Abstract: Augmented reality systems provide graphics over views from a mobile device for both in-venue and remote viewing of a sporting or other event. A server system can provide a transformation between the coordinate system of a mobile device (smart phone, tablet computer, head mounted display) and a real world coordinate system. Requested graphics for the event are displayed over a view of an event.

Abstract: In various examples, past location information corresponding to actors in an environment and map information may be applied to a deep neural network (DNN)—such as a recurrent neural network (RNN)—trained to compute information corresponding to future trajectories of the actors. The output of the DNN may include, for each future time slice the DNN is trained to predict, a confidence map representing a confidence for each pixel that an actor is present and a vector field representing locations of actors in confidence maps for prior time slices. The vector fields may thus be used to track an object through confidence maps for each future time slice to generate a predicted future trajectory for each actor. The predicted future trajectories, in addition to tracked past trajectories, may be used to generate full trajectories for the actors that may aid an ego-vehicle in navigating the environment.

Abstract: Improvements to graphics processing pipelines are disclosed. More specifically, the vertex shader stage, which performs vertex transformations, and the hull or geometry shader stages, are combined. If tessellation is disabled and geometry shading is enabled, then the graphics processing pipeline includes a combined vertex and graphics shader stage. If tessellation is enabled, then the graphics processing pipeline includes a combined vertex and hull shader stage. If tessellation and geometry shading are both disabled, then the graphics processing pipeline does not use a combined shader stage. The combined shader stages improve efficiency by reducing the number of executing instances of shader programs and associated resources reserved.

Abstract: System and methods are provided for augmented reality displays for medical and physiological monitoring. Augmented reality user interfaces are virtually pinned to a physical device, a location, or to a patient. An augmented reality position determination process determines the presentation of user interfaces relative to reference positions and reference objects. Detection of gestures causes the augmented reality users interfaces to be updated, such as pinning a user interface to a device, location, or patient. Looking away from an augmented reality user interface causes the user interface to minimize or disappear in an augmented reality display. An augmented reality gesture detection process determines gestures based on captured image data and computer vision techniques performed on the image data.
