For example, through a graphical user interface, voice controls, and/or gestures, the user may input to the mobile computing system that he will have a typical workday, usual route there, stopping at the park for a brief walk on the way home. The mobile computing system has“artificial intelligence” aspects so that it uses integration with an electronic calendar of the user to provisionally understand his schedule, subject to quick confirmations. For example, as he is departing for work, the system may be configured to say or show: “headed to work, usual route and usual computing configuration”, and this usual route may be garnered from previous GPS and/or mobile triangulation data through his mobile computing system. The“usual computing configuration” may be customized by the user and subject to regulations, for example, the system may be configured to only present certain non-occlusive visuals, no advertisements, and no shopping or other information not pertinent to driving while the user is driving, and to provide an audio version of a news program or current favorite audiobook while the user is driving on his way to work. As the user navigates the drive on the way to work, he may leave connectivity with his home wireless device (40) and enter or maintain connectivity with other wireless devices (42, 44, 46, 48). Each of these wireless devices may be configured to provide the user’s mobile computing system with information pertinent to the user’s experience at relatively low latency (i.e., by storing locally certain information which may be pertinent to the user at that location). Figures 6 and 7 illustrate certain aspects of wireless devices which may be utilized as described herein, the embodiments of Figures 8 and 9 feature non-storage beacon and/or marker configurations which also may be utilized to connect directly to locally-pertinent cloud-based information without the benefit of local storage.

[00130] For example, as the user travels from point A (80) to point B (82) to point C (84), a local wireless device (44) around point C (84) may be configured to pass to the user’s mobile system geometric information which may be utilized on the user’s mobile computing system for highlighting where a trench is being created at such location, so that the user clearly visualizes and/or understands the hazard while driving past, and this geometric information (which may feature a highlighted outline of the trench, for example, may also feature one or more photos or other non-geometric information) may be locally stored on the local wireless device (44) so that it does not need to be pulled from more remote resources which may involve greater latency in getting the information to the driver. In addition to lowering latency, local storage may also function to decrease the overall compute load on the user’s mobile computing system, because the mobile system may receive information that it otherwise would have had to generate or build itself based upon sensors, for example, which may comprise part of the locally mobile hardware.

[00131] Once the user arrives at the parking lot of his work (24), the system may, for example, be configured to detect walking velocity and be configured by the user to review with the user his schedule for the day, via an integration with his computerized calendaring system, as he is walking up to the office. Certain additional information not resident on his locally mobile computing system may be pulled from local sources (48, 50, for example) which may feature certain storage capacity, to again facilitate smaller mobile overhead and lower latency versus direct cloud connectivity.

[00132] Referring to Figure 4, once in the office (24), the user may connect with a variety of wireless devices (50, 60, 62, 64, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74), each of which may be configured to be able to provide location-based information. For example, when at point F (90), the user’s mobile computing system may be configured to detect the location (such as by GPS, computer vision, marker or beacon identification, and/or wireless device (60, 62, 64) triangulation) and then quickly upload from local storage (i.e., from a wireless device 60, 62, 64) to his mobile computing system information pertinent to that location, such as a dense triangular mesh of the geometry of the room, or certain information pertaining to whose office that room is, information about that person, or other information that may be deemed relevant, such as by an artificial intelligence agent working automatically on the user’s mobile computing system. Various other wireless devices (50, 66, 68, 70, 72, 74) may be positioned in other locations of the office and be configured to feature other location-based information, again to provide local users with low-latency and robust mobile computing functionality without everything, such as a determination of the room geometry, being done de novo by the sensor facilities local to the mobile computing system in real time.

[00133] Referring to Figure 3, similar wireless device resources (40, 56, 58) may be utilized in the home (22) to assist with location-based information as the user navigates (P - 110, Q - 112, R - 114, S - 116, T - 118, U - 120) the home with his mobile computing system. In the office (24) or home (22) environments, the mobile computing system may be configured to utilize external resources quite differently from driving. For example, the artificial intelligence component of the user’s mobile computing system may be aware that the user likes to watch nightly news highlights from the previous week (perhaps in a display manner that would ordinarily not be acceptable when driving, but is acceptable when walking, or perhaps automatically expanding when the user stops walking around and is seated or standing still) as he is walking around on Saturday mornings between 7 and 8am, and so when walking velocity is detected, the system may be configured to deliver such highlights from local storage between those hours, while also gathering other location-based information such as the position of various objects or structures within the house (i.e., to decrease computer vision processing load) in the pertinent location.

[00134] Similarly, as the user navigates a walk (28) through the park (26), shown in magnified view in Figure 5, local wireless device resources (54) may be utilized to provide location-based information, such as background information related to a sculpture garden that the user may be observing as he walks along, such information may be displayed or reproduced as audio as the user is walking around in a manner that is tailored and/or customizable to his walking-in-a-park scenario (i.e., as opposed to driving, or walking around in the home or work).

[00135] Referring to Figure 6, one of more of the aforementioned wireless devices (40, 42, 44, 46, 48, 50, 52, 54, and others as shown in magnified views of Figure 3 and Figure 4) may comprise a system as shown in Figure 6, wherein a local controller (134), such as a processor, is connected (138) to a power supply (132), such as a battery, a transceiver (130), such as a transmitting and receiving antenna configured to communicate wirelessly with mobile computing systems and other computing systems and resources, such as by using mobile telecom (i.e., GSM, EDGE, HSPA/+, 3G, 4G, 5G), Wi-Fi (i.e., IEEE 802.11 standards such as 802.11a, 802.11b, 802. l lg, 802.11h, Wi-Fi 6 - also known as IEEE 802.11 AX, IEEE 802.11 AY, IEEE 802.11 AX-Halo, which is a relatively low power variation which may be most useful for devices relatively close in proximity to the user), WiMax, and/or Bluetooth (RTM, i.e., 1.x, 2.x, 3.x, 4.x) configurations, and a local storage device (136), such as a mass storage or memory device. The storage device (136) may be connected (140) to external storage resources (146), such as cloud storage resources, the local power supply (132) may be connected (142) to external power resources (148), such as for long term charging or replenishment, the transceiver (130) may be connected (144) to external connectivity resources (150) to provide access, for example, to the internet backbone. All of these local and connected resources may be configured based upon the location of such device, to provide local users with information tailored to the local scenario, whether such information is pertinent to traffic, shopping, weather, structures, culture, etc. Figure 7 illustrates an embodiment similar to that of Figure 6, but without local storage facility - the components thereof are connected (141) to remote storage resources (146), such as cloud resources, such an embodiment as in Figure 7 may be utilized in various configurations in place of embodiments such as those in Figure 6, without the benefit of directly local storage (as described above, such local storage may be beneficial in reducing latency in terms of providing information to a mobile system in the area). Referring to Figure 8, in further scenarios without local storage capability, a transmitter beacon (41) type of device, for example featuring only a transmitter (131, not a two-way transceiver, such as a transmitting antenna configured to communicate wirelessly with mobile computing systems and other computing systems and resources, such as by using mobile telecom (i.e., GSM, EDGE, HSPA/+, 3G, 4G, 5G), Wi-Fi (i.e., 802.11 standards such as 802.11a,

802.11b, 802. l lg, 802.11h), WiMax, and/or Bluetooth (RTM, i.e., 1.x, 2.x, 3.x, 4.x) configurations) and a relatively long-term battery (132), may be utilized to connect to a locally positioned mobile computing device to share location or beacon identification information the functions as a pointer to connect mobile computing system with pertinent cloud resources (i.e., bypassing local storage, but providing information akin to: you are here + pointers to cloud resources that are pertinent). Referring to Figure 9, in a very basic scenario, a non-electronic marker (43), such as an ArUco marker, may be utilized to also function as a pointer to connect mobile computing system with pertinent cloud resources (i.e., bypassing local storage, but providing information akin to: you are here + pointers to cloud resources that are pertinent).

[00136] As described above, to decrease latency and generally increase useful access to pertinent location-based information, wireless devices with localized storage resources, such as those depicted in Figure 6, may be located throughout the interiors of structures such as homes, enterprises, etc. - and also exteriors, such as urban downtown areas, outsides of stores or shops, etc. Similarly, wireless devices without localized storage capacity - but connected to, or pointed to, remote storage resources, also may be located throughout the interiors of structures such as homes, enterprises, etc. - and also exteriors, such as urban downtown areas, outsides of stores or shops, etc.

[00137] The mobile computing system may be customizable by the user to present information filtered on a time-domain basis, such as by how old or“stale” such information is. For example, the user may be able to configure the system to only provide traffic information while he is driving that is 10 minutes old or newer, etc. (i.e., the time domain aspect may be customized/configurable). Alternatively, the user may be able to configure the system to only present architectural (i.e., position of walls within a building) that is 1 year old or newer etc. (i.e., the time domain aspect may be customized/configurable).

[00138] Referring to Figures 10-13, in it is often desirable to have a system configured such that position and/or orientation of the user (i.e., via determination of position and/or orientation of a coupled component, such as a head-worn viewing component 2 which is couplable to the head of the user) may be utilized to provide the user with additional and/or enhanced content and/or information that pertains to the user’s particular view of the world as he or she navigates the world.

[00139] For example, as shown in the example of Figure 10, a user may be navigating the world wearing an augmented reality system (200) such as that depicted in Figure 1. The user may enter a zone (such as a walkable area, or functional volume within or outside of a building) wherein specific features, such as intentionally visually-detectable features, and wireless connectivity -related features, have been pre-configured to be located and interpreted by the user’s augmented reality system, such that the system is configured to determine the user’s position and/or orientation relative to the world immediately around the user. Such a relatively information-rich zone may be termed a“localization island.” For example, certain connected resources (8) may comprise wireless connectivity devices, such as 802.11 devices, which may broadcast information such as SSID and/or IP address, and for which relative signal strength may be determined and may be related to proximity. Further detectable features may for example include Bluetooth, audio, and/or infrared beacons with known locations, and/or posters or other visual features with known locations. The combined detection and analysis of these inputs, such as by the plurality of sensors connected to the head-wearable component (2) of the subject system (which may include components such as monochrome cameras, color cameras, Bluetooth detectors,

microphones, depth cameras, stereo-cameras, and the like), may be utilized to determine the position and/or orientation of the user (202) based upon analysis of information pertaining to predetermined or known locations of such items, which may, for example, be contained upon connected resources (8), such as cloud storage systems like those described, for example, in reference to Figure 6.

