  • Augmented windows to display advertisements
    Patent number: 11368660
    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed to display advertisements in an augmented window implemented within a capsule traversing an evacuated tube transportation (ETT) structure, where advertisement(s) are displayed within different perspectives rendered in an augmented window. Additional perspectives are continuously computed for rendering in the augmented window each time a passenger moves to a different location within the capsule, where such additional perspectives are derived from pre-recorded video data in real-time and displayed in the display along with the advertisement.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 9, 2020
    Date of Patent: June 21, 2022
    Assignee: Hyperloop Transportation Technologies, Inc.

  • Augmented windows
    Patent number: 10834373
    Abstract: The windowless prototypes of various evacuated tube transportation (ETT) based transportation systems, such as Hyperloop-based transportation systems, has the negative feel of an enclosed space. The lack of any kind of outside reference, the unknown sounds and the tremendous speed of the capsule/pod would surely cause anxiety with several passengers. A representation of the outside world shown within the pod/capsule using augmented windows alleviates this claustrophobic environment. At least for the closest passenger to the window, the illusion of looking out on a landscape is achieved using such augmented windows.
