Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media including instructions for performing duty cycle control operations for a wearable extended reality appliance are disclosed. Performing the duty cycle control operations includes receiving data representing virtual content in an extended reality environment associated with a wearable extended reality appliance; identifying in the extended reality environment a first display region and a second display region separated from the first display region; determining a first duty cycle configuration for the first display region; determining a second duty cycle configuration for the second display region, wherein the second duty cycle configuration differs from the first duty cycle configuration; and causing the wearable extended reality appliance to display the virtual content in accordance with the determined first duty cycle configuration for the first display region and the determined second duty cycle configuration for the second display region.

Interpreting commands in extended reality environments based on distances from physical input devices

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media including instructions for selectively operating a wearable extended reality appliance are disclosed. Selectively operating the wearable extended reality appliance includes establishing a link between a wearable extended reality appliance and a keyboard device; receiving sensor data from at least one sensor associated with the wearable extended reality appliance, the sensor data being reflective of a relative orientation of the wearable extended reality appliance with respect to the keyboard device; based on the relative orientation, selecting from a plurality of operation modes a specific operation mode for the wearable extended reality appliance; identifying a user command based on at least one signal detected by the wearable extended reality appliance; and executing an action responding to the identified user command in a manner consistent with the selected operation mode.

MOBILE SENSOR-BASED RAILWAY CROSSING SAFETY DEVICE
20230347952 · 2023-11-02 ·

A device for detecting an approaching train at a roadway railway crossing and providing an intervention for avoiding a collision that avoids the need for crossing site approval, installations, etc. and associated hardware and installation costs. The device may be configured as a stand-alone device, as an accessory matable to a motor vehicle (e.g., via an OBD II port), or may be fully integrated into the motor vehicle. The device includes a microphone for receiving an ambient audio signal, and processes the audio signal to determine whether a train is present. If so, the device may provide an audible and/or visual warning signal to a vehicle driver, via the device itself or via components of the motor vehicle. In certain other embodiments, the device is configured to provide a control signal causing operation of braking, engine, steering or other vehicle systems to avoid a collision.

Systems, methods, and non-transitory computer readable media including instructions for selectively controlling display of digital objects are disclosed. Selectively controlling display of digital objects includes generating a plurality of digital objects for display in connection with use of a computing device operable in a first display mode wherein the plurality of digital objects are displayed via a physical display and in a second display mode wherein some of the plurality of digital objects are displayed via the physical display, and at least one other of the plurality of digital objects is displayed via a wearable extended reality appliance; determining a usage status of the wearable extended reality appliance; selecting a display mode based on the usage status of the wearable extended reality appliance; and in response to the display mode selection, outputting for presentation the plurality of digital objects in a manner consistent with the selected display mode.

VIRTUAL SHARING OF PHYSICAL NOTEBOOK
20230145049 · 2023-05-11 · ·

Methods, systems, apparatuses, and computer-readable media are provided for enabling collaboration between physical writers and virtual writers. In one implementation, the computer-readable medium includes instructions to cause a processor to receive, from an image sensor, image data representing a hand of a first physical writer holding a physical marking implement and engaging with a physical surface to create tangible markings. Information based on the image data is transmitted to a computing device associated with a second virtual writer, to thereby enable the second virtual writer to view the tangible markings created by the first physical writer. Annotation data are received from the computing device, and represent additional markings in relative locations with respect to the tangible markings created by the first physical writer. In response to receiving the annotation data, a wearable extended reality appliance overlays the physical surface with virtual markings in the relative locations.