[00140] Referring again to Figure 10, once the user’s initial position and/or orientation have been determined, sensors of the user’s augmented reality system, along with the specific features of the localization island, may be utilized to maintain an updated determination of the user’s position and/or orientation in the area or volume (204). Given an updated determination of the user’s position and/or orientation relative to a coordinate system of the locale as the user views and/or navigates around the locale, certain specialized content and information may be presented to the user through the user’s augmented reality system, including but not limited to content and information pertaining to other remote locales via“passable world” configurations (such as those described, for example, in U.S. Patent Application Serial Number 13/663,466, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety), which may be configured, for example, to allow other users and objects to virtually“teleport” to different locations to see imagery pertaining to the locale, and/or communicate with others who are there either in reality or virtually (206). A user interface of the user’s augmented reality system may be configured to allow the user to intake, utilize, view, and/or bypass certain information presented through the user’s augmented reality system. For example, if a user is walking through a particularly identifiable feature rich (i.e., such as a“localization island”) and content rich shopping area but does not want to see any virtual presentation of information pertaining to shopping at the time, the user may configure his or her system to not display such information, and to rather display only information that has been selected for display, such as urgent personal messaging information.

[00141] According to additional detail described with reference to Figure 10, the first resource device is at first location, wherein the mobile device communication interface creates a first connection with the first resource device, and wherein the content is first content specific to a first geographic parameter of the first connection. The content provisioning system further includes a second resource device having a second resource device processor, a second resource device storage medium, a second resource device data set including second content on the second resource device storage medium, and a second resource device communication interface forming part of the second resource device and connected to the second resource device processor and being under the control of the second resource device processor, wherein the second resource device is at second location, wherein the mobile device communication interface creates a second connection with the second resource device, and wherein the content is second content specific to a second geographic parameter of the second connection.

[00142] Referring to Figure 11, a system similar to that of Figure 1 is illustrated, but also is shown highlighting several wirelessly connected resources which may be utilized to assist in the localization of the user (i.e., in the determination of position and/or orientation of components such as a head-coupleable component 2 which may be coupled to a user’s head in operation). For example, referring to Figure 11, in addition to the main system

components (2, 4, 6) being connected to each other and to connected resources (8) such as cloud storage or cloud computing resources, these system components may be coupleable wirelessly to devices which may assist in the localization of the user, for example Bluetooth devices (222) such as transmitter beacons with known identifications and/or locations,

802.11 devices (218) such as Wi-Fi routers with specific SSID, IP address identifiers, and/or signal strength or proximity sensing and/or transmitting capabilities, vehicles or components thereof (220) which may be configured to transmit information pertaining to velocity, position, and/or orientation (for example, certain speedometer systems within certain motor vehicles may be configured to transmit instantaneous velocity and approximate GPS position through intercoupling with a GPS tracking capable component, such as a vehicle- mounted GPS tracking device, such velocity, position, and/or orientation information pertaining to a vehicle in which a user is located may be utilized, for example, to reduce display“jitter”, and also to assist in presenting displayed imagery to users that pertains to real world features that may be seen through vehicle windows, such as labels for summits of mountains being passed by, or other features outside of the vehicle, in certain embodiments involving vehicles or other structures with viewing portals outside of such vehicles or structures, information pertaining to geometry of such vehicles, structures, and/or portals may be utilized, such as from a connected resource 8 cloud repository, to place virtual content appropriately for each user relative to the vehicle or structure), mobile connectivity network transceivers (210), such as those configured for LTE connectivity, which may not only connect a user’s system, but also provide for triangulation location and/or orientation integration and also integrated GPS information, GPS transmitters and/or transceivers configured to provide location information to connected devices (212), audio transmitter or transceiver beacons (214, 216), such as those configured to assist in localizing or directing nearby systems through the use of generally non-audible frequencies (for example, in various embodiments, audio transmitters or transceivers may be utilized to assist a mobile system, such as an augmented reality system in minimally-invasively“honing in upon” or locating (i.e., akin to the way in which a first person in the dark could whistle to second person in the dark assisting that second person in finding the first person) not only the audio transmitter or transceiver, but also another adjacent or co-located localization asset such as a light, infrared, RF, or other beacon, transmitter, and/or transceiver (i.e., either automatically through the suite of sensors available on an augmented reality system such as those featured in Figures 1 and 11, or in other embodiments manually or semi-automatically, such that an audio transmitter and/or transceiver is represented directionally in the user interface for the user, such as via a visual indicator such as an arrow in the user interface, and/or audio indicator through integrated speakers in the head mounted component), and/or infrared beacons which may be detected by the user’s augmented reality system to similarly attract and/or identify information pertaining to location and/or orientation.

[00143] Referring to Figure 12, an operational embodiment pertaining to a system such as that depicted in Figure 11 is illustrated. A user navigates the work wearing an augmented reality system (200). Within range of various wirelessly-connected resources, such as mobile telecom transceivers (such as LTE), GPS devices, 802.11 devices, and various types of beacons (such as Bluetooth RF, audio, and/or infrared beacons), the user’s augmented reality system may be configured to determine the user’s position and/or orientation relative to the world immediately around the user (224). Once the user’s initial position and/or orientation have been determined, sensors of the user’s augmented reality system, along with the specific wirelessly-connected resources, may be utilized to maintain an updated determination of the user’s position and/or orientation in the area or volume (226). Given an updated determination of the user’s position and/or orientation relative to a coordinate system of the locale as the user views and/or navigates around the locale, certain specialized content and information may be presented to the user through the user’s augmented reality system, including but not limited to content and information pertaining to other remote locales via“passable world” configurations (such as those described, for example, in U.S. Patent Application Serial Number 13/663,466, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety), which may be configured, for example, to allow other users and objects to virtually“teleport” to different locations to see imagery pertaining to the locale, and/or communicate with others who are there either in reality or virtually (206). A user interface of the user’s augmented reality system may be configured to allow the user to intake, utilize, view, and/or bypass certain information presented through the user’s augmented reality system (208), as described by way of example above in relation to Figure 10.

[00144] Referring to Figure 13, in another embodiment other detectable resources such as distinct geometries of buildings, skylines, horizons, and/or panoramas may be analyzed, such as via computer vision and/or image or feature processing techniques, utilizing connected systems and resources such as those depicted in Figures 1 and 11 to determine a user’s position and/or orientation. A user navigates the world wearing an augmented reality system (200). Within vicinity of various structures or other detectable resources, such as distinct geometries of one of more buildings, skylines, horizons, and/or panoramas, the user’s augmented reality system may be configured to determine the user’s position and/or orientation relative to the world immediately around the user by processing, thresholding, and/or comparing aspects of such images with known imagery pertaining to such scenes or resources (228). Once the user’s initial position and/or orientation have been determined, sensors of the user’s augmented reality system (such as color, monochrome, and/or infrared cameras) may be utilized to maintain an updated determination of the user’s position and/or orientation in the area or volume (230). Given an updated determination of the user’s position and/or orientation relative to a coordinate system of the locale as the user views and/or navigates around the locale, certain specialized content and information may be presented to the user through the user’s augmented reality system, including but not limited to content and information pertaining to other remote locales via“passable world” configurations (such as those described, for example, in U.S. Patent Application Serial Number 13/663,466, which is incorporated by reference herein in its entirety), which may be configured, for example, to allow other users and objects to virtually“teleport” to different locations to see imagery pertaining to the locale, and/or communicate with others who are there either in reality or virtually (206). A user interface of the user’s augmented reality system may be configured to allow the user to intake, utilize, view, and/or bypass certain information presented through the user’s augmented reality system (208), as described for example, above in relation to Figure 10. [00145] Figure 13 thus describes the additional detail wherein the first resource device is at first location, wherein the mobile device has a sensor that detects a first feature at the first location and the first feature is used to determine a first geographic parameter associated with the first feature, and wherein the content is first content specific to a first geographic parameter.

[00146] Referring to Figures 14-18, a paradigm for interconnected or integrated computing is presented, which may be termed“spatial computing”. As described above in reference to Figures 1-13, connected and portable personal computing systems such as those shown in Figure 1 may be integrated into the immediate world of the user, such that the user is able to be present in the space around them while also interacting in a sophisticated manner with the computing system. This is due, in part, to the portable nature of such system, but also is due to the connectivity of various resources, as described above, and also due to the fact that various embodiments are designed to facilitate normal activity while also operating the computing system. In other words, in various instantiations, such a computing system may be worn and operated as a person walks around and functions through the space of daily life, whether indoors or outdoors, and the computing system may be configured and be adapted to provide specialized and tailored functionality for the user based upon, and/or in reaction to certain inputs provided as a result of the spatial environment around the user.

[00147] Referring to Figure 14, the notion of“spatial computing” may be defined to be associated with several attributes, including but not limited to presence, persistence, scale, awareness, interactivity, respect, and sentience. For example, in terms of presence, the subject integrated system components may be configured to amplify a user’s capability without affecting the user’s presence in the physical world. In terms of persistence, the subject integrated system components may be configured to facilitate the lifecycle of the user’s attention, focus, and interaction with the physical world around them and any“digital inhabitants” (i.e., such as digital or virtual characters or visitors represented digitally) associated therewith, to grow in context and depth over time, with digital content and inhabitants being configurable to continue their life pathways even with the subject computing systems are not being actively utilized by a user. In terms of scale, the subject integrated system components may be configured to deliver anything from very large scale to relatively small-scale imagery or content to the user. In terms of awareness, the subject integrated system components may be configured to leverage information, signals, connected devices, and other inputs to provide the user with an enhanced understanding of the physical and digital worlds around them. In terms of interactivity, the subject integrated system components may be configured to present digital content that is responsive to natural human signals or inputs, such as head, eye, hand, voice, facial, and other inputs, as wells as those associated with various tools. In terms of respect, the subject integrated system components may be configured to provide imagery, content, and digital behavior that integrates into the world around the user, such as by providing synthetic light shadow casting to match the room, by adding reverb into audio to match the sound physics of the room, or by appropriately occluding various digital/virtual objects relative to each other as would be perceived in reality. In terms of sentience, the subject integrated system

components may be configured to provide a level of synthetic awareness of who the user is and what the world is like around the user, so that the system is able to synthetically understand the world as the user does, and utilize this synthetic intelligence to deliver a personalized and subjective experience to the user.

