Feature Tracking And Dynamic Feature Addition In An Augmented Reality Environment

View page
US Patent:
20180082430, Mar 22, 2018
Filed:
Sep 21, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/271425
Inventors:
- Arlington VA, US
Anand Prakash - San Jose CA, US
Devin Blong - Penngrove CA, US
Qing Zhang - Cupertino CA, US
Chetan Mugur Nagaraj - Fremont CA, US
Srivatsan Rangarajan - Fremont CA, US
International Classification:
G06T 7/20
G06T 11/60
G06T 7/00
G06K 9/00
Abstract:
A mobile device stores a target image and target image data collected contemporaneously with the target image. The mobile device receives a reference position indication that corresponds to the target image data and receives a video feed from a camera while the mobile device is in the reference position. The mobile device detects a match between a first image from the video feed and the target image, unlocks an augmented reality space, and instructs presentation of a virtual object within the augmented reality space. The mobile device receives sensor data and a continuing video feed from the camera, compares a second image from the continuing video feed with the first image, and identify common features in the first and second images. The mobile device detects a location change based on the sensor data and changes in the common features between the first and second images.

US Patent:
20180082475, Mar 22, 2018
Filed:
Sep 21, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/271409
Inventors:
- Arlington VA, US
Anand Prakash - San Jose CA, US
Devin Blong - Penngrove CA, US
Qing Zhang - Cupertino CA, US
Chetan Mugur Nagaraj - Fremont CA, US
Srivatsan Rangarajan - Fremont CA, US
Eric Miller - Scotts Valley CA, US
International Classification:
G06T 19/00
G09G 5/00
G06T 7/00
G06T 7/60
G06K 9/62
G06K 9/46
G06K 9/52
Abstract:
Systems described herein allow for placement and presentation of virtual objects using mobile devices with a single camera lens. A device receives, from a first mobile device, a target image captured from a camera and target image data collected contemporaneously with the target image. The target image data includes a geographic location, a direction heading, and a tilt. The device receives, from the first mobile device, a first virtual object definition that includes an object type, a size, and a mobile device orientation for presenting a first virtual object within a video feed. The device generates a simplified model of the target image, and stores the first virtual object definition associated with the target image data and the simplified model of the target image. The device uploads the first virtual object definition and the target image data, so the first virtual object is discoverable by a second mobile device.

US Patent:
20170208362, Jul 20, 2017
Filed:
Jan 19, 2016
Appl. No.:
15/000946
Inventors:
- Arlington VA, US
Devin Blong - Penngrove CA, US
Tushar Chaudhary - San Francisco CA, US
Manish Sharma - San Jose CA, US
International Classification:
H04N 21/442
H04L 29/08
H04N 21/4788
H04N 21/258
H04N 21/234

US Patent:
20170142763, May 18, 2017
Filed:
Nov 17, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/943960
Inventors:
- Arlington VA, US
Manish Sharma - San Jose CA, US
Devin Blong - Penngrove CA, US
Kevin Flores - San Jose CA, US
Tushar Chaudhary - Mountain View CA, US
Gaurav Gupta - Fremont CA, US
International Classification:
H04W 76/02
H04W 8/00
H04W 4/00
Abstract:
Techniques described herein may be used to enable a user device (e.g., a smartphone, a tablet computer, etc.) to access network services without having to be connected to a network (e.g., a wireless telecommunications network). A first user device may communicate discovery packets in search of other user devices to which the first user device may connect. The first user device may identify a second user device (as a result of sending the discover packets). The first and second user devices may obtain configuration parameters (e.g., a communication channel allocation, encryption keys, synchronization information, etc.) and may establish a D2D connection based on the configuration parameters. The D2D connection may enable the first and second user devices to communicate with another as though the user devices were connected to a wireless telecommunications network (e.g., via telephone calls, video calls, simple messaging services (SMS) messages, instant messages, etc.).

Content Inference Engine Based On User Behavior

US Patent:
20170078225, Mar 16, 2017
Filed:
Sep 16, 2015
Appl. No.:
14/855554
Inventors:
- Arlington VA, US
Devin Blong - Penngrove CA, US
Paresh Vakhariya - Cupertino CA, US
Kevin Flores - San Jose CA, US
I-Han Chen - Fremont CA, US
International Classification:
H04L 12/58
H04L 12/24
G06Q 30/02
H04L 29/08
Abstract:
Techniques described herein may be used to analyze written messages between users (e.g., messages in a mobile messaging application, simple messaging service (SMS) messages, instant messages, etc.) to identify media content being discussed by the users. Additionally, the opinions of the users regarding the media content (e.g., favorable, unfavorable, etc.) may be deciphered and used to update user profiles. The updated user profiles may be used to provide media content recommendations for the users, targeted marketing to the users, rating scores for the media content, and user reviews for the media content. The analysis of the written message may also enable the written messages to be organized (e.g., according to topic) within a graphic user interface (GUI) of each user device.

Inventors:
- Arlington VA, US
Manish SHARMA - San Jose CA, US
Devin BLONG - Penngrove CA, US
Kevin FLORES - San Jose CA, US
Tushar CHAUDHARY - Mountain View CA, US
International Classification:
G06Q 30/02
H04N 21/45

H04N 21/442
H04N 21/25
H04N 21/466
H04N 21/2547
H04N 21/81
H04N 21/472
Abstract:
A device receives, from a client device, a first request associated with target audience criteria and a time constraint. Based on the target audience criteria, the device sends, to an information device, a network state request. In response to the network state request, the device receives, from the information device, a network state response including user data associated with user devices. Based on the network state response, the device determines a predicted network state, including predicted user data associated with the user devices, associated with the time constraint. Based on the predicted network state and the target audience criteria, the device determines a predicted quantity of user devices associated with both the target audience criteria and the time constraint. The device sends, to the client device, a first response based on the determination of the predicted quantity of user devices.
