation on the head mounted display.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 16, 2020Publication date: October 1, 2020Inventors: Steve LaValle, Peter Giokaris