[00148] Referring to Figure 15, a diagram illustrates yet another way of representing the relationship between the user and the physical world with a spatial computing system. With breakthroughs in computational hardware, such as in central processing units (“CPU”), graphical processing units (“GPU”), along with pervasive high-bandwidth data transfer capabilities and relatively inexpensive and high speed memory devices, there is a confluence of important factors for spatial computing configurations. At the center of the depicted spatial computing paradigm is the user, with a human computing system (i.e., the brain) that is highly evolved and highly capable. Immediately adjacent to the depicted user is an intuitive interface layer, comprising systems such as that depicted in Figure 1, wherein a user may wear a wearable computing system and interact with it using voice commands, gestures, a hand-held component, and the like, as described in the aforementioned incorporated by reference descriptions. The human interface device (250) may also comprise computing systems such as tablet computers, smartphones, and laptop computers, vehicles (such as autonomous vehicles), wearable electronics of various types, drones, robots, and various other systems that provide the human user with access to computing and connected resources, as illustrated, for example, in Figure 16, which illustrates yet another hierarchical depiction of connected elements pertaining to a spatial computing environment.

[00149] The next depicted layer is a security / encryption layer (252). This layer is configured to insulate and protect the user from other systems or users which may want to gain access to the user’s data or meta data, which may include, for example, what the user likes, what the user does, where the user is located. Technologies such as blockchain may be utilized to assist in securing and configuring such a security layer, and interacting, for example, with a digital identification which may be configured to securely represent who the user is in the digital world, and may be facilitated by biometric authentication techniques.

[00150] A next adjacently positioned layer is the human-centered integrated spatial computing layer (254), which also may be referred to under the tradename,“MagicVerse”. This spatial computing layer also is shown in Figure 16, it may be configured to receive data from many sources, including but not limited to external developers, private developers, government sources, artificial intelligence sources, pre-trained models, deep learning models, psychological databases, current events databases, data sources pertaining to the individual operations of one of more users (which also may be termed the“lifestream” of the user), device data sources, authoritative data sources, corporate data sources, learned data sources, meshed data sources, contextual data sources, government services, common sources, competitor sources, communication sources, emerging data sources, device data sources, meshing or mapping operations, contextualized information, device data sources, and management services.

[00151] Referring ahead to Figure 17, it is useful to understand some of the basic tenets of how humans process and save information, as a spatial computing architecture is assembled. As shown in Figure 17, the human brain is able to receive a lot of information due to the operation of the eyes, ears, and other human sensors, and this information can enter into a sensory memory buffer. As it turns out, a lot of this information is not retained, perhaps because it is not as useful as other retained portions. Components of information that are useful may be moved to a working memory buffer, and eventually may be moved to long term memory, where there is potentially unlimited storage and indefinite retention. In various embodiments, a spatial computing system may be configured to increase the proportion of information pushed into working memory that is, indeed, useful information for the user. In other words, the preference is to add value to the user wherever possible, particularly is the cognitive load to the user’s brain is to be increased.

[00152] Referring back to Figure 15, the human-centered spatial computing layer, or “MagicVerse”, interfaces with everything around it. For example, referring ahead to Figure 18, the human-centered spatial computing layer is illustrated in informational coupling with many different sources of data, in various embodiments in as parallel a configuration as possible. The human-centered spatial computing layer may be understood as an integration with all of the systems around the user, from smartphones to internet-of-things integration capable devices, to virtual reality / augmented reality / mixed reality (socalled“XR”) devices, to various vehicles, databases, networks, and systems.

[00153] The next layer illustrated in Figure 15 is an abstraction and arbitration layer (256) interposed between the user, the human device interface, the human-centered spatial computing layer, and computing resource layers such as edge computing (258), fog computing (260), and cloud computing resources (262).

[00154] Figures 15 to 18 describe the additional detail of a spatial computing layer between the mobile device and a resource layer having a plurality of data sources and programmed to receive data resources, integrate the data resources to determine an integrated profile; and determine the first content based on the integrated profile. The spatial computing layer includes a spatial computing resource device having a spatial computing resource device processor, a spatial computing resource device storage medium, and a spatial computing resource device data set on the spatial computing resource device storage medium and executable by the processor to receive the data resources, integrate the data resources to determine an integrated profile, and determine the first content based on the integrated profile. The content provisioning system further includes an abstraction and arbitration layer interposed between the mobile device and the resource layer and programmed to make workload decisions, and distribute tasks based on the workload decisions.

[00155] One portion of the three outermost layers is depicted missing to represent the fact that the real physical world (264) is part of the integrated system, in other words, the world may be utilized to assist in computing, to make various decisions, and to identify various items. The content provisioning system includes a camera device that takes images of a physical world around the mobile device. The images may be used to make the workload decisions. The images may form one of the data resources.

[00156] Referring to Figures 19A-26C, various embodiments pertaining to connectivity alternatives are illustrated, which are suitable for use with various subject spatial computing configurations. For example, referring to Figure 19A, a configuration is illustrated that takes advantage of relatively high bandwidth mobile telecommunication connectivity, such as those available using 3G, 4G, 5G, LTE, and other telecommunication technologies, and local networking connectivity, such as via Wi-Fi and cable connectivity endpoints, wherein such connectivity advancements may be utilized to connect at relatively low latency to remote (i.e., not immediately on-board the user’s person) computing resources.

[00157] Figure 19A illustrates a configuration wherein a user is wearing a system such as that depicted in Figure 1, for example comprising a head wearable component (2) and interconnected auxiliary computing or controller component (6, also may be known as a “belt pack” due to the fact that in some variations, such computing component may be configured to be connected to a belt or waist area of the user). Figure 19B illustrates a configuration similar to that of Figure 19A, with the exception that the user is wearing a single-component configuration (i.e., it only has a head wearable component 2, with the functional replacement for the interconnected auxiliary computing or controller component 6 being off-person in the form of fog, edge, and/or cloud resources). Referring back to Figure 19A, socalled“edge” computing and/or storage resources generally are positioned closer to the user than are“fog” computing and/or storage resources, which are closer than generally more powerful and more remote“cloud” resources. As shown in Figures 19A and 19B, generally closer (and generally less powerful in terms of raw compute resource) edge resources will be available to the user’s local intercoupled computing resources (2, 6) with relatively lower latency than will fog resources (which generally will have an intermediate level of raw compute resource), which generally will be defined to have mid-level latency, and cloud resources, which are positioned yet farther away, with the most latency and generally also the most raw computing power. Thus, with such a configuration, as the resources are positioned farther away from the user, there is more latency and also more raw computing resource capability.

[00158] Figures 19A and 19B describe the additional detail wherein the mobile device communication interface includes one or more mobile device receivers connected to the mobile device processor and to a second resource device communication interface in parallel with the connection with the first resource device to receive second content. In the given example, the second resource device is a fog resource device having a second latency that is slower than the first latency. The mobile device communication interface includes one or more mobile device receivers connected to the mobile device processor and to a third resource device communication interface in parallel with the connection with the second resource device to receive third content transmitted by the third resource device transmitter, wherein the third resource device is a cloud resource device having a third latency that is slower than the second latency. The connection to the edge resource device is through a cell tower and the connection to the fog resource device is through a Wi-Fi connection device. The cell tower is connected to the fog resource device. The Wi-Fi connection device is connected to the fog resource device.

[00159] In various embodiments, such configurations are controlled to distribute workloads to the various resources depending upon the need for computing workload versus latency. For example, referring to Figures 20A and 20B, which illustrate users with connected computing systems similar to those illustrated in Figures 19A and 19B, computation may be distributed amongst the edge, fog, and cloud computing resources based upon latency and computing requirements. Referring back to Figures 19A and 19B, such a computing need may be directed from the resources local to the user, through an application programming interface (“API”) that is configured to do compute abstraction, artificial intelligence (“AI”) abstraction, network abstraction, and arbitration computation to drive distribution of compute tasks to the various edge, fog, and cloud computing resources based upon latency and computing requirements. In other words, whichever local XR computing device (i.e., wearable system such as is shown in Figure 1, or tablet computer, etc.) the user has locally that is to be interfaced with the human-centered integrated spatial computing system (again, which may be known as the“MagicVerse”), can separate the workload, and based upon whatever format this workload comes in, and where it needs to go for external computing and/or storage resource, and the size the type of files involved - the compute abstraction node may be configured to handle such processing and directing, such as by reading certain file formats, cache-ing packets that are of certain sizes, moving certain documents or files around as needed, etc. The AI abstraction node may be configured, for example, to receive the workload and examine what kind of processing model needs to be utilized and run, and pull particular workload elements out of memory, such that as more data is received, it can run faster. The network abstraction node may be configured to constantly analyze connected network resources, analyze their quality of connectivity, signal strength, and capabilities for various types of processes to be encountered, so that it may assist in directing workload to the various network resources as optimally as possible. The arbitration node may be configured to execute in dividing up the various tasks and subtasks and sending them out to the various resources. Referring to Figure 21, computational loads may be distributed in many ways, many directions, so that the net result at the endpoint is optimized in terms of performance and latency. For example, head pose determination (i.e., orientation of a user’s head relative to the environment around the user when wearing a head worn component 2 such as that depicted in Figure 1, generally would affect perception by the user in an augmented reality configuration such as that shown in Figure 1), wherein relatively low latency may be of paramount importance, may be at least primarily run using edge resources, while a semantic labelling service, for which ultra-low latency is not as important (i.e., the labels are not absolutely necessary at runtime), may be run using datacenter cloud resources. As noted above, edge resources generally are configured to have lower latency and less raw compute power, they may be positioned at the’’edge” of computational need, thus the resource’s name. There are many different ways to configure an edge computing resource. For example, commercially available edge type resources may include those sold under the tradenames“Movidius Neural Computer Stick” (TM) by Intel, Inc., or“Jetson Nano” (TM) or“Jetson TX2” (TM), both by Nvidia, Inc., or“AGX Xavier” (TM) by Nvidia, Inc.. Each of these generally comprises both a CPU and graphics GPU resource, they may be intercoupled with camera devices, microphone devices, memory devices, and the like, and connected to the user endpoint with high-speed bandwidth connectivity, for example. Such resources also may be configured to comprise custom processors, such as application specific integrated circuits (“ASIC”), which may be specifically for deep learning or neural network tasks. Edge compute nodes also may be configured to be aggregated to increase the computing resource of whatever room a user is located within (i.e., a room with 5 edge nodes may be configured to functionally have 5x the computational power than without, with the abstraction and arbitration layers, such as those illustrated in Figures 19A and 19B, coordinating such activity).

