Abstract: One exemplary implementation involves performing operations at a device with one or more processors, a camera, and a computer-readable storage medium, such as a desktop computer, laptop computer, tablet, or mobile phone. The device receives a data object corresponding to three dimensional (3D) content from a separate device. The device receives input corresponding to a user selection to view the 3D content in a computer generated reality (CGR) environment, and in response, displays the CGR environment at the device. To display the CGR environment the device uses the camera to capture images and constructs the CGR environment using the data object and the captured images.

Abstract: Various implementations disclosed herein include devices, systems, and methods that enable two or more devices to simultaneously view or edit the same 3D model in the same or different settings/viewing modes (e.g., monoscopically, stereoscopically, in SR, etc.). In an example, one or more users are able to use different devices to interact in the same setting to view or edit the same 3D model using different views from different viewpoints. The devices can each display different views from different viewpoints of the same 3D model and, as changes are made to the 3D model, consistency of the views on the devices is maintained.

Abstract: This disclosure relates generally to the field of image processing and, more particularly, to various techniques and animation tools for allowing 2D and 3D graphics rendering and animation infrastructures to be able to dynamically render customized animations—without the need for the customized animations to be explicitly tied to any particular graphical entity. These so-called entity agnostic animations may then be integrated into “mixed” graphical scenes (i.e., scenes with both two-dimensional and three-dimensional components), where they may be: applied to any suitable graphical entity; visualized in real-time by the programmer; edited dynamically by the programmer; and shared across various computing platforms and environments that support the entity agnostic animation tools described herein.

Abstract: A method of assembling a tile map can include assigning each tile in a plurality of tiles to one or more color groups in correspondence with a measure of a color profile of the respective tile: A position of each tile in relation to one or more neighboring tiles can be determined from a position of a silhouette corresponding to each respective tile in relation to one or more neighboring silhouettes within a set containing a plurality of silhouettes. The plurality of tiles can be automatically assembled into a tile map, with a position of each tile in the tile map being determined from the color group to which the respective tile belongs and the determined position of the respective tile in relation to the one or more neighboring tiles. Tangible, non-transitory computer-readable media can include computer executable instructions that, when executed, cause a computing environment to implement disclosed methods.
