==VISUAL AND AUDIO WAKE COMMANDS - A simplified explanation of the abstract==


This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18367278 titled 'VISUAL AND AUDIO WAKE COMMANDS

==Simplified Explanation==

The abstract describes a gesture-based wake process for an AR system, where a visual wake command triggers the system to wake up and initiate an AR application.

* Hand-tracking input pipeline placed in suspended mode
* Camera component detects possible visual wake command
* System wakes up hand-tracking input pipeline
* Camera component goes into fully operational mode
* AR system verifies visual wake command and initiates AR application

== Potential Applications ==
This technology can be applied in various industries such as gaming, education, training, and healthcare for hands-free interaction with AR systems.

== Problems Solved ==
This innovation solves the problem of seamlessly waking up an AR system using a gesture-based command without the need for physical buttons or voice commands.

== Benefits ==
The benefits of this technology include improved user experience, increased efficiency in interacting with AR systems, and enhanced immersion in AR applications.

== Potential Commercial Applications ==
Potential commercial applications of this technology include AR gaming devices, educational AR tools, AR training simulations, and AR healthcare solutions.

== Possible Prior Art ==
Prior art may include existing gesture-based wake processes for electronic devices, hand-tracking technologies in AR systems, and camera components used for detecting user commands in AR applications.

=== Unanswered Questions ===

=== How does this technology impact user privacy and data security? ===
This article does not address the potential privacy concerns or data security implications of using gesture-based wake commands in AR systems. It would be important to consider how user data is collected, stored, and protected in this context.

=== What are the limitations of using visual wake commands in AR systems? ===
The article does not discuss any limitations or challenges associated with using visual wake commands, such as potential false positives or user fatigue from performing gestures to wake up the system. It would be valuable to explore these aspects further to understand the practical implications of this technology.


==Original Abstract Submitted==

A gesture-based wake process for an AR system is described herein. The AR system places a hand-tracking input pipeline of the AR system in a suspended mode. A camera component of the hand-tracking input pipeline detects a possible visual wake command being made by a user of the AR system. On the basis of detecting the possible visual wake command, the AR system wakes the hand-tracking input pipeline and places the camera component in a fully operational mode. If the AR system, using the hand-tracking input pipeline, verifies the possible visual wake command as an actual wake command, the AR system initiates execution of an AR application.
