    Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provides analyzing a recording of content within a field of view of a device, the analyzing including recognition of a set of objects included in the content. The subject technology identifies a subset of the set of objects that are indicated as corresponding to protected content. The subject technology generates a modified version of the recording that obfuscates or filters the subset of the set of objects. Additionally, the subject technology provides the modified version of the recording to a host application for playback.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for gaze-driven recording of video are described. Some implementations may include accessing gaze data captured using one or more gaze-tracking sensors; applying a temporal filter to the gaze data to obtain a smoothed gaze estimate; determining a region of interest based on the smoothed gaze estimate, wherein the region of interest identifies a subset of a field of view; accessing a frame of video; recording a portion of the frame associated with the region of interest as an enhanced frame of video, wherein the portion of the frame corresponds to a smaller field of view than the frame; and storing, transmitting, or displaying the enhanced frame of video.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to display devices. In some embodiments, a display device includes a display system configured to display three-dimensional content to a user. The display device is configured to discover, via a network interface, one or more compute nodes operable to facilitate rendering the three-dimensional content and receive information identifying abilities of the one or more compute nodes to facilitate the rendering. Based on the received information, the display device evaluates a set of tasks to identify one or more of the tasks to offload to the one or more compute nodes for facilitating the rendering and distributes, via the network interface, the identified one or more tasks to the one or more compute nodes for processing by the one or more compute nodes.

    Abstract: An electronic device: obtains pass-through image data characterizing a field of view captured by an image sensor; determines whether a recognized subject in the pass-through image data satisfies a confidence score threshold associated with a user-specific recommendation profile; generates one or more computer-generated reality (CGR) content items associated with the recognized subject in response to determining that the recognized subject in the pass-through image data satisfies the confidence score threshold; and composites the pass-through image data with the one or more CGR content items, where the one or more CGR content items are proximate to the recognized subject in the field of view.

    Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to identifying connection quality for locations within an environment. A first computing device may collect environment information pertaining to a layout of an environment in which the first computing device and a second computing device are located. The first computing device may be in wireless communication with the second computing device. The first computing device may determine, based on the environment information, a location within the environment to locate the first computing device to improve the wireless communication. The first computing device may provide an indication of the location to a user of the first computing device.

    Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide systems and methods for recording an extended reality experience in a way that allows the experience to be played back at a later time from a different viewpoint or perspective. This allows computer-generated content that was rendered for display to a user during the recording, to be re-rendered during playback at the correct time and location in the recording, but from a different perspective. In order to facilitate this type of viewer-centric playback, the recording includes a computer-generated content track that references resources for re-rendering the computer-generated content at each point in time in the recording.

    Abstract: Implementations of the subject technology provide determining an operating mode of an electronic device based at least in part on whether the electronic device is communicatively coupled to an associated base device. Based on the determined operating mode, the subject technology identifies a set of input modalities for initiating a recording of content within a field of view of the electronic device. The subject technology monitors sensor information generated by at least one sensor included in, or communicatively coupled to, the electronic device. Further, the subject technology initiates the recording of content within the field of view of the electronic device when the monitored sensor information indicates that at least one of the identified set of input modalities has been triggered.

    Abstract: In one implementation, a method of accessing shared data among processes is performed by a device including processor(s), non-transitory memory, and an image acquisition interface. The method includes obtaining image data acquired by the image acquisition interface. The method further includes determining pose data based at least in part on inertial measurement unit (IMU) information measured by the image acquisition interface. The method also includes determining a gaze estimation based at least in part on eye tracking information obtained through the image acquisition interface. Based at least in part on characteristics of processes, the method includes determining an arrangement for the image data, the pose data, and the gaze estimation. The method additionally includes determining an access schedule for the processes based at least in part on at least one of: the arrangement, the characteristics of the processes, and hardware timing parameters associated with the device.
