Abstract: A method is provided, including the following operations: analyzing gameplay data and spectator data from previous sessions of a video game, wherein the analyzing is configured to correlate a spectator preference to a gameplay condition of the video game; using the correlated spectator preference to generate an in-game recommendation for the gameplay condition; identifying the gameplay condition occurring in a current session of the video game; responsive to identifying the gameplay condition occurring in the current session, then presenting the in-game recommendations to a player of the current session of the video game.

Abstract: Techniques are described for varying brightness and/or contrast in multiple displays of a box-shaped flat panel display assembly according to the viewing angle of the user. Also, techniques are described for providing, on the displays, images of real world background surrounding the display, the better to mimic a transparent tank, resembling a fish tank.

Abstract: Techniques for optimizing which LEDs in a HMD to use, the brightness of those LEDs, and camera exposure are divulged based on the particular function to be performed. For instance, one set of optimization parameters may be implemented for eye tracking purposes while a different set of optimization parameters may be implemented for eye-based authentication purposes.

Abstract: A tracking system uses a dynamic vision sensor (DVS) operably coupled to the processor. The DVS has an array of light-sensitive elements in a known configuration. The DVS outputs signals corresponding to two or more events at two or more corresponding light-sensitive elements in the array in response to changes in light output from two or more light sources mounted in a known configuration with respect to each other and with respect to a controller. The output signals indicate times of the events and locations of the corresponding light-sensitive elements. The processor determines an association between each event and two or more corresponding light sources and fits a position and orientation of the controller using the determined association, the known configuration of the light sources and the locations of the corresponding light-sensitive elements in the array.

Abstract: A tracking system includes a processor, a controller, two or more light sources and a dynamic vision sensor (DVS). The light sources are of known configuration with respect to each other the controller and turn on and off in a predetermined sequence. The DVS includes an array of light-sensitive elements of known configuration. The DVS outputs signals corresponding to events at corresponding light-sensitive elements in the array in response to changes in light from the light sources. The signals indicate times of the events and locations of the corresponding light-sensitive elements. The processor determines an association between each event and one or more of the light sources and, from that association, determines an occlusion of one or more of the light sources. The processor estimates a location of an object using the determined occlusion, the known light source configuration, and the locations of the corresponding light-sensitive elements in the array.

Abstract: To track certain difficult facial features during speech such as the corners of the mouth and the teeth, a camera sensor system generates RGB/IR images and the system also uses light intensity change signals from an event driven sensor (EDS), as well as voice analysis. In this way, the camera sensor system enables improved performance tracking (equivalent to using very high-speed camera) at lower bandwidth and power consumption.

Abstract: Methods and systems for improving engagement metrics of a spectator include identifying a group of spectators watching game play of a video game and generating an aggregate group profile for the group. Engagement metrics for the group are analyzed to identify engagement level of the group toward the game play of the player. One or more suggestions are provided to adjust game play of the video game so as to improve engagement level of the group toward the game play of the video game.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is an image processing apparatus including: a captured image acquisition unit configured to acquire data of a captured image; a correction unit configured to refer to a displacement vector map, which is stored in a storage unit and represents, on an image plane, displacement vectors each representative of a displacement amount and a displacement direction of a pixel used when the captured image is to be corrected to a display image or calculate the displacement vectors to correct the captured image; and an image display controlling unit configured to cause the corrected image to be displayed on a display panel.
