Abstract: A user input device includes an optical window facing onto a region of skin of the user when the user input device is in normal use, a monochromatic light source arranged to emit light through the optical window, a spectral dispersal unit adapted to disperse the spectrum of light reflected back from the region of skin of the user, the reflected light no longer being wholly monochromatic due to Raman scattering, and a light sensor operable to detect at least some of the dispersed spectrum of light and output corresponding light data.

Abstract: A content generation system, the system comprising an input obtaining unit operable to obtain one or more samples of input text and/or audio relating to a first content, an input analysis unit operable to generate n-grams representing one or more elements of the obtained inputs, a representation generating unit operable to generate a visual representation of one or more of the generated n-grams, and a display generation unit operable to generate second content comprising one or more elements of the visual representation in association with the first content.

Abstract: A data processing apparatus includes input circuitry to receive viewpoint data indicative of respective viewpoints for a plurality of spectators of a virtual environment, detection circuitry to detect a portion of the virtual environment viewed by each of the respective viewpoints in dependence upon the viewpoint data, selection circuitry to select one or more regions of the virtual environment in dependence upon at least some of the detected portions, and output circuitry to output data indicative of one or more of the selected regions.

Abstract: An image rendering method includes: selecting at least a first trained machine learning model from among a plurality of machine learning models, the machine learning model having been trained to generate data contributing to a render of at least a part of an image, where the at least first trained machine learning model has an architecture based learning capability that is responsive to at least a first aspect of a virtual environment for which it is trained to generate the data, and using the at least first trained machine learning model to generate data contributing to a render of at least a part of an image.
