  • Publication number: 20220130120
    Abstract: A cross reality system enables any of multiple types of devices to efficiently and accurately access previously stored maps and render virtual content specified in relation to those maps. The cross reality system may include a cloud-based localization service that responds to requests from devices to localize with respect to a stored map. Devices of any type, with native hardware and software configured for augmented reality operations may be configured to work with the cross reality system by incorporating components that interface between the native AR framework of the device and the cloud-based localization service. These components may present position information about the device in a format recognized by the localization service. Additionally, these components may filter or otherwise process perception data provided by the native AR framework to increase the accuracy of localization.

  • Publication number: 20220092852
    Abstract: A cross reality system that provides an immersive user experience by storing persistent spatial information about the physical world that one or multiple user devices can access to determine position within the physical world and that applications can access to specify the position of virtual objects within the physical world. Persistent spatial information enables users to have a shared virtual, as well as physical, experience when interacting with the cross reality system. Further, persistent spatial information may be used in maps of the physical world, enabling one or multiple devices to access and localize into previously stored maps, reducing the need to map a physical space before using the cross reality system in it. Persistent spatial information may be stored as persistent coordinate frames, which may include a transformation relative to a reference orientation and information derived from images in a location corresponding to the persistent coordinate frame.

  • Publication number: 20220048492
    Abstract: Techniques involve an air flow assembly to provide pressurized air, e.g., for use by an air-cushion vehicle (ACV) or other craft. The air flow assembly includes a volute having a central chamber, a lift duct, and a thruster duct. The air flow assembly further includes a set of guide members disposed between the central chamber and the thruster duct, and linkage coupled to the set of guide members. The linkage is constructed and arranged to transition the set of guide members between a closed configuration in which the set of guide members closes an opening between the central chamber and the thruster duct, and an opened configuration in which the set of guide members opens the opening between the central chamber and the thruster duct.

  • Publication number: 20210369106
    Abstract: A system and method for selecting an intraocular lens, for implantation into an eye, includes a controller having a processor and a tangible, non-transitory memory on which instructions are recorded. The controller is configured to selectively execute a machine learning model trained with a training dataset. Execution of the instructions by the processor causes the controller to obtain pre-operative objective data for the patient, including one or more anatomic eye measurements. The controller is configured to obtain pre-operative questionnaire data for the patient, including at least one personality trait. The pre-operative objective data and the pre-operative questionnaire data are entered as respective inputs to the machine learning model. A predicted subjective outcome score for the patient is generated as an output of the machine learning model. The intraocular lens is selected based in part on the predicted subjective outcome score.

  • Publication number: 20210264674
    Abstract: A system form localizing an electronic device with dynamic buffering identifies, from the buffer, a first set of features that is extracted from a first image captured by the electronic device and receives, at the system, a second set of features that is extracted from a second image captured by the electronic device. The system further determines a first characteristic for the first set of features and a second characteristic for the second set of features and determines whether a triggering condition for dynamically changing a size of the buffer is satisfied based at least in part upon the first characteristic for the first set of features and the second characteristic for the second set of features.

  • Publication number: 20210256768
    Abstract: A cross reality system enables any of multiple devices to efficiently access previously stored maps. Both stored maps and tracking maps used by portable devices may have any of multiple types of location metadata associated with them. The location metadata may be used to select a set of candidate maps for operations, such as localization or map merge, that involve finding a match between a location defined by location information from a portable device and any of a number of previously stored maps. The types of location metadata may prioritized for use in selecting the subset. To aid in selection of candidate maps, a universe of stored maps may be indexed based on geo-location information. A cross reality platform may update that index as it interacts with devices that supply geo-location information in connection with location information and may propagate that geo-location information to devices that do not supply it.

  • Publication number: 20210209859
    Abstract: An augmented reality viewing system is described. A local coordinate frame of local content is transformed to a world coordinate frame. A further transformation is made to a head coordinate frame and a further transformation is made to a camera coordinate frame that includes all pupil positions of an eye. One or more users may interact in separate sessions with a viewing system. If a canonical map is available, the earlier map is downloaded onto a viewing device of a user. The viewing device then generates another map and localizes the subsequent map to the canonical map.

  • Publication number: 20210195092
    Abstract: A method includes capturing an image using a content capture device with an initial image setting. The image includes a plurality of pixel groups, and a pixel group can have one or more pixels. A plurality of edge pixel groups is identified and then classified into two subsets. A first subset of saturated edge pixel groups includes edge pixel groups that have at least one neighboring pixel group with an image intensity exceeding a saturated intensity value. A second subset of non-saturated edge pixel groups includes edge pixel groups that have no neighboring pixel groups with an image intensity exceeding a saturated intensity value. An adjustment value to the image setting is determined based on a total number of saturated edge pixel groups and a total number of non-saturated edge pixel groups. An updated image is captured with an updated image setting based on the adjustment value.
