SYSTEM, METHOD, AND HEAD MOUNTED DISPLAY FOR CONSUSSION ASSESSMENT
A system for concussion assessment, comprises a head mounted display and a remote AI host. The head mounted display is disposed for displaying at least one test image to a user and obtain a plurality of physiological data from the user. The remote AI host communicates with the head mounted display through a first network connection, so as to obtain a concussion assessment result according to the plurality of physiological data.
ENHANCING GAMING CONTENT FOR PREVIOUSLY DEVELOPED GAMING APPLICATIONS
The present disclosure relates to systems, methods, and computer-readable media for identifying a variety of events that occur within a gaming session and implementing one or more in-game enhancements based on the identified events. For example, a gaming service (e.g., a cloud gaming server) can leverage content analysis and event recognition services on a cloud computing system to detect one or more in-game events based on gaming content (e.g., video content, audio content, controller inputs) that is delivered to a client system. Systems described herein can cause in-game enhancements to be implemented on a client system in response to detected events. Detection of events and implementation of the various enhancements may be performed without significant redevelopment of gaming applications, even where a gaming application has been previously shipped.
Methods, systems, and media for enhancing multiplayer game sessions with asymmetric information
Mechanisms for enhancing multiplayer games are provided. In some implementations, the method comprises: detecting presence of a display device on a communications network; causing joining instructions to connect to a multiplayer game session to be displayed on the display device, wherein the joining instructions include server information for handling communications relating to the multiplayer game session over the communications network; receiving, from user devices over other communications networks, a request to join the multiplayer game session in response to displaying the joining instructions on the display device, wherein each of the user devices has a user display device; connecting each of the user devices over one of the other communications network to the display device presenting the multiplayer game session; initiating the multiplayer game session; determining, for the multiplayer game session, a first portion of game information to be presented on the display device and a second portion of game information to be presented on the user display device; and causing the first portion of game information to be displayed on the display device and the second portion of game information to be displayed on the user displayed device based on the determination.

Dynamic Mixed Reality Content in Virtual Reality
In one embodiment, a method includes using one or more cameras of a mobile computing device to capture one or more images of a first user wearing a VR display device in a real-world environment. The mobile computing device transmits a pose of the mobile computing device with respect to the VR display device to a VR system. The mobile computing device receives from the VR system a VR rendering of a VR environment. The VR rendering is from the perspective of the mobile computing device with respect to the VR display device. The method includes segmenting the first user from the one or more images and generating, in real-time responsive to capturing the one or more images, a MR rendering of the first user in the VR environment. The MR rendering of the first user is based on a compositing of the segmented one or more images of the first user and the VR rendering.
Interactive augmented reality experiences using positional tracking
Interactive augmented reality experiences with an eyewear device including a position detection system and a display system. The eyewear device registers a first marker position for a user-controlled virtual game piece and a second marker for an interaction virtual game piece. The eyewear device monitors its position (e.g., location and orientation) and updates the position of the user-controlled virtual game piece accordingly. The eyewear device additionally monitors the position of the user-controlled virtual game piece with respect to the interaction virtual game piece for use in generating a score. Augmented reality examples include a “spheroidal balancing” augmented reality experience and a “spheroidal balancing” augmented reality experience.
Four-sided projection for augmented reality
A computer simulation may include a tabletop game in which multiple players each wearing a head-mounted display (HMD) view a tabletop projector housing with a different aspect of the game for each side of the housing. A projector assembly may be inside the housing. The housing may be a screen that unfolds into cube, and the projector projects light in all four screens so that everyone gets different perspective. A player may be enabled to switch between perspectives for different player's angles.
COMPANION DEVICE AIDED GAME CONTROLLER PAIRING
A game controller is configured to selectively pair with a companion device using a first communication protocol and one or more gaming systems using a second communication protocol. The game controller is configured to send a pairing request to the companion device using the first communication protocol based on companion-device pairing data stored in a storage subsystem of the game controller. The game controller is configured to send a pairing request to a last-paired gaming system with which the game controller last paired using the second communication protocol based on gaming-system pairing data stored in the storage subsystem. Responsive to the game controller being unable to pair with the last-paired gaming system and while the game controller is paired with the companion device, the game controller is configured to send an error notification to the companion device using the first communication protocol.

APPLYING AUGMENTED REALITY-BASED GAMIFICATION TO HAZARD AVOIDANCE
A computer-implemented method for utilizing augmented reality (AR) and gamification to help a user traverse an area that includes hazards. The method includes one or more computer processors receiving at an AR device utilized by a user, visual information corresponding to an area. The method further includes identifying one or more hazards within the area. The method further includes determining a path through the area that the user may traverse to avoid the one or more identified hazards. The method further includes generating a plurality of elements of AR content, where at least a first element of AR content indicates the path for the user to traverse. The method further includes displaying, via the AR device, the received visual information corresponding to the area to include the plurality of elements of AR content.
