    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing at least one program, method, and user interface to facilitate context based augmented reality communication between multiple users over a network. Virtual content item configuration data indicative of a selection by a first user of virtual content item to apply to a real-world environment that is visible to a second user via a second device is received from a first device. The virtual content item configuration data also includes one or more criteria to trigger application of the virtual content item to the real-world environment. A triggering event is detected based on satisfaction of the one or more criteria determined from context data generated at the second device. The second device presents the virtual content item overlaid on the real-world environment that is visible to the second user based on the triggering event.

    Abstract: A method for increasing a dynamic range of a dual-pixel image sensor is described. The method includes detecting an intensity level of a full pixel from a plurality of pixels of an optical sensor, one or more full pixels of the plurality of pixels includes at least two sub-pixels, detecting an intensity level of one or more sub-pixels, detecting that the intensity level of the full pixel of the optical sensor has reached a saturation level of the full pixel, and in response to detecting that the intensity level of the full pixel of the optical sensor has reached the saturation level of the full pixel, computing an extrapolated intensity level of the full pixel based on the intensity level of the one or more sub-pixels.

    Abstract: Examples of the present disclosure improve the functionality of electronic software and systems by enhancing users' experience of utilizing a camera of a client device. The technical problem of generating a video that has the starting point later in time than the starting time of the associated recording session is addressed by providing a real time video editing functionality. In some examples, a real time video editing functionality is in the form of a real time video editor provided by a messaging system for exchanging data over a network.

    Abstract: A system for searching and ranking modifiable videos is provided. In one example embodiment, the system includes a at least one processor and a memory storing processor-executable codes, wherein the at least one processor is configured to implement the following operations upon executing the processor-executable codes: processing a first set of search requests by a first search rule to obtain a first set of first results; processing a second set of search requests by a second search rule to obtain a second set of second results; determining a first metric based, at least partially, on the first set of first results; determining a second metric based at least partially on the second set of second results; selecting, based on the first metric and the second metric, a search rule from the first search rule and the second search rule; and configuring a search engine to apply the search rule.

    Abstract: A method for calibrating a visual-inertial tracking system is described. A device operates the visual-inertial tracking system without receiving a tracking request from a virtual object display application. In response to operating the visual-inertial tracking system, the device accesses sensor data from sensors at the device. The device identifies, based on the sensor data, a first calibration parameter value of the visual-inertial tracking system and stores the first calibration parameter value. The system detects a tracking request from the virtual object display application. In response to the tracking request, the system accesses the first calibration parameter value and determines a second calibration parameter value from the first calibration parameter value.
