  • Publication number: 20230351715
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a method of intermingling stereoscopic and conforming virtual content to a bounded surface is performed at a device that includes one or more processors, non-transitory memory, and one or more displays. The method includes displaying a bounded surface within a native user computer-generated reality (CGR) environment, wherein the bounded surface is displayed based on a first set of world coordinates characterizing the native user CGR environment. The method further includes displaying a first stereoscopic virtual object within a perimeter of a first side of the bounded surface, wherein the first stereoscopic virtual object is displayed in accordance with a second set of world coordinates that is different from the first set of world coordinates characterizing the native user CGR environment.

  • Patent number: 11769641
    Abstract: Embodiments provide an Energy Reduction Maintenance Setting (ERMS) key that includes a data connector configured to communicatively couple to a data port of a target device. The ERMS key further includes an illumination device and an actuator mechanism having a base positional state and an actuated positional state. The ERMS key includes logic configured to, upon detecting the actuator mechanism has moved from the base positional state to the actuated positional state, generate and transmit a first data message to the target device through the data connector instructing the target device to enter a protected mode. The logic is further configured to, upon receiving a second data message from the target device over the data connector acknowledging that the target device has successfully entered the protected mode, cause the illumination device to illuminate.

  • Patent number: 11750493
    Abstract: Correlating captured packets with synthetic application testing is provided. A device captures packets associated with a plurality of processes that include one or more synthetic transactions and one or more transactions responsive to user input. A packet capture data set can lack process identifiers (PIDs). The device captures first finger-printing data including first PIDs and attributes associated with the plurality of processes, and second finger-printing data comprising second PIDs corresponding to the one or more synthetic transactions. The device applies a first filter generated from the second PIDs in the second finger-printing data to a first finger-printing data set, and a second filter generated from the filtered attributes of a filtered finger-printing data set to the packet capture data set. The device provides a filtered packet capture data set to manage a performance of one or more processes of the plurality of processes.