[00160] Referring to Figures 22A and 22B, configurations are illustrated wherein a room with multiple cameras around the user is utilized, images from the cameras may be separated and directed into different computing resources for various reasons. For example, in a scenario wherein a head pose determination process is to be conducted repeatedly at relatively high frequency, frames may be sent to the edge node for relatively low-latency processing, in parallel, what may be termed a dynamic resolution computational schema (in one variation, it may be configured for tensor training decomposition to execute dynamic downgrades in resolution, which may be simplified as taking a tensor and combining lower rank features, so that the system is only computing pieces or portions), frames may also be sent to the fog and cloud resources to be further contextualized and understood relative to the user’s XR computing system (Figure 22A illustrates a user computing configuration similar to that shown in Figure 1, as do those of Figures 19A, 20A, 23 A, and 24A), Figure 22B illustrates a configuration as in Figures 19B, 20B, 23B, and 24B without an

interconnected auxiliary computing component (6), due to the functional replacement for such resource being positioned within the aggregation of the edge, fog, and cloud resources.

[00161] Figures 22A and 22B show the additional detail of at least one camera to capture at least first and second images, wherein the mobile device processor transmits the first image to the edge resource device for faster processing and the second image to the fog resource device for slower processing. The at least one camera is a room camera that takes the first image of the user.

[00162] Referring to Figures 23A and 23B, various“internet-of-things” (i.e., configured to be easily interfaced with network controls, generally through internet connectivity such as IEEE 802.11 - based wireless networking) resources may be connected to the user’s local computing resources via edge computing resources, and thus processing and control pertaining to each of these resources may be done, at least in part, off of the wearable computing system.

[00163] Referring to Figures 24A and 24B, many types of wearable technologies may be connected to edge computing resources, such as via available network connectivity modalities, for example IEEE 802.11 Wi-Fi modalities, WiFi-6 modalities, and/or Bluetooth (TM) modalities.

[00164] Referring to Figure 25 A, with a system similar to that depicted in Figure 1, the system may be configured to allow a user to utilize a wired connection to couple his local system to external resources for additional computer, storage, and/or power, such as via direct coupling to one or more antennae, computing workstations, laptop computers, mobile computing devices such as smartphones and/or tablets, edge computing resources, and power supplies for charging his local computing system power supply (i.e., battery). Such connectivity may be facilitated by an API configured to operate as a layer on top of each of the connected resource operating systems, such as Android (TM), iOS (TM), Windows (TM), Linux (TM), and the like. Preferably such resources may be added or disconnected by the user during operation, depending upon the user’s ability to remain proximal and desire to utilize such resources. In another embodiment, multiple such resources may be bridged together in interconnectivity with the user’s local computing system. Referring to Figure 25B, an embodiment is shown that is similar to that of Figure 25 A, with the exception that an interconnected auxiliary computing component (6) may be coupled to the user and wirelessly coupled to a hear wearable component (2), such as via Bluetooth,

802.11, WiFi-6, Wi-Fi Halo, and the like. Such a configuration may be utilized in the contexts above, such as in the configurations shown in Figures 19A, 20A, 22A, 23 A, and 24A (in other words, with such a“hybrid” configuration, a user still has the interconnected auxiliary computing component 6 on his or her person, but this component is wirelessly connected to the head wearable component 2 rather than connected by a tethered coupling). Referring to Figure 25C, a user is shown with a head wearable component, such as that shown in Figure 1 (element 2), that is intercoupled to other computing resources wirelessly, as in the embodiments of Figures 19B, 20B, 22B, 23B, and 24B, also shown is an XR device on the user’s person that may also be intercoupled with the depicted remote resources, such as by wired or wireless connectivity. Figure 25D illustrates that such remote resources may be intercoupled not only to a wearable or hand-holdable XR or other device, but to a variety of local computing resources, such as those that may be coupled to, for example, an automobile in which a user may be sitting. Referring to Figure 25E, a configuration similar to that of Figure 25C is shown, but also with the reminder that additional computing and/or storage resources may be intercoupled as well, such as fog and/or cloud resources, as discussed, for example, in reference to Figures 19B, 20B, 21, 22B, 23B, and 24B.

[00165] Referring to Figures 26A-26C, as relatively high-bandwidth, low latency mobile connectivity becomes more prevalent, rather than or in addition to placing mobile devices in an effective cloud of signals from various sources, as shown in Figure 26A, beam forming configurations, such as those featuring phased array antennae configurations as shown in Figure 26B, may be utilized to effectively“steer” and concentrate or focus connectivity toward one or more particular mobile computing devices, as shown in Figure 26C. With an enhanced knowledge or understanding of a location and/or orientation of particular mobile computing device (for example, in various embodiments due to pose determination techniques, such as those involving cameras positioned upon or coupled to such mobile computing device), connectivity resources may be at least provided in a more directed and conserved manner (i.e., pose may be mapped and fed back to the beam forming antennae to direct connectivity more precisely). In one variation, a configuration as illustrated in Figure 26C may be accomplished, for example, using a radar hologram type of transmission connector, such that an effective point-to-point communications link is formed using focused signal coherence.

[00166] Figures 26A to 26C describe additional features of a content provisioning system further including a sensor (350) providing a sensor input into a processor (352), a pose estimator (354), executable by a processor (352), to calculate to a pose (356) of the mobile device (head-worn viewing component (2)), including at least one of a location and an orientation of the mobile device, based on the sensor input, a steerable wireless connector (358) that creates a steerable wireless connection (360) between the mobile device and the edge resource device (362), and a steering system connected to the pose estimator and having an output that provides an input into the steerable wireless connector to steer the steerable wireless connection to at least improve the connection. Although all these features are not present in 26A to 26C they can be inferred from 26A to 26C or other figures and related description herein.

[00167] Referring to Figure 27, a depiction of fog computing, which also may be known as“ambient computing” is shown, with different“rings” of compute which correspond to levels of latency relative to a user device, such as the various XR devices, robots, cars, and other devices shown in the outer ring. The adjacent ring inward is illustrative of edge computing resources, which may include various edge node hardware, such as those described above, these may include various forms of proprietary 5G antennae and connectivity modalities. The central ring represents cloud resources.

[00168] Referring to Figures 28A-28C, in between edge, fog, and cloud layers, there may be communication layers comprising various forms of connectivity, including fiber optics, coaxial cabling, twisted pair cabling satellite, various other wireless connectivity modalities. Figure 28A illustrates the user being wirelessly connected to edge resources, which may be sequentially connected to fog and cloud resources, Figure 28B illustrates a configuration wherein the user is hardware-connected (i.e., via cabling, fiber optic, or other non-wireless connectivity modality) to edge resources, which may be sequentially connected to fog and cloud resources, Figure 28C illustrates the user being both wirelessly and hardware- connected to all resources in parallel, thus various such connectivity permutations are envisioned. Referring back to Figure 21, one challenge with management of such resources is how to move and distribute computing loads up and down the hierarchy between edge, fog, and cloud resources. In various embodiments, a deep arbitration layer may be utilized that is based upon reinforcement learning (i.e., in one variation, functional requests may be sent to edge resources, certain tasks may be sent out to fog resources, the“reward” for the reinforcement learning paradigm may be whatever computing node configuration ends up being fastest, and thus a feedback loop optimizes the responsive arbitration configuration, with the overall functionality being one that improves as the resources“learn” how to optimize). [00169] Referring back to Figure 15, the physical world is depicted impinging into the edge, cloud, and fog layers, this is meant to represent the notion that the further away something is, the closer it is functionally to the cloud data center, but also these resources may be accessed in parallel.

[00170] Referring to Figures 29A and 29B, various types of connectivity resources are illustrated for an XR device, such as a head wearable component (2) for a system such as that illustrated in Figure 1, as noted above, such component may be connected to other resources using hardware-based connectivity as well as various wireless connectivity paradigms. Referring to Figure 30A, a configuration similar to that of Figure 1, with a head wearable component hardware-coupled to a belt-pack style computing component, may be connected to various off-person resources as described above, for example in reference to Figures 19A, 20A, 22A, 24A, and 25A, Figure 30B illustrates a configuration wherein one or more XR devices, such as a head wearable AR component, or a tablet computer or smartphone, may be connected to external resources as described, for example, in Figures 19B, 20B, 22B, 24B, and 25B, 25C, 25D, and 25E.

[00171] Referring to Figure 31, a paradigm (400 to 428) is illustrated for arbitrating and allocating relative to external resources such as edge compute (416 A), fog compute (416B), and cloud compute (416C) resources. For example, as shown in Figure 31, data may be received (400) from the XR device local to the user (i.e., such as a wearable computing component, tablet computer, smartphone), a simple logic format check (402) may be conducted, and the system may be configured to verify that the correct choices have been made in the format check with a simple error check (404), the data may then be converted to a preferred format (406) for optimized computing interfacing, alternatively APIs for the various connected resources may be utilized, an additional error check (408) may be conducted to confirm proper conversion, then a decision (410) is presented as to whether the pertinent process is a runtime process or not, if it is, then the system may be configured to process the issue immediately and return (412) it to the connected device. If it is not, then batching to external resources may be entertained, in which case an arbitrator function (414) is configured to analyze how many instances of cloud, edge, and/or fog resources (416A to 416C) are available and to be utilized, and processing tasks are sent out. Once that data is processed, it may be combined (422) back into a single model which may be returned (424) to the device. A copy of the combined model (418) may be taken along with the related resource configuration specifics, and fed back (420) to the arbitrator (414) and run in the background with a different scenario (and will continue to do that as it“learns” and optimizes the configuration to apply for that type of data input, with the error function eventually moving toward zero).

[00172] Figure 31 describes that the content provisioning system (400 to 428) includes an arbitrator function executable by a processor to determine how many edge and fog resources are available through the edge and fog resource devices respectively, send processing tasks to the edge and fog resources according to the determination of the resources that are available, and receive results back from the edge and fog resources. The arbitrator function is executable by the processor to combine the results from the edge and fog resources. The content provisioning system further includes a runtime controller function executable by the processor to determine whether a process is a runtime process or not, if the determination is made that the task is a runtime process then, executing the task immediately without making the determination with the arbitrator function, and if the determination is made that the task is not a runtime process then making the determination with the arbitrator function.

