  • Publication number: 20220122330
    Abstract: Systems, methods, devices, and other techniques for placing and rendering virtual objects in three-dimensional environments. The techniques include providing, by a device, a view of an environment of a first user. A first computing system associated with the first user receives an instruction to display, within the view of the environment of the first user, a virtual marker at a specified position of the environment of the first user, the specified position derived from a second user's interaction with a three-dimensional (3D) model of at least a portion of the environment of the first user. The device displays, within the view of the environment of the first user, the virtual marker at the specified position of the environment of the first user.

  • Patent number: 10768924
    Abstract: Implementations directed to providing a computer-implemented method for automating vehicle feature updates, the method being executed by one or more processors and comprising receiving telematics data identifying an actual usage of a vehicle; performing a gap analysis between the actual usage of the vehicle and an expected usage of the vehicle; determining a feature update based on the gap analysis; providing the feature update to a product engineering module when the feature cannot be implemented by a software update; and providing the feature update to an onboard computer system when the feature can be implemented by a software update.

  • Patent number: 10712814
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus for performing virtual reality simulations using virtual reality systems. In some aspects a method includes the actions of logging user actions in a virtual reality system, wherein the user actions include one or more of (i) a path traveled by user in the virtual reality system, or (ii) user interactions with objects in the virtual reality system; aggregating logged action over a first user and a second user; and deriving modifications to the virtual reality system based at least in part on the aggregated logged actions. The modifications to the VR system can include modifying at least one of (i) appearance of objects shown in the VR system, (ii) floor plan of the VR system, and (iii) location of objects shown in the VR system.

  • Patent number: 10642567
    Abstract: According to examples, multiplatform based experience generation may include determining a set of connected devices that provide services related to virtual reality, and determining a platform type of each of the connected devices. Multiplatform based experience generation may further include receiving an indication of a modification to an intrinsic property of a virtual object on one of the set of connected devices, and generating, based on the received indication of the modification to the intrinsic property of the virtual object, a modification to a master version of the virtual object. Based on the platform type of another one of the set of connected devices and based on the modification to the master version of the virtual object, an indication of a modification to an intrinsic property of a virtual object on the another one of the set of connected devices may be generated.

  • Patent number: 10373237
    Abstract: A method for processing an order for components includes receiving, at a server, an order that specifies one or more components for procurement and constraints for procuring the one or more components. A processor determines one or more sources capable of providing one or more of the components within the received constraints. At least one of the sources corresponds to a 3D printing facility that prints components via a 3D printing process. The processor communicates one or more orders for procuring the one or more components to the determined one or more sources.
