Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable media for voice input for augmented reality (AR) wearable devices are disclosed. Embodiments are disclosed that enable a user to interact with the AR wearable device without using physical user interface devices. A keyword is used to indicate that the user is about to speak an action or command. The AR wearable device divides the processing of the audio data into a keyword module that is trained to recognize the keyword and a module to process the audio data after the keyword. In some embodiments, the AR wearable device transmits the audio data after the keyword to a host device to process. The AR wearable device maintains an application registry that associates actions with applications. Applications can be downloaded, and the application registry updated where the applications indicate actions to associate with the application.

Abstract: A system and method for controlling an electronic eyewear device using voice commands receives audio data from a microphone, processes the audio data to identify a wake word, and upon identification of a wake word, processes the audio data to identify at least one action keyword in the audio data. The audio data is provided to one of a plurality of controllers associated with different action keywords or sets of action keywords to implement an action. For example, the audio data may be provided to a settings controller to adjust settings of the electronic eyewear device when the action keyword is indicative of a request to adjust a setting of the electronic eyewear device or to a navigation controller to navigate to the system information of the electronic eyewear device when the action keyword is indicative of a request to navigate to system information of the electronic eyewear device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable media for enhanced augmented reality (AR) reading are provided, where the methods include entering a reading mode, capturing an image of a section of reading materials such as a page of a book, identifying a code within the image, and identifying a code module corresponding to the code. The methods further include executing the code module, the code module providing an augmented reality object or virtual reality object related to an object depicted on the section or page, entering a sleep mode for a sleep duration based on an estimated reading time duration of a section or page, awaking after the sleep duration, and capturing a next image. The sleep duration is adjusted based on times when identifiers of the sections of the reading materials such as numbers are captured. The user may manually wake the AR reading device using an external user interface.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable media for input modalities for an augmented reality (AR) wearable device are disclosed. The AR wearable device captures images using an image capturing device and processes the images to identify objects. The objects may be people, places, things, and so forth. The AR wearable device associates the objects with tags such as the name of the object or a function that can be provided by the selection of the object. The AR wearable device then matches the tags of the objects with tags associated with AR applications. The AR wearable device presents on a display of the AR wearable device indications of the AR applications with matching tags, which provides a user with the opportunity to invoke one of the AR applications. The AR wearable device recognizes a selection of an AR application in a number of different ways including gesture recognition and voice commands.

Abstract: A method of providing a shopping user interface for a head-mounted display device includes detecting a product barcode in a field of view of head-mounted display device. Product and pricing information for an item is retrieved based on information in the barcode. The product and pricing information may include an item identifier and a price, which are displayed in a first display area of the head-mounted display device. After a brief delay in which a default quantity can be adjusted, the item identifier and the price are transferred into a shopping cart list display area of the head-mounted display device.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer readable media for auto-recovery of an augmented reality (AR) wearable device are disclosed. A pass-through application is invoked as a background process and an application is invoked as a foreground process. The pass-through application includes an on-resume procedure that is called if the operating system or interpreter determines that the foreground process is unresponsive. The on-resume procedure restarts the application as the foreground process and may first reboot the AR wearable device. The pass-through application remains transparent to the user by not displaying output on the display of the AR wearable device. Additionally, an uncaught exception handler is registered with the operating system to be called in the event that an exception occurs that does not have a handler. The exception handler restarts the application as the foreground process and may first reboot the AR wearable device.

Abstract: A head-worn device system includes one or more cameras, one or more display devices and one or more processors. The system also includes a memory storing instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, configure the system to detect a gesture made by a user of the computing apparatus and generate gesture data identifying the gesture, select an application or selected action from a set of registered applications and actions based on the gesture data, and invoke the application or selected action.
