Methods and apparatuses are described for intelligent smoothing of 3D alternative reality applications for secondary 2D viewing. A computing device receives a first data set corresponding to a first position of an alternative reality viewing device. The computing device generates a 3D virtual environment for display on the alternative reality viewing device using the first data set, and a 2D rendering of the virtual environment for display on a display device using the first data set. The computing device receives a second data set corresponding to a second position of the alternative reality viewing device after movement of the alternative reality viewing device. The computing device determines whether a difference between the first data set and the second data set is above a threshold. The computing device updates the 2D rendering of the virtual environment on the display device using the second data set, when the difference is above the threshold value.

A computer-implemented method is provided for visualizing multiple objects in a computerized visual environment. The method includes displaying to a user a virtual three-dimensional space via a viewing device worn by the user, and determining a data limit of the viewing device for object rendering. The method includes presenting an initial rendering of the objects within the virtual space, where the visualization data used for the initial rendering does not exceed the data limit of the viewing device. The method also includes tracking user attention relative to the objects as the user navigates through the virtual space and determining, based on the tracking of user attention, one or more select objects from the multiple objects to which the user is paying attention. The one or more select objects are located within a viewing range of the user.

Systems and methods for data visualization in virtual reality environments

Methods and apparatuses are described for user authentication in a three-dimensional (3D) alternative reality software application. A computing device coupled to an alternative reality viewing device generates a 3D virtual environment for display in the alternative reality viewing device, the 3D virtual environment comprising a plurality of 3D objects. The computing device identifies a subset of the plurality of 3D objects selected by the user of the alternative reality viewing device. The computing device captures a first set of actions of the user with respect to the subset of 3D objects, including recording a sequence of the first set of actions. The computing device generates a multidimensional authentication credential for the user based upon the first set of actions and stores the multidimensional authentication credential in a database.

Techniques for searching for products in an inventory of product are disclosed. The techniques receive data that specifies attributes of a product, search inventory of products to determine potential matches or closely related matches to at least some of the attributes of the products, generate messages based on the search of inventory to determine the potential matches, generate positional information associated with the messages and generate a set of informational depictions of the generated messages, with the informational depictions of the messages when rendered on a display device are rendered in juxtaposition with representations of the products according to the generated positional information.

Augmented reality system for product selection

Disclosed are techniques for providing a presentation as a virtual tour through a user's portfolio based on receiving signals that correspond to user movements in the physical world and processing the signals to select generated images associated with the user's movements to generate an image that when rendered on a display device renders a visual representation of the portfolio in a virtual world.

A system includes one or more computer systems configured to receive a plurality of information streams from a corresponding plurality of client systems that have a defined geographic position, analyze the information feeds, generate messages based on the analysis of the information feeds, generate positional information associated with the messages, and generate a set of informational depictions of the generated messages, with the informational depictions of the messages when rendered on a display device are rendered in juxtaposition with representations of the client systems according to the generated positional information.

System for group supervision

Described are computer implemented augmented reality techniques for public and private seminars that includes receive an indication of a start of a segment of a live presentation, the live presentation comprising at least one segment, with the at least one segment having at least one presentation component; receive information related to a plurality of users, receive rules to analyze the information and select from the information, private information pertaining to a particular user, with the selected information being relevant to the at least one presentation component of the at least one segment of the live presentation, generate an image that when rendered on a display device renders the private information pertaining to the particular user for that presentation component, and send the image of the private information to a device associated with the particular user.

Computer-implemented techniques for viewing a recorded presentation are described. The techniques include receiving by one or more computers a request from a user to view a recorded presentation, retrieving, by one or more computing systems, a segment of the recorded presentation that is comprised of plural segments and information specifying times of occurrences of trigger events associated with corresponding segments in the recorded presentation, retrieving by the one or more computers private information of the user relevant to a first segment of the recorded presentation based on a first trigger event, generating, by the one or more computing systems, a re-cast first segment of the recorded presentation, with the re-cast first segment including the private information of the user, and sending by the one or more computing systems, the re-cast segment to a computing device associated with the user.