[00173] Referring to Figure 32, one variation of a human-centered integrated spatial computing (“Magic Verse”) generalized operational diagram is illustrated. The basic operational elements are illustrated for creating a spatial computing type of experience, in relatively simplified form. For example, referring to the bottom-most depicted layer, the physical world may be recreated geometrically, at least in part, via simultaneous localization and mapping (“SLAM”) and visual odometry techniques, the system may also be connected to information pertinent to environmental factors such as the weather, power configurations, internet of things devices nearby, and connectivity factors, such data may be utilized as inputs to create what may be called a“digital twin” of the environment (or digitally reconstructed model of the physical world, as shown in the second layer from the bottom in Figure 32), which models geometry, mapping, location, orientation, and other factors pertaining to things within the particular environment of interest, which may be a room, a building, or even a city. The security layer may be configured to control access to specific aspects of the spatial computing paradigm, as discussed, for example, above. The security layer may also be configured to protect and manage personal data, unlock doors, buildings, and other structures with“geo fence” type of security management, and the like. The next depicted layer is the“pose” layer, which may be configured to construct an aggregated “pose map” comprising the projection matrices, which are 6 degree-of-freedom (DOF) descriptors pertinent to location and orientation of various other devices capturing such data, such as other XR devices. In other words, the system preferably is configured to take advantage of the presence and data capture of other devices within the same environment or nearby environment, so that an aggregation of these datasets may be presented and utilized to assist with interactions, mapping, localization, orientation, interactions, and analytics relative to such environment. The depicted“render layer” may be configured to aggregate all information being rendered by the local device and other nearby devices which may be interconnected by resources such as edge, fog, and/or cloud. This includes creating zones for starting and stopping predictions, so that more complex and higher-dimensional predictions may be implemented at runtime. Also depicted is a“semantic layer”, which may be configured to segment and label objects in the physical world, as represented in the digital model of the world to be displayed to the user or users. This layer generally may be thought of as the basis for natural language processing, as well as other recursive neural network (“RNN”), convolutional neural network (“CNN”), and deep learning

methodologies. The“contextual layer” may be configured to provide results returned from the semantic layer in human-relatable terms, based upon inferred actions and configurations. This and the semantic layer may be configured to provide key inputs to“artificial intelligence” functionalities. The“experience layer” and“application layer” are exposed directly to the user in the form of executable user interfaces, for example, using various XR devices, such as systems like the one shown in Figure 1. These upper layers are configured to utilize information from all of the layers depicted below them, to create multi-user, multi device, multi -location, multi-application experiences, preferably in a manner as usable as possible by the human operator.

[00174] Referring to Figure 33, a schematic is illustrated to show connectivity of multiple overlapping edge computing nodes inside of a larger fog computing node wherein seamless handoffs or transfers are enabled between edge computing devices. In a system designed for a massively multiplayer online“MMO”-like systems, the various components may be configured to scan the nearby physical world environment in real or near-real time to continually establish more refined meshing and mapping information. In parallel, feature identification used within these meshes and maps may be utilized to create very reliable and high-confidence points, which may be known as“superpoints”. These superpoints may be contextualized to represent physical objects in the world, and used to overlap multiple devices in the same space. When the same application is running on multiple devices, these superpoints may be utilized to create anchors which reference a common coordinate system for projection of transformation matrices of content to each user on each pertinent XR device. In other words, each of these users is able to take advantage of the superpoints to assist in pose determination, localization (i.e., location and orientation determination in the local coordinate system relative to the superpoint), they effectively become reliable waypoints for XR users navigating the space in reality or virtually.

[00175] As in an MMO-like system, content is stored based upon the coordinate system that the user interacts within. This may be accomplished in a database wherein a specific piece of content may have a JSON (JavaScript object notation) which describes position, orientation, state, time stamp, owner, etc. This stored information is generally is not replicated locally on the user’s XR device until the user crosses a location-based boundary and begins download of the content in the predicted future. In order to predict the future, machine learning and/or deep learning algorithms may be configured to use information such as speed, acceleration, distance, direction, behavior, and other factors. This content may be configured to be always located in the same position unless interacted with by one or more users to be re-located, either by manual means (i.e., such as drag and drop using an XR interface) or by programming manipulation. Once new content is downloaded based upon the aforementioned factors, it may be saved onto a local computational device, such as that shown in the form of the computing pack (6) in reference to Figure 1. Such downloading may be conducted continuously, scheduled, or as needed, depending upon situational factors and available resources. In various embodiments, such as that depicted in Figure 1 wherein there are not significant connected compute resources available, all of the rendering (such as for headpose and other mixed reality general operational runtime components) may be completed on the local computing resources (i.e., such as a CPU and GPU which may be housed locally to the user’s person).

[00176] Figure 33 describes that the content provisioning system includes a plurality of edge resource devices, data exchanging between a plurality of the edge resource devices and the fog resource device, the data including points in space captured by different sensors and sent to the edge resource devices, and a superpoint calculation function, executable by a processor, to determine superpoints, being select ones of the points where the data from two or more of the edge resource devices overlap. The content provisioning system further includes a plurality of multiple mobile devices, wherein each superpoint is used in each mobile devices for localization, orientation or pose estimation of the respective mobile device.

[00177] Referring to Figure 34, a generalized startup/bootup procedure - to - operation is illustrated for a configuration which may have distributed resources interconnected (i.e., such as edge, fog, and/or cloud resources), as well as point to point encryption therebetween, the connectivity being provided, for example, by wireless or wired connections, such as the aforementioned WiFi, mobile wireless, and other hardware-based and wireless-based connectivity paradigms.

[00178] Referring to Figure 35, another MMO-like configuration is illustrated, wherein a generalization of computational requirements relative to the scale of individual XR user nodes is shown. In other words, in various embodiments, it takes a relatively large amount of external resource to support each individual XR user node, as also illustrated in Figure 16, wherein many resources are driven toward each human-centered integrated spatial computing instantiation.

[00179] Figure 35 describes that the content provisioning system includes a context trigger function, executable with a processor, to generate a context trigger for a group of the superpoints and store the context trigger on a computer-readable medium.

[00180] Referring to Figure 36, various computational stacks are illustrated for an embodiment of human-centered integrated spatial computing as shown in Figure 35. The physical world is shared by all users, based upon the parameters of each particular XR device used by each user, the system is configured to abstract interaction with each of such devices. For example, an Android (TM) cellphone will use an Android (TM) operating system, and may use AR-core (TM) for perception and anchoring. This allows the system to work with already-developed perception stacks which may be optimized for use with many particular devices for interaction in the human-centered integrated spatial computing world. To enable use with many different devices, a software development kit (“SDK”) may be distributed. The term“spatial atlas” may be used in reference to a mesh ownership and operation configuration, whereby various objects, locations, and map features may be labelled, owned, sold, excluded, protected, and administered with a central authoritative database. A“context trigger” is a description of one or more superpoints and related meta data, which may be utilized to describe what various things are in the real and/or digital world, and how they may be utilized in various ways. For example, four corner superpoints pertaining to the structure of a cellphone may be assigned to have the cellphone structure operate as a sword handle in a digital environment. At the top of the illustrated stack, application client and backend information are shown, which may represent the interaction layer at the XR and/or server levels, for the user to interact with the human-centered integrated spatial computing configuration.

[00181] Referring to Figure 37, a configuration for discovering, switching, and controlling elements within an XR user’s immediate radius is illustrated. The rectangular stack refers to an application management tool adapted for spatial computing, the circular stack pertains to an integration of a digital model of the physical world (i.e., the“digital twin”), third party developer content via published SDK and API, and an XR-as-a-service configuration, wherein a user of an XR device may effectively log in to a curated environment to experience augmented or virtual reality imagery, sounds, and the like.

[00182] What may be termed“Spatial Understanding” is an important skill for machines that have to either directly interact with the physical 3D world (e.g., a robot that walks and picks up thrash) or machines that indirectly interact with the 3D world (e.g., Mixed Reality glasses that create high-quality 3D graphics that respect 3D world geometry). Humans generally already have excellent spatial reasoning skills, but even“smart glasses” that are worn by a user must perform their own version of spatial reasoning. Computer scientists have developed certain algorithms suitable for extraction of 3D data and spatial reasoning about the world. The notion of“superpoints” has been described above and in the associated incorporated references, herein we describe a superpoint-based formulation of spatial reasoning that heavily relies on a stream of input images.

[00183] As noted above, one particular class of 3D-building algorithms that are pertinent to spatial computing configurations are typically referred to as simultaneous localization and mapping (“SLAM”). SLAM systems may be configured to take as input a sequence of images (color or depth images) and other sensor readings (e.g., inertial measurement units (“IMUs”)) and provide real-time localization of the current device pose. A pose is typically the rotation matrix R and translation vector t corresponding to the camera coordinate system. A SLAM algorithm may be configured to be able to produce pose because behind the scenes it interleaves two core operations: Map-building and Localization against the map.

[00184] The term“Visual SLAM” may be used in reference to a variant of SLAM that heavily relies on camera images. As opposed to 3D scanners such as LIDAR which the robotics community developed to help in performing SLAM for industrial applications, cameras are significantly smaller, are much more prevalent, cheaper, and easier to work with. Modem off-the-shelf camera modules are tiny and with camera images it is possible to build a very small and efficient Visual SLAM systems.

[00185] What may be termed“Monocular Visual SLAM” is a variant of Visual SLAM that uses a single camera. The major benefit of using a single camera as opposed to two or more is the reduced client form factor. With two cameras, great care must be taken to keep the multi-camera assembly rigid. The two major drawbacks of monocular visual SLAM are the following:

[00186] 1. Monocular visual SLAM generally cannot recover the 3D structure when there is no parallax, such as the camera system being rotated about the camera center. This is particularly problematic when the system starts out initially with no 3D structure and there is insufficient parallax motion during the initialization of the 3D map inside the algorithm.

[00187] 2. The second challenge is that monocular visual SLAM generally is unable to recover the absolute scale of the world. For any given monocular trajectory with recovered point depths Zi, it is possible to multiply all point 3D coordinates by a scalar alpha and scale the translation by alpha as well.

[00188] However, a small amount of extra information, such as odometry readings from local IMUs or depth data from an RGBD sensor is sufficient to prevent the monocular algorithms from degenerating in general.

[00189] A Visual SLAM system operates on images and produces both poses and a 3D map. The entire algorithm may be broken down into two stages: the frontend and the backend. The goal of the frontend is to extract salient 2D image features and describe them so that the raw RGB images are no longer necessary. The task of the frontend is often referred to as“data abstraction” because high-dimensional images are reduced to 2D points and descriptors whose nearest neighbor relationships hold. For properly trained descriptors, we can take the Euclidean distance between them to determine if the correspond to the same physical 3D point— but Euclidean distances on raw images are not meaningful. The goal of the backend is to take the abstractions from the frontend, namely the extracted 2D points and descriptors, and stitch them together to create a 3D map.

[00190] As described above and in the incorporated reference documentation, superpoint is a term that may be used for a convolutional deep learning-based frontend, designed for monocular visual SLAM. Traditional computer vision frontends for visual SLAM may consist of hand-crafted 2D keypoint detectors and descriptors. Traditional methods typically follow these steps: 1.) extract 2D key points, 2.) crop patches from the image around the extracted 2D keypoints, 3.) compute descriptors for each patch.“Deep Learning” configurations allow us to train a single multi-headed convolutional neural network that jointly performs the interest point and descriptor computation.

