Abstract: A mixed reality system that includes a device and a base station that communicate via a wireless connection The device may include sensors that collect information about the user's environment and about the user. The information collected by the sensors may be transmitted to the base station via the wireless connection. The base station renders frames or slices based at least in part on the sensor information received from the device, encodes the frames or slices, and transmits the compressed frames or slices to the device for decoding and display. The base station may provide more computing power than conventional stand-alone systems, and the wireless connection does not tether the device to the base station as in conventional tethered systems. The system may implement methods and apparatus to maintain a target frame rate through the wireless link and to minimize latency in frame rendering, transmittal, and display.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for measuring biometric data including respiration in head-mounted devices (HMDs). Accelerometers may be integrated into a HMD and used to collect motion data from a user's face. This motion data may be processed to generate estimates of the user's respiration rate and changes to the respiration rate. Thermal sensors may also be integrated into the HMD and used to collect thermal data from the surface of the user's face (or other regions of the user's head). This thermal data may also be processed to generate estimates of the user's respiration. The respiration rate and changes to respiration rate derived from signals from the sensors may be used to generate and present biometric data to the user.

Abstract: Fiducial patterns that include sub-patterns of dot-like markers are generated or applied on or in transparent glass or plastic material, for example an optical element such as a cover glass or lens attachment. A camera may capture multiple images through the glass or plastic element that include diffraction patterns caused by the fiducial patterns. The diffraction patterns from multiple images may be processed and analyzed to extract information including but not limited to centroids of the sub-patterns of the fiducial patterns. This information may, for example, be used to estimate location of the fiducial 10 patterns with respect to the camera, and thus to estimate pose of the glass or lens element with respect to the camera. Information such as serial numbers and prescriptions can also be encoded in the fiducial patterns and extracted from the respective diffraction patterns.
