METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SIGNALING A USER'S SAFE ZONE FOR 5G AUGMENTED/MIXED REALITY APPLICATIONS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240273803 titled 'METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR SIGNALING A USER'S SAFE ZONE FOR 5G AUGMENTED/MIXED REALITY APPLICATIONS

The abstract describes a method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium for augmented reality (AR) visualization.

  • Determining an available visualization space associated with the AR user device.
  • Signaling parameters indicating dimensions and shape of the available visualization space.
  • Receiving AR media to be rendered based on the available visualization space, including three-dimensional (3D) scenes.
  • Rendering the 3D scenes on the AR user device.

Potential Applications: - Augmented reality gaming - Architectural visualization - Virtual tours and presentations - Industrial design and prototyping - Medical imaging and training simulations

Problems Solved: - Limitations in visualizing AR content in different spaces - Inefficient rendering of AR media on varying devices - Lack of accurate representation of 3D scenes in AR environments

Benefits: - Enhanced user experience with accurate visualization - Improved spatial awareness in AR applications - Customized rendering based on available space dimensions - Seamless integration of AR media in different environments

Commercial Applications: Augmented reality software development for various industries such as gaming, architecture, education, healthcare, and manufacturing.

Questions about AR Visualization: 1. How does the method determine the available visualization space in AR applications? 2. What are the key parameters signaled by the AR user device for rendering AR media accurately?

Frequently Updated Research: Stay updated on advancements in AR visualization technologies, including improvements in rendering techniques, spatial mapping, and user interaction interfaces.


Original Abstract Submitted

a method, apparatus, and non-transitory computer readable medium are provided. the method may include determining, by an augmented reality (ar) enabled user device, an available visualization space associated with the ar user device; and signaling, by the ar user device, one or more parameters that indicate dimensions of the available visualization space. the one or more parameters may indicate a shape of the available visualization space. the method may include receiving, by the ar user device, ar media to be rendered based on the available visualization space, the ar media comprising one or more three-dimensional (3d) scene; and rendering the one or more 3d scene.