[00191] Given a sequence of 2D points tracked in an image,“bundle adjustment” is a term utilized for algorithms which may be used to optimize jointly for the 3D structure and camera poses that best explain the 2D point observations. The algorithms may be configured to minimize the re-projection errors (or rectification error) of the 3D points using a non linear least squares formulation.

[00192] Superpoint, as a deep learning formulation of feature extraction, may be configured as a network that contains very little manual-engineering (i.e., manual input). While the network may be designed to take an image as input and provide both 2d point locations and associated descriptors, it generally cannot do so until it is first trained on a proper dataset. The knowledge of how to extract those 2D points is never explicitly delineated. The network is trained using back propagation on a labeled dataset.

[00193] We previously have described how to train the first part of superpoint: the key point localization head. This may be accomplished by creating a large synthetic dataset of corners and the resulting network (which is just like superpoint but does not contain descriptors), this may be referred to as a“MagicPoint”.

[00194] Once one has a MagicPoint, one has a way of extracting 2D key points from an arbitrary image. Generally, one still needs to 1.) improve the performance of key point detection on real-world images and 2.) add the descriptor to the network. Improving performance on real-world images means that one must train on real-world images. Adding the descriptor means that one generally must train on pairs of images because one must provide the algorithms with positive and negative pairs of key points to learn their descriptor embeddings.

[00195] A so-called MagicPoint configuration may be run on real images using synthetic homographies with a procedure that may be called“Homographic Adaptation”. This provides for better labels on those images than running MagicPoint only once per image. Synthetic homographies may be used to take an input image I and create two warped versions G and I”. Since a composition of homographies is still a homography, one may train on the pair of images (G, I”) with the homography between them.

[00196] The resulting system may be called superpoint vl and is the result of running MagicPoint on random real-world images using Homographic Adaptation.

[00197] At this point one has what may be termed a“superpoint vl”, a convolutional frontend that provides all that is necessary for a barebones Visual Odometry or Visual SLAM system. However, superpoint vl was trained using random (non-temporally ordered images) and all image-image variations were due to synthetic homographies and synthetic noise. In order to make a better superpoint system, one may re-train“superpoint_v2” on real-world sequences using the output of SLAM.

[00198] Referring to Figure 38, superpoint-based SLAM consists of two key components, the deep learning-based frontend (see block two) and the bundle-adjustment-based backend (see blocks three and four). For the frontend, or“feature extraction” stage of the pipeline, one may use the superpoint network, as described above, which produces 2d point locations as well as a real-valued descriptor per-point.

[00199] The backend may be configured to perform two tasks: providing the pose of the current measurements (Localization, see block two in Figure 1), and integrating the current measurements into the current 3D map (Map Update, see block three in Figure 1). The system is able to utilize auxiliary input in the form of a depth image (as obtained from either a multi-view stereo system, a depth sensor, or a deep-learning based depth regression network) as well as auxiliary pose (as obtained from off-the-shelf Augmented Reality frameworks present in consumer smartphones like Apple’s (TM) ARKit (TM) and Google’s (TM) ARCore (TM)). The subject system may be configured to not require the auxiliary inputs (see block one, bottom, in Figure 38), but they can be used to improve both localization and mapping.

[00200] The localization module (see block three in Figure 38), may be configured to take as input the points and descriptors as well as the current 3D map (which is a collection of 3D points and their associated descriptors) and produce a current pose estimate. This module may utilize information from a depth map by associating valid real-world depth values for observed 2d points. Auxiliary pose information from block one also may be fed as input to the localization module. In the absence of auxiliary information such as depth or pose, the module may be configured to use the perspective-n-point (“PnP”) algorithm to estimate the transformation between the 3D points in the map and the 2d point observations from the current image.

[00201] The map update module may be configured to take as input the current map as well as the current image observations with the estimated pose and produces a new updated map. The map may be updated by minimizing the reprojection error of the 3D points in a large number of keyframes. This may be achieved by setting up a bundle adjustment optimization problem as is commonly done in known“Structure-from -Motion” computer vision literature. The bundle adjustment problem is a non-linear least squares optimization problem and can be efficiently solved using the second order Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. [00202] Generally, a system which uses superpoint may be configured such that it needs to make certain design decisions regarding the layout of the computations. On one extreme, all computations involved in dealing with the camera sensor and forming a well-behaved intensity image must happen locally (see block One in Figure 38). Below are described a family of four distributed SLAM systems which perform a subset of the necessary computations locally, and the remainder of operations are performed in the cloud. The four systems are as follows: 1. local on-device, 2. cloud mapping, 3. local superpoint, and 4. all cloud.

[00203] Local on-device SLAM (100% local). On one extreme, it is possible to take all that is required for localization and mapping and put that directly on the device with the cameras. In this scenario, blocks one, block two, block three, and block four in Figure 38 all may be performed locally.

[00204] Local superpoint, local localization, cloud mapping SLAM (66.7% local).

Another client variation is one wherein super point extraction is performed locally as well as localization against a known map. With such a configuration, the only part that is running on the cloud is the map update operation (block four). The cloud component will update the map (using a potentially much larger set of computational resources) and send a version of the map down to the client. This version allows more seamless tracking in the presence of communication channel interruptions.

[00205] Local superpoint, cloud localization, cloud mapping SLAM (33.3% local). In this embodiment, while camera capture must be perform locally on the device (i.e., a camera next to the server racks in a datacenter won’t help with SLAM), it is possible to only perform a subset of the computations on the local device and the rest in the cloud. In this version of the client, block one and block two (referring to Figure 38) are performed locally, while block three and block four are performed in the cloud. For this to work, the local system generally must send the points and descriptors into the cloud for further processing.

[00206] Cloud-based SLAM (0% local). On another extreme, it is possible to perform all SLAM computations in the cloud (i.e., edge, fog, cloud resources as described above, for brevity in this section, we refer merely to“cloud”) with the device only providing images and a communication channel to the cloud compute resource. With such a thin client configuration, block two, block three, and block four may be performed in the cloud. Block one (image formation and capture) is still performed locally. In order to make such a system real-time (i.e., 30+ frames per second,“fps”), we may need to rapidly encode images and send them to the remote computing resources. The time required to both encode the image into a suitable payload and send the image over the network must be made as small as possible.

[00207] Comparison and Bandwidth-requirements. In each of the configurations discussed above that involve a cloud-component, some information from the local device generally must be sent to the cloud. In the case of cloud-slam, one must encode the images and send them to the SLAM system in the cloud. In the case of local super point processing, one may need to send the points and descriptors to the cloud. In the case of a hybrid system with cloud mapping and on-device localization, one may need to send the points, descriptors, and estimated pose to the cloud, but it need not be done at 30+ fps. If the map management is happening in the cloud but a localization module exists locally, then information pertaining to the current map may be periodically sent from the cloud to the client.

[00208] Table 1. Local vs. Cloud SLAM computation resource allocation. Map* indicates that the updated map does not have to be sent from the cloud very rapidly.

[00209] Assistance from other sensors and computational resources. The output of other sensors, such as IMUs and depth sensors, can be used to complement superpoint which generally only deals with raw images (color or grayscale). These additional sensors generally must be located on the same device as the physical image sensor. One may refer to these extra bits of information as auxiliary inputs since they are not a hard-requirement for our approach to work. From a computational resource perspective, one may also add additional compute units (such as more CPUs or more GPUs). Additional computational resources may be places far away from the local device, and may be located right in a cloud datacenter, for example. This way, the additional computational resources may be utilized for other tasks when the load is low.

[00210] Superpoint on head-mounted displays, smartphones, and other clients. The subject superpoint-based SLAM framework is designed to work across a broad spectrum devices which we refer to as clients. On one extreme, a client can be a barebones image sensor with a Wi-Fi module, and just enough computation to encode and send images over a network. On another extreme, the client may contain multiple cameras, a head-wearable display, additional locally-coupled compute resources, such as edge notes, etc., as described above.

[00211] Image-based localization and relocalization across time. By focusing on the machine learning-based extraction and summarization of visual information, the subject approach is designed to be more robust to lighting changes and environmental variations that are typically across 1-2 days in any given environment. This facilitates a SLAM session to persist across multiple days. Using classical image feature extraction procedures, only a small subset of the extracted 2D features are matchable in a tracking scenario. Because RANSAC and other outlier rejection mechanism are heavily used in traditional SLAM methods, those 2D features generally are not very robust for the task of relocalization across large changes in time.

[00212] Cross-device localization and relocalization across time. By focusing on images, it may be easier to build a map using one kind of client, and then utilize that map inside another client.

[00213] Multi-user localization and mapping. By performing the Cloud Update operations in the cloud, it may be relatively easy to have multiple clients share and update a single 3D map.

[00214] The aforementioned configurations facilitate the development and use of spatial computing systems with highly-distributed resource bases, such as those described below, and also above in reference to the various edge, fog, and cloud resource integrations.

[00215] Referring to Figure 39, with the advent of deep learning configurations, increased bandwidth communications, and advanced communications chipsets, one may configure systems to have both low latency and relatively high compute capability. Described below are further details regarding various configurations wherein certain services are moved away from the local computing hardware on the user’s person, to more distributed locations. This facilitates effectively turning XR devices associated with users into a type of thin client configuration, wherein the local hardware is relaying computed information, rather than doing all of the“heavy lifting” itself.

[00216] Thus in these related embodiments, which may also be termed variations on the theme of“Adaptive Neural Computing”, one may pull from many of the same services and sources as in a less connected configuration, and the challenges become more focused on connectivity than on carrying locally all of the requisite computer hardware. With the speeds and bandwidth achievable with IEEE 802.11 ax/ay (i.e., Wi-Fi 6) and 5G, one is able to rethink the ways in which various tasks pertaining to spatial computing may be conducted.

[00217] Generally, one of the challenges with Adaptive Neural Computing configurations is to relocate the computational load of the services required to operate the XR device. As described above, in various embodiments, this may be facilitated by creating edge node computational devices and sensors, as well as optimized fog nodes and cloud computing facilities.

[00218] An Adaptive Neural Computing edge node may be a comprehensive intemet-of- things (i.e., readily connectible using conventional network infrastructure) style device placed at the point of need or the“edge” of compute. Such a device may comprise a small computer capable of high bandwidth connectivity, high speed memory, a GPU, a CPU, and camera interfaces. Suitable edge nodes, as described above, include but are not limited to those marketed by Nvidia (TM) and Intel (TM).

