ELECTRONIC DEVICE, METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR DISPLAYING IMAGE CORRESPONDING TO EXTERNAL SPACE ON VIRTUAL SPACE DISPLAYED THROUGH DISPLAY - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240282059 titled 'ELECTRONIC DEVICE, METHOD, AND COMPUTER READABLE STORAGE MEDIUM FOR DISPLAYING IMAGE CORRESPONDING TO EXTERNAL SPACE ON VIRTUAL SPACE DISPLAYED THROUGH DISPLAY
The patent application describes a wearable device that can capture images of the real environment using a camera while displaying a three-dimensional image through a display.
- The processor in the wearable device stores the external image in a separate command buffer in memory, distinct from the display buffer.
- The order among different command buffers is adjusted using depth information to enhance the interconnectivity between real and virtual objects.
- The technology may be used for a metaverse service, leveraging 5G and/or 6G networks for connectivity.
Key Features and Innovation
- Wearable device captures real environment images while displaying 3D images.
- Separate command buffers for external images and 3D images.
- Depth information used to adjust the order of command buffers.

Original Abstract Submitted
one or more of at least one processor of a wearable device is configured to obtain an external image indicating at least a part of real environment around the wearable device using a camera, while displaying a three-dimensional image through a display. one or more of the at least one processor is configured to store the external image in a first command buffer distinct from a display buffer corresponding to the display in a memory. one or more of the at least one processor is configured to adjust an order among the first command buffer, the second command buffer and the third command buffer, using depth information corresponding to the first command buffer, a second command buffer corresponding to the three-dimensional image, and a third command buffer corresponding to a virtual object. this disclosure may be related to a metaverse service to enhance interconnectivity between a real object and a virtual object. for example, the metaverse service may be provided through a network based on fifth generation (5g) and/or sixth generation (6g).
