    Abstract: The present disclosure relates, in part, to spatially aware media that includes three-dimensional (3D) spatial information pertaining to a real-world space. The spatially aware media may map this 3D spatial information to media such as an image, for example, to provide 3D spatial context for the media. This may allow users to more flexibly and efficiently interact with virtual content in real-world spaces that are relevant to them. According to one embodiment, spatially aware media is augmented to provide an image of a real-world space overlaid with a render of a 3D model defined relative to the 3D spatial features of the real-world space. Before augmenting the spatially aware media, a recommended position for the 3D model relative to the 3D spatial features of the real-world space may be determined based on the 3D model and/or on the spatially aware media.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for the generation of augmented reality (AR) content that provides a shared AR experience involving multiple users. Shared AR experiences can improve the communication and collaboration between multiple simultaneous users. According to an embodiment, AR content is generated for a first user in a shared AR experience. The AR content includes at least one of a render of a model, a virtual representation of a second user in the shared AR experience, a virtual representation of a user interaction in the shared AR experience, and spatial audio content. Modifications to a shared AR experience are also provided. These modifications may be initiated based on instructions from one user and be reflected in the AR content generated for multiple users.

    Abstract: The consistent use of lighting in different instances of digital media may help ensure that objects are depicted in a similar manner in the digital media. However, in some cases, a three-dimensional (3D) model may depict an object under lighting conditions that differ from the lighting conditions depicted in other digital media. The present disclosure provides systems and methods for generating 3D models to include lighting that is consistent with the lighting used in other digital media. According to an embodiment, a lighting template is determined based on digital media depicting a first physical object. A modified 3D model of a second physical object is then generated based on the lighting template to light the second physical object according to the lighting template.

    Abstract: When a person visits a physical retail store, the merchant often does not have enough information about the person to make meaningful product recommendations. Also, a physical retail store typically has products physically distributed throughout the store. It may be desirable to have some sort of relationship between where the customer is and the location of the product being recommended. In some embodiments, when a person visits the store, a computer determines an identity of the person and generates a product recommendation based on user-specific information for that person. In some embodiments, generating the product recommendation includes detecting that a field of view of a camera of the device has changed, and in response determining a plurality of products within or proximate to a current field of view of the camera. At least one of the plurality of products is then identified as the recommended product.

    Abstract: Generating and storing digital media can be resource intensive processes. Some systems and methods disclosed herein relate to generating digital media using a pre-existing three-dimensional (3D) model of an object and feature points of the object. According to an embodiment, a method includes an e-commerce platform receiving a request for digital media depicting an object. In response to the request, the e-commerce platform may obtain a 3D model corresponding to the object and data pertaining to one or more feature points of the object. The one or more feature points may correspond to respective views of the 3D model. The e-commerce platform may then generate the digital media based on the 3D model and the one or more feature points, where the digital media could include renders of the 3D model depicting the one or more feature points.