[00219] Referring to Figure 40, a suitable edge node also may comprise a sensor capable of creating depth maps of the world, for example, this may include a pair of stereo cameras, an RGB-D camera, a LiDAR device, and/or a structured light sensor, each of which also may include an IMU, microphone array, and/or speaker. A preferred edge node also may serve as a Wi-Fi or 5G antenna.

[00220] Such an edge computational device may be configured to be the primary device for low latency operation to facilitate integration with spatial computing systems. For example, Figures 25A-25C illustrate embodiments of progressive enhancement of the capabilities for a user to interface with data and the digital world.

[00221] Integrated edge nodes may be configured scale from portable and small up to a full on-premises server capability. As noted above, the purpose of using such a distributed computation across the cloud systems is that at the point of need the lower latency operations will not be performed on a small computer tethered to the wearable.

[00222] World reconstruction (i.e., meshing, SLAM) described above in reference to MMO-like configurations with all or most computing resources on board the user’s person employ a local-service-based continuous operation configuration. One may utilize an “absolute” coordinate system as a model of the world (the geometry of the digital twin).

This model may be fed through a series of transforms until it is laid over the physical environment in a true-scale configuration. These transforms are essentially a calibration file that takes into account the intrinsics and extrinsics of the user’s system, the type of device the user is using, or the current state of the user.

[00223] Referring to Figure 41, with a“passable world” system wherein each online XR creates a portion of an aggregated model for an environment, an additional user is dependent upon the scanning of other devices creating such aggregation. To the contrary, with absolute world model, scans may be captured or created prior to a particular user’s runtime use, so that when a user with an XR device enters a given room, there is at least a baseline model of such room which may be utilized, while new/additional scanning may be conducted to improve upon such model. The so-called“baseline” model becomes the raw data, which can be contextualized so that when the XR device of a user enters the space, there is less latency, and the experience is more natural (i.e., a user’s XR device already knows something is a“chair”, or is able to determine this quickly based upon available information).

[00224] Once one has this model of the world in an authoritative server, one may implement uploads and downloads on a timetable determined to be most useful from the Digital Twin server to the edge/fog nodes in the local environments. This ensures that the devices are as up to date as is required for a specific application. [00225] Once a coordinate system has been established, it may be populated with data. There are various ways to accomplish this. For example, data from XR devices of various users may be pipelined or included on the local storage of an XR device new to the locale.

In another embodiment, various techniques and hardware, such as robotics, sensor- integrated backpacks, and the like may be utilized to provide periodically updated meshing/scanning of various environments. What these data sources do is capture data in the world and using the passable world object recognizers, temporal features, contrasting features, and supervised feature definition we can align the maps and through sensor fusion techniques such as an Extended Kalman-Bucy Filter (EKF) or Feedback Particle Filter (FPF) we can perform continuous time non-linear filtering and align these maps at run-time if needed. This combinatorial map may become the basis for how to perform tasks in spatial computing. The primary goal in this implementation is efficiency, so this means we do not need to constantly reconstruct the world we only need to capture the differences or deltas in the mapped world. In other words, if a mesh of a particular environment is stable, the entire mesh need not be replaced, but only the deltas or changes need to be added.

[00226] With all of the raw map data in an authoritative mesh storage device, such as a cloud server, one may now take such data and create an intelligently smoothed and textured view of the world which may be expressed in more detail. This is because it may be desirable to not only want to use this map to align digital content to, but also to recreate the world for virtual reality and pass-through XR technologies. Prior to this, one may contextualize the world to facilitate pre-identification prior to consumption of the data, as well as key features in the raw geometry.

[00227] Referring to Figure 42, one may need to recreate the digital twin of the world, such as by utilizing raw mesh data (shown on very left of Figure 42), such as from the outdoors, perhaps with many methods and combined into the Mesh database. For example, methods to recreate the outside world may include stereo camera reconstruction, structure from motion, multi-view stereo reconstruction, image based modeling, LiDar based modeling, inverse procedural modeling, faqade decomposition, faqade modeling, ground reconstruction, aerial reconstruction, and massive model reconstruction. These methods can all contribute the information to the Mesh database. The raw information then may be contextualized. One method for doing this is referred to as“brand recognition” through the process of multilayer language processing, RNNs, CNNs, supervised learning methods, and other methods. One may initially contextualize the information through many layers, firstly one may use techniques such as“edge contraction” to identify and simplify the point cloud and geometric information. One may analyze these changes using a persistent homology framework, for example. Referring again to Figure 42, one may identify various methods for taking raw point cloud or geometric information and contextualizing it for consumption by connected XR users, hitting on one goal of such a configuration, which is the unification of users and the physical world to the ever-growing and enriching digital one. Employing such processes and configurations leaves the world contextualized, providing the ability to scale to many more algorithms and models. Referring to Figure 43, one may take this

authoritative query-able mesh and extract features which may be identified as permanent, semi-permanent, and temporary. We can determine this with learning algorithms such as automatic parametric model reconstruction from the point cloud. This is another technique which may be used to fill in the gaps or scanning artifacts inside of a room and create a 3- dimensional reconstruction of the interior rooms using common features such as walls and doorways.

[00228] A next level may be to identify the semi-permanent structures or things in the room. One implementation accomplishes this with“hierarchal fine-grain segmentation” (i.e., segmenting to smaller and smaller features), which involves semantically labeling features on an object until the features are no longer discernable from one another. An example of this would be to continually segment then label the pieces of a chair.

[00229] After understanding the objects in the room, the semi-permanent objects may be identified as those objects, such as a large dining room table, which can move but probably will not frequently move, and/or will take a significant effort to move. Next, one may identify objects that are dynamically moving, such as laptops or clouds in the sky. This may be accomplished with object level scene reconstruction with proactive object analysis, for example. By constantly scanning a room and looking at the dynamic objects, the system may be configured to be able to increase the probability of proper segmentation.

[00230] Referring back to Figure 43, all of this algorithmic rigor facilitates the filtering of spatial information so that the user does not need to use it unless it is important, or the services enabling the XR experience need to compute less as they are only tracking the cluster of points representing the segmented object.

[00231] Once the room has been segmented, labeled and contextualized, one may turn to connecting the room to digital“sockets” - which is a metaphor that may be used for forming intersections between a digital world and the physical world. A digital socket may be an object, device, robot, or anything that plugs the digital world to the physical world. Intent to interact with the underlying digital world and how it effects the physical world may be conveyed through these sockets, such as by meta-data to each particular socket. If the physical world is too dark for example, the user interfaces for XR devices to utilize such socket may be paired with an internet-of-things (“IoT”) controller integrated with an application and user interface (“UI”) which changes the light settings of the device. As another example, when a particular remotely-located XR device user is considering which port or socket to join as he wants to view a particular building, he may choose the socket which, based upon the meta data, will take him virtually straight into a very well-meshed room with a significant amount of pre-existing data pertaining to all features of the room, in full color. This interaction may require many processes, and the combination of such processes into a tool which a user can use to change their understanding of a perceived world.

[00232] One now may have a fully contextualized and robust digital twin of the physical world. Referring to Figure 44, one process that is of paramount importance to runtime comfort with many XR devices, such as those which feature a head-wearable display component as in the system of Figure 1, is the relatively low-latency determination of head pose, or pose of whatever pertinent system relative to the actual or virtual world (i.e., not all systems have head-wearable XR configurations for the user), with a reasonable level of accuracy. As shown in Figure 44, headpose may be occurring on the device, where there are limited compute resources, but since the pertinent space already has been predefined or pre populated in terms of world reconstruction, such that one may use the permanent, semi permanent, and temporary features already identified and within this classification to identify anchor points, such as superpoints, as described above. Superpoints are computational graphs which may be used to describe a mathematical relationship between specific regions whose properties are related to other features that increase the probability of identification of those regions. Using the superpoints to lock pose varies from conventional pose determination methods. Referring again to Figure 44 pertaining to head pose with head-wearable XR user configuration, the system may be configured to optimize the feature that is tracked for the pose of the head in 6 DOF so that errors propagated from other spaces, or residual fitting errors to the world map, are spatially filtered out of the equation. The system may be configured to conduct pose computation on a local processor, such as a customized ASIC, packaged with the sensor (i.e., camera).

[00233] Pose-related data may be streamed from the user’s XR device, or from other XR devices, to available edge nodes, fog nodes, or to the cloud. As noted above, such

distribution may be configured to only require a small amount of information, and in times where the computational load is low, the device can stream images back to the edge node to ensure that the localization has not drifted.

[00234] In Figure 44 a classic implementation of pose determination is shown. The user’s XR device, which may be configured to be constantly mapping the environment, builds a world map, or assists in building one. Such world map is what the pose is referenced against. A one-dimensional line to represent the sparse points discovered during meshing procedures is shown in Figure 44. This line is then fit with a model in order to simplify the computation, and this allows residuals of the fit, and error propagation to play a significant role in the registration. These errors may cause mi s-regi strati on, scale ambiguity, and jitter which destroy the interaction paradigm because the digital objects conflict with the physical world. The fit model may now be dis-aggregated into reasonable pieces for transport and memory management based on the local scan coming from the device in each space. These dis aggregated models are by definition mi s-regi stered due to the aforementioned residual errors. The amount of mis-registration depends on the global error, as well as the quality of the scan acquiring the geometry and point cloud information.

[00235] The second row in Figure 44 illustrates how during the world reconstruction phase of operation, anchor points, or superpoints, are defined. These anchor points may become the localization tool for all devices across a series of XR devices to localize to the absolute coordinate system. Figure 45 illustrates one implementation for pose estimation using anchor graphs.

[00236] A next element in this implementation of spatial computing is the route taken to render objects to the XR device. Since these devices can have multiple types of operating systems, one may adapt a streaming or Edge rendering protocol configured to take advantage of the spatial nature of the digital world and physical world, with distributed compute resources and various levels of latency, as described above. This being said, generally it is known where the device is in the room based on the pose methodology described above. The room is also known, due to the reconstructed world.

[00237] Edge Rendering may be facilitated by modern connectivity availability and should become more and more prevalent as more and more XR systems become utilized. Remote rendering can be accomplished through many variations of classical render pipelines, but generally will provide more latency than is acceptable in most spatial computing

configurations to effectively communicate the inferred data.

[00238] One method for accomplishing remote rendering for spatial computing systems is to take advantage of conventional rendering and streaming techniques utilized by companies who stream movies or tv shows (i.e., such as Netflix (TM)). In other words, a system may be utilized to implement the current render pipeline on distributed edge / fog / cloud resources, and then take this output, convert the 3D content to 2D video, and stream that to the device.

