A device with a display and a touch-sensitive surface: displays a geographic map in a first mode of an application, the geographic map including a plurality of landmarks, the geographic map being displayed at a first magnification level; detects a first input, the first input including a first finger contact at a location on the touch-sensitive surface that corresponds to a first landmark on the display; in response to detecting the first input: when the first input does not satisfy one or more predefined mode-change conditions, changes the magnification level in accordance with the first input and remains in the first mode; and when the first input satisfies the mode-change conditions, selects the first landmark and enters a second mode of the application; while in the second mode, detects a second input; and, in response to detecting the second input, displays information about the first landmark.

Device, method, and graphical user interface for navigation of information in a map-based interface

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for interaction between a user and a machine. In one implementation, a system is provided that receives an input from a user of a mobile machine which indicates or describes an object in the world. In one example, the user may gesture to the object which is detected by a visual sensor. In another example, the user may verbally describe the object which is detected by an audio sensor. The system receiving the input may then determine which object near the location of the user that the user is indicating. Such a determination may include utilizing known objects near the geographic location of the user or the autonomous or mobile machine.

Systems and methods for relative representation of spatial objects and disambiguation in an interface

Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for interaction between a user and a machine. In one implementation, machine status information for the machine is received at a dedicated machine component. The machine status information is published onto a distributed node system network of the machine. The machine status information is ingested at a primary interface controller, and an interactive user interface is generated using the primary interface controller. The interactive user interface is generated based on the machine status information. In some implementations, input is received from the user at the primary interface controller through the interactive user interface, and a corresponding action is delegated to one or more subsystems of the machine using the distributed node system network.

Systems and methods for generating an interactive user interface

An AR system that leverages a pre-generated 3D model of the world to improve rendering of 3D graphics content for AR views of a scene, for example an AR view of the world in front of a moving vehicle. By leveraging the pre-generated 3D model, the AR system may use a variety of techniques to enhance the rendering capabilities of the system. The AR system may obtain pre-generated 3D data (e.g., 3D tiles) from a remote source (e.g., cloud-based storage), and may use this pre-generated 3D data (e.g., a combination of 3D mesh, textures, and other geometry information) to augment local data (e.g., a point cloud of data collected by vehicle sensors) to determine much more information about a scene, including information about occluded or distant regions of the scene, than is available from the local data.

Adaptive vehicle augmented reality display using stereographic imagery

A multitouch device can interpret and disambiguate different gestures related to manipulating a displayed image of a 3D object, scene, or region. Examples of manipulations include pan, zoom, rotation, and tilt. The device can define a number of manipulation modes, including one or more single-control modes such as a pan mode, a zoom mode, a rotate mode, and/or a tilt mode. The manipulation modes can also include one or more multi-control modes, such as a pan/zoom/rotate mode that allows multiple parameters to be modified simultaneously.

Disambiguation of multitouch gesture recognition for 3D interaction

Communications devices and methods perform spatial, visual content and a separate preview of other content apart from the performed content. Content may include 3-D performances or AR content. Immersive visual content may be received by the communications device and simplified into transcript cells and/or performed render nodes based on metadata, visual attributes, and/or capabilities of the communications device for performance. Render nodes may preview other content, which is performable and selectable with ease from the communications device. Devices may perform both a piece of content and display, in context, render nodes for other visual content, as well as buffer and prepare unseen other content such that a user may seamlessly preview, select, and perform other visual content. Example GUIs may arrange nodes at a distance or arrayed long a selection line in the same coordinates as performed visual content. Users may input commands to move between or modify the nodes.

Systems and methods for presentation of and interaction with immersive content

Augmented reality display

Methods, systems and apparatus are described to dynamically generate map textures. A client device may obtain map data, which may include one or more shapes described by vector graphics data. Along with the one or more shapes, embodiments may include texture indicators linked to the one or more shapes. Embodiments may render the map data. For one or more shapes, a texture definition may be obtained. Based on the texture definition, a client device may dynamically generate a texture for the shape. The texture may then be applied to the shape to render a current fill portion of the shape. In some embodiments the render map view is displayed.

Systems and methods for determining an object through a disambiguated selection in a mixed reality interface

Methods, hardware, and software create augmented reality through several distinct users. Different users may select locations for the augmented reality creation and add augmented objects, elements, and other perceivables to underlying reality through separate communications devices. The users may interface with a GUI for augmenting underlying media, including use of several tools to add particular and separate augmented features. Users may take turns separately editing and adding augmented elements, and once the users are finished collaborating, the resulting augmented reality can be shared with others for re-creation and performance at the selected locations. Users may invite each other to collaborate on augmented reality through the GUI as well, potentially in a contact-based invitation method or any other known communication or chat configuration.

Systems and methods for shared creation of augmented reality

Methods and apparatus for a map tool on a mobile device for implementing cartographically aware gestures directed to a map view of a map region. The map tool may base a cartographically aware gesture on an actual gesture input directed to a map view and based on map data for the map region that may include metadata corresponding to elements within the map region. The map tool may then determine, based on one or more elements of the map data, a modification to be applied to an implementation to the gesture. Given the modification to the gesture implementation, the map tool may then render, based on performing the modification to the gesture, an updated map view instead of an updated map view based solely on the user gesture.
