VIRTUAL OBJECT DISPLAY ON INTERSECTION OF FIELD OF VIEW - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240233273 titled 'VIRTUAL OBJECT DISPLAY ON INTERSECTION OF FIELD OF VIEW

The abstract describes a method for displaying virtual objects at the intersection of the field of view of multiple users using extended reality devices.

  • Receiving data on the orientation of multiple XR devices.
  • Deriving field of view cones for the primary user and secondary users.
  • Identifying the intersection boundary where the field of view cones overlap.
  • Identifying a portion within the intersection boundary for maximizing 3D dimensions of virtual objects.
  • Predicting the maximized 3D dimensions of the virtual objects.
  • Displaying the virtual objects within the identified portion to the primary user and secondary users.
      1. Potential Applications:

This technology can be applied in collaborative virtual environments, virtual meetings, and shared augmented reality experiences.

      1. Problems Solved:

Original Abstract Submitted

an embodiment for displaying a virtual object on an intersection of a field of view (fov) of multiple users is provided. the embodiment may include receiving data relating to an orientation of a plurality of extended reality (xr) devices. the embodiment may also include deriving a plurality of fov cones of a primary user and at least one secondary user. the embodiment may further include identifying an intersection boundary where the plurality of fov cones at least partially overlap. the embodiment may also include identifying a portion within the intersection boundary where 3d dimensions of one or more virtual objects are able to be maximized. the embodiment may further include predicting the maximized 3d dimensions of the one or more virtual objects. the embodiment may also include displaying, within the identified portion, the one or more virtual objects to the primary user and the at least one secondary user.
