    Abstract: A method includes: triggering rendering of an augmented reality (AR) environment having a viewer configured for generating views of the AR environment; triggering rendering, in the AR environment, of an object with an outside surface visualized using a mesh having a direction oriented away from the object; performing a first determination that the viewer is inside the object as a result of relative movement between the viewer and the object; and in response to the first determination, increasing a transparency of the outside surface, reversing the direction of at least part of the mesh, and triggering rendering of an inside surface of the object using the part of the mesh having the reversed direction, wherein the inside surface is illuminated by light from outside the object due to the increased transparency.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for drawing attention to points of interest within inserted content are provided. For example, the inserted content may include augmented reality content that is inserted into a physical space or a representation of the physical space such as an image. An example system and method may include receiving an image and identifying content to display over the image. The system and method may also include identifying a location within the image to display the content and identifying a point of interest of the content. Additionally, the example system and method may also include triggering display of the content overlaid on the image by identifying a portion of the content based on the point of interest, rendering the portion of the content using first shading parameters; and rendering the content other than the portion using second shading parameters.

    Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus include computer programs encoded on a computer-readable storage medium, including a method for providing information. A request is received by a call routing server to establish a call between a client device and a remote telecommunications device. A given transmission criterion that triggered distribution of the particular digital component to the client device is determined by a call context server. A set of contextual information that is mapped to the given transmission criterion is identified, by the call context server, in a data store storing a mapping of transmission criteria to contextual information. The client device is connected, by the call routing server, to the remote telecommunications device using the phone number. The set of contextual information is transmitted to the remote telecommunications device or a computing device that is associated with the remote telecommunications device while the call is being connected or in progress.

    Abstract: Implementations described herein relate to an automated assistant that iteratively renders various GUI elements as a user iteratively provides a spoken utterance, or sequence of spoken utterances, corresponding to a request directed to the automated assistant. These various GUI elements can be dynamically adapted as the user iteratively provides the spoken utterance to assist the user with efficiently completing the request. In some implementations, a generic container graphical element associated with candidate intent(s) can be initially rendered at a display interface of a computing device and dynamically adapted with tailored container graphical elements as a particular intent is determined while the user iteratively provides the spoken utterance. In additional or alternative implementations, the tailored container graphical elements can include a current status of one or more settings associated with the computing device or additional computing device(s) such that the user can view the current status while completing the spoken utterance.

    Abstract: A method includes: receiving, in a first device, a relative description file for physical markers that are positioned at locations, the relative description file defining relative positions for each of the physical markers with regard to at least another one of the physical markers; initially localizing a position of the first device among the physical markers by visually capturing any first physical marker of the physical markers using an image sensor of the first device; and recognizing a second physical marker of the physical markers and a location of the second physical marker without a line of sight, the second physical marker recognized using the relative description file.

    Abstract: Systems and methods for inserting and transforming content are provided. For example, the inserted content may include augmented reality content that is inserted into a physical space or a representation of the physical space such as an image. An example system and method may include receiving an image and identifying a physical location associated with a display management entity within the image. The example system and method may also include retrieving content display parameters associated with the display management entity. Additionally, the example system and method may also include identifying content to display and displaying the content using the display parameters associated with the display management entity.
