Abstract: A method, system and computer program product for transitioning between different realities. The distance of the objects from a reference point in the first and second reality environments is determined. For example, the distance of the object's location in the first reality environment from a reference point (e.g., camera system) as well as the distance of the object's location in the second reality environment from the reference point is determined. A determination is made as to whether the likelihood of a transition shock event (e.g., motion sickness) occurring as a user transitions between the first and second reality environments exceeds a threshold value. In response to the likelihood of the transition shock event occurring exceeding the threshold value, the distance of the object from the reference point in the first and/or second reality environments is modified so as to prevent users from experiencing transition shocks when transitioning between realities.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to improving the experience between a patient and a healthcare provider using augmented or virtual reality to supplement a medical communication interaction, such as a pre-operative check-up. In various embodiments of the invention, a method includes measuring a first physiological property of a patient during a communication interaction with a healthcare provider, where the first physiological property includes natural language communicated by the patient, eye movement, breathing rate, and body position. The method includes determining whether the first physiological property is indicative of a negative interaction between the healthcare provider and the patient. If the communication interaction is negative, an indication is provided to the healthcare provider that the communication interaction is negative. An artificial reality display is provided to supplement the communication interaction by demonstrating a medical procedure.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for identifying biases of one or more users during a shared augmented reality session and modifying the display. A first login is detected of an augmented reality. A first set of biases associated with the first user are generated. Visual data is received from a device associated with the first user profile. A masked overlay for display is generated and displayed to the first user based on the received visual data and the first set of biases. A second login of the augmented reality session is received. A second set of biases associated with the second login is generated. In response to analyzing a generated heat map, a positivity score is calculated. Changes are monitored for, in the first set of biases and second set of biases. The masked overlay is displayed.

Abstract: An object of interest in an augmented reality view within a display of an augmented reality device is identified. A location of the object of interest is determined. A plurality of markers related to the object of interest is received. Metadata information associated with each of the plurality of markers is received. The metadata includes an indication of a location of an author of the marker at a time of authorship of the marker. The location of each of the plurality of markers is determined based upon the metadata information. A distance measure between the location of each of the plurality of markers and the location of the object of interest is determined. The plurality of markers are de-duplicated to form a subset of the plurality of markers based upon the determined distance measures. The subset of markers is sent to the augmented reality device.

Abstract: Approaches presented herein enable resuming a context for a group of electronic devices based on a prior activity of the group members. Specifically, a current context of a user electronic device is collected at a conclusion of a first collaboration session. One or more participant electronic devices associated with the user electronic device are identified, either by being in a same location or virtually connected. A current context of each of the identified participant electronic devices is collected. The context of the user electronic device and each of the participant electronic devices are stored in a context database. The current context of the user electronic device and each of the participant electronic devices are resumed at a beginning of a second collaboration session when the user electronic device is resumed (e.g., powered on or brought out of “sleep” mode).

Abstract: A computing system performs file conversion upon format expiration. A computing system evaluates a risk of expiration of a first format associated with a first format object. The computing system determines if the risk of expiration is above a threshold. The computing system identifies in response to determining the risk of expiration is above the threshold, one or more files stored in the first format for conversion. The computing system converts one or more files stored in the first format to a second format. The computing system saves the one or more files in the second format.

Abstract: A computing device includes an interface configured to interface and communicate with a communication system, a memory that stores operational instructions, and processing circuitry, coupled to the interface and memory, that is configured to execute the operational instructions to perform various operations. The computing device generates collaboration data between an owner/user and other user(s) based on existing data content on the computing device and processes the collaboration data to generate collaboration measure(s) associated with the other user(s). The computing device generates an access control list (ACL) that specifies access level(s) for the other user(s). Based on a user request associated with a user to access the existing data content and/or application(s) on the computing device, the computing device determines identity of the user. When the user associated qualifies for access, the computing device selectively authorizes access to access at least some of the existing data content and/or application(s).

Abstract: In one aspect, a computer-implemented method for compressing content based on a social factor, an environmental factor, and a relational factor is described. The method may include monitoring access to the content, forming, by a processor, a contextual evaluation based on the monitored access and determining an importance of the content based on the contextual evaluation. The method may further include storing the content in a compressed form, where the compressed form is selected based on the importance.

Abstract: Processing a media file includes receiving a request for a media file from a client system and determining, using a processor, a non-chronological ordering of a plurality of segments of the media file for buffering according to historical playback data for each of the plurality of segments of the media file. A first segment of the media file is sent for buffering to the client system as specified by the non-chronological ordering of the plurality of segments. The non-chronological ordering is determined prior to sending any segment of the media file to the client system.
