    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to methods and systems for providing a touch-based augmented reality (AR) experience. During a capture phase, a first user may grip an object. An intensity of a force applied on the object in the grip and/or a duration of the grip may be recorded. A volumetric representation of the first user holding the object may also be captured. During an experience phase, a second user may touch the object, the object may provide haptic feedback (e.g., a vibration) to the second user at an intensity and a duration corresponding to an intensity of the force applied on the object and a duration of the grip of the object. If a volumetric representation of the first user holding the object is captured, touching the object may also cause a presentation of the first user's volumetric body that holds the object.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for providing scan based imaging using an electronic eyewear device. The methods include scanning a scene using the electronic eyewear device to capture at least one image in an environment of a first user and identifying at least one physical marker in the scanned scene. Upon identification of the at least one physical marker in the scanned scene, a message (e.g., preselected AR content) is passively sent to at least one of directly to a second user or to at least one physical marker at a remote location for presentation to the second user. The message may be sent without use of the first user's hands to make a selection. The physical markers may be associated with a fixed object, a human face, a pet, a vehicle, a person, a logo, and the like.

    Abstract: A user context profile is generated based on first context information gathered from at least one device of a first user. The user context profile defines a context to hold message delivery to a first user. The user context profile is enabled for message delivery to the first user. A message is received from a second user directed to the first user. In response to detecting the context defined by the user context profile based on second context information, the message is held for later delivery to the first user and a notification is provided to the second user indicating that the message has not been delivered. Subsequently, based on determining a current context of the first user does not correspond to the context defined by the user context profile, the message is delivered to the at least one device of the first user.

    Abstract: Augmented reality (AR) systems, devices, media, and methods are described for generating AR experiences including interactions with virtual or physical prop objects. The AR experiences are generated by capturing images of a scene with a camera system, identifying an object receiving surface and corresponding surface coordinates within the scene, identifying an AR primary object and a prop object (physical or virtual), establishing a logical connection between the AR primary object and the prop object, generating AR overlays including actions associated with the AR primary object responsive to commands received via a user input system that position the AR primary object adjacent the object receiving surface responsive to the primary object coordinates and the surface coordinates within the scene and that position the AR primary object and the prop object with respect to one another in accordance with the logical connection, and presenting the generated AR overlays with a display system.

    Abstract: An olfactory sticker used in chats between electronic devices to make messaging more immersive, personalized, and authentic by integrating olfactory information with traditional text-based formats and AR messaging. Olfactory stickers are used to indicate to a recipient that a message includes olfactory information. The olfactory sticker illustrates a graphical representation of a particular scent that can be sent and received via a chat or an AR message. Olfactory stickers provide the recipient control of accessing the transmitted scent at a desired time. This is particularly useful since certain olfactory information, i.e., scents, can be very direct and intrusive. Olfactory stickers are activated (i.e., release their scent) when they are tapped or rubbed by the recipient.

    Abstract: A system monitors a user environment via one or more sensors included in a computing device and detects, via a trigger, that event data is stored in a data store based on the monitoring. The system further detects one or more participants in the event data and invites the one or more participants to share an augmented reality event data and/or to a virtual reality event data. The system also creates, based on the event data, an augmented reality event data and/or a virtual reality event data, and presents the augmented reality event data and/or the virtual reality event data to the one or more participants in a synchronous mode and/or in an asynchronous mode, via the computing device.
