  • Publication number: 20210303779
    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed for sharing user markings between digital documents and corresponding physically printed documents. The sharing is facilitated using an Augmented Reality (AR) device, such as a smartphone or a tablet. The device streams images of a page of a book on a display. The device accesses a corresponding digital document that is a digital version of content printed on the book. In an example, the digital document has a digital user marking, e.g., a comment associated with a paragraph of the digital document, wherein a corresponding paragraph of the physical book lacks any such comment. When the device streams the images of the page of the book on the display, the device appends the digital comment on the paragraph of the page of the book within the image stream. Thus, the user can view the digital comment in the AR environment, while reading the physical book.

  • Patent number: 10991085
    Abstract: Embodiments herein describe a framework for classifying images. In some embodiments, it is determined whether an image includes synthetic image content. If it does, characteristics of the image are analyzed to determine if the image includes characteristics particular to panoramic images (e.g., possess a threshold equivalency of pixel values among the top and/or bottom boundaries of the image, or a difference between summed pixel values of the pixels comprising the right vertical boundary of the image and summed pixel values of the pixels comprising the left vertical boundary of the image being less than or equal to a threshold value). If the image includes characteristics particular to panoramic images, the image is classified as a synthetic panoramic image. If the image is determined to not include synthetic image content, a neural network is applied to the image and the image is classified as one of non-synthetic panoramic or non-synthetic non-panoramic.

  • Patent number: 10957103
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for performing dynamic mapping between a virtual environment and a real-world space. During dynamic mapping, a current virtual scene of the virtual environment that is within view of a user is prioritized over areas of the virtual environment that are out of view. The dynamic mapping between the virtual environment and the real-world space can be utilized to render a virtual scene for user in real-time. As a user interacts and/or moves within the virtual environment, dynamic mapping can be performed in real-time to capture any dynamic changes to the real-world space and/or the virtual environment.