[00239] Figure 46 shows another embodiment wherein one may take advantage of the adaptive computational capabilities edge / fog / cloud resources to render parallel frames as predictions, and select, at the last moment, the frames that are closest to the actual values. Due to the nature of spatial computing (i.e., that one can detect proximity of pose to rendered content), a system may be configured such that for a given number of frames (such as four, for example) in advance of real-time, the system may render multiple copies based upon the head pose measurement, and content placement in the absolute world. This process may be repeated for a given number of frames, and directly before rendering onto the device, the last pose value from the device may be taken and the model best matching that may have its related frames sent to the device. This allows for the system to have a polynomial prediction for rendering frames into the future where the XR device is predicted to be posed or“looking”.

[00240] As noted above, for the configurations described herein one may take advantage of recent developments in wireless connectivity, including but not limited to WiFi-6, which also may be known as IEEE 802.1 lax standards compliant, or any successor which will be able to effectively transmit the signals to the device.

[00241] One overall schema for rendering on a particular XR device may comprise computing all of the relevant processes in the distributed cloud, streaming the results to the XR device - directly to the frame buffer of said device, and producing imagery on the display for the user.

[00242] The aforementioned superpoint techniques may be utilized in aggregating meshes, or forming geometric relationships between them.

[00243] The physical world is not only an interaction element in spatial computing - it is also one of the primary inputs for the computational architecture. In order for this simplification of data to occur we need to understand the environment in which a user or experience (Location Based Experience LBE) is located in.

[00244] Figure 46 describes that the content provisioning system further includes a rendering function executable by the mobile device processor to connect the mobile device to a plurality of resource devices transmit one or more rendering requests, wherein each resource device receives a respective rendering request, receive, a rendering from each one of the remote devices based on the respective rendering requests; compare the renderings to determine a preferred rendering, and select, with the mobile device communication interface under control of the mobile device processor, the preferred rendering first content transmitted by the first resource device transmitter. The renderings form a system having a polynomial prediction for rendering frames into the future where the mobile device is predicted to be posed or looking.

[00245] Figure 47 shows the required steps to simplify the physical world wherein we use the framework described above at different levels for different processes in spatial computing. The physical world is complex and stochastic, thus the requirement for a dynamic framework for creating an accurate and precise reconstruction of the world that simplifies and infers meaning from a mesh abstraction layer (498). In order to map the physical world for this process one generally prefers hardware that recreates the geometry of the world (500). Prior work on this has proven to be efficient, but fully convolved neural networks have proven to increase the accuracy of this and decrease the computational load. The hardware (502) one may use to recreate the physical world geometrically can include RGB cameras, RGB-D cameras, thermal cameras, Short Wave Infra-Red (SWIR) cameras, Midwave Infra-Red (MWIR) cameras, laser scanning devices, structured light modules, arrays and combinations of these, and procedural recreation and completion. These images, point clouds, and geometric representations of the world may be captured for many different areas and environments with many different devices. They are capable of being stored in various modem image formats, at full image resolutions, sub-sampled, or super-sampled.

[00246] Once one has raw information from the sensor or sensors, either at run-time, or saved and then processed, or some combination thereof, one may find the points of interest. As noted above one may use superpoint techniques (504), which employ a self-supervised interest point detector and descriptor, thus allowing for features of interest to be identified.

[00247] To optimize ingesting or processing data from multiple sources into a single mesh (506) which is the digital representation of the world, one may need to conduct a few back end processes (512, 514, 516, 518). One may be utilized to populate any new area of the world into what may be termed an“Authoritative Intelligent Mesh Server” (or“AIMS”), which also may be termed a“Spatial Atlas”. If data does exist, then one may perform sensor fusion to combine the information into one single mesh. Sensor fusion of this type can be done in traditional methods such as the many variations of Kalman Filters, or we can use Deep Learning techniques to use the found superpoint features of interest and conduct feature level fusion for each one of the sensor types and formats, by using the superpoint fully-convolutional neural network architecture we can create synthetic datasets with each type of sensor and then use that to train each of the individual CNNs. Once the superpoint algorithm has been tuned for each sensor type, a feature level fusion may occur following the general pattern of the image below, where one has implemented a mode-specific neural network.

[00248] Once the unified mesh is calculated we are faced with the challenge of what to do with the mesh. In one framework, one may seek further contextualization, in another the system may be configured to create an intelligent mesh (507). A superpoint intelligent mesh may employ using a superpoint algorithm and taking advantage of the homographic adaption implemented to create an intelligent interpolation of the primary mesh, and adding data points by enabling larger probability of additional features. In order to accomplish this one may follow the same process as with a superpoint feature detector, thereby increasing the training set to include the three dimensional mesh of the 2D shapes in the original superpoint. The reason this may be needed is after the mesh unification is that the same superpoints may not be entirely consistent and one may want all features in the frame to be extracted as the system is going to use them to overlay (508) the texture on the wireframe. A homographic adaptation of the feature plane may result in one set of superpoints, and since the entire map is in 3D space, one can rotate the user perspective as well about the super point along the arc created by the depth from the user to that point to create more perspectives of the features identified by superpoint. We then will use all of the points we create to attach the texture (510) to the surface of the 3D map and pseudo-depth-image.

[00249] Referring to Figures 48-66, various exemplary embodiments are illustrated, featuring various XR devices being utilized in various scenarios. For example, referring to Figure 48, an office environment is illustrated wherein corporate information is aggregated with spatial computing for collaboration, scheduling, and productivity by various users with various XR devices.

[00250] Referring to Figure 49, a XR user is shown being interrupted by a remotely located doctor who was alerted by the XR user’s integrated health sensing capabilities, so that the remote physician can notify the local XR user that he seems to be encountering relatively high cardiovascular stress levels.

[00251] Referring to Figure 50, an XR user is illustrated working with smart appliances and wearable systems which are integrated into a spatial computing paradigm such that analysis may be performed on the health and fitness routines of the user so that suggestions may be made for improvement based upon such data.

[00252] Referring to Figure 51, an illustrated outdoor life scenario is shown, pulling together data from multiple sources so that many users may either physically or virtually experience the same scenario. [00253] Referring to Figure 52, socalled“lifestream” data pertaining to a particular user identifies low blood sugar for a user based upon current activities and previous activities, to include caloric intake, sleep, physical activity, and other factors.

[00254] Referring to Figure 53, various XR users are shown through virtual presence in a common physical space, with spatial computing integration such that they may manipulate physical objects in the common physical space around them, such as chess pieces.

[00255] Referring to Figure 54, a shopping scenario is illustrated, such that users of XR devices are able to compare clothes that they have at home or that are located at some other location with clothes that they are able to visualize in a physical store, and while virtually at the store,“try” clothing items out as their virtual selves in said physical store.

[00256] Referring to Figure 55, an XR user is sitting down to play an actual physical piano and asks for instructions regarding how to play a particular sonata. Information pertaining to execution of the sonata is localized to the appropriate keys of the physical piano to assist the user, and also even advise the user regarding how to improve their playing.

[00257] Referring to Figure 56, a collaboration scenario is illustrated wherein five XR users are able to visualize a virtual home model retrieved from a remote corporate database, they are able to change aspects of the home model at runtime and save these changes on remote computing resources for future use.

[00258] Referring to Figure 57, some XR users are shown trying to find the closest actual public restroom. A regression of their current location information assists the system in determining the location of the closest available restroom, the system may then be configured to provide the users with virtual visual guidance as they walk to said restroom.

[00259] Referring to Figure 58, two XR device users are illustrated in a pre-natal yoga instructor scenario, wherein the instructor, once granted access by the client, can monitor both mother and child vital signs for safety.

[00260] Referring to Figure 59, a connected spatial computing system may harness, subject to appropriate permissions, the data of many interconnected XR users, to assist these users in day to day interactions, by utilizing not only their own data, but the aggregation of all of their data, for example, for traffic and congestion analysis.

[00261] Referring to Figure 60, an XR user with a mobility challenge is shown speaking to her XR device, wherein her XR device is configured to be responsive to spoken commands and queries such that it can return information pertaining to the query, and also preferably assist in controlling and even navigating her mobility assistance devices. In other words, she may ask the spatial computing system to take her to the restroom in an autonomous or semi-autonomous manner, while also preferably avoiding not only structures but also traffic, such as the activity of other people.

[00262] Referring to Figure 61, an XR user visits his primary care physician, and aggregate data since the last visit is discussed and utilized to simulate, and provide for visualization of, different courses of action for the patient. For example, the physician may assist the XR user in understanding what he or she will look like after a knee replacement surgery.

[00263] Referring to Figure 62, an user is illustrated talking through a verbal interface (i.e., not necessarily a visualization XR system, but merely an audio-based spatial computing system), he asks the system regarding specific wine details pertaining to what he is drinking and receives responsive information based upon not only cloud-based internet style information, but also his own particular meta data, such as his own wine interests.

[00264] Referring to Figure 63, spatial computing systems may be utilized for realtime or near-realtime tracking of others, such as children or elderly, by utilizing GPS locator devices (i.e. a small GPS transmitter, generally battery powered and portable, may be coupled to clothing, a backpack, shoes, or the like).

[00265] Referring to Figure 64, multiple XR users are shown engaged in a game of virtual volleyball, such that each user, looking through their XR device, must intersect the virtual ball and impart a virtual force upon the ball based upon the physical pose change and rate of change of their XR device (i.e., they can use their smartphone or tablet has their paddle).

[00266] Referring to Figure 65, two XR users are shown sitting outside in a sculpture garden and wish to know more information regarding a particular sculpture, they can use visual search tools to gather and examine information on the internet using the visualization tools of their XR devices, and may share and/or save their findings.

[00267] Referring to Figure 66, a system may be configured to have an optical system which uses a variety of light relays, (i.e. waveguides,“bird bath”-style optics, volume phase holograms, or the like) to take a stitched-together (i.e., aggregated), time-multiplexed image, and in one configuration display it to the user. This same system may be used to relay the eye information back to a camera where in some instances one may look at gaze vector, foveation, in a manner which is not exclusively dependent upon the user’s pupil diameter. One may create one or more sources of red, green, and, blue light, and reflect, refract, diffract-off-of/or/through a phase modulation device, such as a phase liquid crystal on silicon (“LCOS”, a form a spatial light modulator), or 2D or 3D light valve. Each one of these laser-plus-modulator pairs may be coupled to a scanning or beam forming array of mirrors at which the extent of the field of view may be governed by the entrance (i.e., incident) angle to the system. One embodiment may employ this information to time multiplex a full field of view at a range of framerates to include ones which create a comfortable viewing experience. This time multiplexed image has the capability of being presented to the user at various depths (i.e., perceived focal planes or focal depths).
