EXTENDED FIELD-OF-VIEW CAPTURE OF AUGMENTED REALITY EXPERIENCES - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240272432 titled 'EXTENDED FIELD-OF-VIEW CAPTURE OF AUGMENTED REALITY EXPERIENCES

The abstract describes a patent application for capturing augmented reality experiences of a user wearing electronic eyewear with at least one camera on the frame. The camera has a larger field of view than the display of the eyewear, allowing for the application of augmented reality features to the captured scene. A photo or video of the augmented reality scene is captured and displayed in parts as the user moves their head to view different portions of the scene.

  • The patent involves capturing augmented reality experiences of a user wearing electronic eyewear.
  • The camera on the eyewear frame has a larger field of view than the display.
  • Augmented reality features are applied to the captured scene.
  • The photo or video of the scene is displayed in parts as the user moves their head.
  • The technology allows for transferring the captured photo or video to another device for viewing the larger field of view augmented reality image.

Potential Applications: - Gaming and entertainment industries for immersive experiences. - Training and simulation applications for hands-on learning. - Medical field for surgical training and visualization. - Architectural and design industries for virtual walkthroughs. - Tourism and travel for virtual tours of destinations.

Original Abstract Submitted

augmented reality experiences of a user wearing an electronic eyewear device are captured by at least one camera on a frame of the electronic eyewear device, the at least one camera having a field of view that is larger than a field of view of a display of the electronic eyewear device. an augmented reality feature or object is applied to the captured scene. a photo or video of the augmented reality scene is captured and a first portion of the captured photo or video is displayed in the display. the display is adjusted to display a second portion of the captured photo or video with the augmented reality features as the user moves the user's head to view the second portion of the captured photo or video. the captured photo or video may be transferred to another device for viewing the larger field of view augmented reality image.
