  • Patent number: 10623666
    Abstract: Systems, devices, media, and methods are presented for presentation of modified objects within a video stream. The systems and methods receive a selection at a user interface of a computing device and determine a modifier context based at least in part on the selection and a position within the user interface. The systems and methods identify at least one set of modifiers based on the modifier context. The systems and methods determine an order for the set of modifiers based on the modifier context and cause presentation of modifier icons for the set of modifiers within the user interface.

  • Patent number: 11233952
    Abstract: Systems, devices, media and methods are presented for presentation of modified objects within a video stream. The systems and methods select an object of interest depicted within a user interface based on an associated image modifier, determine a modifier context based at least in part on one or more characteristics of the selected object, identify a set of image modifiers based on the modifier context, rank a first portion of the identified set of image modifiers based on a primary ordering characteristic, rank a second portion of the identified set of image modifiers based on a secondary ordering characteristic and cause presentation of the modifier icons for the ranked set of image modifiers.

  • Publication number: 20210233310
    Abstract: In various example embodiments, a system and methods are presented for generation and manipulation of three dimensional (3D) models. The system and methods cause presentation of an interface frame encompassing a field of view of an image capture device. The systems and methods detect an object of interest within the interface frame, generate a movement instruction with respect to the object of interest, and detect a first change in position and a second change in position of the object of interest. The systems and methods generate a 3D model of the object of interest based on the first change in position and the second change in position.
