Abstract:
A vehicle has a plurality of control apparatuses, a user input, a geographic position component, an object detection apparatus, memory, and a display. A processor is also included and is programmed to receive the destination information, identify a route, and determine the current geographic location of the vehicle. The processor is also programmed to identify an object and object type based on object information received from the object detection apparatus and to determine at least one warning characteristic of the identified object based on at least one of: the object type, a detected proximity of the detected object to the vehicle, the location of the detected object relative to predetermined peripheral areas of the vehicle, the current geographic location of the vehicle, and the route. The processor is also configured to select and display on the display an object warning image based on the at least one warning characteristic.

Abstract:
In at least one general aspect, a method can include detecting an interaction with a first object in a virtual reality (VR) environment, producing first contextual information based on user interaction with the first object, determining a second object to display in the VR environment based on the first contextual information, and presenting the second object in the VR environment. The interaction of the user may include at least one of a movement, a speech, or a physiological trait of the user.
Abstract:
In at least one aspect, a method can include determining a location of a head mounted display (HMD) of a user, defining a location of a joint based on the location of the HMD, defining a segment from the joint to an end of the segment, defining an initial virtual location of a virtual controller within a virtual reality (VR) environment based on a location of the end of the segment, and defining a virtual location and a virtual orientation of the virtual controller within the VR environment, based on the segment and the joint, in response to an orientation movement of a physical controller.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are described for generating a virtual environment including at least one three-dimensional virtual object within a user interface provided in a head mounted display device, detecting a first interaction pattern and a second interaction pattern. In response to detecting the second interaction pattern, a modified version of the three-dimensional virtual object at the first virtual feature is generated according to the first interaction pattern and at the second virtual feature according to the second interaction pattern. The modified version of the three-dimensional virtual object is provided in the user interface in the head mounted display device.
Abstract:
In one general aspect, a method can include executing, by a computing device, a virtual reality (VR) application, providing, by the computing device, content for display on a screen of a VR headset in a VR space, the content including at least one object being associated with an action, detecting a first movement of a user immersed in the VR space towards the at least one object included in the VR space, and performing the associated action in the VR space based on detecting the first movement.
Abstract:
In a system for determining intent of a detected virtual contact between a user and a virtual object in a virtual reality environment, contact maybe detected between a designated selection device, manipulated by the user, and the virtual object. It may then be determined whether or not the detected contact between the designated selection device and the virtual object is intention. Determination of whether or not the detected contact is intentional may be based on at least one of an approach direction of the virtual contact with the virtual object, an approach velocity of the virtual contact with the virtual object, or an approach acceleration of the virtual contact with the virtual object.
