According to one or more embodiments, a non-transitory computer readable medium storing a program which, when executed, causes a computer to perform processing comprising acquiring image data, applying style transfer to the image data a plurality of times based on one or more style images, and outputting data after the style transfer is applied.
Systems, methods, and graphical user interfaces for updating display of a device relative to a user's body
An electronic device, while the electronic device is worn over a predefined portion of the user's body, displays, via a display generation component arranged on the electronic device opposite the predefined portion of the user's body, a graphical representation of an exterior view of a body part that corresponds to the predefined portion of the user's body. The electronic device detects a change in position of the electronic device with respect to the predefined portion of the user's body. The electronic device, in response to detecting the change in the position of the electronic device with respect to the predefined portion of the user's body, modifies the graphical representation of the exterior view of the body part that corresponds to predefined portion of the user's body in accordance with the detected change in position of the electronic device with respect to the predefined portion of the user's body.
Communication with augmented reality virtual agents
A method implemented by a processor of a computing device, comprising: receiving an image from a camera; using a machine vision process to recognize the at least one real-world object in the image; displaying on a screen an augmented reality (AR) scene containing the at least one real-world object and a virtual agent; receiving user input; deriving a simplified user intent from the user input; and in response to the user input, animating the virtual agent within the AR scene, the animating being dependent on the simplified user intent. Deriving a simplified user intent from the user input may include converting the user input into a user phrase, determining at least one semantic element in the user phrase, and converting the at least one semantic element into the simplified user intent.
System and method to convert two-dimensional video into three-dimensional extended reality content
System and method are provided to detect objects in a scene frame of two-dimensional (2D) video using image processing and determine object image coordinates of the detected objects in the scene frame. The system and method deploy a virtual camera in a three-dimensional (3D) environment to create a virtual image frame in the environment and generate a floor in the environment in a plane below the virtual camera. The system and method adjust the virtual camera to change a height and angle relative to the virtual image frame. The system and method generate at an extended reality (XR) coordinate location relative to the floor for placing the detected object in the environment. The XR coordinate location is a point of intersection of a ray cast of the virtual camera through the virtual frame on the floor that translates to the image coordinate in the virtual image frame.
Using HMD Camera Touch Button to Render Images of a User Captured During Game Play
Methods and systems for presenting an image of a user interacting with a video game includes providing images of a virtual reality (VR) scene of the video game for rendering on a display screen of a head mounted display (HMD). The images of the VR scene are generated as part of game play of the video game. An input provided at a user interface on the HMD received during game play is used to initiate a signal to pause the video game and to generate an activation signal to activate an image capturing device. The activation signal causes the image capturing device to capture an image of the user interacting in a physical space. The image of the user captured by the image capturing device during game play is associated with a portion of the video game that corresponds with a time when the image of the user was captured. The association causes the image of the user to be transmitted to the HMD for rendering on the display screen of the HMD.
OBJECT MODELING AND REPLACEMENT IN A VIDEO STREAM
Systems, devices, and methods are presented for segmenting an image of a video stream with a client device by receiving one or more images depicting an object of interest and determining pixels within the one or more images corresponding to the object of interest. The systems, devices, and methods identify a position of a portion of the object of interest and determine a direction for the portion of the object of interest. Based on the direction of the portion of the object of interest, a histogram threshold is dynamically modified for identifying pixels as corresponding to the portion of the object of interest. The portion of the object of interest is replaced with a graphical interface element aligned with the direction of the portion of the object of interest.
Systems and methods for guiding actors using a motion capture reference system
The specification discloses methods and systems for enabling users to configure one or more actuators in data communication with a user's computing device and positioned on a prop to generate and deliver feedback to a motion capture actor engaged with the prop. At least one graphical interface in the computing device is configured to enable the user to configure occurrence of at least one event during a scene, associate a time and duration of occurrence to the at least one event within an overall duration of the scene, select the prop, assign the at least one event and the associated time and duration of occurrence to at least one actuator on the prop, configure at least one parameter for the feedback, and activate the at least one actuator to generate and deliver the feedback to the actor in response to an occurrence of the at least one event.
SYSTEM FOR PRIZING REMOTE USERS USING REAL LIFE SPORTS PERSONALITIES
Systems, methods and apparatus for game play using virtual players, sometimes referred to herein as vBots, where they may have images including those of real world personalities, such as sports personalities, is disclosed. In one aspect, a system for electronic game play involves the use of the system wherein one or more virtual players are displayed to the player of the game, preferably, the virtual players have differing play characteristics, receiving from the user association with a selection of a virtual player, displaying a simulated game using the virtual players, identifying a subset of the virtual players as being winners of the simulated game, and awarding a win to the lottery user if the selected virtual player is in the subset of virtual players. In one aspect, a team may be formed in which real life sports personalities images are utilized.

METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR PROCESSING TEXTUAL DEPICTIONS IN A COMPUTER GAME SCREENSHOT
Methods, systems, and techniques for processing textual depictions in a computer game screenshot. At least one processor is used to obtain a screenshot of a computer-implemented game, wherein the screenshot includes a game data region. The game data region includes a textual depiction indicative of how a user performed in the game. The at least one processor segments the textual depiction from the screenshot by performing image segmentation on the screenshot and determines alphanumeric characters corresponding to the textual depiction. After determining the alphanumeric characters, the at least one processor outputs the characters to, for example, storage or a display. Image processing in the form of any one or more of aspect ratio transformation, cropping, scaling, binarizing, and blurring may be done prior to segmentation.
