VIRTUAL PAPER - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18220684 titled 'VIRTUAL PAPER

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a method for combining stereoscopic and conforming virtual content on a bounded surface in a computer-generated reality (CGR) environment.

  • The method involves displaying a bounded surface within the CGR environment, based on specific world coordinates.
  • A first stereoscopic virtual object is displayed within the perimeter of the bounded surface, using different world coordinates.
  • This allows for the intermingling of stereoscopic and conforming virtual content on the same surface.
  • The method can be implemented on a device with processors, memory, and displays.


Original Abstract Submitted

In one embodiment, a method of intermingling stereoscopic and conforming virtual content to a bounded surface is performed at a device that includes one or more processors, non-transitory memory, and one or more displays. The method includes displaying a bounded surface within a native user computer-generated reality (CGR) environment, wherein the bounded surface is displayed based on a first set of world coordinates characterizing the native user CGR environment. The method further includes displaying a first stereoscopic virtual object within a perimeter of a first side of the bounded surface, wherein the first stereoscopic virtual object is displayed in accordance with a second set of world coordinates that is different from the first set of world coordinates characterizing the native user CGR environment.
