  • Patent number: 12315093
    Abstract: Disclosed herein is an environmental scanning tool that generates a digital model representing the surroundings of a user of an extended reality head-mounted display device. The environment is imaged in both a depth map and in visible light for some select objects of interest. The selected objects exist within the digital model at higher fidelity and resolution than the remaining portions of the model in order to manage the storage size of the digital model. In some cases, the objects of interest are selected, or their higher fidelity scans are directed, by a remote user. The digital model further includes time stamped updates of the environment such that users can view a state of the environment according to various timestamps.

  • Patent number: 12301785
    Abstract: Systems and methods of selectively compressing video data are disclosed. The proposed systems provide a computer-implemented process configured to classify a person's behavior(s) during a video and encode the behaviors as a representation of the video. The encoding will be tailor-generated based on the specific display configuration of the target device at which playback is expected to occur. Target device displays with lower resolution and video quality characteristics will trigger an encoding of the video data that has less complexity than target device displays with higher resolution and video quality characteristics. When playback of the video is requested at the target device, a reconstruction of the video is generated by a video synthesizer based on a reference image of the person and the encoding rather than the original video file, significantly reducing memory, processing, power, and bandwidth requirements.

  • Patent number: 12288570
    Abstract: Systems and methods of compressing video content as encoded data and selectively reconstructing portions of the content are disclosed. The proposed systems provide a computer-implemented process configured to classify a person's behavior(s) during a video and encode the behaviors as a representation of the video. When playback of the video is requested, a video navigation assistant will allow the end-user to select specific segments of the video based on topics discussed in the video and the codes that were generated to represent the video. The user is then able to move through segments of the video in a sequence that aligns with their viewing preferences.

  • Patent number: 12277930
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to on demand generation of curated audio content. Responsive to initiation of an electronic communication by a client, audio relating to a client speaking to the operator can be processed to derive a series of insights relating to features of the audio. Previously recorded audio relating to the operator can be combined with a text-based script to generate audio content. The audio content can be modified using the series of derived insights. The modified audio content can include a series of disclaimers that are played back to the client. Generation of the modified audio content can be dynamically generated responsive to detecting a trigger that allows for on-demand generation of the modified audio content.

  • Patent number: 12266350
    Abstract: Systems and methods are directed toward evaluating auditory inputs against a range of tolerance to provide feedback regarding pronunciation. An auditory input may be evaluated using a trained machine learning system and evaluated for similarity against a target word. Similarity may be scored and then evaluated to determine whether the similarity falls within a range of tolerance, wherein the range of tolerance may be adjusted or modified for particular uses. A score within the range of tolerance is indicative of a word that has been pronounced such that it would be perceptible.

When playback of the video is requested, a reconstruction of the video is generated by a video synthesizer based on a reference image of the person and the sequence of codes corresponding to their behavior during the video. Storage and transmission of the video can then be limited to the reference image and the behavioral codes rather than the video file itself, significantly reducing memory and bandwidth requirements.

  • Patent number: 12056759
    Abstract: The present embodiments relate to augmented reality (AR) device managed object selection and acquisition processing. The client, via a client AR device, can view objects in an environment. The system can process sensor data depicting the environment to identify objects in the environment and determine whether the client has selected a detected object. The system can authenticate an identity of the client (e.g., via iris scanning) and initiate an acquisition process for one or more selected objects. The client can select objects, authenticate the client as an authenticated user, and/or initiate the acquisition process on the AR device directly.

  • Patent number: 11605384
    Abstract: Systems and methods of presenting interrupting content during human speech are disclosed. The proposed systems offer improved duplex communications in conversational AI platforms. In some embodiments, the system receives speech data and evaluates the data using linguistic models. If the linguistic models detect indications of linguistic irregularities such as mispronunciation, a smart feedback assistant can determine that the system should interrupt the speaker in near-real-time and provide feedback regarding their pronunciation. In addition, conversational irregularities may also be detected, causing the smart feedback assistant to interrupt with presentation of moderating guidance. In some cases, emotion models may also be utilized to detect emotional states based on the speaker's voice in order to offer near-immediate feedback. Users can also customize the manner and occasions in which they are interrupted.
