Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, and a method for rendering three-dimensional virtual objects within real-world environments. Virtual rendering of a three-dimensional virtual object can be altered appropriately as a user moves around the object in the real-world through utilization of a redundant tracking system comprising multiple tracking sub-systems. Virtual object rendering can be with respect to a reference surface in a real-world three-dimensional space depicted in a camera view of a mobile computing device.

Abstract: A method is provided that includes displaying, by a computing device, representations of a plurality of stock videos to a user. The representations are at a still image, a partial clip, and/or a full play of the stock video. Each of the representations include a face outline for insertion of a facial image of a user. When the user has provided a self-image to the computing device, the facial image of the user is inserted in the face outline of the representations. The facial image is extracted from the self-image. The method may include receiving a selection of one of the representations of the plurality of stock videos, and displaying a personalized video including a selected stock video with the facial image positioned within a further face outline corresponding to the face outline of the selected representation.

Abstract: System, methods, devices, and instructions are described for fast boot of a processor as part of camera operation. In some embodiments, in response to a camera input, a digital signal processor (DSP) of a device is booted using a first set of instructions. Capture of image sensor data is initiated using the first set of instructions at the DSP. The DSP then receives a second set of instructions and the DSP is programmed using the second set of instructions after at least a first frame of the image sensor data is stored in a memory of the device. The first frame of the image sensor data is processed using the DSP as programmed by the second set of instructions. In some embodiments, the first set of instructions includes only instructions for setting camera sensor values, and the second set of instructions includes instructions for processing raw sensor data into formatted image files.

Abstract: A data package is received from a plurality of devices. Each data package comprises audio content captured by a respective device from the plurality of devices. Each data package further comprises metadata including a location of the respective device when the audio content was captured and a time at which the audio content was captured. A subset of the data packages that include audio content captured within a specified geographic area and within a specified time period is identified based on the metadata. A playlist for the specified area and the specified time period is generated based on the subset of data packages. The playlist may be provided to at least a first device.

Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to anti-tamper computer systems, in particular to methods and systems which can embed protection code into software. Among other things, the protection code helps prevent (and make it more costly) to reverse engineer to tamper with the protected software with malicious intent, such as, but not restricted to: the removal of a license protection mechanism; the removal of code displaying advertisements; the injection of a malicious thread into the program memory space; illicit usage; or any other kind of unauthorized modification of the software.

Abstract: Method of generating customized avatars based on location information includes processor receiving from first client device location information including a location of the first client device. Processor causes a status interface to be displayed on first client device that includes selectable location items corresponding to locations based on the location information. Processor receives a selection from first client device of first selectable location item and causes avatar selection interface to be displayed on first client device that includes versions of first avatar performing actions related to the first selectable location item. Processor receives selection of first selectable version of the first avatar and generates a map interface that includes a map display based on the location information and the first selectable version of the first avatar. Processor causes the map interface to be displayed on at least one of the plurality of client devices. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Method for generating haptic feedback responses based on gestures starts with processor causing communication interface for communication session to be displayed on first user interface and on a second user interface. Processor detects a predetermined gesture by a first user of the first client device on the first user interface. In response to detecting the predetermined gesture by the first user, processor causes the first user interface and the second user interface to generate a haptic feedback response based on the predetermined gesture. Other embodiments are described herein.

Abstract: Three-dimensional object representation and re-rendering systems and methods for producing a 3D representation of an object from 2D images including the object that enables object-centric rendering. A modular approach is used that optimizes a Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) model to estimate object geometry and refine camera parameters and, then, infer surface material properties and per-image lighting conditions that fit the 2D images.
