Embodiments include methods performed by a processor of a receiving wireless device for rendering augmented reality content. The methods may include receiving real image data from a transmitting wireless device via a first data stream, and receiving augmented reality (AR) content from the transmitting wireless device via a second data stream that is an alt video stream, in which the AR content is for display with the real image data. Methods may further include displaying the AR content in conjunction with the real image data. In some embodiments, the first data stream and the second data stream are Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) streams.

Enhanced dual video call with augmented reality stream

This disclosure provides systems, devices, apparatus and methods, including computer programs encoded on storage media, for multi-layer reprojection techniques for augmented reality. A display processor may obtain a layer of graphics data including a plurality of virtual objects. Each the plurality of virtual objects may be associated with at least one bounding box of a plurality of bounding boxes. The display processor may further obtain metadata indicative of at least one edge of the at least one bounding box of the plurality of bounding boxes, and metadata corresponding to reprojection instructions associated with each of the plurality of bounding boxes. The display processor may reproject the plurality of virtual objects based on the metadata indicative of the at least one edge of the at least one bounding box and the metadata corresponding to the reprojection instructions.

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for video processing. In one aspect, the apparatus may configure at least one frame of plurality of frames in a video stream. The apparatus may also divide the at least one frame into one or more slices, each of the one or more slices including one or more data packets. The apparatus may also map each of the one or more slices to one of one or more communication channels. The apparatus may also transmit each of the one or more slices including the one or more data packets via the one of the one or more communication channels. In another aspect, the apparatus may receive each of one or more slices via one of one or more communication channels. The apparatus may also decode each of the one or more slices including one or more data packets.

Reliable transmissions in VR and AR systems

Methods, devices, and apparatuses are provided to facilitate a positioning of an item of virtual content in an extended reality environment. For example, a placement position for an item of virtual content can be transmitted to one or more of a first device and a second device. The placement position can be based on correlated map data generated based on first map data obtained from the first device and second map data obtained from the second device. In some examples, the first device can transmit the placement position to the second device.

Content positioning in extended reality systems

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing. Aspects of the present disclosure can render at least one frame including display content at a server. Aspects of the present disclosure can also downscale the at least one frame including the display content, where a downscaling rate of one or more portions of the at least one frame is based on a location of each of the one or more portions. Moreover, aspects of the present disclosure can communicate the downscaled at least one frame including the display content to a client device. Aspects of the present disclosure can also encode the downscaled at least one frame including the display content. Further, aspects of the present disclosure can decode the encoded at least one frame including the display content. Aspects of the present disclosure can also upscale the at least one frame including the display content.

Methods and apparatus for foveated compression

Methods and systems for providing software applications on a client device with dynamic control over low-latency mode (LLM) operations of the client device. The client device may monitor downlink data packets of a client software application operating on the client device to detect trigger events. The client device may determine operating parameters of the modem based on a detected trigger event and dynamically adjust the low-latency mode of the modem based on the detect trigger event or the determined operating parameters.

Techniques and systems are provided for light estimation. In some examples, a system receives a plurality of frames associated with a scene. The plurality of frames includes a first frame and a second frame occurring after the first frame. The system determines, based on image data of the first frame, a first light estimate associated with the scene. The system also determines, based on image data of the second frame, a second light estimate associated with the scene. The system further generates an aggregate light estimate associated with the scene based on combining the second light estimate with at least the first light estimate.

Mechanism for improved light estimation

The present disclosure relates to methods and apparatus for graphics processing. The apparatus can determine an eye-buffer including one or more bounding boxes associated with rendered content in a frame. The apparatus can also generate an atlas based on the eye-buffer, the atlas including one or more patches associated with the one or more bounding boxes. Additionally, the apparatus can communicate the atlas including the one or more patches. The apparatus can also calculate an amount of user motion associated with the rendered content in the frame. Further, the apparatus can determine a size of each of the one or more bounding boxes based on the calculated amount of user motion. The apparatus can also determine a size and location of each of the one or more patches in the atlas.

Methods and apparatus for atlas management of augmented reality content

An improved wireless split rendering system for displaying Extended Reality (XR) content is discussed. A rendering server and client head-mounted device (HMD) may communicate over a wireless medium, where communication control is given to a server application layer logic. This allows the server to use request pose information from the HMD only when needed for rendering, while preserving bandwidth on the wireless medium for transmitting frames of the rendered content. This reduces contention and improves channel efficiency.

Cross layer traffic optimization for split XR

A server includes a processor configured to determine, based on reception of information from a client device, synchronization parameters between a server clock rate associated with the server and a client clock rate associated with the client device. The processor is also configured to determine a client-side generation timestamp for an audio frame based on the synchronization parameters and based on a server-side generation timestamp for the audio frame. The processor is further configured to generate the audio frame. The audio frame includes the client-side timestamp.

Audio playback timing adjustment

Techniques are provided for adaptively controlling an encoding device to allow dynamic insertion intra-coded video content based on feedback information. For example, at least a portion of a video slice of a video frame in a video bitstream can be determined to be missing or corrupted. Feedback information indicating at least the portion of the video slice is missing or corrupted can be sent to an encoding device. An updated video bitstream can be received from the encoding device in response to the feedback information. The updated video bitstream can include at least one intra-coded video slice having a size that is larger than the missing or corrupted video slice. The size of the at least one intra-coded video slice can be determined to cover the missing or corrupted slice and propagated error in the video frame caused by the missing or corrupted slice.

Dynamic video insertion based on feedback information

Methods, devices, and apparatuses are provided to facilitate a positioning of an item of virtual content in an extended reality environment. For example, a first user may access the extended reality environment through a display of a mobile device, and in some examples, the methods may determine positions and orientations of the first user and a second user within the extended reality environment. The methods may also determine a position for placement of the item of virtual content in the extended reality environment based on the determined positions and orientations of the first user and the second user, and perform operations that insert the item of virtual content into the extended reality environment at the determined placement position.
