  • Publication number: 20240303943
    Abstract: Systems and methods synchronize content of a virtual environment with a state of a physical environment. In aspects, a method includes obtaining sensor data from a network of remote sensors measuring a physical state of a location at a time; generating context specific parameter data based on the sensor data; obtaining context data from a remote virtual reality (VR) system, wherein the context data reflects a current state of virtual content in a virtual environment displayed by the remote VR system; selecting virtual content to be displayed in the virtual environment by the remote VR system based on the context specific parameter data, the context data, and rules; and sending the virtual content to the remote VR system to be displayed to a user, wherein the virtual content reflects a state of the physical location at the time.

  • Publication number: 20230386475
    Abstract: A text to speech system can be implemented by training artificial intelligence models directed to encoding speech characteristics into an audio fingerprint and synthesizing audio based on the fingerprint. The speech characteristics can include a variety of attributes that can occur in natural speech, such as speech variation due to prosody. Speaker identity can, but does not have to, also be used in synthesizing speech. A pipeline using an audio processing device can receive a video clip or a collection of video clips and generate a synthesized video with varying degrees of association with the received video. A user of the pipeline can enter customization to modify the synthesized audio. A trained encoder can generate a fingerprint and a synthesizer can generate synthesized audio based on the fingerprint.

  • Patent number: 10839141
    Abstract: A provisioning system of a first party provisions a mobile software application to one or more remotely-located mobile computing devices, each mobile computing device running a same device-native mobile operating system. The mobile software application may include executable program code and a structured document such that the executable program code and structured document together instantiate at least a portion of the functionality provided by the mobile application. Moreover, in some embodiments, when the requested and sent mobile application is executed by a requesting mobile device, the structured document is transformed into a tree structure which when updated, updates at least in part the running state of the mobile application.

  • Patent number: 10372796
    Abstract: A mobile computing device executes a mobile application received from a provisioning source, the mobile application including at least programming code and at least one structured document that together describe at least a portion of functionality provided by the mobile application. An abstraction layer executing on the mobile computing device populates a Document Object Model (“DOM”) structure, the DOM structure at least in part representing the running state of the mobile application consistent with the portion of the functionality provided by the mobile application described in the received at least one structured document and programming code. The abstraction layer updates a device-independent application user interface, responsive to the reconfiguring of the DOM structure and converts the at least one structured document and the received programming code into a temporary form that is configured to be transmitted, received, and decoded back into an original form on a second mobile device.
