    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for dynamically adjusting a personal boundary of an avatar in an XR environment. The system identifies a first avatar in an extended reality (XR) environment based on rule data stored in a storage. In response to the system detecting that the first avatar has entered a portion of the XR environment at a communicable distance from a second avatar, the system does the following steps. The system determines an offensiveness rating of the first avatar. The system retrieves, from the storage, an offensiveness tolerance of the second avatar. The system compares the offensiveness rating of the first avatar and offensiveness tolerance of the second avatar. In response to determining, based on the comparing, that the offensiveness rating of the first avatar exceeds the offensiveness tolerance of the second avatar, the system automatically censors one or more messages from the first avatar to the second avatar.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are described for enabling delivery of an order to a customer's vehicle travelling along a first navigational route. The customer inputs an order, and a plurality of candidate vendors and candidate delivery locations are determined. A target delivery location and target vendor are selected from among the plurality of candidate delivery locations and candidate vendors based on optimizing one or more predetermined criteria. The order is transmitted to the target vendor, and a confirmation is received. The target delivery location is then transmitted to the customer. The customer travels to the target delivery location to pick up the order.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for obtaining metrics relating to an extended reality experience and using the obtained metrics to perform remedial actions, such as managing user motion sickness, determining user performance relating to a designed game difficulty, and performing home automation are disclosed. The methods include determining a starting and ending checkpoint in an extended reality experience. Data from a plurality of users as they navigate between the determined checkpoints is obtained and used to determine a metric, such as a median, average, or other representative data. The current user's navigation through the same checkpoints is monitored and compared with the metric. The results from the comparison are used to enhance extended reality experience, which includes customizing the experience for motion sickness, game difficulty level, and home automation.

    Abstract: Embodiments herein provide control of an AR media asset generated on a display of an AR device. The AR media asset is displayed as part of a 3D environment and at a first depth in the 3D environment. A gaze of a user of the AR device is determined to be focused at a second depth in the 3D environment. The second depth is deeper than the first depth. In response to determining the gaze of the user is focused at the second depth, the AR media asset is repositioned to a third depth in the 3D environment. The third depth is deeper than the second depth. The AR media asset is automatically moved to allow the user to focus at the second depth, which allows the user to pay attention to the physical surroundings and consume the AR media asset while on-the-go.

    Abstract: Sensors disposed on a steering wheel sense contact of a user's hands with the steering wheel. The sensors are arranged into several zones that wrap around the steering wheel. Each zone is adjacent to at least two other zones. Data from the sensors is continuously received by input/output circuitry. Control circuitry determines a time series of pressures for each zone based on the data from the sensors. The time series of pressures for the zones are stored in a data structure that is looped. The time series of pressures of the data structure is compared to a time series of pressures of a reference data structure. An action to control at least one element of the vehicle is performed based on the comparison. In some embodiments, the steering wheel includes handlebars and the sensors are disposed in handlebar grips.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for extending the span of content displayed in a first view frustum by virtually overlaying a virtual portion of the content on a display of an XR device are described. A composite image, which includes a primary image portion, and an enhanced image portion are requested. The primary image portion is to be displayed on a physical display having a first view frustum. Characteristics of the enhanced image portion are determined based on factors such as the user comfort, field of view from the XR device, and system rendering and encoding capabilities. The primary image portion is displayed in a first view frustum simultaneously and synchronized with the enhanced image portion in a second view frustum. The enhanced image portion is anchored, and color matched with the primary image portion to provide the appearance of one single composite display that has image and color continuity.

    Abstract: A first virtual display zone may be set as anchored in a first physical space. The zone may include one or more virtual displays rendered by extended reality (XR) equipment, such as a head mounted display (HMD). A first zone policy may be set for the first virtual display zone, defining what applications will have outputs rendered in the first virtual zone. A zone policy may specify that the output of applications that provide live communication will be generated for display in the first virtual display, or may specify which other XR devices, in the first physical space or remote, may access the virtual displays of the first. Location and policies for a second virtual display zone may be similarly set. Also, virtual displays anchored in the physical space may be de-anchored and re-anchored to the XR equipment if the XR equipment exits the first physical space.
