  • Patent number: 11917011
    Abstract: A method by a rendering device includes receiving a request to render multiple surfaces corresponding to multiple virtual objects to be concurrently displayed on an augmented-reality (AR) headset. The method further includes that the AR headset is connected to the rendering device via a wireless link. In response to a determination that a network quality of the wireless link is below a threshold condition, the method further includes selecting a first subset of the multiple surfaces that are higher priority than a second subset of the plurality of surfaces. The method includes transmitting the first subset of multiple surfaces to the AR headset for display and transmitting the second subset of multiple surfaces to the AR headset for display after transmitting the first subset. This method includes rendering the surfaces in accordance with a set of rendering parameters so as to satisfy one or more network constraints.

  • Publication number: 20220230352
    Abstract: One embodiment is directed to controlling a computing system based on an interpreted user intention. Another embodiment is directed to generating a smoothed position of a feature based upon detected and reprojected positions of the feature. Another embodiment is directed to performing one or more image treatments on a facial region of a user until the perceived SQS satisfies the predetermined target SQS. Another embodiment is directed to video conferencing monitoring the quality of video feed coming from the participants of the video conferencing and creating an image or video from the feed when that participant's feed is good and replacing the live video with the newly created good quality image or video when the feed is bad. Another embodiment is directed to a process of baked triplanar projection using triangles generated from a tessellation, where the baked triplanar projection can generate a 2D mesh including UV coordinates.
