METHODS AND SYSTEMS FOR VIRTUAL TRY ON (VTO) PROVIDING AN AUGMENTED REALITY EXPERIENCE

These methods and systems use augmented reality to provide a virtual try-on experience for different products and services, such as makeup or nail colors. The technology integrates with webpages, like ads, to show users how a product will look on them before they try it. By using pre-rendered images and a VTO engine, users can see how the product will look on them in real-time before making a purchase.

COUNTER-AI CAMOUFLAGE

An invention called Counter-AI Camouflage helps hide objects from artificial intelligence (AI) detection systems by creating camouflage patterns. The process involves generating a camouflage image, adjusting the appearance of the target object to match the camouflage image, and training the system to deceive both the AI detection system and a target classifier. This technology aims to provide security and protection by making objects blend in with their surroundings to avoid detection.

HOMOGENEOUS METHOD TO PREPARE SPERM DNA FROM SEXUAL ASSAULT CASES

A method has been developed to extract sperm DNA from swabs taken from sexual assault victims without needing to switch buffers. The victim's non-sperm cells are broken down and dissolved using an enzyme, followed by the addition of another enzyme that breaks down the victim's DNA, leaving only the perpetrator's DNA behind. This process eliminates the need for buffer changes, centrifugation, or filtration steps, making it especially useful in forensic science.

Software Defined Community Cloud

A new way to create software-defined community clouds allows users to request access to specific projects within a cloud network. Each project has its own rules that must be followed, and the system checks if the access requests meet these rules. If a request meets all the requirements, access is granted; if not, access is denied to ensure compliance.
