    Abstract: Systems and methods for image based location estimation are described. In one example embodiment, a first positioning system is used to generate a first position estimate. Point cloud data describing an environment is then accessed. A two-dimensional surface of an image of an environment is captured, and a portion of the image is matched to a portion of key points in the point cloud data. An augmented reality object is then aligned within one or more images of the environment based on the match of the point cloud with the image. In some embodiments, building façade data may additionally be used to determine a device location and place the augmented reality object within an image.

    Abstract: Described are systems and methods for generating personalized videos with customized text messages. An example method commences with receiving an input text and a video template. The video template includes a sequence of frame images and text parameters defining an animation of the input text for the sequence of frame images. The method continues with rendering an output video. The output video includes the sequence of frame images featuring the input text rendered according to the text parameters. The method further includes providing a user with an option to change at least one text parameter of the text parameters. The method continues with dynamically changing, by the at least one computing resource, the input text according to the at least one text parameter. The method further includes providing, by the at least one computing resource, the output video to at least one further computing resource via a communication chat.

    Abstract: Aspects of the present disclosure involve a system comprising a computer-readable storage medium storing a program and method for providing audio with captured video clips. The program and method provide for displaying, by a messaging application, a capture user interface for capturing video; providing a camera mode selection element which is selectable to switch between a first camera mode for capturing a single video clip and a second camera mode for capturing multiple video clips, to generate a media content item; providing an audio selection element which is selectable to select an audio track for the media content item; receiving, via the camera mode selection element, first user input selecting the second camera mode; receiving, via the audio selection element, second user input selecting the audio track; and providing for capturing multiple video clips in association with the selected audio track for generating the media content item.

    Abstract: Method for generating haptic feedback responses using haptic augmentations starts with processor receiving a media content item from a first client device and receiving from the first client device a selection of a haptic overlay associated with a haptic feedback response to be applied to the media content item. The processor generates a modified media content item by overlaying the haptic overlay on the media content item. The processor receives from the first client device a selection of a second user associated with the second user and causes the modified media content item to be displayed by a second user interface of the second client device. The processor detects a selection of the haptic overlay from the second client device, and in response to detecting the selection of the haptic overlay, causing the second user interface to generate the haptic feedback response. Other embodiments are described herein.

    Abstract: Disclosed is a of monitoring the breathing of a user, comprising receiving a plurality of audio signals from a plurality of microphones and beamforming the plurality of audio signals into a beamformed audio signal. Observed breath-related parameters are derived from the beamformed audio signal and an output of or derived from the observed breath-related parameters is provided to a user of a client device. Breath metrics may be determined by comparing the observed breath-related parameters with reference breath-related parameters, and a breathing score may be derived from the breath metrics. The breathing score may be based on a combination of how closely an observed respiration of the user matches a prompted or desired respiration rate and an observed amount of time that the user's observed respiration rate is within a threshold value of the prompted or desired respiration rate.

    Abstract: A server machine modifies an augmented reality (AR) object in response to fulfillment of a condition. The machine provides, to a user device, object data that defines the AR object. The object data specifies a physical geolocation of the AR object, a presentation attribute of the AR object, a conditional modification program, and a trigger condition for execution of the conditional modification program. The object data causes the user device to present the AR object with a first appearance, located at the physical geolocation. The machine detects fulfillment of the trigger condition, and in response, the machine executes the conditional modification program. This modifies the object data by modifying the presentation attribute. The machine provides, to the user device, the modified object data, which causes the user device to present the AR object with a second appearance based on the modified presentation attribute.
