Abstract:
Apparatuses, methods, and storage media for modifying augmented reality in response to user interaction are described. In one instance, the apparatus for modifying augmented reality may include a processor, a scene capture camera coupled with the processor to capture a physical scene, and an augmentation management module to be operated by the processor. The augmentation management module may obtain and analyze the physical scene, generate one or more virtual articles to augment a rendering of the physical scene based on a result of the analysis, track user interaction with the rendered augmented scene, and modify or complement the virtual articles in response to the tracked user interaction. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
Abstract:
Computer-readable storage media, computing devices, and methods associated with an adaptive learning environment associated with an adaptive learning environment are disclosed. In embodiments, a computing device may include an instruction module and an adaptation module operatively coupled with the instruction module. The instruction module may selectively provide instructional content of one of a plurality of instructional content types to a user of the computing device via one or more output devices coupled with the computing device. The adaptation module may determine, in real-time, an engagement level associated with the user of the computing device and may cooperate with the instruction module to dynamically adapt the instructional content provided to the user based at least in part on the engagement level determined. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
This disclosure pertains to machine object determination based on human interaction. In general, a device such as a robot may be capable of interacting with a person (e.g., user) to select an object. The user may identify the target object for the device, which may determine whether the target object is known. If the device determines that target object is known, the device may confirm the target object to the user. If the device determines that the target object is not known, the device may then determine a group of characteristics for use in determining the object from potential target objects, and may select a characteristic that most substantially reduces a number of potential target objects. After the characteristic is determined, the device may formulate an inquiry to the user utilizing the characteristic. Characteristics may be selected until the device determines the target object and confirms it to the user.
Abstract:
An augmented reality (AR) device includes a 3D video camera to capture video images and corresponding depth information, a display device to display the video data, and an AR module to add a virtual 3D model to the displayed video data. A depth mapping module generates a 3D map based on the depth information, a dynamic scene recognition and tracking module processes the video images and the 3D map to detect and track a target object within a field of view of the 3D video camera, and an augmented video rendering module renders an augmented video of the virtual 3D model dynamically interacting with the target object. The augmented video is displayed on the display device in real time. The AR device may further include a context module to select the virtual 3D model based on context data comprising a current location of the augmented reality device.
Abstract:
Computer-readable storage media, computing device and methods associated with dynamic modification of a rendering of a physical scene. In embodiments, one or more computer-readable storage media may have instructions stored thereon which, when executed by a computing device, may provide the computing device with a dynamic augmentation module. The dynamic augmentation module may, in some embodiments, cause the computing device to receive a manipulation of a physical scene. In response to receipt of the manipulation, the dynamic augmentation module may cause the computing device to dynamically modify a rendering of the physical scene. In some embodiments, this may be accomplished through real-time application of one or more virtual articles to the rendering of the physical scene or alteration of one or more virtual articles added to the rendering of the physical scene. Other embodiments may be described and/or claimed.
Abstract:
Systems and methods may provide for receiving a short range signal from a sensor that is collocated with a short range display and using the short range signal to detect a user interaction. Additionally, a display response may be controlled with respect to a long range display based on the user interaction. In one example, the user interaction includes one or more of an eye gaze, a hand gesture, a face gesture, a head position or a voice command, that indicates one or more of a switch between the short range display and the long range display, a drag and drop operation, a highlight operation, a click operation or a typing operation.
Abstract:
A mechanism is described for facilitating smart measurement of body dimensions despite loose clothing and/or other obscurities according to one embodiment. A method of embodiments, as described herein, includes capturing, by one or more capturing/sensing components of a computing device, a scan of a body of a user, and computing one or more primary measurements relating to one or more primary areas of the body, where the one or more primary measurements are computed based on depth data of the one or more primary areas of the body, where the depth data is obtained from the scan. The method may further include receiving at least one of secondary measurements and a three-dimensional (3D) avatar of the body based on the primary measurements, and preparing a report including body dimensions of the body based on at least one of the secondary measurements and the 3D avatar, and presenting the report at a display device.

Abstract:
Systems, apparatuses, and/or methods to augment reality. An object identifier may identify an object in a field of view of a user that includes a reflection of the user from a reflective surface, such as a surface of a traditional mirror. In addition, a reality augmenter may generate an augmented reality object based on the identification of the object. In one example, eyeglasses including a relatively transparent display screen may be coupled with an image capture device on the user and the augmented reality object may be observable by the user on the transparent display screen when the user wears the eyeglasses. A localizer may position the augmented reality object on the transparent display screen relative to the reflection of the user that passes though the transparent display screen during natural visual perception of the reflection by the user.
