Publication number: 20240104693Abstract: Generating synthesized data includes capturing one or more frames of a scene at a first frame rate by one or more cameras of a wearable device, determining body position parameters for the frames, and obtaining geometry data for the scene in accordance with the one or more frames. The frames, body position parameters, and geometry data are applied to a trained network which predicts one or more additional frames. With respect to virtual data, generating a synthesized frame includes determining current body position parameters in accordance with the one or more frames, predicting a future gaze position based on the current body position parameters, and rendering, at a first resolution, a gaze region of a frame in accordance with the future gaze position. A peripheral region is predicted for the frame at a second resolution, and the combined regions form a frame that is used to drive a display.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 22, 2023Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventors: Vinay Palakkode, Kaushik Raghunath, Venu M.

Publication number: 20240098234Abstract: A head-mounted device is provided that includes one or more cameras configured to acquire a raw video feed and one or more displays configured to present a passthrough video feed to a user. Generation of the passthrough video feed can involve processing the raw video feed using an image signal processor and auxiliary compute blocks. One or more of the auxiliary compute blocks can be bypassed in response to detecting one or more failures associated with the auxiliary compute blocks. Configured and operated in this way, the head-mounted device can fall back to a more reliable passthrough video feed without having to power cycle the head-mounted device when a failure occurs.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 6, 2023Publication date: March 21, 2024Inventors: Michael C Friedman, Russell L Jones, Kaushik Raghunath, Venu M Duggineni, Ranjit Desai, Manjunath M Venkatesh, Michael J Rockwell, Arun Kannan, Saul H Weiss

Patent number: 11818419Abstract: A mobile device includes a display, at least one sensor, and a wireless transceiver. The mobile device also includes control circuitry coupled to the display, the at least one sensor, and the wireless transceiver. The control circuitry is configured to obtain content primitives from the at least one sensor, to perform content provisioning operations to obtain content based at least in part on the content primitives, and to display the obtained content on the display, wherein at least some of the content is virtual content. In response to a bandwidth condition of the wireless communication channel being less than a threshold, the control circuitry is configured to perform adjusted content provisioning operations that involve increasing an amount of image processing operations performed by the mobile device to obtain the content.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2019Date of Patent: November 14, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Moinul H.

Patent number: 11804019Abstract: One implementation forms a composited stream of computer-generated reality (CGR) content using multiple data streams related to a CGR experience to facilitate recording or streaming. A media compositor obtains a first data stream of rendered frames and a second data stream of additional data. The rendered frame content (e.g., 3D models) represents real and virtual content rendered during a CGR experience at a plurality of instants in time. The additional data of the second data stream relates to the CGR experience, for example, relating to audio, audio sources, metadata identifying detected attributes of the CGR experience, image data, data from other devices involved in the CGR experience, etc. The media compositor forms a composited stream that aligns the rendered frame content with the additional data for the plurality of instants in time, for example, by forming time-stamped, n-dimensional datasets (e.g., images) corresponding to individual instants in time.Type: GrantFiled: March 14, 2022Date of Patent: October 31, 2023Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Ranjit Desai, Venu M.

Patent number: 9330606Abstract: Automatic display brightness adjustments may be made by an electronic device based on ambient light sensor data. Proximity sensor data from a light-based proximity sensor, from nearby capacitive sensor electrodes in a touch screen, or from other proximity sensing components may be used to determine whether the ambient light sensor is being shadowed by a hand or other external object. Ambient light sensor data associated with blocked sensor conditions can be suppressed. A transient event filter may be used to remove spikes from ambient light sensor data. A display brightness baseline may be adaptively adjusted. Short changes in ambient light level may result in corresponding momentary adjustments to display brightness. Longer changes in ambient light level may be associated with persistent changes in the display brightness baseline.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2012Date of Patent: May 3, 2016Assignee: Apple Inc.Inventors: Ulrich Barnhoefer, Venu M.
